Best Vegetarian Disneyland Food
Here are my favorite best vegetarian Disneyland food items that include some fan favorites at Disneyland and som hidden gems.
Three-Cheese Monte Cristo at Cafe Orleans
Blue Bayou has also been known to accommodate vegetarians by substituting cheese from their Monte Cristo sandwich as well! But if you want a guarantee, for a cheaper price, then stop by Cafe Orleans to try the Three-Cheese Monte Cristo. I’ve had it just recently on our last visit and it was delicious. You can find Cafe Orleans in New Orleans Square in Disneyland.
Veggie Burger at Carnation Cafe
This is by far one of my favorite vegetarian burgers I’ve ever had. I’ve had it several times during our visits to Disneyland and it remains one of my favorites! For vegetarians, you can add cheese if you like! You can find Carnation Cafe on Main Street in Disneyland.
Dole Whip from Tiki Juice Bar
The famous Dole Whip is a favorite for many park guests! You can find the Tiki Juice Bar in Adventureland in Disneyland.
Breakfast Buffet at the Plaza Inn
One of my favorite character dining experiences is Minnie and Friends at the Plaza Inn. You get to see the largest variety of characters out of all the dining meals and the ambiance can’t be beat. The breakfast buffets that Disney puts out are always vegetarian-friendly with plenty of options for everyone. You can find the Plaza Inn on Main Street in Disneyland.
Pixar Pier Frosty Parfait from Adorable Snowman Frosted Treats
This option over at California Adventure has become a guest favorite from the instant it opened. Be sure to go early in the day to avoid a line. Nothing says vacation like dessert for breakfast! You can find the Adorable Snowman Frosted Treats right after the entrance to Pixar Pier.
Potato Skins at Lamplight Lounge
This is one of my favorite things to eat in California Adventure- it was just that good. Lamplight Lounge is an extremely popular restaurant so make sure to book your reservation in advance. I definitely recommend the Potato Skins for vegetarians and carnivores alike! You can find the Lamplight Lounge to the right after the entrance to Pixar Pier.
Churros and Pretzels with Cheese from the Snack Carts
Churros and Mickey Mouse pretzels always are a top part of any best Disneyland food list even for vegetarians! My son and I are both vegetarians and I love that we have these options scattered across both parks if we need a snack. It’s good to know where the quick vegetarian options are along with the restaurants!
Cheddar Cheese Stick at Corn Dog Castle
Sadly, there are no tofu corndogs (yet, ahem Disney) for us vegetarians to enjoy at the snack carts but Corn Dog Castle in California Adventure offers a cheddar cheese “corn dog.” The same hand-dipped batter is used but the filling is just cheddar cheese. This is a nice way to enjoy the hand-dipped batter even if you don’t eat meat!
Vegetarian Pasta at Blue Bayou
I get this every time we enjoy the Blue Bayou Dining Package for Fantasmic! and it’s always fantastic. I just mark on my dining reservation that I have dietary restrictions and the chef comes out and asks me what I would like. You can add as many veggies as you like too depending on your preference. You can find the Blue Bayou in New Orleans Square in Disneyland.
