Disney World resort food courts compared: Pop Century, the All-Stars, Art of Animation and more, dish by dish

Do the Disney World resort food courts have the same menu?

Mostly, yes. We read the menus of all nine value and moderate food courts through Disney's own menu data on 15 September 2026, and 42 dishes appear at six or more of them, almost all at identical prices. The shared core, before tax:

• Chicken strips — $10.99
• Super slice of cheese pizza — $11.29
• Large cheese pizza; large pepperoni — $20.99; $21.99
• Cheeseburger — $13.49 ($12.49 at Caribbean Beach and Port Orleans Riverside)
• Bacon cheeseburger — $14.19
• Mojo-roasted chicken — $15.49
• Waffle, pancake or biscuit bounty platter — $13.29
• Mickey-shaped waffles — $11.29
• Kids' cheeseburger or chicken strips — $8.99
• Disney refillable mug — $22.99

The exception is Coronado Springs. El Mercado de Coronado runs its own shorter menu, where the bacon cheeseburger is $16.50 and there is no pizza or chicken strips.

What does each resort's food court have that the others don't?

The resort's own dishes and desserts are where they differ:

"Its own" means the dish appears at that food court and none of the other eight.

Which food court is the best value?

For the everyday dishes, none: the prices match almost everywhere. The small differences all favour two moderates, Caribbean Beach and Port Orleans Riverside, where the cheeseburger is $12.49 rather than $13.49, and Caribbean Beach's vanilla pancakes are $9.99 rather than $10.49.

The biggest difference is the birthday cake. The Mickey Mouse Celebration Cake, which Disney says feeds four to six, is $45 at Pop Century, Art of Animation and the All-Stars, and $39 at Port Orleans French Quarter, with engraving. For more birthday ideas, see our Disney World birthday guide.

The mug pays back on the fifth drink. A fountain drink or a regular coffee is $4.79 at the food courts, so the mug, at $22.99, covers its cost with five refills. It lasts your stay, up to 14 days, and works at the beverage stations of any Disney-owned resort, but not in the parks.

How did we compare them?

We read the full menus of the nine food courts through Disney's own menu data on 15 September 2026, left out allergy-friendly duplicates, and compared each dish by name. "Shared" means a dish at six or more food courts; "its own" means at one only. Prices are before tax.
