Howdy! How ya doin', Natalie? Welcome to planDisney!
Oh,
Goofy's Kitchen at the
Disneyland Hotel. You had me at peanut butter and jelly pizza. This is such a wonderful experience. Gawrsh, with its cheery atmosphere, culinary selections that appeal to pretty much everybody, and delightful character interactions, no wonder why it's a tradition for your family to eat here! Let's see how we can keep that tradition alive.
It
does appear that Goofy's Kitchen will be open during the week of December 3, 2023, but like you, I'm having difficulty pulling up reservations for that week. There could be a few factors at work here. Firstly, the
holiday season is a very popular time to visit the resort, and reservations usually get taken up rather quickly during this time of year. Secondly, every once in a while, reservations for particular locations aren't made available right when the booking window is open. While it's rare, it does happen. And lastly, hours of operation are always subject to change. My best advice is to keep checking back as your dates get closer to see if availability opens up.
If for some reason you aren't able to secure
advanced dining reservations for this location, there are a few
similar options you may want to consider as an alternative. There's
Minnie and Friends - Breakfast in the Park at the Plaza Inn in
Disneyland Park, where you can meet Minnie Mouse and her best pals while dining at an all-you-care-to-enjoy breakfast buffet. And if you want to dine outside of the parks, you might want to consider
Mickey's Tales of Adventure Breakfast Buffet at Storyteller's Cafe at
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, where you can meet Mickey Mouse and his friends while dining on some breakfast delights. Of course, if you want to really splurge and go for a very different experience, there's the option that's on
my bucket list, the
Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures at Napa Rose at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, which is available on select days. If you have a Princess fan in your group, you may want to strongly consider this one!
Natalie, I wish you the best of luck in securing the character dining experience of your dreams. If you have any other questions,
please feel free to reach out to me and I'd be happy to answer them for you!
I'm happy that you're happy,
Matt
