Disneyland parks are wonderful for gluten free eating! However, it can be difficult to know where to go. The Disneyland app is very helpful but you have to open each menu to find what you are looking for and not every place has gluten free options. It is still a good idea to ask questions about how they handle their gluten free foods, but often they will tell you before you have a chance to ask.

Here is what I found on the California Adventure side at Disneyland.

FYI: there are Turkey carts and fruit carts, just like on the Disneyland side. Often there are gluten items in the same case, but they are careful with handling. Use your best judgement in whether you feel this is safe for you. *California Adventure isn’t as good at marking their menus with gluten free options.
