You cannot take outside food or drinks inside. However they do not search, so you can sneak it in. They also have a HyVee cafeteria that has pizza Burgers Etc.

I dont think so they have a place to eat at the zoo but ive never at there so i dont know how much it is

Teka Kasper | Oct 17, 2018

Outside food is not allowed. You can bring small snack type items for children. They do have the ability to check your bags. There was an issue of people feeding the animals.

No, maybe in a diaper bag, if you have a small child. But others than that it's not allowed
