    We are thinking about a last minute trip to Disneyland during Thanksgiving. Do you know what Disneyland restaurants offer special Thanksgiving Meals? I know I'm already past my 60 booking window but thought we might get lucky with last minute. Thanks!

    Welcome to planDisney, Suzanne, and sign me up for a last-minute Thanksgiving visit to the Happiest Place on Earth! Yes, please. That sounds like pure magic. 

    Thank you for your great question! I love talking about my favorite topic - dining at Disneyland! While menus are always subject to change, there are usually many options for a traditional Thanksgiving meal at Disneyland Resort on Thanksgiving Day, including sit-down experiences at Goofy's Kitchen and Storytellers Cafe. According to the Disneyland website, Goofy’s Kitchen will offer specially prepared Thanksgiving-inspired dishes alongside your favorite brunch and dinner favorites on November 27, 2025, including a carving station with herb-marinated turkey breast. Yum! Over at Storytellers Cafe you'll find a delightful Thanksgiving Day dinner beginning at 1:30pm which will include roasted turkey with sourdough apple stuffing and cranberry sauce. That would be my choice! Plus, Mickey Mouse in his harvest best is hard to beat!

    You're correct, Suzanne, that you are within the 60-day booking window for dining reservations, but if you don't see your desired day or time at the location you're hoping for, definitely keep checking, even up to the day-of! No guarantees but wishes to come true sometimes.

    If, for whatever reason, a sit-down dining location is not an option, don't sleep on quick service! While we don't have menus quite yet for these, last year there were delicious turkey meal options at Carnation Cafe and Plaza Inn in Disneyland Park and Flo's V-8 Cafe and Carthay Circle Restaurant in California Adventure Park. I would definitely check those out, Suzanne, if you're in the park! You'll be able to look up menus in the Disneyland app on the day of your visit. TIP: An easy way to find all of the locations at Disneyland Resort with turkey on the menu is to simply search in the Disneyland app by clicking on the magnifying glass at the bottom, then type "turkey" into the search line at the top. Easy as (pumpkin) pie!

    I hope this has been helpful for you in your planning, Suzanne, and that you and your loved ones have so much fun immersed in the Disneyland magic. So much to be thankful for!

    Warmest wishes,
    McCayla

Hello from the Pacific Northwest! I'm McCayla, a wife and mom dreaming of adventure in the great wide somewhere, yet also completely content watching Toy Story from the couch. My love of Disneyland began as a little girl on Peter Pan's Flight and only grows with each visit. But even when I'm not physically at the Happiest Place on Earth, I truly feel that same joy when I can help others (YOU!) experience the magic of Disneyland Resort too.
