Good & easy spot to grab beer or wine. I got the hibiscus lemonade and it was pretty good, but all drinks are a bit on the pricey end for being canned drinks. Beers & wine are almost $20/drink. I do like the seating area over here. It feels pretty quiet each time I walk by and there's lots of shade, which makes it a good spot to lounge when you need a drink break on a hot day! read more

Sonoma Terrace - Craftwell Hibiscus Lemonade - Beer Gardens Near Me - Anaheim, California

As a Magic Disney Key Holder, this is our every visit spot at California Disney. I enjoy the ambiance at this location. We always find seating at the patio area or by the main walkway. The vibe is very nice. Sometimes we are able to see parades pass by as well as seeing all the wonderful people having a good time. There are wines and cocktails to choose from at this location. The bar is old school and the lines go by quickly. You won't be waiting a long period of time like you do for snacks. No reservations required, just walk up. Ordered a hard apple cider with another cocktail. Fresh and delicous! This spot is laid back with decent prices that comes with a discount as a Disney key member. Friendly and warm people helping you out with your order. Cool vibe and nice ambiance! read more

Friday Feb. 13th a female employee picking up empty cups etc. told me to make sure I picked up my cup and threw it in the trash once I was done. As a guest that was there spending money on 3 drinks. I felt like that was a passive aggressive comment, I understand you might be tired, annoyed, or whatever the case may be but you have to make customers feel welcomed and comfortable. I did not feel right after she talked to me like I was a child. read more

Casual area for an adult pick me up also known as adult beverage lol The Sonoma Terrace is very nice. It's located right next to Wine Country and the Magic Key Terrace. This is a great place to take a break from all the walking and enjoy a drink or grab a pretzel! Nothing fancy here really. Service is good. It's not the best for a meal. Better for snacking. But a good spot nonetheless! read more

2/5 Got a drink and a pretzel before hopping off to world of color. Pretzel was dry and hard so for sure get the cheese sauce to go with it. The cocktail was pretty fun and tasty but a tiny bit on the boozy side. It's honestly not worth the stop unless you're desperate or if you're just already here. read more

Not a bad place to sit and refresh for a while. It's a wine bar and/or beer garden. We normally come for the wine, champagne and pretzels. Just a great stop during our visit to the parks. Located across from the lagoon and Pixar Pier, nestled in next to the Wine Country Trattoria. I feel like the seating area could use a little updating or upgrading, but it is still shady and open. There are half a dozen or so wines to choose from, a small selection of beers, hard cider, a couple mixed drinks... and a Bavarian pretzels (with or without a cheese cup). Very simple menu, yet something for everyone, even for the non-alcoholic drinkers there are bottled sodas and waters. Drinks will cost you $10-15 and a pretzel is under $10... cheese cup is a buck and a half extra. I do wish the pretzels were softer and warmer, but they do the trick. During the Covid times you can only order items through the app then wait until your items are ready and head to the window. Even then there's a bit of a wait for your purchases to be ready. They aren't super fast, but we're here to relax so really it's fine. Just find a seat and place your order... then enjoy. Nothing too hoity toity with this place, but it is an easy stop to relax and unwind a bit. Cheers!!! read more

Sonoma Terrace - Sonoma Terrace: Relaxing drinks and a snack - Beer Gardens Near Me - Anaheim, California

Look, I'm not saying you should buy park hopper tickets just so you can booze while your children run around Cars Land. But when you're spending two days at Disneyland with two children under four, a cold beer sure goes a long way. I've been to Sonoma Terrace twice this year and I appreciate that it's a fast, easy place to visit. It's somehow less mobbed with adults than like the Mickey-shaped ice cream carts. There are a few registers and negligible lines, and service is quick and friendly. You can hang out on the terrace or enjoy a walk-around drink, take some of the edge off the chaos of Disney or waiting in line with restless children. The alcohol selection is great, with beer, wine, and cocktails. I think I had a Prickly Paloma my first time around, earlier this year, a tequila drink with prickly pear and grapefruit ginger beer. My second time, I went for the Calidad Cerveza, a Mexican-style lager that was just the ticket on a warm day. My husband's Brewery X Battlesnake Pilsner was nice, too. One word of warning--if you're taking your drinks to go, keep in mind that you can't ride with them, and maybe don't go straight to a kiddie ride with a short line, where both you and your partner might have to chug beers while wrangling your three-year-old and baby, finishing just in time to trash your empty cups before loading the children onto Ariel's Undersea Adventure, for example. Disneyland appears to be part of our lives now, so I expect we'll make many more visits to Sonoma Terrace as our children grow up. It's a vital resource for parents, especially those of us who aren't independently Disney adults. read more

I've always just trekked past this place, mostly because I'm not much of a drinker. Instead we came here for Oogie Boogie Bash for their dessert dining with parade viewing seating. You have to come super early, regardless of this RSVP because there's 3 different layers of seating. One closest (where people can still sit on the ground in front of you), and 2 layers in the back with tall, "studio" style chair seating. They gave us complimentary Dasani water bottles. For $60+ we got a small plate of desserts and one drink. The fruit punch came with whipped cream and was a sweet treat. It was a bit more than what you can fit in a Dixie cup. I honestly found the desserts pretty mid... -Gummy centipedes that you can get gummy worm substitutes anywhere -Chocolate mousse (not bad) but it was impossible to take this back home. It just splattered into pieces. -Small red velvet bundt cake. Not bad but nothing to write home about. -A sugar coated piece of fudge (probably my favorite) -Raspberry streusel (very small piece), it was alright -Rice Krispy treat. It looks cute, but it's kinda basic. I don't think this was worth the cost when I could have just mobile ordered more food for a lesser cost and parked myself for closer seating for the parade. read more

I'm not sure when or if I will ever find a decent pretzel at a theme park, (many people say the cream cheese pretzel is the best so maybe that will satisfy my cravings?) but for now, the Bavarian pretzels are just sad. I swung by Sonoma Terrace around 4:30pm and ordered the pretzel with beer cheese sauce and a Golden Road Blondie draft, totaling about $20 after a Magic Key discount. The beer, luckily, was great. Cold, crisp, light, refreshing, and tasted great. The cheese was meh, typical packaged cheese sauce. The pretzel had decent dough but it was just plain, dry, and besides the rock salt, had no other flavoring. Pretzels should have a really good bread flavor without a bunch of rock salt, and sadly these just don't cut it. read more

This is probably my favorite place to get a quick beer on Disney property. Sonoma Terrance is a place to get drinks to go. They have a rotating menu of craft beer, wine, and mixed drinks. The mixed drinks are often premixed, and pour out of bottles. MOBILE ORDER is your friend here. My friends are always impressed when I can put in a mobile order on the Disneyland app, and quickly walk up and grab my beer without waiting in the line. PROPS: Fast beers SLOPS: This location opens later and closes earlier than the rest of Disney California Adventure read more

At 11 am, Sonoma Terrace opens. They serve wine and beer. You can also order non-alcoholic sparkling apple cider for kids. They have a light appetizer of a cheese platter. But this is for drinks mainly. You can walk around California Adventure with your drinks. read more

Maybe we were there on an off day, but Sonoma Terrace (for a sit down lunch) left us feeling like we missed something. For starters, seating is inside an area that seems like it could use some magical remodeling. I get the Italian vibe, but it seemed dated. The walls and furniture could use some freshening up. The one menu item I was excited to try, The Peppermint Martini, which was on the online menu wasn't even available. When we asked, the server indicated they never received the ingredients. Well that's a drag! Out server must have missed the Disney orientation because he was just such a drag to be around. He seemed like he needed that Peppermint Martini more than me! Food just wasn't in line with other places, as far as quality. There are far better places in Disney's California Adventures. read more

Last night we tried the meatball sandwich that came in a bag and it was surprisingly great. If you're in the park and need something fast that's going to fill you up but not make you disgustingly full then the meatball sandwich is the way to go. We also snatched the last De Vil-ishly Delectable Wings which had black sesame seeds on them and they were delicious as well. It's Halloween time right now so they feature an Ace pumpkin cider which was AMAZING. Also, the Underworld Libation is a rum cocktail that I would recommend as it's not super sweet even though it comes with cotton candy! I usually come here for the alcohol, but hopefully they'll keep the meatball sandwich as a permanent menu item because it's perfect. Plenty of seating in the area and again, great place to people watch and relax. Now they have sofas here which is even more relaxing than eating at a regular restaurant. read more

A very nice outdoor area to enjoy a craft beer, some wine, a couple of cocktails or even Coke soda products except for Coke Zero. The Pineapple Passion cocktail was a pricey $16.00 each. It features some rum, both pineapple juice and passion fruit juice. It was decent but the atmosphere made the extra perk of making it a nice place. read more

And enjoyable, under the radar option to enjoy an adult beverage, and some light fare. While it doesn't quite have extensive menu of other nearby options, it does provide a quick break for visitors to the California Adventure Park who are not looking for a full blown, sit down experience. The service is quick and as expected. The ambience is relaxed and draws from Mediterranean and Napa Valley influences. Probably one of the hidden gems of the park that is easy to overlook. read more

On the left side of the Italian restaurant. Pretty quick because I don't think many come here with the limited menu. Avocado cheesesteak was a little dry but nice mild spice flavor. Pineapple passion is sweet and tasty! Gonna have to come back for the Bavarian pretzel one of these times.. read more

The beer is the Pilsner and is cold and refreshing. The pretzel isn't warm or as tasty as I'd prefer but it looks lovely. It's chewy which is a plus. It could use loads more salt.

My favorite place to grab a quick beer in DCA! Lovely relaxing atmosphere with tons of seating for great people watching and little secluded from the madness. On top of that they really have the best selection of non basic beers even if the prices have significantly crept up. From craft stouts to hazy IPAs they have a little something for everyone including champagne and wine as well. Every drink aficionado should come by here at least once. read more

Meatball sub. Well-seasoned, hearty balls bathed in marinara and seated in a surprisingly soft hoagie roll. My wife and I agreed that this is the best savory item we've tasted yet at Disneyland/DCA. I do love the turkey legs as well, but those can be inconsistent on the cook. Conversely, pass on the Bavarian pretzel. Ours was way dry on the inside and mandated a dip into cheese sauce to make each bite palatable. read more

Much like many I've walked by Sonoma Terrace a dozen times not giving it the light of day, but after a recent "well why not" mindset I'd say I'm a true fan for life. Based on the offerings I'm inclined to say it's more for beer and lighter snacks, but where isn't nowadays? I came with a hankering to try finally the meatball sandwich. It comes out in a heat bag so at least it put me at ease about getting amass produced cold sandwich. There are 3 large Italian meatballs and honestly it really is a meal in itself. The melted mozzarella was not salty and it coated the baked Italian roll quite abundantly. Like a weirdo I ate the meatballs separately which left me virtually with cheese bread at the end. Happily thanks to the steaming of the roll the bread was soft and easily pulled away and left with gooey pulls of cheese and that made this bambino jump for joy. I really wish there was a vegan version of the meatball like they had during Pixar Fest, but this equally as appreciated. Oh Pacific Wharf is day hold onto your hats because you certainly do have a hit on your hands here! read more

Great location but we were required to purchase food if we wanted alcohol per "California" guidelines. Therefore, I purchased a salty pretzel and salty cheese dip. Unfortunately I had to remove the salt from the pretzel before I consumed it. I'm not sure if they have an unsalted option for the pretzel but I would recommend getting it if you are purchasing the cheese dip. Side note: Not sure when Disney will be changing its policies but make sure to order ahead on the Disneyland app because they will check to see if your order is ready on the app...... read more

I've had a Disneyland pass for years and have been coming to Sonoma Terrance forever! Despite I only ever get a to-go beer, I've always had pleasant experiences. The cast members are usually super nice but our experience today stood out. Phil from Pomona hates his job and it shows in the way he treats people. He was so rude and very unpleasant. I've never had anyone ask me to take a drink of my drink in front of them to "verify" that after I drink from it, I wouldn't be able to return it. My partner and I were so confused, we had to ask him again what he wanted us to do and he told us to drink from our cups so that we couldn't ask for a refund. I don't even know what that means or what experiences led him to ask us to drink in front of him. read more

My 9 month son fell extremely hard here, my husband ran up and asked for ice and he was told he needed a container... he came back with a cup and was still denied. I finally went up baby in hand asking pls for just one cube of ice. I was denied and was incorrectly told to go yo care services for ice. They don't even have ice. It took over an hour asking for help to a slew of employees so we gave up. My son has a giant welt when one of these jerks could have helped a baby. Never going back. read more

Came here for a beer and whiskey seminar offered through the California Adventure Food and Wine Festival. After the seminar, I ordered a cider which was light and crisp. Being in a theme park, beverages here are not reasonably priced. But it was a great cider. The venue is great. The outdoor seating is great to people watch. It's relaxing location where you can kick back from all the stresses from the long lines. Always tried looking for that place to get away, but not get away? This is one of those hidden gem locations in the park. So check it it. We al know where going to throw down some cash, might as well do with a drink in your hand if you're looking for beer or wine. read more

Good place to relax and have a drink at California Adventure, if you can get a table. The bartenders are friendly, the beer is good but the prices aren't so good. 10 dollar average for a beer is high. I do like the choices of local microbreweries though. It can get crowded, especially on the weekends, so be prepared to wait. read more

The app said the food would be prepared and ready by 6:15, but we didn't get it until 6:25, when it was just sitting in a warming cabinet. When we got our food, one of the grilled cheese sandwiches came with a bread tag inside! Not going back read more

I went here yesterday and it was amazing! The service is amazing and the food is served very nicely. I had the spaghetti and meatballs (I ordered that instead of the standard) and the meatballs were very moist and juicy. My lemonade was absolutely amazing too. It is all natural lemonade on the bottom, then at the top there is this pink colored thing. It kinda looked like whipped cream but it wasn't! You're supposed to mix it together and it changed the flavor. It was super tasty! The desert we got was very tasty as well. Employees were constantly checking up on us, and Anne would always walk by and clear off the table for us. Plan to come here again! And I totally recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat a very nice meal in a quiet environment. Thank you! read more

I love this little secret in California Adventure. Usually the crowd that comes here are a bit more mature than those who go to the beer truck near paradise pier. They have higher alcohol content beers, and a good selection of wines. The drinks are a bit more expensive, but what's one or two more dollars for a beer thats 9.2% ABV compared to 7%? It's worth the money, the atmosphere is much better and quieter than most places at California Adventure. Do yourself a favor and give this place a visit. I recommend the Brother Thelonius beer, cheers! read more

Have you ever been to a place and the staff was rude right off the bat and immediately ruined your experience? That's what happened to us here. We were waiting in line wanted to buy a food festival item. The lady in front of us walked away, as I'm walking up to the server (Alexis), I was tearing off my PREPAID food tab right in front of her. I approach and order and before I can finish, very rudely she says, "I can't accept that, you've torn it off, I need to tear it off". No where does it say this in it by the way. So immediately it put us on the defensive because we have already paid for these tabs. And they weren't cheap. Plus the way she said it and her delivery was such that she was tired of customers and was way combative. First time to Sonoma Terrace, we are Magic Key Annual Passholders and Sonoma Terrace forever holds a bad taste in our mouth because of the server Alexis. Very much not up to Disney quality staff. read more

This is a hidden escape for a midday siesta, perfect for an afternoon break to get away from the crowds and rest your tired feet. They offer a wide selection of craft beers (from local breweries in Anaheim and the surrounding areas, as well as throughout the state), wine and bar bites. I always get a glass of the MacMurray Pinot Noir -- smooth and not too bright. If it's a hot day, I get a glass of the bubbly sparkling wine. They serve all drinks here in to-go plastic cups, so if you're on the go you can take your drink with you (yes you can actually walk around California Adventure with a glass of booze!). The line here can get long late in the afternoon, once adults start getting exhausted from the Disney Magic and need a break to drink. Next to the counter, they have lots of tables in a peaceful shaded area, complete with Spanish guitar music piped through the speakers. If you come during the right time of the afternoon, the seating area is perfect viewing for the Pixar parade. I highly recommend stopping by for a quick rest and drink if you're in the park! read more

This is a nice bar with lots of seating, a little hidden, so it's not overly crowded. There is beer and wine, with some little bites like pretzels, a cheese plate, and a charcuterie plate, I believe. Nothing very filling if you're looking for lunch or dinner. But you can grab food from across the way and bring over to Sonoma Terrace for a nice meal with a nice (plastic) cup of wine! read more

Disneyland Park is notoriously dry of alcohol-unless you have an exclusive membership to Club 33, you are SOL in terms of finding an adult beverage. It's what Walt wanted and as much as it pains me, it's kind of nice to have. Besides, California Adventure is just across the way and they DO serve adult beverages. Of all the places in DCA that serve booze, this is far and away my favorite. My wife and I stumbled across this place one hot, crowded June day as a place to stop merely because it was shady and not crowded. Well, we were quite please when we found out that they also feature an amazing selection of craft beers and wines! Seriously, there were beers here that I had only heard about but never found anywhere else. As our trip went on, this place became our "safe haven" in the afternoon and evening when the temperatures would rise and the cranky kids would make their voices heard. The bartenders here and very laid back and friendly and are happy to offer up suggestions on what to drink should you need one. They also serve uber delicious baked pretzels with amazing beer mustard. Prime example of how nice perfect this place can be-one afternoon we came here, got a beer and a pretzel and sat in the shade, and got to see the Inside Out parade go past. No waiting in the sun for an hour for a good spot or anything! Sonoma Terrace is a total oasis for adults in DCA and if you're looking for a spot to sit in the shade, take a break, and have a cold one, there's no better spot. read more
