food IS a theme park
This morning, we showed you a first look at the newly returned Character Dining at Storytellers Cafe in Disneyland!
Now we’re back to give you a full review of the breakfast and our experience! What are you waiting for? Let’s get going!
Earlier today, Storytellers Cafe at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa at Disneyland Resort brought back their character dining breakfast.
And while many meals that were formerly served as buffets in the Disney parks have been converted to family-style meals, Storytellers Cafe is actually serving up a BUFFET! While that buffet contains a bunch of options you’re used to seeing — Mickey waffles, bacon, etc. — it’s also got some drinks served in a unique way!
Character dining has slowly but surely started returning to the Disney Parks!
Restaurants like Chef Mickey’s, Tusker House, and Hollywood & Vine have brought back character dining in Disney World, but now it’s time for Disneyland! The Plaza Inn in Disneyland is bringing back character dining in August, but another restaurant’s character dining returns TODAY.
Lots of things have changed at Disney World and Disneyland over the past several months.
One of the big things we’ve seen particularly in Disney World is that generally all of the restaurants that used to offer buffet-style meals have been converted to family-style meals, prix fixe menus, or a la carte dining. But, when Storytellers Cafe at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa at Disneyland Resort started offering its character dining breakfast/brunch again today we experienced something different.
We’ve seen quite a few reopening announcements at Disneyland Resort recently.
It seems like everything from rides to restaurants to resorts are getting reopening dates, and we’re very excited to check it all out. Recently, it was announced that character meals are coming back to the resort, and today you can make reservations for one of those meals!
Things are constantly changing at the Disney parks around the world. Since Disneyland reopened in California in late April, things at the resort have changed a LOT!
Hotels have reopened, more restaurants have become available for guests to enjoy, and a brand new land (Avengers Campus) has even opened! And while fans have been able to say hello to Mickey and other Disney friends from a distance, one big thing has been missing from Disneyland…character dining. But soon, that’s going to change!
There’s some big news happening in Disneyland this week!

We made it!
We’re LIVE from the opening day of Avengers Campus today but that’s not the ONLY news from Disneyland! We’ve got an update on everything new in food, construction, and merchandise at Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure, Downtown Disney, and the Disneyland Resort hotels!
Disneyland Resort is continuing with its phased reopening, which means more restaurants are coming BACK!

Storytellers has reopened!
Recently, Blue Bayou reopened (with booze!), and we’re looking forward to the NEW eats at Avengers Campus, too. But today, we stopped by Storytellers Cafe for its grand reopening!
When Disneyland reopened, some of its restaurants did not. However, that’s all about to change! FOUR restaurants at Disneyland Resort will be reopening soon!
Alfresco Tasting Terrace reopens on May 20th (exclusively to Legacy Passholders and their guests), Blue Bayou reopens on May 27th, Napa Rose reopens for dinner on May 28th, and Storytellers Cafe reopens for breakfast and dinner on May 28th.
Disneyland may be OPEN again, but some spots still remain closed!
We’ve been enjoying all sorts of eats inside the parks, but many restaurants are still shuttered. However, we’ve gotten BIG news recently about some restaurants that are reopening soon — and now, we’ve got an update about WHEN you can book your reservations.
