Fun Ways to Start the Day at the Disneyland Resort

What could be a better way to start a fun day at the parks than a delicious breakfast with some of your favorite friends? Check out these breakfast character meals available at the Disneyland® Resort:

In Disneyland® Park: We like starting the day early in the theme park and getting photos with the characters checked off our to-do list. Minnie & Friends Breakfast in the Park at Plaza Inn fills us up and sends us on our way with cereals, made-to-order omelets, scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, biscuits and gravy, French toast, Mickey waffles, muffins, croissant, Danish and fresh fruit. And photos with Minnie and friends.

At Disney California Adventure® park: If you’ve got little girls, nothing beats starting the day at Ariel’s Disney Princess Celebration. Sit indoors or out and share the “breakfast tier” with fresh fruit, cheeses and cold cuts and pastries, bagels and croissants, followed by an ample platter of scrambled eggs, bacon, turkey sausage and potatoes. All those beautiful princesses make a stop at the table for memorable photos and smiling faces.

At Paradise Pier® Hotel: If you’re not in a hurry to get in the park, what’s better than breakfast with the Big Cheese? Surf’s Up! Breakfast With Mickey and Friends features made-to-order omelets, flatbreads, Mickey waffles, chocolate peanut butter banana French toast, smoothies, a parfait station, chilaquiles (one of our favorites), smoked salmon and all the fixins’ and more. It’s a satisfying meal, and Mickey Mouse and pals dance and sing and make a stop at every table.

At the Disneyland® Hotel: Join Chef Goofy and some other favorite Disney Characters at this whimsical Goofy’s Kitchen where everyone’s a kid! Dine on a wide selection of delicious dishes and laugh it up during your meal. For breakfast, enjoy favorites like made-to-order omelets and fresh baked pastries or specialties like Mickey Mouse-shaped waffles and Goofy’s Peanut Butter Pizza.

At the Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel® & Spa: Join the lively Chip ‘n Dale Critter Breakfast for an unforgettable experience filled with music and lots of interactive fun featuring some of your favorite woodland friends. You may order from the menu or select your favorites from the Farmer’s Market buffet that serves up Mickey Mouse-shaped waffles, fresh fruit and made to order omelets.
