5 Best Places to Eat at Universal Studios Florida

Are you visiting Universal Studios Florida and looking for a great meal? In this post I am sharing my picks for the best places to eat at Universal Studios Florida that everyone will love.

We have visited Universal Studios Florida dozens of times and the food at the parks has become a special part of our experience.

All of the Universal Parks from Islands of Adventure to Epic Universe have great places to dine. I share my ultimate list of best places to eat at Universal Orlando that cover our top places across the resort. For today I want to share my picks for where we like to eat at Universal Studios Florida.

Best Places to Eat at Universal Studios Florida

• Minion Cafe
• London Taxi Hut
• Finnegan’s Bar & Grill
• Central Park Crepes
• Bumblebee Man’s Taco Truck

Let’s get into why I love each of these restaurants and always try to include them in my Universal Studios itinerary.

Minion Cafe

Minion’s Cafe is one of my favorite places to eat at Universal Studios because it has such a fun atmosphere. It is bright and colorful, the menu items are unique, and it is overall a fun dining experience.

Minion Cafe is located in Minion Land and has a mobile order window or a sit-down casual dining where guests order from the QR code at their table. No reservations are required.

We have eaten at Minion Cafe twice and each time I fully enjoyed my meal. I have a full review that is worth checking out if you plan on dining there. Read: Review of Minion Cafe at Universal Studios Florida

London Taxi Hut

The London Taxi Hut is a kiosk that specializes in baked potatoes. Not always a great option during a hot and humid Orlando day but it is still high on my list.

On our last summer visit I ordered and then sat in the shade to watch the Blues Brothers Show. There is no seating or mobile order here and you can actually walk by without even noticing it is there.

London Taxi Hut is located in the London area of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Guests will walk by the Knight bus and then it is on your right if you are coming from San Francisco.

My go-to is Jacket Potato with broccoli and cheddar. My husband loves the Shepherd’s pie potato.

Finnegan’s Bar & Grill

Finnegan’s Bar & Grill is the only table service restaurant on my list at Universal Studios Florida. This offers Irish inspired dishes and reservations are recommended. I suggest making them as soon as you know when you want to dine here, usually a few weeks in advance.

The Irish Fish & Chips you can’t go wrong with and we have enjoyed the Shepherd’s Pie as well as the Bangers & Mash. Plus they have a kids menu that offers burgers, chicken tenders, and fruit plates.

Finnegan’s Bar & Grill is closed winter 2026 for refurbishments.

Central Park Crepes

Central Park Crepes is another kiosk that is one of my favorites. It is located in the Hollywood Blvd area of Universal Studios, near the lagoon and across from Mel’s Drive In.

The best part about this place is they have savory and sweet options that are both delicious. They also offer seasonal options. During a summer visit they had a lemon blueberry crepe that was amazing.

There is no seating or mobile order here and give yourself a bit of time if you eat here. They make the crepes to-order so they take a bit of time, but it is well worth it.

Bumblebee Man’s Taco Truck

Bumblebee Man’s Taco Truck is located in Springfield U.S.A. and it is a great spot to get tacos at Universal Studios Florida. They have 3 different taco options: chicken, pork, or beef.

There is not indoor seating or mobile ordering but there are a few areas you can find that offer outdoor seating nearby.

I need to get back to Bumblebee and try it again because on my last visit I got the Korean Beef Tacos but it has sadly been removed from the menu.

Final Thoughts

There are always new menu items to try throughout Universal Studios but these are my go-to options when I visit the park. If you are visiting during Mardi Gras you should also include some of the food booth options. They have many great things to try.

My biggest advice is to include at least one of these places in your day. The food at the parks is as important as the rides and makes for a great Universal Studios experience.
