Comprehensive Guide to Finding Kosher Meals at Disney Parks in Florida and California
Traveling kosher at Disney Parks is still not a seamless experience, but thanks to the variety of kosher meal options available at both Walt Disney World in Florida and Disneyland in California, it could be a lot worse. With a little planning, visitors can enjoy meals that meet kosher dietary standards while exploring the magic of Disney.
Kosher Dining at Walt Disney World (Orlando, Florida)
Walt Disney World in Orlando offers kosher meals through Borenstein Caterer, Inc., located in Jamaica, NY, under the supervision of the Orthodox Union (OU). These meals are Cholov Yisroel (dairy) and Pas Yisroel (breads), ensuring adherence to kosher standards. Meals are prepared airplane-style: steamed, double-wrapped, and served with utensils.
Pro Tip: Due to high demand during peak times like Yeshiva Week or Sukkot, kosher meals may take 20–60 minutes to prepare. For the most seamless experience, make advance dining reservations and notify Disney’s Special Diets team at least 72 hours before your visit by emailing [email protected] or calling 407-824-5967.
