  • I too was very excited to look through the seasonal goodies, however I’m now disappointed bordering on irritated that there are ZERO plant based options apart from sweets on the holiday menu. We are slated to visit Christmas Eve. C’mon Disneyland, I thought you were better than this.

  • Where are the vegetarian/plant based options? As a foodie I am super excited to try the snacks and desserts but I am quite disappointed by the lack of meal options for guests with dietary restrictions.

  • So excited for Merriest Nights! However, I’m very disappointed, as usual, that other than some themed drinks and co*cktails, and the sourdough bread loafs, there are no plant-based/vegan holiday options. Also, I believe those very few options are only at DCA. I would love to be able to have, at minimum, a holiday treat while strolling Main Street!
