Busch gardens and SeaWorld have the same prices. The cheapest meal you can get will be fish strips and fries or chicken strips and fries. Meals do not include drinks. The cheapest meal and a drink will be about $15-$16 after taxes. Me and my wife spent $32 just on lunch.
Just pack your own sandwich and drink in your bag if you're trying to save money.
To make it cheaper, what I did is.. get the all dinning package ticket which can be incl. In the ticked ( you can still add-on at the park if all ready have your ticked, but with the ticked its cheaper ) and you can eat.. every hour and have unlimited drinks all day long. You will totally get your money back and it does save a lot.
I think for a meal and a drink, about $20/pp is a safe estimate
It can be quite expensive I would say lunch and a drink about 15 dollars, they do have an all you can eat and drink for the day offer for 35 dollars.
