Where To Get Christmas Dinner at Disneyland and Walt Disney World

The holiday season at the Disney Parks is extremely magical, especially on Christmas day. What better way to spend Christmas than at the most magical place on Earth with your family and friends? Disney magic will enhance the experience of the holiday and you will be immersed in the spirit of Christmas with all the decorations, food and drinks, experiences, characters, and so much more. You don’t even need to worry about missing out on a great Christmas dinner because so many restaurant will take care of the cooking for you and give you a memorable feast. Here are a list of some of our favorite restaurants that are serving Christmas dinner:

Disneyland 

Napa Rose (Grand Californian Hotel)

Craving a Golden State-inspired feast? From 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM on December 25, you can enjoy a Christmas dinner like no other—the fabulous Four Course Wine Country Holiday Favorites, a menu co-authored by Chef Andrew Sutton and Chef Gloria Tae. That just sounds perfectly amazing already! It is a perfect opportunity to season the occasion while relishing in unforgettable California flavors. The dinner is $135 per adult and those 21 and over can add a special wine flight for an extra $55. A children’s menu will also be available (ages 3 to 9).

Goofy’s Kitchen (Disneyland Hotel)

Goofy’s Kitchen is one of my top favorite character dining spots at Disneyland. They always have the best array of food at their buffets and the characters that parade through are always so engaging and so much fun. This year, they will also be offering a Christmas dinner buffet (Christmas brunch buffet will also be available) from 1:30 PM to 9:00 PM. Pricing for adults is $75 and $35 for kids (ages 3-9), plus tax and gratuity.

The buffet menu will feature holiday favorites, including:

  • Leg of lamb
  • Carved turkey
  • Prime sirloin
  • Shrimp cocktail
  • Crab cakes
  • Assorted pies and special holiday desserts
  • An array of classic comfort foods, both hot and cold

Storyteller’s Cafe

Storyteller’s Cafe is another favorite of mine especially because of the ambience. It has such classic, folklore vibes and the food is absolutely amazing. This dining spot is a bit more kid friendly than Napa Rose and they have food options for everyone. On December 25 Storyteller’s Cafe will be offering both a Christmas brunch buffet (from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM) and a Christmas dinner buffet 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Adults are $75 and kids 3-9 are $35, not including tax and gratuity.

The buffet menu will feature holiday favorites, including:

  • Carved turkey
  • Cranberry sauce
  • Roasted ribeye
  • Shrimp cocktail
  • Crab cakes
  • Assorted pies and special holiday desserts
  • An array of classic comfort foods, both hot and cold

Walt Disney World

Steakhouse 71

When you think of Christmas dinner usually the first thought wouldn’t be to go to a steakhouse, but over at Steakhouse 71 at Disney’s Contemporary Resort you will find that the chefs have put together a delectable holiday menu just for you! It’s a stylish but casual steakhouse so you can dress nice for Christmas dinner without having to go over the top fancy. Kind of nice huh? On Christmas Day they will be serving selections from the dinner menu from 11:30 AM to 10:00 PM. starting from 11:30 AM to 10:00 PM.
