Breakfast – Magic Mouse Press

As a Walt Disney World veteran turned Disneyland annual passholder, I was shocked to find out that there are no counter service locations in the Disneyland theme parks selling Mickey waffles. If you want that classic Mickey waffle to start your day the right way, you have to work a little bit harder for it in Disneyland. I searched all over for Mickey waffles at Disneyland on several past trips, and spent hours combing through every online review I could find about these waffles. This article is a summation of all of that (sooo very difficult) research. You can get Mickey waffles at the Disneyland Resort at these locations: Disneyland: Carnation Cafe Plaza Inn Character BuffetDisney’s Grand Californian Hotel: GCH Craftsman Grill (kid’s menu only) Storytellers Cafe Character BuffetDisneyland Hotel: Goofy’s Kitchen Character BuffetSteakhouse 55 (kid’s menu only)Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel: PCH Grill Character Buffet Surfside Lounge (kid’s menu only)Room Service at any of the Disneyland Resort hotels Keep reading for all of the detailed information about the mickey waffles at each location. Including pricing, exactly what to order, and how to find each of these locations. I have also included some other Mickey waffle alternative options to consider at the end. Like some Lightning McQueen waffles, or Mickey-shaped specialty “tangaroa” toast.
