Can you make reservations and just go for desert? What all do they offer for deserts??
 
Yes, you can. As figment said, there are limited options BUT the creme brulee is delicious!! They also have better coffee than most other park restaurants. We were told they use a special premium blend. Now, that was back when Nestle had the rights to all of the coffee so I'm not sure if that is still true. Anyway, what my daughter and I did was to go near the last serving time of the day. I can't remember what it is now, but something like an hour before closing, they start taking walk-ups. We never made a reservation for dessert, we'd just do a walk-up. If you're going during a really busy time or if your party is large, that probably isn't the best idea.

If you want to go somewhere with amazing desserts, go to Napa Rose! You can go just for dessert and what they have is soooooo good. They run around $15, though! They're also closed for refurb during Sept.
 
If looking for another dessert option , the lounge at Steakhouse 55 at the Disneyland Hotel is wonderful.

As it is bar seating it would have to be adults but wanted to toss it out there as they simply have the best creme bruelle imo along with a yummy Root Beer Baked Alaska and of course the 24 layer cake :)

Oooooo yes!!! Forgot that one!!

You can also just go into the lounge portion of Napa Rose and order anything off the drink, appetizer or dessert menu without waiting for a table . The World's Best Hot Chocolate and cheese sampler platter while relaxing in the comfy chairs during winter time to end a cold day in the park is the way to go!

That's what we did, too! I had the World's Best Hot Chocolate (comes with 2 homemade doughnuts, as I recall) and other people in our group ordered different things but they all liked mine the best :goodvibes. The homemade ice cream was delicious too. I think my sister had Irish coffee and we were in a nice cozy spot near the fire, which was so relaxing, just as ParkHopper said. It was a nice way to end a January day after being in the parks.

Is the Worlds Best Hot Chocolate NON alcoholic?
 
It's nice for the atmosphere. When I went just for desert, they had a chocolate chip cookie boat thing that was pretty good. Outrageoulsy overpriced, but still not bad. I enjoyed it though later felt stupid for wasting so much money. But I suppose it's worth it just once.

Yes...it is actually made from melted chocolate, not a powder. The doughnuts are hand made, fried fresh and served on a plate brushed with edible gold flake (we have done the Chef's Counter Dessert Counter twice!) They do not mess around with that dessert and is the most popular.

It is however a seasonal dessert only available on the winter menu.

...but add a shot of Baileys and whala!...adult dessert!
 
We went to BB just for dessert at around 3pm in the afternoon. Wanted to experience Blue Bayou, but not pay for a whole dinner (that my girls probably wouldn't even like!) so this was great!

They still gave us the bread basket too.

It was Halloween when we went so I had the Minnie Mouse demitasse cup with a pumpkin chocolate mousse, very yum! And you got to keep the cup. The girls had a chocolate lava cake with raspberry sauce, and my Mum had a key lime pie. They were around $8 each.

We had a reservation but just told them when we got there that we just wanted dessert. Was a fun experience!

That sounds yummy! We'll have to try that out next month!(How nice that they gave you the bread basket as well!!!)::yes::
 
What a great idea. We were there a few days ago and wasted so much food because we didn't want to carry leftovers with us. If you don't do desert only, I recommend sharing meals as they are large.

Tasha...

I so wish someone had given us this advice, the first time we ate at Blue Bayou!!!!!

We ignorantly ordered four Monte Cristos for the four of us(two adults, and two children)!:eek:

We were so sick from trying to finish(didn't want to waste the money we had spent), which of course we couldn't, and had no way to take the leftovers, so we wasted the food, as well!

It was a sad and expensive lesson!:(
 
I just made reservations and it will be my first time there. Do they also offer appetizers? I'm leaning toward just an appetizer and dessert since they are so expensive, but I do want to try it once!!
