Parkside Market

I'm an avid Disneyland fan and I've enjoyed all of my experiences at Parkside Market. The team throughout the space has been kind and accommodating every time I've come.The Vista Bar on the second floor is such a great addition to my adventures. The bartenders are phenomenal, both in talent and in service, and the view is so lovely! Timmy, Heber, and Ashley keep the vibes going and make the experience unforgettable. Add Vista to your next Disney visit and you won't be sorry!Another bonus at Parkside is the ability to order food from the downstairs vendors anywhere in the space. My faves include the specialty flight from Sip and Sonder, dumplings from Seoul Sister, and chicken sandwich from GG's, and those are just the tip of the iceberg!I highly recommend Parkside as a great cross between quick service and table service. As a bonus, check the entertainment schedule for the Downtown Disney stage for an amazing viewing location.

Came to Disneyland today and was excited to try this place out. While the space itself is beautiful, lunch itself was extremely disappointing. I got the Kale and Brussels salad and my mom got the Three Crispy Chicken Strips with Waffle Fries from GG's Chicken Shop after a long wait (they had one cashier waiting on a huge line; at one point, my mom was actually asked to go to Seoul Sister to order her food because it was so long...where whoever rung her up ultimately gave her the wrong number for her food.)None of the individual ingredients seemed to compliment one another in my salad, and the honey lemon dressing (while delicious) didn't seem to do much for it after I mixed that in, either. Just felt...overly raw and crunchy? I also asked to add fried chicken on top and thought the restaurant was going to add it as chunks or strips, but was disappointed when they literally just served me a slab of chicken on the side that I had to add myself. And my God, was that chicken the worst part. It wasn't very hot and to add insult to injury, it was EXTREMELY bland. It was literally just plain chicken breast dipped in generic batter. And my mom's chicken tenders tasted exactly the same. Where's the seasoning??? My mom's Waffle Fries (also bland and cold) came with some ranch that was decent, so we were dipping everything in that just to get even a hint of flavor.The space itself is very cute and I would come back to give the other options a try and to have a drink at the beautiful bar upstairs, but holy cow, do yourself a favor and avoid the Chicken Shop. I haven't felt this disappointed by food in a long time.

I tried something from all of the vendors at Parkside market for the first time today and it's tough to review because my opinion on each places is quite different. I will note though that for the market as a whole, it is disappointing to find such few plant-based options, and it is also a big downside that there are only 2 individual restrooms on either floor. Throughout my visit, the line was too long, and twice I had to seek a restroom elsewhere (the one next to Din Tai Fung isn't too far).-Sip & Sonder: 4/5 stars and offers a variety of beverages with several non-dairy milks to choose from, as well as some food items. My friend tried the vegan sausage breakfast sandwich and really enjoyed it. I tried their oat milk latte cold brew which was not for me, as well as a cappuccino with oat milk that I really enjoyed. They charge an extra $.75 for nondairy milk and I feel strongly that this should be listed on the menu. Currently, both the printed and TV menus show no added charge next to the non-dairy options.-GG's Chicken Shop: 0/5 stars and destined to be very icky for a vegan such as myself, but it would have been really nice to find a plant-based chicken option here. It is so easy to find plant-based tenders or patties at grocery stores nowadays and it would have been great to find a sandwich option here. The one plant based option they have is brussels sprouts and sadly they were so so bad. I love citrus but the acidity in the brussels sprouts was so overpowering that I couldn't take more than one bite. -Seoul Sister: 5/5 stars purely based on the japchae noodles in the tofu bowl! They were flavorful and had the perfect texture. The tofu bowl also had kale, greens, carrots, avocado, and crispy tofu. The only thing I think this bowl is really missing is broccoli and green onions. Green onions are a must and thankfully, they gave me a side of them. The sauce is a little spicy for me but I mixed a little bit with the garlic soy sauce (that I was charged $1 for without being told) and it was delicious!-Vista Parkside Market: 3/5 stars. I absolutely love the ambience and design of this bar on the second floor. It is so cute! Originally, it was really frustrating to find that it was not very wheelchair accessible but I was told that a set of tables had been moved too close to the bar and they later shifted them so I could get over to the bathroom. All of the employees were really nice but service was lacking in the sense that it seemed very understaffed and it was so hard to find people to wave down to order or to get our check. We tried 3 of the mocktails on this visit and they were ok. We most enjoyed the slushy mocktail which we thought was going to come in a flamingo glass but only upon asking later did we find out that we can only get that glass if sitting at the bar. We wish that this had been told to us when we ordered the drink. This is one of my largest critiques of the experience today - lack of communication all around--Here are some things we were not told that in my opinion, should have been disclosed verbally or on a menu: upcharge for nondairy milk; upcharge when I asked for garlic soy sauce; not getting our beverage in the glass it is advertised in; that the other sauces at Seoul Sister are plant based and there are more options than the spicy sauce.

My friend and I had an awesome experience on a Saturday night with Parkside Market! After a long day at Disneyland, this was a great option for tasty food outside of the park. I opted for the kid's chicken tender meal as I wasn't that hungry but wanted something. For the price of $12 it was hard to beat! It was also some of the best tenders I've ever had! It took awhile of standing in line to have my order taken, but the counter service was friendly. I got my food fairly quickly considering it was busy. I would highly recommend stopping in! I hope they gain a lot of popularity!

Drink options at Parkside Market are solid. My wife got their version of a smokey old fashioned and it was delicious. I went with a hard cider and it was nice after a long day at the park. Took 30,000 steps at Disneyland today! A pro tip is that if you go to the 2nd floor here, which is called "vista", you can get table service for Parkside Market and the other restaurants at the food court. While the food vendors at the food court are 2-3 star options, the main drawback is that the prices are a little high for the offerings, but I would come back for some libations and bites.

I've been to the Chicken restaurant here twice and honestly, the chicken is amazing. I know that many on here have bemoaned the prices and that is a fair criticism. That said, the food is great. The grilled chicken samdwich is one of the best I've had. The ordering and delivery system works well and the place is bright and comfortable. Yes, the prices are a bit steep, but it is Downtown Disney. Also, they recently lowered the price of the food. Well worth a visit!

Based on how it looks, love the mid-century modern, palm springs theme! My wedding theme had elements of this and retro vintage vibes too! Apparently, you can order any of the 3 cafe/ eateries, upstairs as well with less wait time!! So you don't have to wait in long lines downstairs!Will come back in the future hopefully to try the chicken or korean food spots.....I hope they're good. The slushie I got from Sip & Sonder was just ok, too sweet. See my pics!

Finally! More options in Downtown Disney! I'm so excited this food hall opened! It's cozy, exciting, and bustling. Staff is wonderful, and the vibes overall are pleasant! I love how excited all the cast members were! It added to the experience and truly made it more magical than just a regular food hall.I'm glad there's so many options! I can't wait to try everything. There's multiple cuisines, so there's something for everyone!So far, my favorite is Sip & Sonder for their drink choices! I'm so happy it's accessible right outside the marketplace.I can't wait to come back to try more things! So excited for this Downtown Disney addition!

Parkside market opened yesterday in Downtown Disney right across from the Monorail Entrance. There are 4 eateries - the rooftop bar, Chicken shop, Seoul Sister, and Sip & Sonder. Seating is pretty plentiful both upstairs and downstairs - ordering can be done both by waiting in line or by sitting at a table upstairs and waiting for a server to take your order. When ordering after waiting in the line, you're given a ringer that you place on a certain spot at your table so they can bring the food to you without having to search the entire building. For the food itself, we tried all the eateries except the rooftop bar. The food at the Chicken Shop was actually pretty decent - we tried both the Original Fried Chicken Sandwich and the Ranch Fried Chicken Sandwich, as well as the California salad. All of the menu items were good, with the standout being the Original Chicken Sandwich (although my sister preferred the salad). The food at Seoul Sister unfortunately wasn't good - the amount of protein for the bowls was relatively small and both of the rice bowls overall lacked flavor. We also tried both the Sparrow latte and the Caramel Dream collection from Sip & Sonder. The Sparrow latte was decent - a pretty standard Chai latte. The Caramel Dream collection was just ok - we didn't taste a strong caramel flavor and it mostly tasted like warm milk with a very slight amount of caramel. Service was very friendly and it was definitely nice to sit upstairs and overlook downtown Disney, but the food is definitely pricey. Standard Magic key and cast member discounts apply.

This place is super cool! The bottom floor features a couple of quick-serve restaurants and, I believe, a coffee spot. I tried Seoul Sister and ordered their tofu bowl, which was delicious! It came with crispy organic tofu, carrots, kale, cucumber, avocado, and their creamy Vegenaise Cali sauce (which was amazing, btw).The upstairs has a full-service bar with a variety of fun drink options, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. They also have a great system where you can grab a beeper, place it on your table (upstairs or downstairs), and your food is brought directly to you. Plus, you can order food right from the table without having to wait in line. It's a mix of casual, restaurant, and cafeteria vibes. I'll definitely be coming back to try more food and drink options!
