WDW Wrap Up - Food costs

Cost of eating at Walt Disney World

I often hear that it's so expensive to eat at WDW.  Here's a few examples of what we had:

Suzanne's favourite breakfast:  oatmeal $2.79, 

 

One of Mom's and my favourite: Bounty Platter  $8.99

(really feeds 3)  Includes scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, potato casserole, French toast and a buttermilk biscuit

Lunch:  Chilli $3.99, soups $3.29 to $3.99, 

Create your own burger $11.49 (comes with salad or house made fries), 

or

meatball sub $9.69 (includes house made chips or pasta salad or coleslaw)

Dinner:  Poppin Nachoes with cornscoops $6.99 (easily feeds 2), Baked veggie pasts $9.19 (easily feeds 2)

Pot roast with vegetables and potatoes $10.29 (again, will feed 2)

At the sit down restaurants we went to, we paid from $16 to $30 for meals.  The meals are huge enough that if two people agree on what to have, then share!  The Disney owned restaurants have no issue with guests sharing meals.  

The refillable mugs that we purchased for $17 were used...a lot.

Two cups of coffee a morning, iced tea, sodas or lemonade when ever we were back at the resorts made the cost of the mugs a bargain.  When we knew we were going to be checking out a resort that had a quick service, we took the mugs with us so we didn't pay for beverages.
