Hi there, Jeanette!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, and thanks for your great question. I can't wait for you and your children to experience the magic of a Disneyland Resort vacation.
I'm pleased to inform you that you may bring outside food and beverages into the theme parks at the Disneyland Resort with some limitations. Check the
Park Rules page before you arrive to make sure you will be good to go. Keep in mind that all items will be searched by security prior to entering Disneyland Resort property.
We often bring some snacks, water, and juice boxes for my son when we head to the parks. Even though we love the amazing dining and snacks offered here, we never know when my little one might get hungry waiting for an attraction, so we like to bring some granola bars for on-the-go snacking. If you wish to bring food, but don't want to worry about carrying it around, I suggest
renting a convenient locker at either park or in the esplanade between both parks. There's also a great picnic area located near these lockers where you can have a relaxing meal in a unique setting.
Even if you bring food, make sure you leave room for some iconic Disneyland treats like Dole Whip, Churros, or a famous Matterhorn Macaroon. I'm getting hungry just thinking about all the delicious items I will have on my next trip!
I hope this helps, and I wish you a magical day!
