REVIEW: Is Red Rose Taverne The Best Breakfast in Disneyland?

Red Rose Taverne is a quick service restaurant located in Fantasyland at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. During the day this Beauty and the Beast-themed eatery serves burgers and flatbreads, but in this review we’ll be taking a look at the breakfast menu. First up is a longtime Disneyland classic, the Mickey Mouse Pancake. This fan favorite entree has changed dining locations several times over the decades, but is now served exclusively at Red Rose Taverne.

Here’s the pancake without the included sausage (you can ask for bacon if you’re not in to sausage). The Mickey Pancake has changed a bit. Previously a pineapple mouth, blueberry eyes, and a cherry nose were included.  I improvised and made my own Mickey face using the included sausage and berry compote. Hopefully you don’t see this face in your dreams tonight.

The pancake has received an upgrade over its previous versions. It’s much thicker than it was before. 

Beast’s Breakfast Burger contains a 1/3 lb. angus patty, bacon-orange marmalade, egg, hash brown, and arugula.

Beast’s Breakfast Burger is tasty and substantial. Not that you need any excuse to eat a hamburger for breakfast during your vacation, but having “Breakfast” in the name of the entree immediately gives you the green light to do so and not receive any judgment from your family.

The Garden Vegetable Hash includes quinoa, roasted mushrooms and cauliflower, arugula, tomato, potatoes, and spicy lime aïoli.I enjoyed this healthier alternative to the burger and pancake, although it was a bit dry and I wish there were more veggies.

Is Red Rose Taverne the best breakfast in Disneyland? Yes! The three entrees in this post are all solid and I think most families will find one thing they like. But I will say that there’s not much to chose from in terms of breakfast in Disneyland right now. It’s also debatable if you should even waste time sitting down for a breakfast and use precious morning touring hours when the wait times are at their lowest.
