Hi David,
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel, where I love hearing from fellow Californians!
To answer your question-- absolutely! Guests visiting the Parks are allowed to bring their own snacks and light food items. However, at this time, you can enjoy your own complete meals and beverages in a perfect setting at the
complimentary picnic area, located outside of the Disneyland Park Main Entrance.
There are also locker rentals conveniently located next to the picnic area in case you need to store your small cooler or other food items and supplies before entering the Parks.
Now, if you have specific dietary restrictions, then you're most welcome to bring your own food, although I have to say-- the Disneyland Resort offers an awesome variety of delicious
dining options for almost every taste and budget and they make every effort to accommodate guests with food allergies and
special dietary requests.
You like a big, juicy bite of protein? Try an iconic
turkey leg!
Thinking of indulging in 3-course meal? Book a table at the
Blue Bayou for an exquisite Surf N' Turf dinner entree!
If you're trying to stick to a vegetarian option-- Have a toasted cheese sandwich & tomato basil soup combo at
Jolly Holiday Bakery.
Those are just a few ideas but as you can see, the Disneyland Resort has many wonderful dining options!
Have a Magical day!
