3 Days First Timers - Where to Eat?

[Thiago Acquaviva]

Hello guys!

We're 3 adults (but when at this we're 3 teenagers... sometimes 3 kids lol)
We're planning to visit Disneyland for the first time in November, 3 days park to park.
Which places do you recommend us to visit, considering we don't have any food restrictions and that we love to eat any type of food?

3 Quick services and 1 Table Service should be fine

Plaza Inn & French Market CS. Idk which CS for DCA.

Carthay or Blue Bayou TS (you'd have to look at the menus to decide, Blue Bayou is the one in POTC).

At CA, Pacific Wharf Cafe where they make the sourdough bread is my favorite. It smells so good in there!

At DL, I really like French Market for counter service and Cafe Orleans for table service.

Compared to WDW, DL and DCA has fewer table service restaurants that are reasonably priced. Blue Bayou has great atmosphere, but the prices are outrageous. Carnation Cafe is our "go to" place. It's right on Main St. The prices are reasonable and the portions are large enough to share (if you want).

Jolly Holiday is a nice CS meal. Grilled cheese and tomato soup is a family favorite.

Have a magical time!

Also keep in mind that is Dapper Day weekend.

French market
Bengal bbq snack

I always go to Boardwalk pizza & pasta. It’s probably not a must do for most. DCA food is lacking. I love the veg sandwich at award wieners.
I am going to try the cozy come veg chili this time though.

I also like jolly holiday. Plaza inn if you want fried chicken.

TS - Blue Bayou - yes pricey as noted by a PP, but IMO worth it

QS - Flo's V-8 Diner

Those two came to mind quickly. Then I had to think about two more QS.

At DL we almost always end up at Jolly Holiday Bakery at least once.

At DCA? Hard to say but probably Pacific Wharf Cafe.

Carnation Cafe: meatloaf, burger, chicken fried chicken, fried pickles, baked potato soup...actually, anything from here is yummy! Great place to make a ressie for and early lunch after a morning of rides.

Whitewater Snacks: again, lots of good stuff here (chicken nachos) and a great place to sit and have a little quiet time away from the crowds.

Tortilla Joe's: Chicken burrito is really good, but, it is huge! Same about the nachos.

There are a couple of threads with pics of food that would show how big a portion is and what people thought about the food. You could see what you may like/dislike. Plus, the menus on the Disneyland website have the prices on them.

Wow big thanks guys!

You can look at the DLR menus (DL, DCA, DTD, on site hotels) at allears.net. The menus and prices get updated throughout the year, so things stay fairly accurate. Those menus will help you find things that will interest all 3 of you. Come back with any questions!

Thank you very much @theluckyrabbit! this board is amazing!
I can't wait to finally be ate Disneyland!

 

[theluckyrabbit]

You're very welcome! You are going to have such a great time! By the way, have you read this thread (A DLR Guide for WDW Vets) yet? Super helpful!

 

[Thiago Acquaviva]

@theluckyrabbit I've bookmarked and gonna read it asap! looks amazing and very useful!

 

[MagicMomma1]

Our favorite QS meals at DL are hands-down the corndogs from The Little Red Wagon and caprese sandwiches from The Jolly Holiday!
And we're excited to try the sandwiches from Earl of Sandwich in Downtown Disney when we visit next month.

The French market has several healthy options if that matters.

White Water snacks is fun, however it is a bit out of the way.

We really enjoyed Carnation Cafe and Cafe Orleans for table service.
