Knott's Berry Farm's All Day Dining: Everything You Need to Know

by Theme Park Center July 06, 2023

All Day Dining and Season Dining Plans are some of the most popular add-on options at Knott's Berry Farm.

In this page, we will explain what Knott's Dining Plans are, the different types of Dining Plans available, which restaurants it works for, and if it's worth it.

What is Knott's All-Day Dining Plan?

Knott's All Day Dining Plan is an additional purchase that allows visitors to pay once, and be eligible for an entrée and a side option at different restaurants at the park throughout the day or season.

Visitors can use their All-Day Dining Plan once every 90 minutes at 16 participating locations.

To use a Dining Plan, visitors must also have a valid one-day ticket or a Season Pass.

It's also important to know that Dining Plans are not valid for special events such as Knott's Scary Farm.

Is All Day Dining Worth it?

If you're spending more than 5-6 hours at Knott's and you're planning on grabbing a quick bite to eat while you're there, the All Day Dining plan is absolutely worth it.

Although the All Day Dining Deal makes it easy for visitors to get food quickly while at the park, not all restaurants participate in the Dining Plan.

This means that it'll take some additional planning ahead of time, to figure out which rides you'd like to ride around the time that you anticipate getting hungry, that is close to participating restaurants.

If you're only planning to be at the park for a few hours, the All Day Dining plan may not be worth it to you, due to the 90-minute wait.

If you are only going to be at the park for 2 hours, you'll only be getting 2 meals at maximum, which may not be worth the cost.
