Hi Joy!
Welcome to planDisney! Thank you so much for sending this
Disneyland Resort planning question to us hEAR!
How exciting that you have a visit to The Happiest Place on Earth coming up so soon! It sounds like you've already planned some epic Disney days and are starting to fine-tune those last Disney details. At this time we as Panelists haven't hEARd when
The Sand Bar at
Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel will reopen. It's a real bummer too because one of their most creative culinary creations debuted shortly before the historic closure and I had it on my Disney must-do list: the
Spaghetti Burger!
I think your best bet will be to keep up with the
Disney Parks Blog between now and your arrival, as they're the most official source of the newest Disney Parks news. It's practically written by Mickey himself! And better yet, you can
follow them across all of your social media platforms so you'll be sure to never miss an update. The Disney Parks Blog often posts
foodie news from all over, so they're always my go-to when I'm going to one of Mickey's hangouts.
If you were asking about
The Sand Bar because you were more looking forward to some poolside libations and delicious drinks, then you'll be happy to know that you're also more than welcome to bring your own food and drinks with you, as long as none of the containers are glass. You can even set up a grocery delivery - from any company or service you choose - to your
Disneyland Resort Hotel and have it waiting for you upon your arrival!
I'm so sorry that I wasn't able to really clEAR up your question, Joy, but I hope that this helped to set up some backup plans for your Disney pool days! Be sure to check out our
official planDisney Panel Instagram account for even more tips and tricks. And if you have any more
Disneyland Resort vacation planning questions, We're All Ears!
