    I'll be visiting Disneyland in September, I want to make a reservation for the Character dining in the Plaza Inn but its been several days that the dates are not available past August 9th, will the restaurant be closed or is it too soon to reserve?

    Hi there, Adriana! Welcome back to planDisney. Character dining is a staple in my family when it comes to visiting the parks. We always make it a point to snag a reservation whenever we visit because it’s such a great way to interact with characters while enjoying a delicious meal. Let’s take a look at what’s available during your visit.

    At this time, I haven’t seen any announcements that Plaza Inn will be closing for a refurbishment. However, I did notice that dining reservations are not currently available past August 9, and the restaurant is listed as closed rather than no reservations available for the first few weeks of September, including your arrival date. Since dining availability and restaurant schedules can change, I recommend checking back periodically and keeping an eye on the “Closed for Refurbishment” section of the Hours & Events Calendar for any updates.

    Because your September visit is still a little ways away, I wouldn’t worry just yet! Additional dining availability or more information about this closure may become available as your arrival date gets closer. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you’ll be able to enjoy a magical character breakfast at Plaza Inn during your visit!

    If you’re hoping to book something now just to have a reservation secured, I do see current availability for Goofy’s Kitchen during your arrival window! This is such a fun way to celebrate the Halloween season with a little extra Goofy charm. Enjoy festive decorations, cheerful music, and seasonal menu favorites while Goofy and his pals stop by in their holiday attire to share smiles, laughs, and plenty of photo opportunities. Be sure to save some room for their famous Peanut Butter and Jelly Pizza!

    Adriana, thank you so much for visiting planDisney. While I know this may not be the answer you were hoping to hear, I’m wishing on every star that Plaza Inn opens up in time for your arrival. If you have any more questions before then, planDisney is here for you!
