Viral menu item draws long lines at Disneyland: ‘It’s the best thing I’ve tasted’

Fans line up to buy a Garlic Cheesy Brat at a Fantasyland restaurant at Disneyland after the park added it to the holiday menu.

The California-based attraction added the creation to its 2024 holiday menu. The $13 Disneyland Brat at Edelweiss Snacks is a cheesy garlic pretzel bread with a bratwurst inside.

The restaurant began offering the Brat last August as a limited-time item around the Halloween season.

Before the item appeared on an official menu, it was a viral Disneyland food hack, and several foodies shared recipes on how to make their own versions of Garlic Cheesy Brats on social media platforms.

The food expert added that Garlic Cheesy Brat would be sold out by 11am on the day of the launch.

Disneyland has an extensive history of long lines for rides and restaurants, but there are tricks that can help park guests avoid them.

Following the menu item’s popularity, Edelweiss Snacks extended the wait time in line Mice chatting.

The outlet added that the restaurant now has a “taped off” area to manage the long lines of customers looking to order the popular Brat.

One expert advised Edelweiss Snacks customers to place an order in advance via a mobile device.

Mice Chat claimed that a wait of more than 30 minutes became five minutes after a customer placed an Edelweiss Snacks on the Disneyland app.

Ordering through a mobile app isn’t the only thing customers can do to skip long lines at Disneyland restaurants.

Guests can also track the queues via the Disneyland app or visit the restaurant during off-peak hours, usually in the early morning or late afternoon.

Since this is the holiday season, tourists can fill all the Disneyland parks, and therefore early mornings can be the best off-peak times.

Disneyland guests hoping for the early hours can visit Edelweiss Snacks when it opens at 10:30 AM.

Park visitors who cannot visit the restaurant until the afternoon or evening have until 10:30 PM to purchase a Garlic Cheesy Brat.

Social media users who purchased the Garlic Cheesy Brat were impressed and insisted they would buy it again.

One X user claimed the Brat changed their lives after they tried it during a visit to Disneyland in October 2024.

Another person claimed the Garlic Cheesy Brat in response to a tweet from someone who asked what he thought was the best thing he ate at Disneyland in the past year.

Others couldn’t stop writing about how ‘good and satisfying’ it was, while another person claimed it was the ‘best savory item’.

“My stomach is already full just looking at all the photos!” an X user joked in his/her profile tweet.

Several social media users had suggestions for what they thought would have made the Brat taste better.

Some of the ideas Instagram users suggested in Kharrat’s video included mustard and sauerkraut.

One Brat eater claimed the Disney treat was “absolutely delicious” but revealed they didn’t need ranch and suggested the chefs “increase the garlic one level.’

Several items are included in Disneyland’s latest seasonal menu, which went on sale on November 15
