Well, Halloween is officially over and we’re gearing up for the rest of the fall season in Disney World.
Who are we kidding? It’s Christmas in Magic Kingdom already! But that doesn’t mean we’ll be overlooking other holidays because yes, Thanksgiving is still a very popular time to visit Disney World. If you’ve got plans to visit Disney World on Thanksgiving, though, we’ve got some great news: you have lots of dining spots where you can grab Thanksgiving dinner.
If you want to have a traditional Turkey Day dinner in Magic Kingdom, well, look no further than Liberty Tree Tavern and The Diamond Horseshoe, where’s it’s Thanksgiving year-round. You’ll get all-you-care-to-enjoy servings of traditional Thanksgiving food at both locations, with that delicious Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake for dessert. One suggestion, though: make those dining reservations ASAP.
In EPCOT, head to Via Napoli for the Autunno, a fall-inspired pizza with butternut squash, fresh ricotta, fried crispy prosciutto, and arugula that will be available through November 30th. You can get an individual pizza for $25, a large (for 2-3 people) for $42, or a mezzo (serves 3-4 people) for $58.
If you’re visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom or Disney Springs, Rainforest Cafe also offers a Thanksgiving menu on Thanksgiving Day (November 28th). You’ll get to enjoy the traditional Turkey Day foods like turkey, gravy, stuffing, veggies, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and more. The menu is $28.99 for adults and $16.99 for kids.
Summer House on the Lake, which is also located in Disney Springs, is offering a Thanksgiving Day Prix Fixe meal. You’ll get a three-course meal that includes a choice of salad or soup, a Roast Turkey Dinner or Salmon, and Pumpkin Chiffon Pie or Chocolate Cake. The cost is $69.95 per person.
There will be plenty of places in Disney Springs offering Thanksgiving meals. That includes The Edison, which is offering specials just for Thanksgiving Day, including a Thanksgiving Turkey dinner with Roasted heritage turkey, herbed stuffing, dreamy mash, house gravy, and green bean casserole for $39 ($18 for kids). You can also order Pumpkin Cheesecake for dessert for $15. Fall-themed cocktails are also available.
Earl of Sandwich, also in Disney Springs, is bringing back the Holiday Turkey Sandwich with turkey, cornbread stuffing, gravy, cranberrry sauce, and mayonnaise for $9.49. This is one of our faves!
Raglan Road will also have a special menu on November 28th to enjoy a classic Irish Thanksgiving feast, including Butter and Herb Roasted Turkey, Sausage Meat Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes, Honey Glazed Carrots, Cranberry Sauce, and more. The menu is $39.99 for adults and $19.99 for children.
Paddlefish will host a traditional turkey dinner on Thanksgiving Day. The meal will include herb-roasted turkey breast, andouille cornbread stuffing, whipped potatoes, green beans, cranberry relish, and pan gravy. The meal is $32 for adults and $12 for children.
You can get a special Thanksgiving dinner at Terralina Crafted Italian, too. The menu includes Rosemary Roasted Turkey with Applewood Smoked Bacon and Granny Smith Apple Stuffing, Yukon Gold Mash, Roasted Asparagus with a Sage and Thyme Gravy, and Homemade Cranberry Relish. The meal is $32 per adult and $12 per child.
Don’t want to miss Thanksgiving Day football but still want a traditional meal? Head on over to City Works Eatery and Pour House, where you can enjoy Thanksgiving Day-specific menu items like Herb-Roasted Turkey and a variety of fall-themed cocktails.
A Turkey Dinner Menu will be available at T-Rex, including Roasted Turkey, Turkey Gravy, Stuffing, Green Beans & Mushrooms, Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Cranberry Sauce, and Pumpkin Pie. The meal is $30.99 for adults and $16.99 for kids.
If you’re staying at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, you can get a special Thanksgiving menu on Thanksgiving Day at Whispering Canyon Cafe. You can choose from two skillets, a Thanksgiving Skillet with oak-smoked turkey, slow-smoked pulled pork, Western-style sausages, maple-chipotle pork ribs, cornbread stuffing, sautéed green beans, giblet gravy, cranberry relish, buttered corn and smashed Yukon potatoes or a Plant-Based Skillet with maple-chipotle barbecued jackfruit, spicy ‘sausage,’ mustard-glazed beefless tips, herb-brushed Trick’n Chick’n, roasted potatoes, oven-roasted carrots, sautéed green beans and charred peppers.
For those at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Steakhouse 71 will be serving modified breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus on Thanksgiving Day, featuring select items from the dinner menu and some holiday-inspired dishes. The regular menu will not be available on that day.

Those who cannot get a reservation or prefer a lower cost for the meal should explore the food courts at the resorts. The turkey is basically the same as served at many sit-down places, very good, and even though it may be served on a paper plate, you’ll still get turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and a veggie like green beans or corn. Have a fun seasonal dessert and a cocktail or glass of wine and it will still be festive.
