Disneyland holiday food guide 2026 lists 200-plus treats, buckets

The Disneyland Resort holiday menu runs Nov. 13 to Jan. 6 and lists more than 200 items by our count, with Downtown Disney carrying most of the new stuff. Nine novelties, including a Toy Story gingerbread bucket, arrive Nov. 13.

Disneyland’s holiday menu is out, and it’s long enough to need its own map.

Disney Parks Blog posted its Disney Eats Foodie Guide to Holidays at the Disneyland Resort on Wednesday, Nov. 4. Most items run Nov. 13 through Jan. 6, 2027. By our count, the guide lists more than 200 food and drink items across Disneyland park, Disney California Adventure restaurants, the three hotels, Downtown Disney and the candy shops.

That doesn’t include the 38 Festival of Holidays booth items at DCA, which we already covered. Disney Food Blog’s headline says “hundreds” of new treats. Plenty are returning favorites, though.

Downtown Disney is where the new stuff lives. Of roughly 50 listings there, 36 carry a “New” tag, per Disney Food Blog’s copy of the menu.

Disney didn’t list prices for any food or novelties. Expect them on menus and in the Disneyland app closer to Nov. 13.

Here’s a look at the holidays at the Disneyland Resort:

What are the new holiday treats at Disneyland park?

Disneyland park has about 60 holiday items at 31 spots. Main Street does the heavy lifting. Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe alone has 12, including the new Holiday Matterhorn Macaroon, a coconut macaroon dipped in white chocolate and sprinkles.

Other items Disney marks as new:

• Pomegranate-Jalapeno-Ginger Spritzer: Tito’s vodka and Sprite at Carnation Cafe

• DOLE Whip Cone: with holiday sprinkles at Tiki Juice Bar

• Hot Chocolate Cafe: hot chocolate, espresso and coconut at Rancho del Zocalo

• Chocolate Mint Cake: fudge brownie and peppermint cream at River Belle Terrace

• Sea Salt Vanilla Cream: at Maurice’s Treats

Other picks: the Heatwave Pizza Slice at Alien Pizza Planet, with pepperoni, smoked bratwurst, Fresno chiles and hot honey. There’s also an Alien Reindeer Macarooooon. That’s Disney’s spelling, not ours.

Harbour Galley sells gingerbread cookies in packs of six or 13, with a royal icing dip. Mickey Gingerbread cookies have a limit of five per person.

What holiday food is at Downtown Disney?

Lots of new stuff across 19 spots. Some standouts:

• Gingerbread Cookie Lumpia at Big Boi Lumpia Co., through Dec. 31

• Chocolate Peppermint Churro at California Churro

• Eggnog Bread Pudding at Jazz Kitchen, plus eggnog-glazed beignets at Beignets Expressed

• Holiday Hearth Soda, a cookie butter “dirty soda” topped with a Biscoff cookie, at Vista Parkside Market

• Gingerbread House spiced winter ale at Ballast Point

Dates vary more here. Parkside Market’s drinks start Nov. 18, Salt & Straw’s Almond Brittle Cake runs Nov. 6 to Dec. 31, and Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby serves a turkey roulade on Thanksgiving only.

What holiday treats are at the Disneyland hotels?

• Grand Californian: The Great Hall cart has a Jumbo Santa Cake Pop, a Raspberry Coconut Macaroon Wreath and a Chocolate Chip Cookie Cup with Milk. Liqueur is optional.

• Disneyland Hotel: Trader Sam’s serves DOLE Whip floats in a Nightmare Before Christmas Haunted Mansion Holiday cup, limit two. Goofy’s Kitchen adds new cocktails like the Fireball-based Yuletide Ember.

• Pixar Place Hotel: The Sketch Pad Cafe has a new White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha.

Holiday character meals start Nov. 16, as we reported in October.

What are the Disneyland holiday popcorn buckets and sippers?

Nine novelties, eight of them new, all starting Nov. 13:

• Holiday Train Bucket, called the Mickey Train Light Up Bucket in Disney’s August preview

• Toy Story Gingerbread House Bucket

• Stitch Christmas Tree Sipper

• Holiday Popcorn Bucket and Holiday Ornament Glow Cube

• Holiday Stainless Steel Tumbler and Holiday Travel Tumbler

• Mickey Wreath Holiday Straw Clip and the returning Chip ‘n’ Dale Candy Cane Straw Clip

Most have a limit of two per person, per transaction. The Holiday Popcorn Bucket, travel tumbler and Chip ‘n’ Dale clip allow 10. Disney’s special “Seasonal Novelty Release” spots mostly run only Nov. 13 to 15, and Troubadour Tavern’s only through Nov. 14.

Disney World got the Toy Story bucket and Stitch sipper first, starting Nov. 6, as we reported. Disneyland fans waited a week longer and got a train.

When does Disneyland holiday food start?

Most items run Nov. 13 to Jan. 6. A few exceptions, per Disney’s guide:

• Candy shops start a day early, Nov. 12, through Jan. 2.

• Some items are already out, like Little Red Wagon’s Spicy Chili-Cheese Corn Dog.

• Carnation Cafe’s Holiday Dinner Special starts Nov. 27.

• Plaza Inn’s pumpkin pie ends Nov. 30, and its Apple Bundt Cake starts Dec. 1.

Nov. 13 is also when Downtown Disney’s nightly snow returns, as we reported. Pace yourself. That’s a lot of gingerbread.
