Stroll around Downtown Disney in Disneyland Resort with us to see allllll of the latest news when it comes to food, construction, and merchandise!
Welcome back to Downtown Disney, where some commotion has been happening in recent weeks! Since Southern California’s stay-at-home order was lifted, dining has returned, and soon there will be a ticketed event INSIDE California Adventure!!
But before we can get to that, we have to recap what we’ve seen lately at Disneyland’s shopping and dining district. Let’s jump in!
We’re hanging out at west coast Disney!
WE spent our day yesterday strolling around Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort to check out everything NEW! Here are all the latest updates in food and merchandise!
New treats have arrived at Trolley Treats at Disney California Adventure and they are pink and red with hearts all over!
No need to make your way over to Walt Disney World to get in on the Valentine’s Day action. Today, we spotted chocolate, chocolate, and MORE chocolate in Disney California Adventure!
Greetings from sunny California!
We popped into Downtown Disney yesterday to take a gander at everything new! Southern California is currently under a stay-at-home order, so shopping and dining are limited. Still, here are all the updates in food, construction, and merchandise!
Last month, Southern California entered a new regional stay-at-home order which mandated the closure of seated dining, allowing only takeout or delivery options. For the Disneyland Resort, this meant the closure of all of their dining locations in Downtown Disney as well as Buena Vista Street. Not only that, but Disney doubled down and have temporarily banned all eating and drinking on property.
Prior to this new mandate, you could remove your face mask to eat and drink so long as you were stationary and socially distanced, much like the current policy in Disney World. But with no eating or drinking allowed at all, what does it look like to actually purchase food in Disneyland right now?
Despite Southern California’s regional stay-at-home order mandating that restaurants can only serve takeout and delivery, Disneyland is still finding ways to give guests the options to pick up their favorite sweet treats while following government protocol!
We hopped into Trolley Treats, the resident candy and sweets shop in Disney California Adventure (currently open as part of the Buena Vista Street expansion of Downtown Disney) to try one of their latest Rice Krispie Treats…but we would have to wait a little while before we actually ate it!
Just a few days ago, we were munching on holiday cupcakes and more all around Disneyland Resort and the newly reopened Buena Vista Street.

But, things have quickly changed in California. Last week, Governor Newsom announced that stay-at-home orders would be imposed for regions based on ICU availability. This weekend, Southern California (the region that Disneyland Resort is located in) reached the set ICU capacity level, triggering the stay-at-home order for that region. Under this new order, restaurants can only be open for takeout or delivery. Disneyland confirmed that some of the restaurants at the resort would remain open for takeout under this order, while others would entirely close. Here’s a full list of what restaurants are and are not open at Disneyland Resort based on our trip today.
With Buena Vista Street now open, we’ve got LOTS more shopping and dining to do all throughout Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort!

Come with us on a trip today throughout all of Downtown Disney to see what’s new! We’ve got comfy and cute spirit jerseys, a holiday cupcake, a new overhead announcement, and more!
If you’ve been following along with us at DFB for the past few weeks, then you’ve probably seen TONS of holiday posts and articles from Walt Disney World.
However, we’ve also been spending time celebrating on the West Coast at Disneyland Resort! Even though the parks aren’t open, we’ve been checking out all the holiday offerings in Downtown Disney and the newly reopened Buena Vista Street. We’ve tried holiday snacks, shopped for holiday merchandise, and even gotten to experience Christmas decorations! And when strolling through Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure today, we spotted an adorable Christmas cupcake that we couldn’t resist!
