food IS a theme park
When Halloween Time began last month in Disneyland Resort, we headed to the west coast to show you the best (and creepiest) eats. And what we found at Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta in Disney California Adventure Park was one of our favorites.

Aside from serving up some seriously sweet treats like Frosting Shots and Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches, Sprinkles Cupcakes is the go-to spot for, well, cupcakes in Disney Springs at Walt Disney World and at Downtown Disney at Disneyland.
Sprinkles in Disney Springs
And one thing we love about Sprinkles is that there is always something new and creative in the cupcake case.
We’re suckers for original Disneyland locales, and The Golden Horseshoe in Frontierland is one of those that totally steals our hearts. A mainstay of the park since day one, there’s plenty of lore about this now-quick service spot, including the presence of Walt’s personal box — at the right-most corner of the restaurant’s balcony — which is now open to the public.

We bid a sad kwaherini to our beloved Peanut Butter Brownie at the Mara at Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom Lodge this summer, but we’re thrilled to say: it’s back! But things aren’t precisely as they were. The original Peanut Butter Brownie was a dense chocolate brownie completely covered in creamy peanut butter frosting.

It’s Halloween Time at Disneyland Park, and even the extraterrestrials at Alien Pizza Planet are celebrating! (And, yup: Alien Pizza Planet is still a thing, hanging on even after the end of Pixar Fest!) So how do the Aliens get their ghouls on?

With Cosmic Chili Pasta! (What? Pasta isn’t the first thing you think of for Halloween? Well, we’ll just have to go with it because Aliens.) (Also: carbs.)
Walt Disney World’s Art of Animation Resort
is a truly larger-than-life hotel with a food court that’s big on color and unique dishes.

It’s that time of the year: pumpkin has firmly infiltrated all aspects of dining at Walt Disney World from pumpkin spice beverages to snacks and sweets (including this fabulous Pumpkin Spice Beignet at Port Orleans!).
And in Walt Disney World’s Disney Springs, a pop-up bar in the Town Center neighborhood is serving Pumpkin-Filled Churros!

The Town Center Pop Up Bar was primarily a beverage cart until the recent additions of churros and pretzels. [Read more…]
Disney California Adventure Park’s Paradise Garden Grill
is always game for a food celebration, and Halloween Time is no exception! As was the case for Pixar Fest and last year’s Dia de los Muertos, the menu here is an ode to Coco and features flavors from south of the border!

It’s officially fall — and you know what that means: pumpkin spice everything everywhere in Walt Disney World! 😉
And if you enjoy a beignet or two while you’re in the World, you’ll want to scoot yourself over to Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory in Disney World and Mint Julep Bar in Disneyland for Pumpkin Spice Mickey Beignets!

You might recall when Disneyland Resort’s Village Haus was shrouded in Beauty and the Beast details and renamed Red Rose Taverne, but what might surprise you is that the shroud remains intact! Red Rose Taverne is still very much a part of the park’s Fantasyland, and — as such — it’s also getting in the Halloween Time spirit!
