Flame Tree Barbecue: Savor the Smoky Flavors of the Wild

Location

📍Animal Kingdom | Discovery Island

Flame Tree Barbecue is located on Discovery Island in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, just a short stroll from the Tree of Life. This counter-service restaurant offers a serene setting with beautiful views of the surrounding waterways and lush greenery.

As you approach, the scent of smoked meats fills the air, drawing you in with the promise of a hearty, satisfying meal. The seating areas are tucked away in open-air pavilions, each offering a tranquil escape where you can enjoy your meal while surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature.

Ambiance

The ambiance at Flame Tree Barbecue is all about embracing the natural beauty of Animal Kingdom. The outdoor seating areas are beautifully themed with vibrant, tropical colors and intricate animal carvings, creating a peaceful yet lively atmosphere.

The pavilions are spaced out enough to provide a sense of privacy, and many offer stunning views of the nearby Expedition Everest or the serene Discovery River. Whether you’re dining solo or with a group, the ambiance here makes it easy to relax and soak in the park’s unique environment.

Menu

Flame Tree Barbecue is a meat lover’s paradise, featuring a menu that’s all about slow-smoked, flavorful barbecue. From the mouthwatering St. Louis Ribs to the savory Pulled Pork Sandwich, each dish is packed with rich, smoky goodness.

The Baked Macaroni & Cheese with Pulled Pork is a fan favorite, often highlighted in social media posts for its delicious combination of creamy cheese and tender pork.

Flame Tree Smokehouse Chicken Salad French Fries, Onion Rings, Cole Slaw, and Salted Caramel Apple Crisp Cupcake

If you’re looking for something lighter, the Smokehouse Chicken Salad offers a refreshing contrast to the richer dishes. The portions are generous, making this a great spot for those looking to refuel with a hearty meal or to share.

Mobile Order

Flame Tree Barbecue offers Mobile Order, making it easy to skip the line and have your meal ready when you are. Simply place your order through the My Disney Experience app, and you’ll be notified when it’s time to pick up your feast. This service is especially handy during peak meal times, allowing you to enjoy more of your day at the park.
