Disney4me Posted March 17 Report Posted March 17 Picky eaters and Magic Kingdom dining don’t have to be at odds with each other. A Casey’s Corner Picnic We know how stressful it can be to plan a full park day when someone in your group turns their nose up at anything remotely adventurous. The good news is that Magic Kingdom has more crowd-pleasing options than you’d think, and we’re breaking down six spots that are genuinely going to work for even your most particular dining companions. Whether you’re rolling with tiny humans, super-selective adults, or a little bit of both, there’s something here for everyone. Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe and Columbia Harbour House for Chicken Tenders Listen, you really can’t go wrong with a solid chicken tender, and both of these quick service spots have you covered. Chicken Tenders at Cosmic Ray’s Cosmic Ray’s is one of the biggest quick service locations in the park, which can mean shorter waits spread across that multiple bays, and Columbia Harbour House has a surprisingly cozy atmosphere that feels like a nice break from the chaos outside. Chicken Platter at Columbia Harbour House Either way, a basket of chicken tenders is about as universally accepted as it gets. Read Our Latest Review Here Casey’s Corner Corn Dog Nuggets This one’s pretty much a no-brainer. Casey’s Corner Corn Dog Nuggets Corn dog nuggets are the kind of food that’s hard to say no to, and Casey’s Corner has been doing them right for years. They’re snackable, they’re fun, and even the most resistant eaters tend to come around pretty quickly once they smell them. We love you, plastic cheese! Grab some plastic cheese to go with your nuggets and side of fries and you’ve got yourself a meal. Read Our Latest Review Here Plain Buttered Noodles at Tony’s Town Square If you’re traveling with kids who have a very specific short list of acceptable foods (we see you, parents), Tony’s Town Square is actually a solid call. Tony’s Town Square They’ll do plain buttered noodles, which is the kind of flexibility that makes the difference between a great park day and a meltdown at dinnertime. It’s a table service spot, so factor that into your day accordingly. Read Our Latest Review Here Pinocchio Village Haus for Flatbreads and Pasta Flatbread pizza and pasta are two of the most universally beloved food categories on the planet, and Pinocchio’s delivers on both fronts. Jackpot! It’s also one of the more underrated spots in Magic Kingdom, so it doesn’t always have the longest waits. The fact that you can watch the “it’s a small world” boats float by while you eat is just a bonus. Read Our Latest Review Here The Crystal Palace for a Little Bit of Everything Buffets exist for a reason, and that reason is picky eaters. Buffet at Crystal Palace The Crystal Palace is a character dining buffet, so you’re getting a fun experience on top of a spread that has enough variety to satisfy pretty much anyone in the group. It’s one of those options where everyone can find their thing without any negotiating involved. Read Our Latest Review Here Skip Sit-Down Meals Entirely and Go Tapas-Style Honestly, this might be the most underrated strategy for picky eaters at Magic Kingdom. Instead of committing to a full meal, just snack your way around the park. Ham and Gruyere Sandwich Gaston’s Tavern has that iconic giant cinnamon roll and a ham and Gruyere sandwich that’s genuinely delicious. The pizza and cheeseburger spring rolls are always a hit, corn dog nuggets from Casey’s make a great snack-sized stop, and the loaded fries over at Plaza Ice Cream Parlor round things out nicely. Cheeseburger Spring Rolls It’s a choose-your-own-adventure approach to dining that tends to work really well when the group can’t agree on one spot.
