    Will Storytellers Cafe be opening up November 16th and later reservations on 9/25 like Goofy's Kitchen?

    Hi Brianna! Welcome to planDisney! Thanks so much for stopping by to send us your question!

    The Holidays at the Disneyland Resort are arriving very soon, and I'm so excited about it! Advanced Dining Reservations are on my wish list too, and I have been keeping an eye on Storytellers Cafe. While you can make reservations now for some holiday-related dining experiences, you will be able to make dining reservations for holiday experiences at Storytellers Cafe beginning October 2nd. The current seasonal dining offerings at Storytellers Cafe are offered through November 16th, and the holiday dining experiences will be offered from November 17th, 2025, through January 6th, 2026. 

    When dining at Storytellers Cafe at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, you can plan for three hours of complimentary parking with restaurant validation. When you arrive, the lobby is a great spot to enjoy a pre-dinner cocktail or mocktail before your dining reservation. In my experience, you might also find live entertainment happening in the lobby. Santa has also been known to make appearances there during the Holidays!

    If you have more questions before you arrive at The Happiest Place on Earth, please feel free to send them to us at planDisney. We're excited for you to visit during the most wonderful time of the year, and we would love to help!

    Wishing you magic,
    Lisa
