The Best Place to Eat in Magic Kingdom Is Hidden

From the bread pudding at ‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to the incredible theming of Be Our Guest, there is so much delicious food to treat yourself to on your next visit to the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida

In Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and Disney Springs, Disney has a huge selection of quick-service and sit-down restaurants for families to enjoy on their magical Disney vacation.

And Guests don’t have to go to a fancy sit-down to have an amazing dining experience at Disney. With food carts, booths, and quick-service offerings across the theme parks, we’re always spoiled for choice on a Park day.

But once we have our Mickey Premium Bar, funnel cake from Sleepy Hollow, or burger and fries – where do we go to eat?

Well, we’ll let you in on the hidden-away seating that Disney doesn’t talk about.

It’s not on the maps, and it’s not well advertised, but Magic Kingdom has a cute little nook hidden away that we think is the perfect place to sit and eat your lunch.

Located next to the Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Liberty Square, the table and chairs are on their own and tucked away from the chaos of the Park.

Alongside an old carriage, the table has amazing views of any character cavalcade or parade that goes past Cinderella Castle, has the amazing smell of the Christmas store permeating the pace, and also has no one else around!

Even if you’ve brought your own packed lunch, children will love to climb onto the vehicle while you get some quiet time to eat and enjoy some good old people watching.

With crowds increasing and capacity limits loosening, many Disney Guests are struggling to get those coveted reservations at the most popular restaurants on property.

So, what better way to enjoy some cheaper food than getting your own private little area at Disney’s Magic Kingdom for free!

There are also more benches and seating located around the back of Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe that can also give families a break from the overstimulation of Disney’s Magic Kingdom theme park!

From the iconic Mickey Premium Bar to the refreshing Dole Whip, there’s always a treat around the corner at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme parks, and Disneyland Resort.

And next time you need to find somewhere to sit in peace, head to Liberty Square!
