Ahoy, Lauren! Welcome to planDisney.
You have chosen my absolute favorite place at the
Disneyland Resort to enjoy a meal! There is just nothing better than dining under the eternal twilight of the
Blue Bayou Restaurant. Listen closely to the sounds of the bayou and wave to your fellow Guests as they sail away on their
Pirates of the Caribbean adventure! I have great news to share with you! If one of the original members of your party decides to take up residence at the nearby
Haunted Mansion as its 1,000th ghost before your meal, have no fear! You will not be charged a fee if you need to modify your party size upon arrival. When you check in, just alert the Cast Member to be sure they seat you at a table appropriate for your party size. You will only be charged a fee if your group is a complete no-show.
Now on to your feast! Did you know that you can take a peek at the
menu ahead of time on both the Disneyland website and the
Disneyland Mobile App? Ahead of your reservation, simply search for "Blue Bayou" in the app and tap into the selection. Look for the blue icons just under the restaurant name and scroll left until "View Menu" is visible. You can toggle between the lunch and dinner menus and do a little dance for joy that the famous Monte Cristo Sandwich is on the menu for both! You'll also note Blue Bayou is offering some plant-based options for our vegetarian friends, or if you're in the mood for something light. If you have Mouseketeers in tow, my kids love the create-your-own-entrée options, particularly the Petite Steak with Jasmine Rice. My favorite way to cap off our meal is with an order of Assorted Macarons and a coffee. This gives me just enough energy to kick-start a second wind!
Lauren, I hope this was helpful in planning out your afternoon! If you have any more questions, we are always here for you at
planDisney!
Yo-ho, Yo-ho!
