Ordering from Kid's Menu

[dmbouton75]

If my daughter, age 10, and my friend's daughter, age 11, cannot find anything they like on the adult menu at a table service restaurant (excluding buffets)--can they order off the kid's menu?

Thank you for any help you can give.

TTFN,
Dawn :xmas:

My wife does (as she's not a big eater) and we've never had a problem

Some of the morality police will attack you for stealing from Disney and breaking the rules and ... in other words, all BS.

If your child wants something from the kid's menu and that portion/item satisfies them, then you order it.

No one will say a thing. No one will think less of you.

Glad to hear we're not the only ones who does that.

We tend to not eat much in the parks, and the kid's meals are superb for that. Besides, with the sides, it's a full meal for $5.

I'm 23, and I have been known to order adult portions of meals on the childrens menu. 10 and 11 year olds may be satisfied with the childrens portion, and that would be fine too.

There should be no problems, kids of all ages can order off the kid's menu.

I have ordered kid's meals before at WDW simply because I can't eat a lot of food at one time and the "adult" meals can be too large for me. (And just a waste of food.)

No worries whatsoever. Order away.

I have a picky 10 year old, we just got back and we had no problem ordering from the childs menu

Thank you to all who replied! I feel better knowing they can order what they want.

Happy Holidays!!!

Look at it this way - Disney would rather have a few less $$ in the till when you order off the Kids menu than no $$ at all when you walk out

My g-ma (75) orders from the kids menus.. no big deal =)

I order from the kids menu if I am not that hungry.

We're all kids at WDW, just tell them that and it'll be ok:wave:

I get weird looks at San Angel Inn when I order from the kids menu (I'm 6'3" and 25 years old). But if they had at least one item on their regular menu that was simple and plain, then it wouldn't be a problem. I love that they try to bring some original and unique dishes there, but would it kill them to have some simple tacos or quesadillas? *End of rant*

I do all the time, especially in the parks, I can only eat so many hamburgers and chicken nuggets, it reeks havoc on my stomach, and so I will get the PB&J off the kids menu.

Or sometimes I'm just not that hungry.


You wont have any problems, in all the years we have been going, no one has ever said a word to us.

LOL! SO true! The kids menu can be a bit more "regular" but still something different especially at places like San Angel Inn.

It isn't a problem at all and most places in Disney will even give you a more adult portion of any item on the kids menu if requested. We run into this problem every trip because my brother is 20 yrs old, but pretty much refuses to eat anything else besides chicken tenders which of course limits our dining options. Most places we went to were able to serve him his chicken tenders no problem.
