The Reservation Revolution
For years, Lamplight Lounge’s Boardwalk Dining area has been a first-come, first-served operation. While this allows for some flexibility, it has also meant long lines and waits, especially during the busier seasons. If you’ve ever visited Disneyland Resort and tried to dine at Lamplight Lounge, you may have faced the frustrating reality of not getting a spot – even when you had your heart set on it.
That’s all about to change! Starting June 27, Lamplight Lounge will begin accepting reservations for the Boardwalk Dining area, with bookings opening on June 26.
This is huge news for guests who have always dreamed of experiencing this beloved restaurant but struggled to secure a table.
What You Need to Know
With the addition of reservations, guests will be able to secure their spot at Lamplight Lounge up to 60 days in advance, ensuring a smooth and predictable dining experience. However, while reservations are highly recommended – especially given the current busy summer season and Disneyland’s 70th anniversary celebrations – they are not required. If you prefer to leave things a bit more spontaneous, the walk-up waitlist via the Disneyland app will still be available.
The reservation system promises to make dining at Lamplight Lounge more accessible, especially for those who prefer to plan their day ahead of time. This shift will allow guests to enjoy a stress-free meal in one of the park’s most stunning settings without the uncertainty of long waits or the need to rush to secure a table.
Why This Is a Game-Changer
For Disneyland visitors who want to enjoy a relaxing meal at Lamplight Lounge, this change is a game-changer. The added convenience of reservations will make it easier to plan your day, whether you’re dining with family, friends, or just taking a solo break from the hustle and bustle of the park.
Plus, Lamplight Lounge isn’t just a place to eat – it’s an experience. The vibrant atmosphere, delicious menu, and picturesque views make it a highlight of any Disneyland visit. Whether you’re dining indoors or enjoying the outdoor seating, you’re in for a treat.
With the reservation system officially launching soon, now is the perfect time to start planning your next Disneyland trip. Lamplight Lounge is an experience like no other, and with reservations on the horizon, it will be even easier to enjoy a meal at this Disney hotspot.
