Disneyland Dining on a Budget: 5 Best Places to Eat
Disneyland dining on a budget is easy, and you don't have to bring in your own food to save a few dollars either. There are plenty of affordable options.
When you plan a trip to Disneyland, one of the biggest factors you consider is going to be where you dine. There are plenty of top-notch signature and character restaurants to try out, but they don't do any favors for your budget. Luckily the resort has more food options than
just churros and popcorn for the budget-conscious. Disneyland dining on a budget is easy, and you don't have to bring in your own food to
save a few dollars either. These five quick-service locations at the Disneyland resort are ideal for saving a bit of money on food while
you are in the parks.
The Golden Horseshoe
This historic location is one of the best things to do when you decide to stop in Frontierland for a while. The open layout of the land
leads many people away from the square where the Golden Horseshoe stands. You can get yourself a fast bite at the stage door cafe,
but it's even better inside. Walt Disney loved this piece of Frontierland and had a private balcony for viewing the stage show which is
now open to all guests.

French Market
You can't go to New Orleans without eating some of the food. New Orleans Square has a variety of eats from soup and gumbo
in a bread bowl to The Blue Bayou. You can even pick up some specialty beignets at the Mint Julep Bar. If you are looking to sit
down to a hearty meal that doesn't break the bank, try out the French Market near the train station. There are plenty of good cajun
and creole inspired dishes and lots of seating with unique views of surrounding areas.

The Hungry Bear
This used to be a hidden gem in the back of the park before Galaxy's Edge opened up a thoroughfare alongside its dining areas.
The establishment has seating on upper and lower level decks. both overlook the greenery of Frontierland and the Rivers of America.
The food is plentiful for the price and the menu is always featuring something new and exciting. If you get a spot in the back of the
upper level, you can spot the Disneyland Railroad pass nearby every few minutes.
