McDonalds (yes I'm reviewing it).

Fact-File

Location: Disney Village
Type of Restaurant: Counter Service
Cost: 8-10 euro for an adult meal with a dessert. 5 euro for a children's meal.
Option to reserve a table: No
Character dining: No.


Well what can I say? I decided to review McDonalds today but this isn't a normal maccies. It's a magical McDonalds at Disneyland.

Well... it's not actually THAT magical. This restaurant is one of the least themed in the whole of the resort, in-fact for the large majority of you who have visited a McDonalds at least once in your life, this place will be very similar, if slightly larger and more French.

That being said, with the name like McDonalds, there are some things you can trust. Firstly, you can expect your favourite dishes such as chicken nuggets, Big Macs, Fillet O Fish (although they call it the original name of McFish here) and McFlurry ice-creams. For breakfast, you can expect things like pancakes and McMuffins. If you or your tiddlywink don't fancy change on your first day, this is good place to retreat to, especially during the daytime.

In addition, food here is a lot cheaper than it is in park, saving you on average of 5-6 euro a head. Making this an ideal place for people who want to do Disneyland Paris on a budget or as an emergency first/last meal if you're on the meal plan.

Also, despite it's popularity, food can be served here incredibly quickly. Especially if you use one of their electronic kiosks at the front of the store. Please note that these kiosks only take cards so if you're #TeamCash, you'll need to visit one of those counters with actual people serving you. Either way, you won't expect to wait any longer than 20 minutes during peak time for your dinner.

Whilst it's lack of theming is slightly disappointing, McDonalds at Disney Village offers a fantastic option for families who want to stick with what they know.

Final score 7.5/10

The Lucky Nugget Saloon

Fact-File Location: Disneyland Park/ Frontierland  Type of restaurant: Currently table service (I'll explain the currently in this review).  Cost: 23 euro for an adult combo meal, 13 euro for a children's meal and 8 euro for an afternoon treat. Option to reserve a table : No. Character Dining : Yes (signature experience only), Menus for anywhere change. This allows a fresh experience for the diners and thus allows more business for the restaurant. However, changing the type of restaurant you are is a completely different beast. During the last 5-10 years, The Lucky Nugget Saloon  has been a character dining buffet, a Tex-Mex buffet, a counter service eatery and now a table service restaurant that offers afternoon tea with the Disney characters.  This means that for the first time, I can't truly give you a 100% accurate review when it comes to the food because what I have personally experienced here, isn't recent enough to be justified with these new...

Cowboy Cookout Barbecue

Fact-file: Location: Frontierland/Disneyland Park Type of restaurant: Counter Service.  Cost: 13-16 euro for an adult combo meal, 9 euro for a children's meal and 6 euro for a coffee break. Option to reserve a table: No. Character Dining: No.  There is one counter service in Disneyland Park that is leaps and bounds above the rest. One that has some of the BEST food in the whole park for really good value. This honour belongs to Cowboy Cookout Barbecue . There are many reasons why I have a soft spot for this place. Firstly, it's atmosphere is one of, if not the best counter service in Disneyland Paris. It's a good old fashioned western barn on the outside and the inside is adorned with wooden chairs and benches. Cowboy Cookout looks amazing. I challenge anybody who says otherwise.
