Anyone know if there are any Restraunts in Disneyland that are Gluten free or allergy friendly?

I am on a strict, gluten free, soy free, corn free, and dairy free diet. strictly for the last 3 days and not sick for 3 days.

However I am planning a trip to Disneyland soon and want to be able to eat.. I can bring the enjoy life brand snack bars for a snack. but they don't let real food into the park, so i can't like make a sandwhich and bring it with me.

So i was wondering if anyone knew if Disneyland was allergy friendly???

Hi.

I've gone many times to DisneyWorld, and every restaurant within the parks and downtown Disney accommodates food for any kind of allergies. I believe is the same for any Disney park.

Call them and they help you with anything that you want.

Have fun

Best regards

Call Disneyland - and ask for "Chef Chris"...we talked to him directly before we went - and he is great. Any chefs at the Disneyland park will help you out. They deal with very sick kids who visit the park via the Make a Wish foundation, cancer kids who come on dream flights...

they will help you :)

Its the one place we have been since 2003 where we were away from home, felt safe with the food, didnt have to explain celiac etc. Even the buffets are set up to avoid cc - fruits on separate table / breads separate from potatoes, eggs..... etc-they request you use a clean plate at each section.

Kids were healthy and happy the whole time!

We went 2 years ago - so if chef Chris isnt there - someone else will be! They have a "master chef" and then chefs at all Disney restaurants - Even pizza places have chef who will whip up some rice pasta :)

Apparantly WDW has been onto the gluten-free thing for awhile.

You might visit this place for feedback from folks who've done it gluten-free.

I'm going in July, and wondered the same thing.

As others have responded, they are very accomodating. You also should have no trouble bringing your own food in. We went a year ago (pre-gluten free) and brought in a soft-sided cooler full of food each day (water, lunch and snacks). Security checks bags that are brought in before you can enter the park and we never had food confiscated. The cooler fit nicely under the rented stroller too. :)

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I don't know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.

My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!
