It’s no secret that if you asked us which Disney resort in the U.S. had the best food, we’d probably answer Disneyland. There’s just so MUCH good food to get there, including the BEST corn dogs, Mickey beignets, cheesy garlic pretzel bread, those chocolate chip cookies at Harbour Galley, and more. Disneyland knows how to do food.
