If you’re looking to save money on food at Disney like me, then you’ll love this list of affordable options. I’ve always found the prices at Disney to be quite high, but luckily, dining options have been improving over the years.
To save money, I usually pack my own snacks, meals, and water when I visit the parks. My friends and I have been doing it since our early twenties when we had limited funds. Even now, we’re conscious of what we spend and tend to only indulge in drinks at the Hearthstone Lounge.
However, if we don’t have time to pack a breakfast, there are still plenty of options that won’t break the bank. Here are 10+ breakfasts under ten dollars that you can find at the parks and Downtown Disney. These options are not only affordable but also delicious and satisfying.
This is post is all about cheap and easy breakfasts at Disneyland.

For less than $7 you can fill up on a hearty burrito with sausage, eggs and cheese. But be warned – these breakfast chimichangas sell out fast, so you gotta be quick if you want to enjoy one.
