Carnation Cafe

Carnation Cafe

Ranked #2 of 17 Table Service Options at Disneyland
Located in Main Street, U.S.A. at Disneyland

Last updated: August 20, 2025

At a Glance
We think the Carnation Café is still a place where the adults can find a decent plate, the kids can choose from their favorites, and it’s easy on the wallet. Because of its location along Main Street, close to bathrooms and across from the locker facility, it gets busy. Service is friendly and unusually patient; someone’s briefed these young cast members on how an hour’s wait and low blood sugar can quickly erode a diner’s mood. Once you’re seated, the order comes quickly and with a smile.

What’s it like inside?

A Main Street staple for decades, the Carnation Café serves up an American menu heavy with traditional favorites—hamburgers and fried chicken sandwiches, Mickey-shaped waffles, and fried chicken—in a parlor circa 1890.

What are the specialties?

The loaded baked potato soup (a hot, creamy concoction with Cheddar cheese, chives, and large chunks of baked potato) is a favorite.
