Disney Springs
Most Disney Springs restaurants are run by outside companies, not Disney. Each one sets its own allergy rules. Ask about fryers and prep every time.
- Erin McKenna's Bakery NYC (The Landing). The only fully gluten-free kitchen on Disney property. Everything is gluten-free and vegan.
- The BOATHOUSE (The Landing). A full dedicated gluten-free menu, including burgers on gluten-free buns. Fries come from a dedicated gluten-free fryer. It has a strong celiac reputation.
- Raglan Road and Cookes of Dublin (The Landing). Fish and chips, onion rings and chicken in a gluten-free champagne batter. The fryer is dedicated, but guests report it shares an oil filter with the regular fryers. Celiac guests should ask.
- D-Luxe Burger (Town Center). Burgers on a gluten-free or lettuce bun. Fries are reported to come from a dedicated fryer.
- Frontera Cocina (Town Center). Tacos and entrees from the gluten-free menu. A long-time favorite of celiac diners.
- The Polite Pig (Town Center). Chicken, brisket, ribs and salmon from the gluten-free menu.
- Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza (Town Center). Has a gluten-free crust, but no separate prep area. Not recommended for celiac guests.
Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill closed for good on September 13, 2026.
Getting back to your hotel: since June 28, 2026, the buses and boats from Disney Springs to the resort hotels only take guests staying at a Disney resort or holding a dining or experience reservation there. Staying off property? Book the reservation first or drive.
Resort hotels
Every Disney resort food court can make gluten-free Mickey waffles and chicken strips. At the counter, ask a Cast Member to call the chef out and order with them, even if you started a mobile order.
Value and moderate resorts
- Pop Century. At Everything POP, chefs come out to take allergy orders. Packaged Erin McKenna's brownie cupcakes are in the market.
- Art of Animation. Landscape of Flavors has waffles, chicken strips and entrees from the allergy menu.
- Caribbean Beach. Centertown Market has fish tacos and a pina colada shake.
- Port Orleans French Quarter. Gluten-free beignets at Scat Cat's Club Cafe. They are not on the menu, so ask. Scat Cat's closed for refurbishment on October 6, 2026, with the cafe expected back in December 2026.
- Riviera. Gluten-free waffles at the Topolino's Terrace character breakfast. Guests report a dedicated waffle iron.
Deluxe resorts
- Polynesian Village. 'Ohana breakfast has gluten-free waffles and a family-style platter.
- Animal Kingdom Lodge. Sanaa has gluten-free naan with the bread service. At Boma, ask the chef to plate food fresh from the kitchen.
- Beach Club. At Cape May Cafe, ask the chef to walk you through the buffet line.
- Grand Floridian. The Grand Floridian Cafe has an allergy menu. It was scheduled to reopen in October 2026 after a refresh, so confirm before you book.
Disney Lakeshore Lodge opens near Magic Kingdom in summer 2027 with three new restaurants. Allergy menus are not out yet.
Pick your hotel with breakfast in mind
Breakfast is the meal you eat at your hotel most mornings. If gluten-free waffles matter to your family, Riviera, the Polynesian and any resort with a food court that calls out the chef make mornings easy.
