From themed restaurants inside the park to CityWalk dining, here's a preview of the food and drink experiences Universal Studios Bedford could offer.

Theme park dining has evolved far beyond hot dogs and candy floss. Universal's resorts are now genuine food destinations, with restaurants that attract diners who aren't even visiting the parks. Universal Studios Bedford will raise the bar for UK theme park food, drawing on the company's global dining expertise and British culinary culture.
Every Universal themed land includes dining that immerses guests in the story. The Wizarding World's Three Broomsticks serves shepherd's pie and butterbeer in a medieval tavern. Springfield's Krusty Burger and Moe's Tavern recreate The Simpsons' iconic eateries. Jurassic World's restaurants feel like research station canteens. This isn't just food — it's worldbuilding.
Bedford's themed restaurants will be designed alongside the attractions, with the same level of set design, props, and atmospheric detail. Expect at least one sit-down restaurant per themed land, plus multiple quick-service options and snack carts.
Universal adapts its food offerings to local tastes at every resort. Tokyo serves Japanese curry and takoyaki alongside pizza and burgers. Beijing features Chinese noodle dishes and dim sum. Bedford should embrace British food culture: proper Sunday roasts, artisan pies, craft ales, afternoon tea, and locally sourced Bedfordshire produce.
Universal parks have become leaders in dietary accommodation. Extensive allergen-free menus, plant-based options, halal and kosher choices, and staff trained in cross-contamination prevention are standard at Orlando and Hollywood. Bedford will launch with these systems from day one, reflecting the UK's diverse dietary landscape.
CityWalk will offer the resort's most diverse dining options, from casual quick-service to fine dining. Expect a mix of exclusive Universal concepts and carefully selected UK restaurant brands. Live cooking stations, open kitchens, waterside dining terraces, and seasonal menus will create reasons to visit CityWalk even without a park ticket.
Universal's mobile ordering system, integrated into the resort app, will let guests order food from their phone and collect it at a designated time — eliminating long food queues. This system, already proven at Orlando, transforms the dining experience by letting guests spend time on rides rather than waiting in restaurant lines.
