    I just love coming to Downtown Disney. So much going on and so much to do. Restaurants galore and entertainment everywhere. You don't need to go anywhere else when in Anaheim.

    Great looking options. So many places to try. Really cute inside. Fish flaky and crisp. Not pet friendly but there is patio seating.

    The farmers market wasn’t quite as nice as I remembered it a few years ago. Also, it was Halloween and decorated cute the previous time. There’s still a lot of food options and butchers and candy makers and pickles! Found the best horseradish dill pickles 😋

    I really liked this place. It was very small and the trails are very short, which was disappointing. But it was a nice shaded place for a leisurely stroll. It's free, too. However, be aware that parking is a nightmare.

    Only now do I know I paid $15 for nothing. The parking attendant charged us $15 dollars to park and didn't say that it was free for the Marketplace and only $15 if you were going to the sports center. I feel cheated. Inside was very busy. Communicating was hard because i don't know spanish. We were trying to ask the security guard about a shop but he didn't speak English and the other security guard stood there and was actually digging up his nose and wiping it on his pants.

    There are lots of interesting stores and restaurants in this area. There is some free parking available and rest rooms that require a code.

    Nice little brewery. Beer was overall very good which is the most important thing. Decor was cool with a superhero theme. If stopping for dinner, you have to stop at Tacos El Gringo and have that with your beer!

    If you are interested in the history of Anaheim just stop here. We were unable to get into the houses as we went on a Sunday when it was closed. However, the houses were well kept and beautiful. Another plus is the huge Moreton Bay Fig Tree in the park. This tree was the inspiration for the Swiss Family Robison (now Tarzan) Treehouse at Disneyland!

    A very nice craft beer brewery with interesting atmosphere. When you enter the place you feel like you walked into a pirate ship. Good tasting beers and a friendly staff.

    I thought this sounded neat before we got here, but other than some of the neat statues and fountains, there weren't as many stores here as I would have expected. They have lots of room to improve, but they also have a ways to go.

    We came here back in February when Southern California was having a very unseasonable cold and rainy spell, so coming here was a nice respite from the weather. The taproom is really fun and they have an indoor area near the bar, separate area inside with tables, and a large outdoor area. This was our first time here so we got 2 flights to try as many beers as possible and they were all great! They had great IPAs, sours, and stouts and it would be difficult to pick just one that we really loved. The staff were also very kind and helpful and it's a great place overall. We'll definitely be back on our next trip to Anaheim!

    This was our first time visiting this place. I knew there were bowling lanes inside, just didn't know how it was set up. Where we were sat, there were bowling lanes on both sides of us, and all the tables were in the center. I should have asked to get a table farther away from the lane. I don't know why with all the open tables that were there, we were sat right next to the lane.

    We both ordered the Impossible Burger with fries. It is one of the better Impossible burgers that I have had. The fries are good, just small, but you get a lot. We also got a root beer float. Comes in a goblet sized glass. I would go back again, just ask for a different table if I am sat right next to a lane.

    The World of Disney is an amazing large store that offers all sorts of Disney items. It offers everything and anything you would find in all of the Disney parks. Currently there is a lot of Halloween merchandise and the Haunted Mansion items.

    Katelyn was very helpful and very enthusiastic about the Lego sets! She was so sweet and I loved talking to her.

    A great art gallery in the Downtown Disney District. It is full of Disney collectibles suitable for every budget. I purchased a stylized Monorail print with a custom mat for only $40. When I got home I was able to purchase a nice frame so that I ended up with a lovely piece of art to remember my visit, without breaking the bank.
