Thanksgiving Dinner at Disney World 2026: Every Restaurant, Menu and Price

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, 2026, and you can eat a proper turkey dinner at Walt Disney World. What you will not find is one official Disney Thanksgiving feast, or a list of menus from Disney. The dinners come from four places: two Disney restaurants that serve turkey with the trimmings every day of the year, Disney buffets and resort restaurants that add Thanksgiving dishes on the day without announcing them, the independently run restaurants at Disney Springs, and the hotels on Disney property that Disney does not operate.

Below is every Thanksgiving dinner we could confirm for 2026, with its menu and price, followed by the Disney restaurants that have added turkey on past Thanksgivings and the years they did. There is also a count of what was bookable: for a party of four at dinner time, Thanksgiving has fewer than half the open tables of a normal Thursday, and Liberty Tree Tavern has none.

Where can you eat Thanksgiving dinner at Disney World?

The short version, by what you want:

One thing to know before you plan around a Disney-run restaurant: as of November 10, Disney has not posted a Thanksgiving Day menu for any restaurant it operates itself, in the parks or at its resort hotels. We read Disney's menu page for each one. That does not mean those restaurants serve nothing special. Many add turkey and the trimmings on the day and never post it, and the section below lists which ones have. The dated, priced 2026 menus so far are all at Disney Springs and the non-Disney hotels.

Turkey dinners inside the parks

Two park restaurants serve a Thanksgiving-style meal every day, so their "Thanksgiving menu" is simply the regular one.

Liberty Tree Tavern, Magic Kingdom. The all-you-care-to-enjoy Patriot's Platter is roasted turkey, pot roast and smoked pork loin with mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, herbed stuffing and macaroni and cheese, brought to the table family-style. It starts with a salad and ends with toffee cake. $45 per adult and $24 per child, plus tax and gratuity, at lunch and dinner. This is the traditional choice and the tightest table we saw for the day. More on that below.

Garden Grill, EPCOT. The Chip 'n' Dale Harvest Feast includes rotisserie-roasted turkey with pan gravy, served family-style while the characters come to your table. $62 per adult and $43 per child (ages 3 to 9) at lunch and dinner.

Chef Mickey's, Contemporary Resort. Not in a park, but worth including. The dinner buffet's carving station lists herb-roasted turkey alongside New York strip loin. $72 per adult and $46 per child at dinner.

Two things that have changed, so you don't plan around them:

• The Diamond Horseshoe is not serving its turkey feast. Since October 4, 2026 it has been a lounge with a small-plates menu. Disney's own page for it says the family-style Thanksgiving dinner items are available at Liberty Tree Tavern.
• Tiffins and Tusker House have nothing posted for 2026. Both had Thanksgiving dishes in 2021 and 2022: see the buffet table below for Tusker House.

Thanksgiving dinner at Disney Springs: 2026 menus and prices

Disney Springs has the most Thanksgiving dinners and the most open tables. You don't need a park ticket. The last column is how many reservation times were open for a party of four on Thanksgiving Day when we checked on November 10.

Prices are before tax and gratuity. "Reported" means the details come from 2026 press coverage and are not on the restaurant's own site, so confirm when you book. Rainforest Cafe at Disney's Animal Kingdom serves the same $30.99 dinner and had 33 times open for four.

What to know about these:

• Most are an addition, not a replacement. House of Blues, City Works, Summer House, Jaleo, The Boathouse and Raglan Road all say the regular menu is available too, which helps if not everyone at the table wants turkey.
• Most are Thanksgiving Day only. STK is the exception: its turkey dinner runs November 12 to 29 at participating locations.
• Summer House runs 11 AM to 11 PM, and Raglan Road has its turkey menu from 11 AM to close with live Irish music from 4:30 PM.
• Several also take reservations outside Disney's site, on OpenTable or by phone. If Disney shows nothing, check the restaurant directly.
• Planet Hollywood, Wine Bar George, Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill, Frontera Cocina and Maria & Enzo's had no Thanksgiving menu posted when we checked.

Disney resort and buffet Thanksgiving menus: what past years show

Disney's own restaurants are the hard part to plan, because Disney rarely publishes their Thanksgiving menus ahead of time. Its last full restaurant-by-restaurant list was for 2022. Since then it has announced a few resort menus close to the day, and the buffets have simply put turkey out. A Disney planning panelist said in September 2026 that these menus are not typically publicized in advance.

So this section is about pattern, not promises. Each entry gives the years we found it reported. Nothing here is confirmed for 2026.

Buffets that have added turkey and the trimmings

These keep their regular buffet and add Thanksgiving dishes to it. The last column is reservation times open for a party of four on Thanksgiving Day when we checked on November 10.

Boma is the one we can vouch for first-hand. Joe Riley, who founded PixieWire, eats there with his family on Thanksgiving and has found carved turkey and sides on the buffet alongside everything it normally serves, which makes it a good choice when half the table wants a traditional plate and the other half does not. Its regular dinner price on Disney's menu is $58 per adult.

Resort restaurants with a Thanksgiving menu most years

Whispering Canyon is the strongest pattern on property: four of the last five Thanksgivings, the same price two years running. If Disney repeats it, that is a full Thanksgiving meal at a Disney resort for under $50.

In 2022, the last year Disney published a full list, the signature restaurants had a turkey entree too: California Grill, Citricos, Jiko, Yachtsman Steakhouse, Flying Fish, Topolino's Terrace, Tiffins, The Hollywood Brown Derby, Le Cellier, Coral Reef and Trattoria al Forno. We found nothing dated for those since, so do not count on it.

The resort food court Thanksgiving plate

Disney resort food courts have sold a one-day Thanksgiving dinner at the counter: roasted turkey, cornbread stuffing, mashed potatoes with gravy, vegetables and cranberry relish. It was $15.49 in both 2022 and 2024, with a kids' version at $9.49 in 2024, at food courts including the All-Star resorts, Pop Century, Art of Animation, Port Orleans, the Contemporary and the Polynesian. The Mara at Animal Kingdom Lodge had its own turkey dinner at $16.99 in 2024. Disney had not confirmed it for 2026 when we checked, and those menus usually appear only on the day or just before.

How to plan around a menu Disney has not posted

1. Book the table now. The reservation is the scarce part. The turkey gets added whether or not you knew about it.
2. Check Disney's menu page for the restaurant the week of Thanksgiving, and ask when you check in.
3. Hold a confirmed fallback at Disney Springs if a traditional plate matters to everyone at the table.

If the restaurant you want shows nothing, set an alert on it. Boma, Whispering Canyon, Cape May Cafe and Chef Mickey's all had cancellations reopen in the week before we checked.

Swan and Dolphin, Four Seasons and Waldorf Astoria

These hotels are on Disney property but run their own restaurants, and all of them have published 2026 Thanksgiving menus.

Garden Grove at $39.99 is the least expensive Thanksgiving buffet we found. The Swan and Dolphin have not published its hours, so call before you go.

Four Swan and Dolphin restaurants have a turkey dish on a 2026 Thanksgiving specials menu, with no prices published: Il Mulino (turkey ballotine), Todd English's bluezoo (turkey roulade), Amare (turkey breast Milanese) and Bourbon Steak (turkey roulade and turkey pot pie). Amare, Il Mulino and bluezoo all had tables for four when we checked.

How hard is it to get a table on Thanksgiving?

Harder than a normal day, by a lot. This is from our own availability tracking on November 10, 2026 at about 11:00 AM Eastern, across the 100 Walt Disney World restaurants we watch, for a party of four.

Dinner on Thanksgiving has 56% fewer open times than the Thursday before, at about half as many restaurants. Thirty of the 100 restaurants had nothing open for four at any hour.

Thanksgiving tables with nothing open

When we checked, these had no reservation times open for a party of four at any time on Thanksgiving Day:

• Liberty Tree Tavern, also nothing for two, and not one reopening in the past week
• Garden Grill
• Chef Mickey's
• 'Ohana
• 1900 Park Fare
• Cape May Cafe

Close behind: The Crystal Palace and Cinderella's Royal Table had three times each, and Tusker House had ten, two of them at dinner.

Tables do come back

In the seven days before our check, 400 reservation times for a party of four reopened for Thanksgiving Day, at 71 different restaurants. People cancel as their plans firm up.

How long they last depends on the restaurant. Across all of them, about 3 in 10 of the reopened times that got taken were gone within 30 minutes. At the tables people actually want, it was faster:

"Typically" is the midpoint for parties of two and four combined: half of that restaurant's reopened times were taken faster than this.

How to still get a Thanksgiving reservation

1. Book something today. Reservations opened 60 days ahead, so everything for November 26 is already on sale. Hold a table you would be happy with, then try to improve it. House of Blues and Terralina are wide open.
2. Eat early or late. For four people, 361 of the day's 1,124 open times were between 4:00 and 8:30 PM. The other two thirds were at lunch, mid-afternoon or late evening.
3. Change the party size. Some restaurants that show nothing for four have tables for two, and the reverse. A group of six can split across two tables.
4. Check the restaurant directly for the Disney Springs and hotel restaurants that also book through OpenTable or by phone.
5. Know the cancellation rules before you hold more than one table. They are in our Disney dining cancellation policy guide.

The booking rules in full are in our Disney World dining reservations guide.

Watching Liberty Tree Tavern or Garden Grill

A table at either one will come from someone else's cancellation, and those last minutes. You can set a PixieWire alert from any restaurant page linked in this guide: choose the date, party size and the hours you can eat, and you get a message when a table appears, with the link to book it at Disney. One alert is $4.99, and a pass covers a whole list of restaurants; either way it is a single payment. Selling those alerts is how PixieWire pays for itself. The menus and counts here are free.

No reservation? Turkey to go and at the counter

• Chef Art Smith's Homecomin' to-go dinner. A Thanksgiving dinner for four to take away: smoked turkey with gravy, cornbread stuffing with andouille, mashed potatoes, green beans, cheddar biscuits and Hummingbird Cake. $223.65 including tax, ordered ahead, picked up Tuesday November 24 or Wednesday November 25. Good if your room or villa has a kitchen.

• Earl of Sandwich Holiday Turkey Sandwich. Turkey, cornbread stuffing, cranberry sauce and gravy, at Disney Springs through January 8. No reservation.

Thanksgiving in Walt Disney World: park hours on the day

Disney's calendar for Thursday, November 26, checked November 10. Hours can change.

Animal Kingdom closes at 6:00 PM, so a Thanksgiving dinner there means an early one. Our park hours page has the current times.

The day after Thanksgiving

Staying on for Christmas? Our Christmas at Disney World 2026 guide maps every event in all four parks. The holiday season at EPCOT starts the next evening. The Candlelight Processional opens Friday, November 27, and its dining packages are close to sold out for the first month. Our Candlelight Processional 2026 guide has the narrators, the prices and which nights still have seats. At Magic Kingdom, Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party runs on November 24, 25 and 27 that week, all sold out, with tickets left for three nights in December. For every show you can guarantee with a meal, see Disney World dining packages.

Where these menus and numbers come from

• Park hours: Disney's calendar for November 26, read November 10, 2026.
• Menus and prices: each restaurant's own Thanksgiving page or menu where it has one. Where the only source was a listing site, the menu line names it.
• Hotels Disney does not run: the Swan and Dolphin holiday dining page, and the Four Seasons and Waldorf Astoria announcements.
• Open tables, and how quickly returned tables go: PixieWire's availability tracking on November 10, explained on our how we measure availability page.

Disney-run resort restaurants post their Thanksgiving menus last, usually in the two weeks before. We re-read them in the weeks of November 16 and November 23.
