The Disneyland Resort has implemented a significant wave of price increases, this time affecting 13 table-service restaurants, lounges, and bars across the theme parks and resort hotels. The changes, which impact 291 menu items, come just weeks after the resort raised prices on hundreds of quick-service items, signaling a broader trend of rising costs for visitors .

The Scope of the Latest Price Hikes

The new price adjustments, first reported by the Disney planning site Mickey Visit, represent an average increase of about 6.5% across the affected locations . Disney officials confirmed the changes to KTLA, describing them as moderate increases of about $2 to $4, or roughly 5% to 10%, for some popular character dining experiences . The average price increase per item was about $1, with many food entrées rising by $2 to $3, while alcoholic beverages saw a notable uptick .

The increases were not uniform across the resort. In Disneyland Park, River Belle Terrace saw the highest average increase at 9.5%, followed by Café Orleans at 9.2%, Blue Bayou Restaurant at 9.0%, and Oga's Cantina at 4.1% . At Disney California Adventure, Magic Key Terrace and Carthay Circle Restaurant and Lounge recorded the highest average increases at 7.3%, followed by Lamplight Lounge and Boardwalk Dining at 6.6% and Wine Country Trattoria at 5.3% .

At the Disneyland Resort hotels, Hearthstone Lounge saw the highest average increase at 9.1%, followed by Broken Spell Lounge at 5.5%, Mendocino Terrace at 5.2%, GCH Craftsman Bar at 5.1%, and Palm Breeze Bar at 4.9% .

Key Price Changes: Entrées, Desserts, and Drinks

Entrées and Character Dining: Some of the most significant dollar increases were on food items, with 73 menu items increasing by a median of $2. The **Roasted Chicken** and **Market Fish** at Blue Bayou both increased by $4 . The popular Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures at Napa Rose rose from $149 to $152 per guest .

Alcoholic Beverages: The data shows a clear trend of rising drink prices. The median bar drink price increased from $20 to $21, with 41 drinks crossing the $20 threshold in this round of increases . At Lamplight Lounge, the **Cinnamon Toast Cocktail** increased from $19.25 to $22, and the **Latitude 33 Brewing Blood Orange IPA** rose from $12 to $15.75 . At Carthay Circle, three cocktails—the **Double Pear Martini**, **Tequila Daisy**, and **Aviation Cocktail**—increased from $22.25 to $24 each .

Desserts: The resort also raised prices on 42 dessert items, including cake pops, cupcakes, caramel apples, cookies, and candy, with an average increase of 9.5% . The median increase was $1 per item, with the largest jumps being a $1.70 increase for both Milk Chocolate Peanut Clusters and Peanut Brittle .

A Pattern of Increases and a Warning for Future Costs

These new increases follow a pattern established in previous years. Just two weeks prior, Disneyland raised prices on hundreds of quick-service items, including sodas, popcorn, churros, and other snacks . Historically, these summer food price adjustments have been followed by a more expansive annual price increase in the fall, which typically includes tickets, Magic Key passes, and other admission products like Lightning Lane Multi Pass and parking .

In 2025, the ticket price increase happened on October 8 . Given that the resort has not yet raised its 2026 ticket prices, the current wave of food and beverage increases is seen by industry observers as a strong signal that an official ticket price hike is imminent, likely within the next few months . For those planning a Disneyland vacation, purchasing tickets now before any official announcement is recommended to avoid the upcoming increases .

A "Balanced, Thoughtful Approach" or Rising Costs?

Disney officials stated they are taking a "balanced, thoughtful approach" to their pricing strategy and noted that many items remain below or in line with competitors . They highlighted that kids' offerings at both quick-service and table-service locations have not seen any price changes. Despite this, the cumulative effect of back-to-back price increases on food, drinks, and desserts is a clear financial strain for park-goers . As one source noted, "while many of these individual price increases for food items amount to $1, this will quickly add up for families purchasing meals throughout the day" . Guests looking to avoid the rising costs can bring outside food and nonalcoholic beverages into the park .
