Disneyland Watering Holes, Best Places For A Drink Near The Park
Disneyland has long been considered ‘the Happiest Place on Earth’ for children and adults alike. But if, as a grown up, you’ve always secretly thought that a refreshing cocktail would make those long lines more bearable, rest assured you’re not the only one. Take a look at this guide to your happy hour oases hidden in this magical amusement park.
1. Hearthstone Lounge – Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa
Bar, Cocktail Bar, American
2. Trader Sam's Enchanted Tiki Bar – Disneyland Hotel
Bar, American
If the Enchanted Tiki Room, with its singing tropical birds, is your favorite Disneyland attraction, the grown-up version of you will squeal in delight inside Trader Sam’s. Stepping into this bar feels like a jungle getaway, and ordering certain drinks will even cause lightning to erupt from the decorative ceiling. While a bit on the smaller side, the outside patio with its tiki torches will get you in the mood for a fruity drink and some hula dancing. Try the HippopotoMai-Tai; with its colorful mix of rum and curaçao you may get just as tongue-tied as you do pronouncing that name.
3. Napa Rose – Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa
Restaurant, Bar, American, Vegetarian, Vegan
4. Cove Bar – Disney's California Adventure Paradise Pier
Bar, Restaurant, American
Uva Bar – Downtown Disney
While Uva Bar may not have any Disney-themed drinks, the Disney innovation is still present at this open-air bar. You get a 360-degree view of the shops in the bustling Downtown Disney District, thanks to its central location, and a glimpse of the evening fireworks display if you’re lucky. Try Uva Bar’s take on a michelada, a tomato and lime Latin drink that gets an upgrade with those ingredients frozen into a ‘Diablo Pop.’ Simply drop the pop into your choice of beer and enjoy the citrus-y goodness.
