Hi Kamakana! Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney.
I understand wanting to grab a coveted dining reservation, and the iconic
Goofy's Kitchen in
Disneyland Hotel is always a good one, especially with the extra Halloween fun thrown in! I've eaten there with a big group and the food was yummy, there were lots of choices, and the interactions with the Characters were so much fun. I bet the Halloween costumes the Characters will be donning will look super cute in photos! I hope you're able to grab a spot.
Dining reservations typically open up 60 days out. They often are released at 6 AM PST but can release earlier or later. My best advice is to set an alarm for as early as 3 AM PST on your device and start checking to see if reservations have become available by refreshing your browser. This will be a popular
Character Dining Experience, so spots could fill up pretty quickly. Persistence will be key.
If your preferred date is fully booked, don't give up. People's plans change. Cancelations can mean that your preferred time will open up even just 24 hours before. So, keep checking! Also, you can always ask the Cast Member at the host stand about availability. You never know until you try.
Check out all the
Halloween Time coming to the parks this season by following the
Disney Parks Blog. My must-do is always the
Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay in New Orleans Square at Disneyland Park, but there are bound to be some hauntingly good treats or merchandise you'll want to snag too.
Have a spooky good time!
