Anaheim, California — In the middle of one of Southern California's most visited destinations, Great Maple brings a modern take on American comfort food to the Disneyland Resort.
Located inside Pixar Place Hotel, Great Maple combines a stylish, midcentury-modern atmosphere with a menu built around familiar American favorites—with unexpected twists, generous portions, seasonal ingredients, and plenty of options for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner.
The restaurant describes its approach as elevated American dining, with modern comfort food made from scratch and an element of fun.
A Modern Take on American Classics
Great Maple isn't trying to reinvent American food completely. Instead, the restaurant takes familiar favorites and gives them a more creative presentation and flavor profile.
The Anaheim menu includes everything from buttermilk pancakes and French toast to burgers, fried chicken, steak, seafood, salads, pasta, and comfort-food classics.
That variety makes Great Maple particularly appealing for groups where everyone may be looking for something different.
Whether you're starting the morning with brunch, stopping in for lunch, or looking for a sit-down dinner after a day at Disneyland, there is plenty to choose from.
The Famous Maple Bacon Doughnuts
One of Great Maple's signature items is also one of its most recognizable.
The Famous Maple Bacon Doughnuts are made to order and finished with the restaurant's signature maple bacon glaze. The combination of sweet maple, savory bacon, and freshly made doughnuts has become an important part of the Great Maple experience.
For first-time visitors, these are an easy item to share around the table—or to keep all to yourself.
Great Maple also offers seasonal doughnuts and powdered-sugar beignets served with house-made lemon curd.
Brunch With Plenty of Choices
Brunch is one of Great Maple's strongest attractions.
The menu includes Buttermilk Pancakes, available traditionally or with blueberries, strawberries, or chocolate chips. There's also French Toast Logs, made with thick-cut brioche and served with warm maple bacon syrup and fresh blueberries.
For diners looking for something savory, options include Chilaquiles, Smoked Bacon Scramble, Ribeye Hash, and the Cajun Shrimp Biscuit Benedict.
The traditional biscuit Benedict combines Black Forest ham, poached eggs, and classic hollandaise on a house-made white cheddar biscuit, while the Cajun version adds shrimp and Cajun hollandaise.
Fried Chicken and Doughnuts
Few combinations capture Great Maple's playful approach to comfort food better than its Fried Chicken & Doughnuts.
The dish pairs buttermilk-fried chicken with the restaurant's maple bacon doughnuts and maple syrup.
It's a combination of sweet and savory flavors that has become one of the restaurant's signature dishes, particularly for diners looking for something more indulgent than a traditional brunch plate.
For another take on fried chicken, the Hot Honey Fried Chicken Sandwich combines buttermilk-fried chicken, cabbage slaw, hot honey aioli, and melted white American cheese on a brioche bun.
Lunch Goes Beyond Brunch
Great Maple's menu extends well beyond breakfast and brunch.
Lunch options include the Great Maple BLT, a hot honey fried chicken sandwich, fried fish sandwich, falafel wrap, ribeye melt, and steakhouse burger.
The Steakhouse Burger combines aged white cheddar, arugula, tomato, pickled red onions, and aioli on a brioche bun, with options to add avocado, bacon, or an egg.
For diners looking for something lighter, the restaurant offers salads such as the Modern Caesar, Cobb Wedge, and GM Chopped Salad, with additional protein options including chicken, shrimp, salmon, steak, falafel, or avocado.
Dinner Brings Out the Comfort Food
When evening arrives, Great Maple's menu shifts toward heartier American comfort food.
Dinner selections include Fried Chicken & Doughnuts, Turkey Bolognese, Lemon Shrimp Pasta, Maple Pecan Crusted Salmon, Soda Pop Baby Back Ribs, and Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes.
For steak lovers, the Anaheim menu also features a 10-ounce New York Steak and a 12-ounce Grilled Ribeye.
The ribeye is served with a roasted mushroom medley, truffle mushroom cream sauce, and roasted garlic and Parmesan mashed potatoes.
Something for the Whole Table
Great Maple's broad menu makes it particularly convenient for families and groups.
Shareable starters include Portobello Mushroom Fries, Charred Cauliflower Hummus, Parmesan Truffle Fries, Mac & Cheese, and a Shrimp & Avocado Stack.
There is also a dedicated children's menu with options including pancakes, French toast, grilled cheese and fries, a burger and fries, mac and cheese, chicken fingers, and a one-scoop ice cream sundae.
That variety means parents can enjoy a more substantial meal while younger diners have familiar favorites available.
Cocktails With a Great Maple Twist
The beverage program follows the same playful approach as the food.
Brunch cocktails include Mimosas, White Peach Bellinis, the GM House Mary, and an Espresso Martini.
The signature cocktail list includes creations such as the Great Maple Mule, Blood Orange Margarita, Cali Carajillo, and Maple Bacon Old Fashioned.
The Maple Bacon Old Fashioned combines bacon-washed bourbon with maple syrup, bitters, and maple chili bacon, creating a cocktail that fits naturally with the restaurant's sweet-and-savory personality.
For guests looking for a non-alcoholic option, Great Maple also offers zero-proof drinks including flavored cold brew drinks known as Brew Bears, lavender lemonade, Moroccan iced tea, and other house beverages.
A Stylish Place to Take a Break
Great Maple's Anaheim restaurant is located inside Pixar Place Hotel at Disneyland Resort, making it accessible to both hotel guests and visitors looking for a sit-down dining option near the parks.
The restaurant combines a modern dining room with the relaxed atmosphere associated with contemporary American comfort food.
For Disneyland visitors, it can provide a change of pace from theme-park dining—a place to sit down, enjoy a full meal, and take a break from a busy day.
The Anaheim location is currently open seven days a week, serving breakfast and lunch from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM and dinner from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Great Maple also notes that guests dining at the restaurant can receive three hours of complimentary parking at Pixar Place Hotel with validation.
More Than an Anaheim Restaurant
Great Maple has grown into a Southern California restaurant brand with locations in Anaheim, Newport Beach, and San Diego.
The brand's goal is to take familiar American dishes and present them in a more contemporary and creative way, while maintaining the approachable character of comfort food.
For Orange County diners, that means the Great Maple experience isn't limited to a visit to Disneyland. The brand also has a location at Fashion Island in Newport Beach, giving locals another opportunity to experience the menu outside the resort environment.

Its Anaheim location adds another dimension, giving Disneyland Resort visitors and Orange County locals a convenient place to enjoy a full-service meal in a more relaxed environment.
