A great big planDisney welcome to you, Patrick! Thanks for coming back to share this wonderful question with us and I hope we can get you the help you need to continue preparing for your adventure to 'The Happiest Place on Earth!'
I'm sorry to hear that you've had trouble securing a dining reservation at
Goofy's Kitchen. I know how frustrating it is to not be able to find the dining availability you hoped for at some of the more popular dining locations. However, I think this one might be an issue of timing and not so much about the lack of availability. Recently, a
Disney Parks Blog article featured some information about the Fall favorites returning to Disneyland Resort this year, including a special Halloween-themed experience at Goofy's Kitchen. Since
Halloween Time at Disneyland Resort officially kicks off on August 23 this year, my suspicion is that the reservation availability simply hasn't yet been released at Goofy's Kitchen for these dates. My best recommendation is to continue searching for
dining reservations each day as you get closer to your visit dates. I know it might seem like a lot of work, but this is a unique seasonal dining experience you won't want to miss!
Speaking of other frightful delights, have you heard the news that
Haunted Mansion Holiday will be coming back - with a virtual queue - just in time for the Halloween season? I know so many Guests (myself included) are excited to see the reveal of this year's gingerbread design! If we can help with other suggestions or recommendations for your visit, Patrick, please don't hesitate to come back to
planDisney with additional questions. We'd love to see you again real soon!
Happy Haunts,
Tishra
