2025 Thanksgiving Menus at Disney’s Resort Hotels (Table Service Restaurants)
Thanksgiving week is a popular time to visit Walt Disney World. That means crowds galore, and even though you don’t have to worry about cooking, you still have to decide whether or not to enjoy a traditional holiday meal. Thankfully, a couple of table service locations offer specialty items. So for 2025, we’ve created a list of the Thanksgiving menus at Disney’s Resort Hotels.
Below, you can scroll through the list of menus or select the restaurant in the table to preview its menu. If you’re looking for quick-service restaurants, you’ll likely have several options. Unfortunately, the quick service menus are not usually available until the holiday (or right before). So if you’re looking for an idea of what the quick services might have, you can review last year’s menu guide here. (I literally went through every quick service menu after our family’s Thanksgiving lunch last year to provide an idea of what’s available.) Okay, with that out of the way, here are the table service menus at the hotels.
Steakhouse 71 at Disney’s Contemporary
Steakhouse 71 will offer a special Thanksgiving Day meal on Thursday, November 27, 2025. The breakfast menu will be served from 7:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Then, select items from the dinner menu, along with some holiday-inspired dishes, will be available from noon to 9:15 p.m.

*Note that Steakhouse 71 will not offer the regular lunch menu on Thanksgiving Day.

Disney’s Swan And Dolphin Resorts (Multiple Locations)
- Garden Grove (This location will offer a special Thanksgiving buffet in 2025. View the Menu PDF.)
- Il Mulino, Todd English’s bluezoo, Rosa Mexicano, and Amare will all have special menu items for Thanksgiving.
- The Fountain and Cabana Beach Bar and Grill will have a special holiday-inspired turkey sandwich on their menu for Thanksgiving.
What About Dining at the Parks?
If you’re visiting Magic Kingdom, you might enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving meal (served daily) at Liberty Tree Tavern. If you cannot secure a reservation for this popular dining establishment, try next door at The Diamond Horseshoe. (They offer an identical menu.)
*Also note that numerous locations at Disney Springs will offer a special Thanksgiving menu or dedicated holiday items in addition to their menu.
What’s Changed?
The only difference we’ve noted from last year is the addition of Olivia’s Cafe at Disney’s Old Key West Resort and the removal of Boatwright’s Dining Hall at Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside. That doesn’t necessarily mean that other restaurants won’t offer a special menu item. That said, as of publish time, these are the only locations that have listed a holiday meal.
