The Dino Diner in Dinoland, U.S.A. at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is a trailer-turned-restaurant that serves up carnival-inspired bites! This quick-service features delicious Churros, Corn Chip Pies, and Dino-Rama Chili Cheese Dogs! We’ve enjoyed this spot, especially during Animal Kingdom’s Tasting Sampler and Christmastime!

The Dino Diner is back!
It’s been a while since we’ve been able to eat at this spot, but with its return on July 4th, we’re able to finally get a look at the reopened quick-service spot! Let’s check it out!
Atmosphere
We patiently waited for Dino Diner to open this morning. But we have to say, we think the Dino looks happy to be open again! He’s READY to serve up some snacks to Disney World guests again!

Waiting for it to open
We took some time to peruse the posted menus. There’s a selection of hot dogs, including the Dino-Rama Chili-Cheese Dog. But there’s also a Corn Chip Pie and Churros, as well as a small selection of non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages.

Menus
Plastic silverware, napkins, and condiments are laid out nearby. These are the packets of condiments, rather than the self-serve condiments we’ve seen returning to some Disney World dining locations.

Condiments
Tables with umbrellas are set up just outside the diner for guests to have a nice place to sit and eat their snacks.

Seating
When it was time to order, the Cast Members inside greeted us warmly!

Cast Members are the best!
The Cast Members were super excited for Dino Diner to be open again!

So, of course, we ordered some food!
