Options for Guests with Food Allergies

Crepes des Chefs de France offers a limited menu, and while they strive to accommodate guests with food allergies, options can be somewhat restricted. Here are some considerations:

1. Gluten/Wheat Allergy:

• Unfortunately, traditional crepes contain wheat. Guests with gluten or wheat allergies might need to skip this kiosk or inquire if they have gluten-free crepe options available (though not always guaranteed).

Nut Allergy:

• Avoid the Nutella Crepe as it contains hazelnuts.
• The other crepes generally do not contain nuts, but cross-contamination is possible. Always inform the staff of your allergy to ensure safe preparation.

Dairy Allergy:

• Most crepes contain butter and dairy. It’s essential to check with the staff if they can accommodate a dairy-free option, though it may be limited.
• The Ice Cream Crepe and Ham & Cheese Crepe should be avoided due to their high dairy content.

Egg Allergy:

• Crepes traditionally contain eggs. Guests with egg allergies will likely find it challenging to find suitable options here.

Soy Allergy:

• Soy is less commonly found in crepe ingredients, but it’s still important to check with the staff regarding the specific ingredients and potential cross-contamination.

General Tips for Allergies at Disney World

• Inform the Cast Members: Always notify the staff of any food allergies. Disney is known for accommodating dietary needs and has protocols to ensure guest safety.
• Check Ingredients: Disney often has ingredient lists available for their menu items, so ask for these when in doubt.
• Special Requests: If visiting during less busy times, you may find the staff more able to accommodate special dietary requests or make modifications to the menu items.

Overall, Crepes des Chefs de France offers delicious crepes that delight many guests, but those with food allergies should approach with caution and always communicate their dietary needs to ensure a safe dining experience.
