What better way to celebrate Thanksgiving than with a turkey dinner at Disney World? Our frog squad has so much to be thankful for this year. We've had so many ribbiting adventures in the parks and we truly enjoy sharing our Disney tips with all of you. Thank you, frog friends! Thanksgiving is pretty low-key at Disney, and the parks will already be decking the halls for the holidays. However, this doesn't mean you can't savor a delicious Thanksgiving feast at Disney World or enjoy themed treats!
Where to Find Thanksgiving Dinner at Disney World 2025
While only a handful of restaurants have reservations still available for Thanksgiving dinner at Disney World, there are often more options for lunch. If you can't snag an Advance Dining Reservation, don't fret! Keep trying in the days leading up to your visit, especially the two or three days before Thanksgiving Day. Cancellations do hoppen! Even if they don't, you can check for a restaurant's walk-up availability using the My Disney Experience app. My Disney Experience is also where you can place a Mobile Order at select quick-service restaurants. And remember: To dine at a table-service restaurant inside of a theme park, you need both valid park admission and a Disney Park Pass reservation (if needed) for the same park, on the same day. To dine at a resort hotel restaurant, you'll need to show your reservation to park at the resort.
Below is a list of restaurants serving up special Thanksgiving-style deliciousness, as well as some restaurants with regular menus perfect for a froggy family dinner. We also listed any special seasonal items offered only during Thanksgiving! You can also check My Disney Experience when you go to book a reservation, as Thanksgiving offerings will be listed on the menu if a restaurant is offering any. Enough jabbering. Let's talk turkey!

Magic Kingdom will surely be a very popular park on Thanksgiving Day, so you'll want to plan ahead.
