11 Cheapest Restaurants at Walt Disney World
Let’s face facts. You want to spend your hard-earned vacation money on merchandise, not meals or restaurants you probably won’t remember in a month.
Inflation is real, especially in the restaurant industry. As a result, Disney has raised the prices of many menu items to account for rising food costs.

Thankfully, several eateries remain eerily affordable. You can dine at these places for $15 per person or less.
That’s like Arby’s pricing, only you don’t have to choke down Arby’s food!

Here are 11 of the cheapest restaurants at Walt Disney World.
Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza
This place counts as an oddity on the list. Odds are good that you’ve got a Blaze Pizza in your area or at least have eaten at one.

LeBron James famously chose to throw his weight behind Blaze rather than McDonald’s. As a result, his $1 million investment ballooned to a worth of $40 million.
LeBron’s getting rich because people love these pizzas, which allow you to pick your own ingredients and then eat them five minutes later.

A build-your-own pizza at the Blaze at Disney Springs costs $10.45 plus tax. I think that’s actually cheaper than what we pay here!
BoardWalk Deli
Here’s the newest Walt Disney World restaurant. Disney has already posted the menu, and it comes with some eye-popping prices.
Usually, when I say that, I mean that your wallet is about to cry. But, this time, I mean it as a massive positive.
BoardWalk Deli will sell Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Tomato-Basil Soup for $9.99.
When was the last time you ordered an entrée for less than $10 at Disney? No, EPCOT festival food booths don’t count.
Casey’s Corner
People sometimes grouse whenever Casey’s Corner increases its prices. I have to laugh when that happens because it’s patently absurd.

We are in the second half of 2022, a post-pandemic era where food costs have soared everywhere.
As of today, Casey’s Corner still sells an All-Beef Hot Dog for $9.99…and it includes a side of fries or an orange!

The beloved Corn Dog Nuggets, the delectables that inspire poetry, are only thirty cents more at $10.29.
Chicken Guy!
Here, let me keep this one simple. A Five Tender Combo at Chicken Guy! costs $13.49 plus tax.
I paid more than that for the same order at Buffalo Wild Wings last night…and I wasn’t at Disney.
Plus, Chicken Guy! offers a comically large number of pairing sauces. So you can mix and match to your heart’s delight.

Don’t let the stereotypical media perception of Guy Fieri fool you. This place is great for foodies!
Columbia Harbour House
Ordinarily, when I hear the words “cheap seafood,” I automatically connect them with “stomach pump.”
Columbia Harbour House defies that instinct, though. This place has remained a Magic institution since the early 1970s.
The prices seem 1970s-ish, too. Okay, more like the late 1990s…but they’re still inexpensive!
You can order the famous Sea Captain Catch for just $13.29. Also, if you don’t like seafood – that’s me! – the Chicken Strips are only $10.29.
Earl of Sandwich
Come on, you knew this one had to be on the list. This place is an institution at Disney Springs and Downtown Disney.
In fact, Downtown Disney officials just cannot kill this thing, no matter how many times they say they will. It keeps coming back.
Fans demand that these sandwiches remain a part of their lunch and dinner plans, which is totally understandable.

Entrees at Earl of Sandwich start at $7.49. You won’t find any sandwich on the menu listed for more than $8.99, and you can turn them into combos for just $3.99 more.
This place is the college student ramen noodles diet of Disney Springs.

Regal Eagle Smokehouse
Flame Tree BBQ at Disney’s Animal Kingdom would have been my suggestion for years. However, the tide has turned.
Regal Eagle Smokehouse at the World Showcase serves decadent BBQ dishes at affordable prices.
Even the Memphis Dry-rub Pork Ribs, the most expensive entrée on the menu, max out at $16.29.
A Pork Butt Platter – yes, that’s really its name – costs only $12.99. I don’t think you could beat that price at Famous Dave’s.
Ronto Roasters
I make a lot of jokes about what a ronto is and why it’s ethically okay for me to eat one. Since this is a Star Wars place, I presume it has something to do with The Force.
Anyway, whatever a ronto is, you can eat one in a wrap for $12.99. This action may make you a monster, but horse meat is a delicacy in some parts of the world.

So, earthlings shouldn’t be so judge-y about this stuff, right? But, of course, if you want to be a decent Jedi, you could pick the plant-based Zuchii Wrap for $11.99.
That’s what Yoda would do. Or, in Star Wars speak, do that, Yoda would.

Sommerfest
I’ll level with you. I’ve never eaten here. My ancestry is decidedly German, but I’m not much for sauerkraut or spaetzle…or beer, for that matter. So how am I even German?
Anyway, my identity crisis aside, Sommerfest serves one dish, which means you KNOW it’s a great one.

Fans of Bratwurst flock to this place to pay $10.79 for the entrée and then an extra $70 on beers. Hey, it’s the World Showcase. People imbibe.
Woody’s Lunch Box
This restaurant serves the legendary Grilled Three-Cheese Sandwich, which is legitimately one of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth.
Somehow, the cost for this delicacy has held steady at $9.99. For another $3.49, you can add Potato Barrels, which are just tater tots by another name.
That’s…a lot for tater tots, but it’s a quibble since the meal will bring life to your palate for a measly $13.48.

For another $4.29, you can perfect the meal with a Lunch Box Tart, an elevated Pop-Tart.
Overall, this meal will be about the best $18 you have ever spent on anything.

Via Napoli
Okay, this is the only Table Service restaurant I’ve listed. However, there’s a thought process behind its inclusion.
At Via Napoli, guests can order the Quattro Formaggi Pizza – Large for $40. Yes, that’s a lot more than other prices on this list.
Photo: Disney
However, we’re talking about a better class of pizza than you’ll find at Blaze. Also, four people can eat that Via Napoli pizza and feel stuff for the rest of the day.
These things are comically large…but they’re not even the biggest ones. That would be the Mezzo Metro, which looks like a sci-fi monster pizza due to its size.

A large party can come to Via Napoli, split one of these, and everyone will leave happy. Also, you’ll spend $10 or less per pizza for your slices of the pie!
