Would not return or recommend! Wheelchair hire was $40 compared to $12 at Disney! All day dining was a joke - nothing opened until 11:30 for food and food was disgusting! Full review by C1886ISjamesm

This park is GREEDY! You will need to pay evrything, even after you purchased a $100 admission. The parking fee is even more expensive than the Disney World. Dont go! ZERO star! Full review by au0750

Hi, I would like to know if we can take granola bars and/or PB Sandwiches inside Busch garden. We consume vegetarian food but one of us is sensitive to Onion and garlic. Is it possible to take very minimum food just for a person or so? It would be great if we could get the answer within a day as we need to decide whether to buy the ticket or not. Thank you so much for the help.

The guidelines say “snacks” are allowed but not “food”, so presumably granola bars are allowed but not sandwiches? There is no formal check of all bags at the entrance - you walk through a scanner gate and only the occasional person is pulled out for a more thorough search. So, you may be able to get through with “food” if not pulled out of the crowd!

They do have a fair amount of handicapped parking. Basic Parking is $35 dollars a day. They do have preferred parking which is closer for those who are not handicapped I believe they want $50 for preferred parking.
Could someone give me an idea for the price of food if I DIDNT get the “all day dining option”? (Do these places/restaurants serve you or only the all day diners?) what about other restaurant prices?

Food at Busch Gardens is a bit expensive. for quick service meals you are looking about $20 per person for meals. I would recommend getting the refillable drink cup as then you can get unlimited refills. The places that have the all day dining will serve all guests it is just certain restaurants that offer the all day dining. So those with the all day dining have more limited choices on where they can get food.
