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!

NEWS! Disneyland Announces That Certain Entertainment Will Be Suspended Upon Reopening

As of today, Disneyland has proposed a plan for reopening!

Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle

Several days ago, we reported that signs indicated that Disneyland might reopen in July. And our suspicions were confirmed today when Disneyland proposed a reopening date of July 17th for both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure!

As with the reopening plan for Disney World, there will be a number of new health and safety measures implemented when the parks begin to welcome back guests.

As part of the new health and safety measures, experiences that draw large group gatherings like parades and nighttime spectaculars will be temporarily suspended. These performances will return at a later date, although an exact timeline has not been determined. This mirrors what we’ve seen announced for Disney World.

Character meet-and-greets will also be temporarily unavailable, although according to Disney, the characters will be in the parks, “in new ways to entertain and delight guests.”

The Disneyland reopening plan needs to be approved by the state and local governments before it is finalized, so we’ll continue to keep an eye out for any updates!

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

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! Disneyland Resort Will Require Guests to Make Theme Park Reservations Upon Reopening

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

ICYMI, it was JUST announced that Disneyland Resort has proposed dates to begin a phased reopening. Pending approvals by state and local government, both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure will open July 17th.

Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle

One of the safety measures in place upon the reopening of the parks will be limited guest capacity to promote physical distancing. And Disney has revealed that — as will be the case when Walt Disney World reopens its theme parks starting July 11th — Disneyland Resort will utilize a reservation system for guests.

The new theme park reservation system will require that all guests — including Annual Passholders — obtain a reservation to enter a park in advance of their visit to Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure. Reservations will be subject to availabilty.

Details have not yet been provided as to how the reservation system will work when the Walt Disney World theme parks reopen, and the same is the case for Disneyland Resort. Disney shares that “More details about this new reservation system will be available soon,” and we will share those with you right here as this story develops! In the meantime, you can learn more about the proposed plans for the reopening of Disneyland Resort — including the Resort hotels and the Downtown Disney District — here.

What do you think of the theme park reservation system announced so far? Please let us know with a comment!

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.

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