Foodie Guide to Food & Wine Marketplaces

During the Disney California Adventure Food & Wine festival, you can find food throughout the whole park at various marketplaces. Each marketplace has its own theme, and food to match the theme.

Pro-Tip: Some marketplaces are more popular than others and often have a long line to order the food. If you want to ‘skip’ the line, then order the food at a different marketplace, and then go to the pick up window of the marketplace that is offering the food item you wish. This is a little way to save some time.

All of these marketplaces will be available from February 28, 2025 until April 21, 2025. A few of them will have some food items available a bit longer (which will be noted).

Additionally, not all of the food items are available for the Sip & Savor Pass (more on the Sip & Savor Pass further down).

Now without further ado, let’s look at the different marketplaces and what each one has to offer!

DCA Food & Wine Food: Best Kid Menu Items

Now some of the restaurants around DCA do have some Food & Wine Festival kid menu items, however not all of them do. And we don’t want to forget about the little ones during the trip. So here are some items that are sure to have the little ones asking for more.

California Craft Brews

• Lemon Pepper Wings – served with garlic ranch Ⓝ Ⓢ

LA Style

• Western BBQ Burger Bao – with sweet barbecue sauce, Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon, and crispy onions Ⓝ Ⓢ

Sonoma Terrace

• Birria Mac & Cheese – served with onion-cilantro sauce and tortilla crunch Ⓝ Ⓢ

Clarabelle’s Hand-Scooped Ice Cream

DCA Food & Wine Sip and Savor Pass

With previous events, Disney has offered a Sip & Savor Pass. A Sip & Savor Pass is a pass offered during select Disneyland events that allows you to pay a flat rate for a certain number of vouchers valid for certain dishes.

The DCA Food & Wine Sip & Savor Pass this year (2025) offers a barcode for eight digital vouchers to try various items.

Now, if you’re thinking, “Red, that’s a lot of vouchers; there is no way I’m gonna use all of those,” Let me say that often, the portions when purchasing with the voucher are a bit smaller than normal, more like a sample size.

Additionally, the Sip & Savor Pass isn’t limited to just one person, so if you go with friends, you can all share a Sip & Savor Pass rather than everyone purchasing their own! This is an excellent way for everyone to save some money, too!

But if that seems too much, they offer a 4-voucher Sip & Savor Pass if that seems more doable for you.

DCA Food & Wine Festival Bookable Experiences

If the Food & Wine Festival sounds like something you want to explore, don’t worry—exceptional bookable experiences are only available during the festival!

These experiences are limited, so making a reservation is strongly encouraged.

So, for the ultimate foodies, if you’re looking to enhance your knowledge, you can book two different experiences.

Cocktails at Sonoma Terrace, hosted by CORKCICLE, where you can watch seminars highlighting various ciders, beers, and wine tasting. Or, if you’re more into pairings, you can check out Carthay Circle Receptions.

If you’re looking for DCA Food & Wine Festival experiences that don’t require a park ticket and reservation, head to Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. At GCH, you can enjoy a unique dining option called the Dinner and Scotch Event, which offers hors d’oeuvres, live music, and a four-course dinner paired with scotches.

Additionally, the popular A Walk On The Silverado Trail will return to GCH. Held at the Mariposa Pool Deck, it offers delicious culinary dishes paired perfectly with specialty wine.

Over at The Disneyland Hotel, there are mixology classes that you can take at Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar. Where you can learn to make some of the popular drinks at Trader Sam’s!

Again, these experiences are limited in space, so be sure to book your experience today so you don’t miss out.
