Eating at Magic Kingdom for $35 a Day

Looking for a way to enjoy Disney’s Magic Kingdom on a budget? Want to eat in the park without breaking the bank? Here’s how you can eat at Magic Kingdom at Disney World for $35 a day (or less).

Things to know:

• These prices and scenarios don’t include drinks. Cups of Ice water are free. And, Disney has recently added water-filling stations if you bring your own cup (like a Yeti or Stanley). Adults can also order Kid’s Meals. Those meals come with a small drink which can be a soda, small bottled water, or milk.
• YOU CAN BRING FOOD INTO DISNEY PARKS! Some of these options below include a BYOB (Bring Your Own Breakfast) choice. You can eat granola bars, breakfast bars, fruit, nuts, or anything else you bring with you. I’ve done this a lot, mostly because of food allergies (and I don’t like a big breakfast early in the morning). I’m happy to have a KIND bar and coffee in my room. You can eat in your room or bring your breakfast to the park. You can also bring in snacks to help save money.
• I tried to keep these under $35.00 to accommodate for tax. Some are closer to $35 than others. I made a few scenarios for less than $30.
• You can use THIS POST (The Best Cheap Eats At Magic Kingdom) to come up with your own list that fits in perfectly with your taste (and location in the park during meal time).
