A lot of what you’ll see on Universal’s menu is considered “Gluten-Sensitive” which I feel is their way of saying, “We’re trying, but we make no promises.” STRUGGLE! As someone who has several gluten-free and Celiac friends this can be a bit confusing, but I feel very sure that these are the best options.
You can, and should, always ask before ordering any items to ensure they’re safe and solid.
Theme Park Bites does not have the full menu for Universal Orlando as of yet, however, you can find the menu for most of the available locations on the official Universal Studios website.

Did you know that there are websites that offer articles/blog posts regarding gluten-free options around Universal Orlando? I’ve laid out some of the few that I thought erred on the side of being in-depth and offered more than just a few items to try. You can find that list below. ↴

Bon Appetit!
Now, this will be an ever-changing list as the parks change up their menus and I learn new things, but this is a pretty good start, right? I hope so! ? But as of right now, there are a few food stands that I haven’t gotten around to, but this extensive list should help.
As you explore the parks, of course I’m sure you’ll stress what meals are actually gluten-free so I don’t want to come across as patronizing, but if you’re ever in doubt – ask! If there is any incorrect information on this list PLEASE let me know in the comments.
And if you haven’t as of yet, please follow us on our other social media channels (YouTube, Instagram & Tik Tok – @themeparkbites) to stay up to date on food reviews. Thank you for allowing us to be your tasty theme park companion!
