2023 Dates
For the optimal dining experience at Disneyland, my top recommendation is to have an early dinner at any of the quick-service restaurants that offer regular allergy menus. To avoid the crowds, take advantage of the convenient mobile ordering feature. This not only ensures your safety but also allows you to savor your meal without any worries. Keep in mind that gluten-free options for seasonal themed food at Disneyland are usually limited, so opting for quick-service restaurants with established allergy menus is your safest bet.
Now, let's talk about the candy on the treat trails. The good news is that the majority of the candy is gluten-free. However, please note that you won't have the opportunity to handpick your treats. The Cast members will kindly grab two pieces and place them in your bag. Additionally, you may come across non-candy alternatives like grapes, sliced apples, carrots, stickers, and sometimes even pirate's booty snacks. My suggestion is to take some time after the event to sort through your candy and donate any unwanted treats to someone else. Trust me, you won't want to miss the treat trails as they offer fantastic character interactions and often give you the chance to meet rare characters who rarely make appearances.

- Eat Dinner Early (like around 5pm, mobile order if you can)
- Most of the Specialty Treats & Halloween Themed Food is NOT Gluten Free
