the best food at Disneyland
Sure, many go to Disneyland for rides, entertainment, and characters – but we also know those who go to the Happiest Place on Earth for food!
Even if you aren’t there for the food, no one can deny that the Churros and Dole Whips are out of this world delicious – and those are just two of the hundreds of menu items I’ve rounded up.
Being a foodie and going to the parks quite often, I decided to compile a list of all Disneyland restaurants as well as highlight some of the best food at Disneyland and my personal favorites.
Search by area. For easy searching, I broke the list down by the “lands” of Disneyland. I’ve also linked to each place’s website and menu. The dollar sign will help you determine the price point.
Check back often. With Disney always changing and adding, this list will be updated often so be sure to come back before your next Disney trip! Also, check out our Best Restaurants at Disney World post).
Seasonal offerings. The parks often bring out seasonal Disneyland food, so be sure to check our social media and seasonal posts to find out about all the latest and newest treats hitting the parks.
