A trip to Disneyland Resort is about to cost you a little extra, especially if you enjoy sitting down for a relaxing meal or grabbing a handcrafted cocktail inside the parks. For the second time in less than a month, Disney has adjusted its food and beverage pricing, hitting guests with a fresh round of menu price increases across sit-down dining locations.
Earlier in July 2026, visitors felt the sting of a major quick-service price hike, where more than 800 snacks, drinks, and counter-service meals saw an average cost increase of 8.1%. Now, a late-July wave of adjustments has targeted the resort's sit-down restaurants, hotel lounges, and bars.
Here is a breakdown of Disneyland’s latest dining price increases, which restaurants were hit the hardest, and how these changes will affect your vacation budget.
Table Service Prices Rise by 6.5% On Average
Data tracked by Theme Park IQ reveals that Disney implemented 291 individual menu price adjustments across 13 sit-down locations in Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure, and the Disneyland Resort hotels.
Of those 291 changes, 288 items increased in price, with the overall average hike hovering around 6.5%. While the median price jump was $1.00 per item, the compound effect of appetizers, entrées, and drinks can quickly add $10 to $20 to a meal for a family of four.
Only three items across all 13 locations actually went down in price—specifically, the Red and White Sangrias and the Aperol Spritz at Wine Country Trattoria.
Which Restaurants Saw the Highest Increases?
The recent menu adjustments were not uniform across every location. Depending on where you make your dining reservations, you may notice a steeper price increase on your final bill.
Here is how the 13 affected table-service restaurants and lounges rank by their average percentage price increase:
- River Belle Terrace: +9.5%
- Café O Caféns: +9.2%
- Hearthstone Lounge: +9.1%
- Blue Bayou Restaurant: +9.0%
- Magic Key Terrace: +7.3%
- Carthay Circle Lounge and Restaurant: +7.3%
- Lamplight Lounge and Boardwalk Dining: +6.6%
- Broken Spell Lounge: +5.5%
- Wine Country Trattoria: +5.3%
- Mendocino Terrace: +5.2%
- GCH Craftsman Bar: +5.1%
- Palm Breeze Bar: +4.9%
- Oga’s Cantina: +4.1%
While GCH Craftsman Bar landed near the bottom in terms of percentage increase (+5.1%), it saw the highest total volume of menu adjustments, with 57 items changing price.
Cocktails Smashed Through the $20 Barrier.
Adult beverages accounted for nearly half of the total price adjustments during this wave. A total of 138 cocktails and beers saw price increases, pushing dozens of popular drinks past a significant financial milestone.
Before this latest update, there were 77 bar drinks priced at $20 or higher across these 13 dining spots. Following the price increase, that number spiked to 118. Forty-one individual cocktails that previously cost between $18.00 and $19.75 now cost $20 or more.
For instance, at Carthay Circle, signature offerings like the Tequila Daisy, Double Pear Martini, and Aviation Cocktail all jumped from $22.25 to $24.00.
Character Meals & Entertainment Packages Jump
Specialty dining experiences also saw noticeable bumps. The popular character breakfast at Plaza Inn rose to $58 for adults (up from $55) and $35 for children (up from $33). At the Disneyland Hotel, Goofy’s Kitchen saw its dinner service jump by $7, bringing the adult price to $76 and the child price to $43.
Nighttime spectacular dining packages felt an even bigger pinch. The World of Color Dining Package at Storytellers Café is $86 for adults (up from $79) and $53 for children (up from $44)—a massive 20.5% jump for kids.
What This Means for Your Next Trip
With both quick-service and table-service menus increasing prices in just a few weeks, guests planning an upcoming trip should prepare for higher dining costs. Reviewing updated menus on the Disneyland app before your trip can help you budget accurately and avoid surprises when the bill arrives.
