Disney Eats announced this week that a new kiosk called Bountiful Valley Brews is coming to Disney California Adventure, serving light bites and brews and opening later this year. If the project sounds familiar, it should. We've been tracking this one since the permit was filed back in December.

We've Been Tracking This One Since December

On December 22, 2025, we posted about a permit for a new quick service location at Disney California Adventure. The filing, BLD2025-06429, reads:

DCA - Avengers Campus/QSR #763 - Accessory Building: 370 sq ft covered servicing counter with a 140 sq ft walk-in cooler for new beverage kiosk. With electrical and plumbing.

— City of Anaheim Permit Portal

A 370-square-foot service counter with a 140-square-foot walk-in cooler is a beverage-first footprint, which lines up exactly with what Disney just described. The one thing worth correcting: because the permit is filed under the "Avengers Campus" project umbrella, we read it as something going inside the land itself. It isn't. Permits at the Disneyland Resort are routinely grouped under the nearest active project, and this one sits just outside the gates.

Where It's Going

Bountiful Valley Brews is headed for the Performance Corridor. That's the walkway running between Carthay Circle Restaurant and the entrance to Avengers Campus, where Disney sets up its Food & Wine Festival marketplaces every spring. In 2026, that stretch hosted five of the festival's eight booths, including California Craft Brews, Garlic Kissed, Golden Dreams, LA Style, and Peppers Cali-Ente.

That location makes a lot of sense. The Performance Corridor is one of the main routes between Buena Vista Street and Avengers Campus, and it already carries the utilities and pad space Disney builds festival booths on every spring. Making one of those positions permanent is about as efficient as new dining capacity gets. It also gives the corridor something to do outside of festival season, when the booths come down and the walkway goes quiet.

The Name Is a Deep Cut

"Bountiful Valley" isn't a new invention. When Disney's California Adventure opened on February 8, 2001, Bountiful Valley Farm was a 2.3-acre section of Golden State built as a tribute to California agriculture, a concept carried over from the canceled Disney's America park, where it was called Family Farm. It featured more than 350 California crops, real orange trees, cow statues, a Caterpillar-sponsored tractor exhibit, the Irrigation Station water play area, and the Bountiful Valley Farmers Market. Sam Andreas Shakes handled milkshakes, and Santa Rosa Seed and Supply sold actual seed packets.

A Bug's Land opened inside that footprint in 2002, Caterpillar's sponsorship ended around 2006, and the farm elements were phased out by September 2010 as Cars Land construction ramped up. A Bug's Land itself closed in 2018 to make way for Avengers Campus.

The name never fully disappeared, though. The flexible event space tucked behind that area, the one with the rockwork and the wooden door marked "BVW," has been unofficially known as the Bountiful Valley Winery since it reopened to guests in 2021. Bountiful Valley Brews puts the name back on a menu board for the first time in over fifteen years, on ground that used to be the farm.

What We Still Don't Know

  • The menu. Disney has said "light bites and brews" and nothing more. Whether that means California craft beer, wine, or a broader lineup is unconfirmed.
  • The opening date. "Later this year" is all we have.
  • How it interacts with Food & Wine. A permanent structure on the festival's main corridor raises an obvious question about whether it absorbs a booth slot or operates alongside them.
  • Operating model. Whether it runs daily or seasonally, like several of DCA's outdoor vending locations, hasn't been addressed.
