For a place as amazing as Disney you would think that any snacks,treats or food in general would not be a issue that was given a lot of thought. Walt however gave a great deal of thought to Food at Disneyland. He wanted you to feel at home even though you were in a magical place. The original 1955 Restaurants included:

• Carnation Cafe
• Plaza Inn
• Refreshment Corner,hosted by Coca-Cola
• River Belle Terrace

Lets take a tour through the park and look at all the wonderful places to eat all day long. The best meal of the day is of course Breakfast. There is not many places that serve breakfast but here are some great places to start off the day right:

1. River Belle Terrace: an original 1955 restaurant- Home of the Mickey Mouse Pancake
2. La Brea Bakery Cafe: Downtown Disney- Best Bacon and French Toast in the Park
3. Main Street fruit Stand: Great place to get some healthy morning snacks

What comes between Breakfast and lunch why 2nd breakfast (or morning snack time) of course. Usually the time is right after we have ridden POC and maybe the haunted Mansion and are ready to take a long walk over to Fantasyland or Tommorowland and you need some little pick me up:

1. Apple, Carmel and Peanuts-Found at the Critter Country Fruit Stand
2. Popcorn
3. Churros
4. HOT McDonalds French Fries at Harbor Galley or Conestoga Fries
5. Pooh Corner- Best Carmel dipped pretzel sticks and apples in the land.

After some thrilling rides and having It's a Small World stuck in your head for the rest of the day its time for lunch. There are so many great lunch places it's hard to say where you should start but I know where I head to first:

1. The Golden Horseshoe:Chili Bread Bowls,Burgers and dogs while watching the best Hillbillies this side of the I-5 freeway.
2. The Bengal Barbacue- Chicken, Beef and veggie Kabbobs oh Yum.
3. Redd Rockett's Pizza Port- Hey It's got AC for those hot summer days and great Pasta,Pizza and Salads.
4. Royal Street Veranda-I've never eaten here but dang it smells good 1 word GUMBO

After Lunch parades and shows are always fun. Some show let you bring more nummy treats but whats best in the hot afternoon sun when you wan to cool down ICE CREAM!

1. Clarabelle's Frozen Yogurt-in ToonTown
2. Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor, hosted by Nestlé® Ice Cream-Main Street
3. Main Street Cone Shop, hosted by Nestlé® Ice Cream- Main Street
4. Tiki Juice Bar, hosted by Dole Pineapple-Frozen Pinapple Pops- Adventureland
5. Mint Julep Bar-New Orleans Square
6. And last but not lease any street vendor- Nestle Chocolate Chip Ice cream Sandwich

Dinner is great as the sunsets and the lights come on Disneyland changes into a different world. It's like eating by candle light or like a picnic under the stars. your still have 4-6 hours until the park closes so it's time to relax a little and fill up because you have probably walk several miles and stood in line for more time than it took to walk there. Here's my dinner favs:

1. Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante, hosted by Ortega-BBQ and Mexican Food-Frontierland
2. Blue Bayou-( a late comer to the original restaurants) Fine dining Disney Style
3. Plaza Inn- Fried Chicken dinner (coleslaw with almonds)
4. Village Haus Restaurant, hosted by Minute Maid - great for the kids Mickey Chicken Nuggets. Fantasy land
5. A whole bunch of places in Downtown Disney!

Well our day of Disney Treats is almost over the rides have shut down and now the crowds stroll down through Main Street shopping and what getting snacks for the evening. Main street has so many places to pick up snacks and souvenirs that it's almost too much to name them but her we go:

1. Candy Palace and Candy Kitchen- Homemade candy while you watch
2. Market House- A great place to pick up treats to go -chocolate covered pretzels, hot coco and more
3. Speaking of Hot Coco - In the winter time they sell it from street vendors with whip cream NUM!
4. Popcorn Carts- Nuff Said
5. Gibson Girl and Main Street Cone Shop
6. And Finally you will always find a Churro stand in the town square in front of the Train Station.

Well I'm full now and all this talk of food has made me gain at least ten pounds. I'm sure I have left some stuff out and of course we haven't even begun to talk about Disney's California Adventure. I'm not big on candy myself but there are lots of places to buy it in Disneyland, Downtown Disney and DCA. One thing you will never find at any of the Disney parks is GUM. It too hard to clean up and gets on peoples shoes so if you bring some yourself make sure to use a trash can, by the way did you know that the trash cans are spaced apart from each other by how long it took Walt Disney to eat a hot dog. True Story.
