PDF dining menus?

[PurpleRose]

Does anyone know if or where I can download a pdf file for dining menus? I'm elbows deep in planning and getting reservations in order but dh would prefer looking at the menus in pdf format to help me chose the reservations instead of going to the website or cut and paste in e-mail (lazy man)

Can anyone help me out?

Oddly, I never saw links to them on the Disney site, but if you google (e.g. "Sanaa menu") you'll often see a link for one. Weird.

allears.net has menus.

Yes, but not PDFs. Text only in a less than stellar formatting.

Don't have PDF's, but I do have a funny story relating.

When I was a junior in high school three years ago, my physics teacher found out I was going to WDW over Christmas break, and told me he was planning a summer trip for his family. He asked me to do him the favor of getting an idea of meal costs without a dining plan in the parks so that he could do the math and determine if the meal plan would be advantageous for his family. Being the overachieving brown-noser that I was, I did him one better and "borrowed" the laminated menus they now have at Cosmic Ray's, Pecos Bill's, Casey's, The Plaza, Columbia Harbour, and Pinocchio Haus!!! They made the trip home with me and needless to say, he was floored! I told him that it was now his responsibility to return them to their rightful places upon his trip a few months later, and sure enough he did just that!

Many of the restaurant pages on the offical site have menu links on them now. The link should be to the left of the header image. See an example screenshot below.

They used to link to the PDFs from there, but it looks like many now go to text based links. Not sure if this was a permanent change, or something they did just to put in the higher seasonal prices.

I think that's what must be happening right now. The links all go to normal pages (perhaps for SEO and accessibility reasons). The PDF links in search engines must be a "leftover."

Yeah, since the most recent web-page redesign they got rid of the pdf files and went with the new versions. (with drop-down boxes to switch between Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner menus, etc)

I kinda preferred the pdf menus because I could save it and email it to friends when trying to select restaurants for the trip.

As suggested by others, I've found that doing a Google search of something like "Sanaa menu pdf" will get you the still-exiting pdf files on the WDW website.

EDIT: Since the UK version of the WDW site hasn't gone through the same re-design, you can find them through there.

I saved PDF's from all the restaurants onto my ipad right off the official Disney World website. It was super easy!

Interesting... Go to the Disney site via this link to browse dining establishments - and many have the direct PDF links. Looks like the old version of the site, running in parallel.
