Drinking fountains

[Kesohio63]

Are drinking fountains available at the parks? I don’t like to carry a huge water bottle, just a small one that I refill as needed. I have found that public drinking fountains where I live are currently not working due to Covid, so I want to be prepared for our upcoming WDW trip.

I know they're there and operating at least in Magic Kingdom and Epcot, so I presume they're working everywhere.

If you find a food stand with a soda fountain, they can get you cups of water (with or without ice) for no charge.

The Magic Kingdom fountain water was lukewarm and did nothing to cool me off, so I'd say go the courtesy water cups, buuuuuut they might get it from the same source, I don't know.

Great, thanks for the info!

Yes. And there are bottle filling stations around the parks, too.

Don't forget you can get free iced water from any restaurant / counter service station in WDW

The fountain water is from the same source, but QS restaurants add ice so it tastes better.

Plus...they arent the most sanitary, if youre talking about the old turn the handle and bend over to drink type. Counter service water is good and at many places you dont have to wait in the food line if thats all you want.

Where are the bottle filling stations? I haven't gone to a park for a few years and this is a welcome addition! (most other vacation spots have had them for years!)

I know there's one in the line for Flight of Passage. I don't usually carry a water bottle, so I don't pay too much attention, myself.

I found this, which has a list:

Magic Kingdom Cosmic Rays restaurant has a water bottle refill station.

There's fountains. What comes out of them isn't drinkable though. Unfiltered FL water is vile.

That's the same thing that came to mind for me - the water tastes "swampy" so we normally avoid them.
