Buffets at Disneyland

[libbylast]

Hi
I had planned to do lots of expensive meals but things have changed and now I am planning to do meals at a low cost as possible apart from our last night where we are going cafe mickey.
I have read that there are lots of buffet style places to eat in the park and hotels.
Can you please tell me where they are and how much they are. Also if in hotels can I go to them if not staying in them. finally do I need to make bookings.
Thanks

the buffets start at 21 euros without a drink. in the parks these would be in the plaza gardens, agrabah and in the studio restaraunt des stars

you can eat in any of the hotels without staying there

We went to Plaza Gardens in sept and if memory serves me correct it was around e19 per person, we have eaten here 3 times before only once was it not that good, but this time surpassed our expectations the food was pentiful and very tasty, pastas, roast beef, burgers, chicken, prawns, fish, salads, bread, veg, cheese, fruit and various yummy desserts and probably a lot more as can't remember all of it! Their are others in disneyland park but I haven't eaten at them so couldn't comment but think they are Agrabah cafe and Lucky Nugget? oh and Pizza planet. In the studios I believe there is just the one and that is Resturant des stars. In the village there is the sunday brunch at the steakhouse and I believe all of the onsite hotels have a buffet resturant, with santa fe and cheyene being the less expensive options. There is however various fast food options in and out of the parks so if you don't have huge appetites then you could split a meal deal. Sandwiches can be bought at the train station a lot cheaper than in the parks (this is something I have found out on these boards). And it would be very remiss of me to not mention if you are staying onsite to make the most of your breakfast and to fill some rolls for later on, we did this a few yrs back when we had a trip planned and my DH was made redundant so money or lack of it was an issue, but it didn't squash our enjoyment in any way, it is Disney after all

I hope I haven't given you any wrong information, and hope someone can put it right for me if I have and give more help on the other buffets.

Enjoy your trip

Doh

Just reread and seen that it looks as though you are not staying onsite, yes you can go into the hotels if you are not staying there (we did and didn't get secruity on us) and it is better to book if it is at a busy time, although would suggest that day would be fine but do it earlier on.
