You might be visiting Disney World, but when you dine at Garden Grove, you’ll be transported to New York City’s Central Park. At this table service restaurant, classic crowd-pleasing options that’ll satisfy the whole family. With sky-high windows and plenty of eye-catching details – including the towering 25-foot-tall oak tree at the center of the dining room, this restaurant is an experience in itself.
Garden Grove Location
Garden Grove is located at the Walt Disney World Swan Hotel, in its own circular spot (that oak tree requires a lot of space, after all).
Garden Grove Menu
Inspired by New York’s Central Park in its theming and American cuisine when it comes to the menu, Garden Grove keeps things familiar. Unlike many other Disney World restaurants, however, this dining establishment is only open for one meal of the day: breakfast.
During breakfast, you can sit down and enjoy a relaxed meal featuring staples like eggs, pancakes, waffles, and French toast. There is a dedicated kids’ menu, which includes the always-welcome Mickey-shaped waffles Disney World is known for. Across the board, the food here is familiar and comforting enough for any diner.

Disney Dining Plan
Garden Grove doesn’t accept either version of the Disney Dining Plan (the Disney Dining Plan or Disney Quick-Service Dining Plan), so you cannot use dining plan credits here.
Additionally, because the Walt Disney World Swan is technically not operated by Disney, you also cannot use MagicBands, Disney Gift Cards, or any other Disney stored value cards (like Disney Dining Cards) at this restaurant.
Advance Dining Reservations
You can make advance dining reservations (ADRs) for Garden Grove, but the process is a little different than your average Disney World restaurant. That’s because reservations are done through the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin website versus the Disney World website (or the My Disney Experience app).
Is Garden Grove Kid-Friendly?
Garden Grove is perfectly kid-friendly, and the restaurant is actually aimed at families, which means parents can book a reservation here (or stop by for a walk-up table) without worrying about the atmosphere. It’s an eye-catching space to dine inside, but it is still relaxed – and it’s always filled with other families.
Plus, the kids’ menu at Garden Grove is perfect for picky eaters. Here, those classic Mickey-shaped waffles are on the menu, along with other breakfast staples for kids who may not want to venture into the world of eggs and bacon.
