Royal Street Veranda
It is not often that my hubby and I will visit Disneyland and not get clam chowder/gumbo in sourdough bowls. The Royal Street Veranda is located in New Orleans square, right around the corner from my favorite ride. These bowls are one of the cheaper meal options at Disneyland, especially if you share a drink.

The Golden Horseshoe and Stage Door Cafe
This two are kitty corner to each other and sell some of the same food items. The Stage Door Cafe is a walk up service, while the Golden Horseshoe has more of a restaurant feel. They serve things like chicken strips and corn dogs, fish and chips, and funnel cakes. The chicken strips are our favorite, and you get to pick your own dipping sauce for them. I like to get mine with apple slices instead of fries so I don't feel like I'm eating too many calories all in one sitting.

Redd Rockett's Pizza Port
This place has a lot of options if you're looking for something in the pizza/pasta area. It's cafeteria style, so you go up to the counter and grab your dish(es) and pay for it at the front register. They have yummy pizza flavors, really good pastas and salads, and bread with dipping sauce. It's a little more pricey than some of the other places we typically go to, but the food is really good.
Bengal Barbecue
This place is a new favorite. We just ate there for the first time on our last trip. They have yummy kabobs in quite a few different options (including an all-veggie one). We ordered three each and my hubby said he could have eaten three more...so they aren't very filling for everyone...but I was perfectly happy with the amount I had. And they are pretty inexpensive if you only get a few.
Blue Bayou
This is our treat place. We have been there four times now and it's been an amazing experience every time. We like to request waterfront seating so we are closer to the boats that go by in Pirates of the Caribbean. I like to get the Surf and Turf, which happens to be the most delicious meal I've ever had. I love it! Josh likes to try different things when we go. Be prepared to spend around $100 for two people for dinner. Since we typically go to Disneyland for our anniversary, it's how we specifically celebrate our special day.
Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante
This place has the best Mexican food ever! It's so yummy and I love the ambiance of the place. Burritos, tacos, and enchiladas...oh my! Such a fun place, especially if you want to sit and take a little break for a bit.
For a yummy snack, we have a few favorites as well:
Frozen lemonade, hot chocolate and churro stands
You can find these places throughout the park. Some of them used to be a little different in price (like maybe a 50 cent difference) and we would always go to the cheapest one we could find. Frozen lemonade is my favorite when it's warm out, and churros are good any time of the day...even for breakfast. Of course, hot chocolate is best on those cold nights. On our last trip, I think we got a hot chocolate every single night...just to keep our hands warm!
Gibson Girl Ice Cream
This place makes the best sundaes! They are seriously amazing and so big. I usually never finish mine. But I can't resist getting them. We haven't gotten them on the last couple of trips, either because it was closed for refurbishment or because it was too cold. But on the warmer days, it's the absolute best treat in the park.
The Lucky Fortune Cookie
This place is not our favorite to actually eat at (we've tried it twice and been disappointed both times), but they have edamame...and that happens to be one of our favorite snacks! If you are craving something healthy and a little different from the norm, I definitely suggest getting some edamame.
Tropical Imports
Even though there are many fruit carts around the park now, this is one of the first places I really remember seeing a lot of fresh produce at. My goal on this last trip was to eat a little healthier (even though I didn't do a very good job), and it's going to be my goal on my next trips. These carts and locations have apples and bananas and oranges and even hummus!
Fiddler, Fifer, and Practical Cafe
This is a new favorite of mine because they sell Starbucks! And not only do they sell Starbucks, they accept Starbucks gift cards and you can use your Disney Visa or Annual Pass to get a discount! It has a very old-fashioned feel and has some of the greatest drinks I've ever tasted. They also had Pumpkin Spice and many of the other seasonal drinks when we went on our last trip, which makes it even better!
And that about sums it up! Next time, we will be talking about my favorite shows to catch at the Disneyland resort.
