Celebrating Christmas at Disney World is one of the most magical experiences, and you don’t need to bring anything from home to make it happen. Disney supplies the trees, ornaments, wreaths, and more, but wait. What about Christmas dinner?
The Patriot’s Platter
If your family is anything like mine, Christmas dinner is important. Some of us look forward to it all year round and have certain requirements that we can’t live without (cough, cough, mashed potatoes). Lucky for you, Disney has tons of dinners all across the property, and we’re sharing some of them with you here so you can still have your traditional Christmas dinner.
Before we get too into it, we have a master list of where you can find holiday-style dinners during Christmas. We update this regularly when dinners are announced, so make sure you check it out! You’ll also want to snag a reservation for these spots because they’re going to be busy.
FULL LIST OF CHRISTMAS DINNER ACROSS DISNEY WORLD
Let’s talk about Magic Kingdom first. There are quite a few places that you can eat classic food, and then hop outside to watch Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, too.
Liberty Tree Tavern
That turkey, though
All year round, you can grab Thanksgiving food at this Liberty Square restaurant. It’s all-you-care-to-enjoy, so you can grab seconds or thirds of all of your favorites. There are items like pot toast, turkey breast, pork, mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, mac and cheese, and stuffing.
The Diamond Horseshoe
Food at Diamond Horseshoe in Magic Kingdom
Another Liberty Square spot that has it all year round! It’s also all-you-care-to-enjoy and has a very similar menu to Liberty Tree Tavern.
Plaza Restaurant
The Plaza Restaurant
There’s a special holiday-season menu available through January 3rd. You can grab favorites like Holiday Beef Pot Roast, Holiday Turkey Meatloaf, Pistachio and Cherry Cheesecake, and Holiday Cosmopolitan.
Now onto EPCOT! You can dine at the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, where there are food booths set up for different holiday traditions, which is a fun twist on the classics. There’s a restaurant that has a more classic menu, too.
Garden Grill
Garden Grill
At Garden Grill, you can grab traditional holiday-style items in all-you-care-to-enjoy style all year round. It’s also a character dining meal where you can meet Pluto, Mickey, and Chip ‘n Dale, for even more holiday fun. There are items like roasted chicken, mac and cheese, and creamy mashed potatoes.
Let’s head to Hollywood Studios!
Hollywood & Vine
You’ll get to see Mickey in his holiday outfit!
At Hollywood & Vine, you can head to the buffet to try carved turkey breast, mashed potatoes, cornbread stuffing, gravy, and cranberry orange relish. The best part is that it’s a character dining experience where the characters are in their holiday attire. So fun!
In the past, we’ve found that many Disney World table-service restaurants offer a turkey or pork entrée on Christmas Day, even if it’s not officially listed on the menu, so don’t forget to ask. There are also some holiday dinners at the resorts, which you can check out here.
In the meantime, make sure you keep following Disney Food Blog for more!
