If you’re anything like us then your palate can’t wait to try new foods. Honestly, half of the Disney fun is trying new treats and food while you’re there. We have put together this list of Top Quick-Service Restaurants in Magic Kingdom, and believe us, you won’t regret anywhere you choose. There is just so much that you sometimes can’t get at home. Check it out for yourself.
1 – Columbia Harbour House

When it’s time to eat and we’re inside the Magic Kingdom, Columbia Harbour House is always one of the first places that come to mind. —This quick-service restaurant favorite will satisfy the seafood-lovers taste buds while offering many options for Vegetarians as well. The quality of food that you get for the price you pay is overall a very good value.
Some of the go-to’s here are the Grilled Salmon and the Lobster Roll. However, there are some great options for people who don’t enjoy seafood as well such as the Grilled Chicken Salad and the Chicken Tenders. They also have great choices for kids like chicken nuggets and mac & cheese.
Columbia Harbour House is also a great place to get out of the sun and cool off. They have indoor seating with options downstairs or upstairs. They serve lunch and dinner.

People love the toppings bar offered here. It is a great way to add a little more flavor to whatever entre you decide to go with. You get the unlimited toppings bar with no extra charge, adding great value for what you pay. Also, outdoor and indoor seating are both available.

3 – Be Our Guest Restaurant

One of the most sought after dinner reservations in all of Walt Disney World, Be Our Guest, can be found inside Beast’s Enchanted Castle located in Fantasyland. While we don’t think the food is of the best quality, we must admit, Disney went all out on the theming here. You’ll either be dining in the elegant Ball Room, Art Gallery, or the forbidden West Wing.
The restaurant serves a hybrid of American and French cuisine. Don’t forget to try the Gray Stuff, it’s delicious! Breakfast and lunch are available as a quick service option, but when dinner time rolls around the restaurant turns into a table service location.
Automated touch screens are available to place your order on and make customizations to your meal as you wish. The food will be brought to your table, unlike most quick-service restaurants in Magic Kingdom. Cashiers are also on-hand to take your order.
Be Our Guest is one of the only quick-service restaurants in Magic Kingdom that allows you to make reservations. You’re able to make reservations up to 180 days in advance, so be sure to make them as early as you can.

4 – Casey’s Corner
If you’re a fan of trying new things then Casey’s Corner is the place to be. This quick-service restaurant is constantly tweaking the menu. With many great hot dog and fry combinations to choose from, you can’t go wrong.
Here they offer All-Beef Hot Dogs, Corn Dogs and Plant-Based Dogs for all your taste buds to enjoy. You can choose from a variety that are topped with tons of different options such as mac and cheese, chili-cheese, pickled slaw and more. Also, Casey’s usually has a “limited time” dog to choose from. Currently on the menu is “Fried Pickle Hot Diggity Dog,” available in foot-long or regular size, along with “Fried Pickle Loaded French Fries.” These are all topped with roasted green and red peppers, shredded cheddar, fried pickles, chipotle ranch, and green onions. Talk about mouth-watering?
Casey’s Corner is located at the end of Main Street. This baseball park themed restaurant has cast members dressed in baseball caps and uniforms to match. We like to grab our food from the counter then head out to the lawn in front of the castle to sit and enjoy the meal. Also, a great option while waiting for the nighttime fireworks.

This quick-service stop is a great option if you’re looking to grab something quick yet delicious. They’re open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Theming is spot on here as it feels like you’re on the set for the film Beauty and the Beast, where Gaston celebrates just how awesome he really is. #humblebrag
The food choices here are on the lighter side, but also very tasty. They serve sandwiches with chips, vegetable cups with dip, hummus with chips, macaroons, warm cinnamon rolls, and other delightful bites. The restaurant has a signature non-alcoholic beverage called LeFou’s Brew. It’s frozen apple juice, blended with a bit of toasted marshmallow, topped off with passion fruit, mango foam.
6 – Sleepy Hollow Inn
Looking for a light meal or “brunch” type? This may be the place for you. With specialities such as a fresh fruit waffle sandwich, sweet and spicy chicken and waffles and funnel cakes this is sure to satisfy your sweet and savoury tooth. With food prices ranging from $5.79 to $10.99, these are really affordable choices.
Here you can also grab a hand-battered corn dog and house-made chips and finish with a vanilla ice cream churro sandwich. Iced coffee and hot tea also make a great choice. What more could you ask for?
7 – Main Street Bakery – Starbucks
If you love coffee then this is the place to be. Personally, we like to come in and grab a drink and snack to-go right before the nighttime fireworks in Magic Kingdom. Main Street Bakery has every drink a normal Starbucks would have, but they also carry some specific desserts that you can only find here and holiday drinks depending on the time of year.
One of our favorite snacks, if not our all-time favorite, was found here – The Iridescent Mermaid Cupcake. You can also find sandwich and chip options along with many other decorated cupcakes and brownies. We have also seen Darth Vader and Olaf inspired cupcakes which are tasty as well as Instagram-worthy. Which as we all know, that’s what it’s all about anyway. Another great option is La Boulange™ pastry items.
8 – Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe
A great lunch option for families is Cosmic Ray’s which is located in Tomorrowland of Magic Kingdom. Cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches, salads and even a Plant-based Vegan sloppy joe for the adults, Uncrustables, mac and cheese and more for the kids. Plenty of options to choose from with prices ranging from $6.49 – $13.49. Also, don’t forget a classic s’more and specialty slushy for dessert.

Lunch and dinner are both served here. Hours do vary seasonally. The restaurant closes down early and it becomes a dessert party for the fireworks. There’s only outdoor seating available here, but it is under cover.

If you’re looking to carb load, then this is the place to go. The Friar’s Nook in Fantasy Land is known for their loaded buffalo tots, but they also have some other options like hot dogs, deep-fried twinkies, and slushies as well. This location only has outdoor seating available.
13 – The Lunching Pad
This quick-service stop can be found in the middle of Tomorrowland. Hot dogs, sandwiches, pretzels, churros, and frozen drinks are served here. Only outdoor seating is available. If you’re looking for a meal and not just a snack, we recommend going somewhere else.
