Hollywood & Vine offers an all you can eat character buffet with several gluten-free options. But I would recommend you skip it and go elsewhere.

Hollywood Studios Backlot Express
Recently, my family and I decided to stop by Hollywood Studios for a quick visit. It was a Friday night and most of the sit-down restaurants were already taken for the evening. So we quickly decided to enjoy some quick service from Disney!
Our decision led us to Backlot Express. I quickly pulled out my phone and started going through the Disney app to locate the gluten-free menu items at this location. When I came to the allergen menu, my attention was drawn to the Smoked BBQ Pulled Pork burger!
This burger is an angus burger that is topped with smoked pulled pork, american cheese, cole slaw, and a house-made barbecue sauce that gives it a sweet but tangy flavor. The burger came with a side of fries that were from the dedicated fryer, so there were no concerns about cross contamination.

So I have to preface this by saying that you always have to keep in mind that the quick-service dining at Disney is theme park food. It is far from the sit down dining experiences that you can have. That said, the burger was the typical Disney burger, which is not as bad as one might think. I think Disney has done a great job delivering a quality burger for a theme park. The BBQ on top was not my favorite, as I don’t prefer the sweet taste, but it paired well with the cole slaw and the entire sandwich. Here’s a picture of the side of the burger, giving you a better look at the inside.

Again, this is not going to amaze you compared to some of the other Disney flavors that exist, but it’s an excellent choice when you need something quick at Hollywood Studios!
