Newbie questions

This is my first time to Disneyland since I was 7 (so basically my first time).

I am travelling alone and was looking for cheap breakfast ideas. When I went to WDW in 2009, I brought a box of cereal/bowl/spoon and bought milk in the store in the resort hotel. Is there some place I can buy milk in the Paradise Pier hotel? Or in Downtown Disney?

Also does anyone know of any places outside of disney to eat breakfast (like Dennys or even a McDonalds would work) that isn't too far from PPH?

Thanks!!

I believe the is a snack bar (for lack of a better word) in the lobby of PPH that we got breakfast stuff at. I think that they sell milk but I would think it would be in single serve bottles. They also have a gift shop in the lobby but I do not recall them having snacks, but I wasn't looking for them either. I have no info on offsite breakfast options, hopefully someone will step in with more concrete info.

You can by milk in the GCH, it has a small store to supply the DVC villas there, but is open to everyone in White Water Snacks.

If you were to walk past the gates wich will take about 10 minutes, then out of the resort to Harbor Dr. It's about 5 more minutes to McDonalds, to the north. 2 minutes to Ihop, almost strait across the street. And 3 minutes to Denny's to the south.

Some phrases such as, the most Expensive IHop in the World, and the Disneyland Resort inflation effect, do apply. As you probably know what buying milk onsite.

You will find a coupon for IHop and McDs in this link. http://anaheimoc.org/coupons

And in case you are wondering, you may get your McDonalds to go and walk into a park with it.

Thanks everyone! And yes, I definitely understand Disney inflation prices.

If you're going to McDonald's you could also trek a bit further and go to Mimi's. The muffins are amazing!

Going to those places on Harbor is really out of the way for someone who is staying at PPH. You'd have to cross through the esplanade and head in the opposite direction.

OP, I'd stick with Jamba Juice or La Brea Bakery in DTD if you just want to grab something quickly

La Brea is yummy! I always forget about them because we stay on Harbor.
