Hi Ashley, welcome to planDisney. The countdown is on for your magical visit to the Happiest Place on Earth! Delicious meals and snacks will be just the thing to power you up between attractions, entertainment, Character encounters, shopping, and more.
Ashley, while the Disneyland Resort doesn’t offer a dining plan like the one at Walt Disney World, which lets you pre-pay for meals and snacks, there are some
fantastic dining packages that pair meals with prime viewing spots for select parades and nighttime spectaculars!
I recommend the
Fantasmic Dining Package. You’ll eat at one of the participating restaurants along the Rivers of America, and depending on your choice, you will either get a voucher for a premium viewing area or have a chance to watch
Mickey wield his imagination to save the day right from your table! Other dining packages may be announced as the year goes on. You can check them out on the
Dining Page of the Disneyland website. This is also where you can make reservations for sit-down dining options. Start checking availability 60 days out as reservation opportunities are released.
To save time while in the park, use the
Disneyland app to place a mobile order from one of the
quick-service restaurants. From the app's home screen, tap the plus (+) sign at the bottom and then tap "Order Food." You can even schedule orders to be picked up later in the day. A few of my favorite dishes include the Corn Ribs Plate from
Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree and the Creamy Pasta Primavera from
Boardwalk Pizza and Pasta.
Also, Ashley, September is a great time to visit. Grim grinning ghosts and eerie chills will materialize throughout the Disneyland Resort as part of
Halloween Time. You can expect seasonal versions of favorite attractions, festively dressed Characters, spirited decorations, and more.
I hope your visit to the Disneyland Resort is filled with magical moments and delicious meals, Ashley! Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions—we’re here to help.
Your pal,
Kriss
