Disney World officially costs more than ever before. Shocker, right?! Well, don’t fret. We are here to help!
Disney World does annual price increases in October. And this year was no different. We saw prices increase on tickets, food, drinks, and even annual passes. But you’re in luck. Even though prices have gone up a bit, we have done our due diligence by being in the parks every single day. So, we’ve done the hard work for you and have put together a list of what it’s going to cost you to eat three meals per day at Disney World next year. That way, you know what to save and you know what your food budget needs to look like! Let’s get into it!
For this example, I’m going to be pricing out meals for a party of two on a 5-day vacation. They’ll have three meals per day, including breakfast at a quick-service restaurant, lunch at a budget-friendly table-service location, and a “fancier” dinner. We’ll take a look at a day at each Disney World theme park and Disney Springs.
Magic Kingdom
Starting with breakfast in Magic Kingdom, we’re going to head over to Fantasyland to Gaston’s Tavern, and you already know what we’re going to get. We’re grabbing the Warm Cinnamon Roll for $7.99, which is absolutely enough to feed two people! We’re also going to grab a LeFou’s Brew for $6.99 and a Joffrey’s Cold Brew Coffee for $6.29 for our drinks. And don’t forget to add an extra cup of icing for $1! This brings our breakfast total to $22.27 before tax.
For lunch, we’re going to grab Casey’s Corner on Main Street, U.S.A. One person is going to opt for the Chili-Cheese All-Beef Hot Dog for $13.49 while the other is going to get the Mini Corn Dogs for $11.99. Both of these entrees come with a side of fries, but no drink, so we’re going to add two fountain drinks for $5.99 each. And, of course, you’re going to want a side of cheese sauce, so we’re going to grab two of those for $1 each. After tax, the total for lunch will be $41.18.
And we’re headed back into Fantasyland for dinner at Be Our Guest Restaurant. This dinner is a prix-fixe price of $72 per person and comes with your choice of one appetizer, one entree, and one dessert. We’re also going to add the Roses and Rhubarb specialty cocktail for $20 and a Stella Artois Lager for $11. Before tax and gratuity, the dinner total is $175.

The Final Cost
Let’s add up the cost of each park and tally up the total at the very end. At Magic Kingdom, the total for three meals is $238.45. For three meals at EPCOT, the total came to $261.69. At Hollywood Studios, the total for three meals is $264.39. Animal Kingdom’s total came to $260.50 for three meals. And finally, the cost for three meals at Disney Springs totaled $262.73. This brings our grand total for the week to $1,267.76. Keep in mind that not all of these prices include tip and gratuities.
And, of course, you don’t have to go to the restaurants I mentioned above — there are SO many other great restaurants around the property. These are just some of the most popular foods and restaurants on property. And we will say, most prices will be comparable to the ones listed above!
Honestly, it can be extremely hard to narrow down where to go, but don’t worry, our Guide to Disney World Dining pulls it all together so you can stop stressing and focus on the fun without feeling like you’re missing a thing!
While this may be a lot of food for two people on a 5-day vacation and you may just want to snack around the parks, this shows the average cost of three meals per day on a Disney World vacation. Looking to save a little money? We suggest buying discounted gift cards from places like Sam’s Club or Target — that’s an easy way to both budget and save!
