Kid-friendly food at Disneyland.
The best places to get food for your hangry little animals (I mean, cute kids!).
Snacks worth a stop
A snack every 60–90 minutes keeps small humans regulated. These four pass the toddler test.
Mickey pretzel
Carts park-wide
Warm, soft, splittable. The crowd-pleaser.
Fresh fruit cart
Near Tomorrowland & DCA entrance
Sliced apples, grapes, bananas — healthy!
Dole Whip
Tiki Juice Bar, Adventureland
Dairy-free, served fast, universally adored.
Mickey Ice Cream Bars
CARTS PARK-WIDE
Just look out for "dad tax" and have some wipes ready for those chocolate-covered faces that look so cute and happy!
Lunch spots that work with kids
Book ahead in the app or stop by around 11:30am to get an early seat before the crowds!
Blue Bayou (Disneyland)
Best food in town. Pasta for kids. Dark, mellow vibe next to Pirates of the Caribbean. Food that mom and dad will actually be excited about. A shooting star on the ceiling.
Flo's V8 Café (DCA)
Rotisserie chicken with mashed potatoes — comfort food kids actually finish. Big patio with shade.
Bring-from-home ideas
- • Disneyland allows outside food (no glass, no alcohol). Pack your child's favorites, water bottles (hook on with carabiners), and power bars for mom and dad.
- • A small bag or a big purse can fit on or under your stroller to keep goodies.
- • Our favorites are: tangerines, strawberries, crackers, & whatever mom is eating.
- • If you're ok with sugar, pack an emergency treat too for unexpected moments.
