amusementparkhero2 1

With the right preparation, it’s absolutely possible for food allergy families to visit amusement parks. Guests with food allergies are protected under ADA regulations and may even be eligible for accommodations. Some parks explicitly allow people with food allergies to bring in outside food, but there are some parks that go the extra mile for food allergy families.

From big names like Disney to independent parks tucked away in the Midwest, we gathered the spots Spokin users love the most. So before you plan your next adventure, check out our list of the 17 most food-allergy friendly theme and water parks.

10. Legoland

Location: Carlsbad, California
Allergen Information

“This was FANTASTIC for allergies! When you walk into the park, they have a dining map that also lists places that are safe for your allergies! I was able to find a nice restaurant within the park that could safely accommodate both of my kids’ allergies, including mustard! The staff at different restaurants within the park were also so nice and provided me with their food binder that listed every item’s ingredient lists! I would definitely return to Legoland-Carlsbad!!! Great job to them and their allergy policies!”
