Hey there, Anna! Thanks for bringing your question to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. There is nothing quite like experiencing the Happiest Place on Earth with your family. You will make so many magical memories during your visit!
You can absolutely bring water bottles, drinks, and food into the parks. The only exceptions are that glass containers (except for small baby food jars) and alcohol aren’t allowed. If you plan on bringing a small cooler to keep your items cold, it must be smaller than 24” long x 15” wide x 18” high to be in accordance with Park Rules. You can store your cooler in one of the many
lockers available to rent. If you plan on packing lunches, it is preferred that you enjoy your lunch in the picnic area just outside of Disneyland Park. There are lockers inside this shady and secluded area to make it even more convenient.
Of course, there are lots of tasty places to have a meal inside the parks! Some of my favorite quick service dining locations include Flo’s V8 Café in Cars Land where you can enjoy your meal as cars on Radiator Springs Racers zoom by and Jolly Holiday Bakery Café right at the end of Main Street, U.S.A. The Disneyland Resort also
recently announced that mobile ordering is coming to the parks! This means that you can use the Disneyland app to order and pay for certain quick service meals in advance. You then just tap a button to alert the restaurant that you are there and your meal is freshly prepared. All without waiting in line!
I hope this information was helpful. Have a fabulous time at the Disneyland Resort!
