I am convinced that that the All Day Dining Deal at Busch Gardens is a great way to save money and make a trip to the park so  much better.

Last week I took two of my kids to Busch Gardens along with my brother’s family. My sister in law, the Happy Housewife, suggested I buy the All Day Dining Deal to save money on food throughout the park. And she was so right. (And that’s her photo up there, too… Thanks, Toni!!)

With the All Day Dining Deal, you get  one main dish, one side or dessert and one non-alcoholic drink (including bottled water) each time you pass through the line at participating restaurants throughout Busch Gardens.

Yep, you can get those items each time you pass through the line, so don’t worry about not getting enough food. If you want more, just go back.

This means that when you are finished eating and your 10 year old wants a cookie, you can say “Sure, go get yourself a cookie and a bottle of water,” and then he can do it. No worry about cost. No worry about giving him money to deal with. No need for you to go back in line with him. He can go get that cookie and another bottle of water (or whatever).

The restaurants that offer this are all over the park and offer great food… and a lot of it. Plus, there are tons of healthy options including salads and generous servings of fruit alongside the french fries and other dishes.

So how much does it cost?

The All Day Dining Deal at Busch Gardens is $16.99 per person for children 3-9 and $32.99 for anyone older than that. Yes, that is all you pay all day for unlimited food and drink… I think we made it up in just bottled water alone throughout the hot day! And, when I bought my park tickets last week online, the All Day Dining Deal was included in my park tickets, so eating was FREE for us that day.

PSSST: If you’re on the tram in the parking lot right now, yes, you can but your tickets online with your smartphone and just show the barcode at the kiosks to get your wristbands and paper tickets. That’s what I did to get the deal!!

For our family this was a no-brainer and a great way to eat and drink at the park. Has anyone else used the All Day Dining Deal at Busch Gardens? What did you think?

    my family went to Busch Gardens in 2012, during our 3 week holiday we went there 4 times, on 3 of our visits we bought the Meal Deal, it does make the day out much more enjoyable, the restaurants serve decent food, the choices are varied, what was also ideal, if you wanted just a drink or snack, you could just go into a participating restaurant and pick your items.
    This year we’ll be returning to Orlando, Busch Gardens is our no.1 park, we’ll also be buying the meal deal again

  3. Nice! We’re planning to do the same when visiting. The only thing that I am a little bit afraid of are the queues in the Restaurants. We will be there in July, means lots of people :)
