An all-scratch kitchen makes Raglan Road one of my favorites at Disney. But beware, they cannot remove all risk of cross contamination!

If you want an excellent gluten-free meal at Disney Springs, The Polite Pig is an excellent option!

Among all the various locations to eat at Disney Springs is Chicken Guy! It is a restaurant by Chef Guy Fieri, who many will know from his work on Food Network. The restaurant has been open at Disney Springs for quite some time, undergoing many different renovations throughout the years.

In the most recent renovation, the restaurant added a lot of seating outside. Between the outside and inside seating, the experience is much better at Chicken Guy than in years past.

I was thrilled when I read at the bottom of the menu that all chicken items can be ordered grilled and gluten-free, including the buns! This means that most everything on the menu was an option (aside from the typical gluten containing items like pasta.

After some discussion with the nice lady taking my order, I landed on the O.G. Chicken sandwich. In typical fashion at Disney, the gluten-free meal came out separately from a dedicated area of the kitchen. It did take a few extra minutes, but it’s always worth it to know the meal is safe.

The bun has the same consistency and texture as the Udi gluten-free buns. It was extremely soft, but a word of caution. The bun is extremely crumbly. In fact, it was very dry inside apart from the sauce that was on the sandwich. The grilled chicken was excellent. The French fries were excellent and had a very nice seasoning on them.

For a quick meal, this was a good choice at Disney Springs. I would certainly make sure that you have some sort of sauce on the sandwich to help with the bun dryness. You can also get the chicken tenders grilled and gluten-free without the bun if you prefer.

There are numerous options at Disney Springs for someone who is looking for a good meal. One of the quick-service options is D-Luxe Burger. It is open for lunch and dinner, serving gourmet burgers, fries, and milkshakes.

As you can see from the picture, there is often a long line of people waiting outside to order. There is seating available inside and outside along the side of the building. Additional tables are located on either side of the restaurant, but they are not in the covered area with lights. Also, if you go on a cold day, the outside dining along the wall of the restaurant has heat lamps!

The menu for gluten-free options is not as extensive as the main menu. There are several burger options, along with a chicken sandwich, and fries.

I had the classic cheeseburger with some french fries on our visit. The burger came sealed to prevent cross-contamination and separate from other items. The burger and the fries were delicious!

One suggestion to help beat the crowd, mobile order! You don’t have to stand in the line. At your arrival time, they will notify you to come get a pager. You can then get your drinks, condiments, and take a seat. They will bring the food straight to you when it’s ready!

At Disney Springs, there’s a great place called Summer House on the Lake. Summer House is extremely popular and has a beach/outdoor vibe to the entire restaurant. Water is even served from coolers that sit inside the restaurant. While a lot of people want to talk about the food, I want to focus on the cookies!

Summer House is known for their cookie bar. Many people go there for the wide variety of cookies (see below) and the brown butter krispy treats are popular. But those are not gluten-free, which is disappointing. Summer House does not forget about those who do not want gluten, however.

Every day, they have some type of gluten-free dessert. On the day I went, it was their gluten and vegan chocolate chip cookie. I have to be honest, the cookies can become hard if they aren’t as fresh. On this visit, I went earlier in the day and the cookies were super fresh and delicious.

In past visits, long before I started the blog, I have visited and they have had other gluten-free options. Once they had a brownie, but that wasn’t my favorite thing I have ever had here. The brownie was very soft and had an almost overwhelming taste of fudge. It was topped with powdered sugar. While it may have not been my favorite thing, it was far from the worst gluten-free dessert I’ve had.

Summer House is a great place to go, even if just for a cookie! There’s a lot of great dining options here, which I will share more about in the future.

Sprinkles has been at Disney Springs for quite some time. It is not exclusive to Disney Springs, however. They have locations in 7 states and Washington, DC as of this writing. I was introduced to Sprinkles long before I started having to eat gluten-free, visiting their location in New York. Now that I am gluten-free, I am so glad they are around!

Outside the store, and to the right of the main door is a cupcake ATM, where you can walk up and order without going inside the store. Inside, there isn’t much to see. They have self-service kiosks and a nice large menu board. After you order, they call your name to pick up your order at the end. There is a nice seating area outside if you want to eat your goodies while you are there.

On this visit, there were two gluten-free options. In the past, they have had large gluten-free cookies. This time, the cookies were smaller cookie bites. I did not try those on this trip. I had the red velvet cupcake. The menu shares other items, such as vegan or sugar-free. They do not list any other allergens on their main menu.

The cupcake was extremely moist and fresh tasting. It wasn’t too dense, tasting more like a regular cake than some gluten-free cakes that I have had. The icing was delicious. It was sweet, but not overly sweet. It was a great balance.

Sprinkles is another great option for gluten-free sweets at Disney Springs that will certainly hit the spot!

Located in Disney Springs, Erin McKenna’s Bakery is a bakery dedicated to items that are gluten-free. In fact, every item in the bakery is not only gluten-free, but they are vegan, kosher, and dairy, eggs, nuts, and soy.

The bakery has several locations across the country, but this has been in Disney Springs for quite some time. The menu has a lot of great items to choose from, with seasonal items that rotate in from time to time.

Items here may be just a bit more expensive than some other bakeries in town that have gluten-free items, but the guarantee that everything is gluten-free without any risk of cross contamination is definitely worth it. I’ve tried most everything on the menu without disappointment. Here’s a couple of the items from late December 2024.

The crumb cakes, cinnamon rolls, and donuts are delicous as well. The donuts are cake donuts, so the texture is similar to most of the other items in the bakery with a nice glaze on top. If you put the cinnamon roll in a microwave for 10-15 seconds, they soften and are absolutely amazing!

If you are in the are of Disney Springs and want something sweet to eat, Erin McKenna’s Bakery is worth your time!
