UPDATED December 26, 2024

Christmas Day is Thursday, December 25, 2025. If you’re celebrating the holiday season in Disney World, you can still enjoy a traditional holiday feast even if you’re away from home! After all, even Santa doesn’t live on cookies and milk alone…

Here we have gathered a list of restaurants where you can find a meal with the trimmings on the BIG HOLIDAY! Select restaurants on our list serve holiday-style meals either year-’round or throughout the holiday season. However, as more restaurants announce any special menus they may be serving specifically on Christmas Day 2024, we’re adding to this list… so check back often as you make your Disney World holiday plans!

And remember — Advance Dining Reservations are always highly recommended for Table Service meals in Disney World, but that is ESPECIALLY true for any major holidays. 

Magic Kingdom

Liberty Tree Tavern — Year-Round

You can get a Thanksgiving-inspired meal at Magic Kingdom’s Liberty Tree Tavern year-round. It’s a mainstay for a lot of folks visiting Magic Kingdom during this time of year, and for good reason. Oh, and did we mention it’s all-you-care-to-enjoy? Just like going back for seconds at home.

The menu features items like pot roast, roasted turkey breast, oven-roasted pork, mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, mac & cheese, and herb stuffing. There are even options for special diets like plant-based, gluten-, and dairy-free eaters. Don’t skip dessert either — that Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake is one of our favorite desserts in Magic Kingdom!

The Diamond Horseshoe — Year-Round

Just steps away, you’ll find The Diamond Horseshoe, which features a similar menu to Liberty Tree Tavern under a different name — the Frontier Feast. It’s also all-you-care-to-enjoy and has the same items you’ll find at Liberty Tree Tavern.

Even though Disney World — and Magic Kingdom especially — can be seriously busy on Christmas, having two options for the traditional turkey day meal in this park is a game changer!

EPCOT

Garden Grill — Year-Round

This EPCOT spot focuses on comfort food, which means you can find a lot of traditional holiday-style items on this all-you-care-to-enjoy menu. And the best part? It’s a CHARACTER MEAL featuring Chip ‘n Dale along with Pluto and Mickey Mouse, so you get to celebrate with some of the most popular Disney pals!

The family-style feast comes with a salad, grilled beef, and a berry shortcake for dessert, but you’ll also get some additional eats alongside those items. Barbecue roasted chicken, macaroni & cheese, seasonal vegetables, and creamy mashed potatoes will all be brought to your table as well.

EPCOT Candlelight Processional Dining Package

I want to stress that the meals available through an EPCOT Candlelight Processional Dining Package are NOT necessarily traditional holiday meals in terms of cuisine. However, these popular Dining Packages provide guests with a breakfast, lunch or dinner meal at select Epcot restaurants and guaranteed seating to the popular EPCOT Candlelight Processional holiday spectacular held at 5PM, 6:45PM and 8:15PM.  

You can learn all of the details about the EPCOT Candlelight Processional Dining Package here.

Hollywood Studios

Hollywood & Vine

Starting November, you can celebrate the winter holidays alongside Minnie and her friends at Minnie’s Holiday Dine!

This buffet has included often offerings such as carved herb-roasted turkey breast with garlic redskin mashed potatoes, cornbread stuffing, sautéed green beans, turkey gravy, and cranberry orange relish. And Minnie, Mickey, Goofy, and Pluto will visit your table in their HOLIDAY BEST while you dine!

Also note that in past years, we’ve found that many of Disney’s World’s table service restaurants will offer at least some form of turkey or pork entree on Christmas Day, even if they don’t announce it ahead of time.
