Mickey Mouse and his best pals are returning to breakfast at Chef Mickey’s restaurant in Disney’s Contemporary Resort on December 16, bringing some new items to the menu inspired by their favorite dishes.
Along with traditional breakfast favorites, you will be able to try the new Mickey’s “Celebration” Pancake, featuring whipped cream, celebration sprinkles, shimmering pixie dust and more.
For something a bit more savory, we’re adding a new “Loaded” Potato-Cheese Casserole topped with smoked bacon crumbles and chives.
Last but not least, Goofy’s Banana Bread French Toast will combine unique flavors of banana bread baked in zesty orange-scented French toast batter, topped with Espresso-mascarpone cream, toasted bananas and chocolate crumbles.
If you can’t decide on which new item to try, you’ll be able to taste all three as part of an all-you-care-to-eat family style feast with other traditional breakfast favorites.
When Mickey and friends return, the experience may look a little different than the last time you visited, but you can still expect to smile, wave and make unforgettable memories with some of your favorite characters as they parade through the restaurant in their chef’s best.
Reservations for Chef Mickey’s character breakfast will open on October 17, based on availability. In addition, Disney Resort hotel guests can make reservations up to 60 days in advance plus the length of their stay (up to 10 days). For more information, please click here.
Inspired by the rich autumn hues of orange, yellow and purple, the Downtown Disney District at the Disneyland Resort is brimming with pumpkin products, clothing, accessories, novelties and home décor to carry you away in the coziness of fall and the fun-filled, spooky spirit of Halloween!
The latest locale you can find many of these cool collections is at a new extension of the Downtown Disney District: the Disneyland Resort Backlot Premiere Shop, coming soon to Stage 17 (after walking through Downtown Disney, you can find the entrance located at the east side of the Main Entrance esplanade). Here, you’ll have yet another spacious place to browse your same favorite seasonal merchandise from World of Disney and other select Disney shops.
Check-out a few of these must-haves!
World of Disney and the Disneyland Resort Backlot Premiere Shop at Stage 17
With a wide array of Halloween items for every ghoul and boy, always popular are mini backpacks by Loungefly and candy-swirl Minnie Mouse ears. You can also find plush, mugs, trading pins, glow ears and necklaces, as well as apparel and accessories from “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas,” Disney and Pixar “Coco” and the Haunted Mansion, too!
California Sole
Step into a great selection of shoes and sandals, in a variety of fall styles and colors, for the whole family. Whether you’re strolling the Downtown Disney District or cruising the California coastline, OluKai’s Pehuea Lī ‘lli’s classic style and premium full-grain leather sneakers ensures you can comfortably slide from one adventure to the next.

Reminiscent of fall foliage, Sugarboo & Co. has a new line of pressed botanicals that you can use in a variety of ways for gifts or special touches for your home. These can be added to zinc frames along with a 365 inspirational quote, or used for scrapbooking. Each botanical package includes an uplifting quote with a choice of eight different botanicals including white lace flower, fern, pisum leaf, daisy flower, sage, forget-me-not flower and pansy flower.

You may choose to provide your name and mobile phone number to receive a text message for a two-hour window in which you may return.**

What are you carving out for your Halloween shopping wish list? We have a spine-tingling feeling you will find it in the Downtown Disney District!

Disney Parks Blog is launching a new, four-part series of Disney Paper Parks inspired by Halloween and the Haunted Mansion! The printable activity sheets help guests bring a piece of the Disney Parks into your own homes, complete with instructions about how to create 3D versions of some of your favorite aspects of Disney Parks.
Today’s part-one release includes Haunted Mansion home decorations! Bring the macabre style of the Haunted Mansion into your home by printing out and crafting these spooky decorations that appeal to a variety of ages and skills. From the bats atop the queue stanchions to paper chains inspired by the Haunted Mansion’s wallpaper, the finishes will set the mood of the mansion in your home.
You also can use this release to transform your home with the spirits of the mansion using grinning ghosts shadow puppets! Just as the Haunted Mansion is filled with illusions, the shadow puppets include rotating hand shadows, the Hitchhiking Ghosts, the Hatbox Ghost, and more (there’s always room for one more).
There are other fun surprises in the activity sheets, as well. The sheets were created for the Disney Parks Blog by talented Imagineers Stephanie Jazmines and Amy Young, and require the use of scissors, glue and folding along dotted lines in specific directions.
For best results, we recommend printing the sheets at their actual size, not scaling them to fit the page. We also recommend adult participation or supervision for those with little ones to help make this great activity even more enjoyable. Have fun and stay tuned for more Disney Paper Parks: Halloween Edition activity sheets!
