We can’t believe ALL the locations that opened in Disney Springs today. These locations include Pin Traders, Goofy’s Candy Company, The Art of Disney, Days of Christmas, Candy Cauldron, Ever After, Dockside Margaritas and DisneyStyle.

But before we press on, we must interrupt our regularly scheduled broadcast with a very important SNACK BREAK!

We were standing right by The Landing’s Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Company when our appetites got the better of us today! And look at what we spotted in their bakery case — a new Pride Month DONUT!!!

Pride Month Donut

Donut King, a big-time coffee and donut chain, supplies all Joffrey’s locations with their donuts, so you know they’re the REAL DEAL! For $4.99 we scored this massive yeast donut today topped with a beautiful rainbow of frosting!

The donut is plain while the frosting is vanilla so not a lot of complexity going on here. But the donut we got was nice and fresh! We thought it had a great texture and tasted like everything you could want out of a good donut DONE RIGHT!

The barista we spoke with said they’ll be stocking the Pride Month Donut through June 28th, so hurry on down to snag yours before then! And don’t forget to swing by the Marketplace’s Starbucks to try their new Love is Love Drink which you can read our review of here!

Are you excited about the Pride Month Donut? Let us know if you’ll be getting one (or two…or a dozen!) in the comments below!

Disneyland FINALLY has a proposed reopening date!

After days of speculation, Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure have proposed to reopen on July 17th!

BUT, if you don’t already have tickets to visit the Happiest Place on Earth, you’re out of luck for now. According to an announcement from Disneyland, there is now a temporary pause on new ticket sales, Annual Pass sales, and renewals.

While Disney has yet to offer up more details on what this entails, this is a similar situation to what we saw when Walt Disney World announced it planned to reopen its theme parks on July 11th.

Early Morning at Cinderella Castle

Disney World temporarily paused new ticket sales and Disney Resort hotel reservations ahead of its reopening to focus on guests whose vacations had been postponed due to the theme parks’ extended closure, and it seems like Disneyland is following suit.

Disney California Adventure Main Entrance

Also like Disney World, capacity at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure will be limited upon reopening, and a new theme park reservation system will require all guests to reserve park entry in advance…including Annual Passholders (again, like we’ve seen in Disney World).

Disneyland Annual Passes

More details about the reservation system, ticket sales and more will be available soon. Stay tuned here for updates!

Do you have tickets or a Disneyland Annual Pass you’re planning to use when the theme parks reopen? Let us know in the comments!

NEWS! THIS Hotel is NOT Listed in the Reopening Plans for Disneyland Resort!

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 10, 2020

BIG news today for Disney fans: Disneyland has proposed a reopening!

The Disneyland Hotel

Disneyland Resort has been pretty hush-hush about reopening plans, until today! Disney just announced a proposed reopening plan for a phased return to business. Still, though the plan lists the reopening dates for most of the segments of the resort, including Downtown Disney, one piece of Disneyland is notably missing.

Where is the Disneyland Hotel in the plans?! Downtown Disney District is set to open July 9th, Disneyland and Disney California Adventure Park are set to open July 17th, and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa and Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel are set to open July 23rd; but there is no mention of Disneyland Hotel.

It appears that Disneyland Hotel is not announced as opening in the initial phase. According to Disney, “The Disneyland Hotel will open at a later date. Plans to support physical distancing as well as increased cleaning measures, along with a number of other health and safety protocols, will be implemented as part of the phased reopening of our hotels and the Disney Vacation Club.”

We’re not sure why the hotel has been left out, but we’ll keep you in the loop on all of the coming news about Disneyland’s reopening as soon as more information is shared. Hopefully, we’ll soon be sliding down that monorail slide again!

NEWS! Downtown Disney’s Reopening Date Revealed!

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 10, 2020

Recently, Disneyland has continued to extend its closures by canceling hotel reservations through the end of May and halting dining experiences until July.

Downtown Disney

However, Disney World has already started to reopen its Disney Springs locations in phases while its theme parks will reopen on July 11th and July 15th. Now Disney has just announced when Downtown Disney, along with Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure Park, and Disneyland Resort hotels will be reopening!

Starting July 9th, Downtown Disney will start to reopen with the new health and safety guidelines issued by the state of California. At this time we don’t know which shopping and dining experiences will be available but Disney has stated that World of Disney will be among the stores that will reopen on July 9th.

Upon reopening, Downtown Disney will operate with increased health and safety protocols for both guests and employees which Disney will provide more details about soon. So far, they’ve stated they will “promote physical distancing and cleanliness throughout the Downtown Disney District”.

World of Disney in Disneyland Resort

From our recent experience at the reopening of Disney Springs, we expect Downtown Disney will have similar capacity limitations, mandatory health screenings, reduced operating hours and may require all guest to wear face masks for the duration of their stay, although we’ll await final word from Disney regarding which modifications and safety precautions they’ll be implementing.

Catal and UVA Bar

We’ll continue to provide updates on which restaurants and stores will be opening and additional safety precautions that Disney announces.

Which locations would you like to see open back up in Downtown Disney? Let us know in the comments below!

Along with reopening dates, Disneyland has also proposed a few of their reopening procedures, many of which are very similar to what Disney World will implement when its parks reopen in July.

At this time, Disney World has paused ticket sales and hotel reservations. And once the parks reopen the Disney Dining Plan, FastPass+, fireworks, character meet and greets, extra magic hours, and more when the parks reopen. Disney World will also implement a new reservation system.

Disneyland Theme Park Reopening Details

Disneyland has JUST shared that they too will implement a brand new reservation system to assist with park capacity limitations. According to Disney, this new reservation system will require ALL guests including Annual Passholders, to obtain an advance reservation for park entry. These are of course, subject to availability. There will be limitations on parking and operating hours as well.

Disneyland Resort has also shared that ALL new ticket sales and Annual Passport sales and renewals are paused for the time being.

And, as we mentioned above with Disney World, Disneyland will also pause parades, nighttime spectaculars, and character meets and greets for the time being. Characters will still be in the parks, they will just entertain guests in new ways!

Certain attractions, experiences, services, and amenities will be modified, have limited availability, or remain closed when the parks reopen as well.

Disneyland Hotel Reopening Details

Disneyland Hotel will open at a later date according to the Disneyland website. When it comes to the hotels that are reopening, Disney has shared that they plan to “support physical distancing as well as increased cleaning measures, along with a number of other health and safety protocols, will be implemented as part of the phased reopening of the hotels and the Vacation Club.”

Do keep in mind that these dates and procedures need to be approved by the state and local government before being finalized.
