Get ready to add a dash of British flair to your Disneyland adventure! Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay is bringing his culinary magic to Downtown Disney with a brand-new gastropub that promises to be a game-changer. But here’s where it gets exciting: this isn’t just any pub—it’s a time machine to 1960s London, complete with iconic British vibes and Ramsay’s signature dishes. During a recent visit to Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, Ramsay himself posed for a photo with Mickey Mouse and Resort President Thomas Mazloum, teasing what’s to come at Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby.
This upcoming hotspot, detailed by the Disney Parks Blog, is a collaboration between Ramsay and the creators of Earl of Sandwich. Located on the second floor above a new Earl of Sandwich outpost in the Downtown Disney District, The Carnaby aims to capture the energetic spirit of London’s legendary Carnaby Street during its ‘Swinging London’ heyday. Think plush décor, vibrant British pop art, and a soundtrack of British Invasion rock—all designed to transport you to a bygone era of cool Britannia.
And this is the part most people miss: the menu isn’t just British; it’s Ramsay’s British. Expect classics like his famous beef Wellington, crispy fish and chips, and indulgent sticky toffee pudding. Whether you’re craving a casual dinner or a lively social gathering, The Carnaby is poised to become a must-visit destination. But here’s the controversial part: can a theme park pub truly capture the essence of 1960s London, or is it just a clever marketing gimmick? We’ll let you decide.
While an official opening date hasn’t been announced yet, construction is well underway at the former Earl of Sandwich location, which is also transforming into a new Porto’s Bakery & Cafe. If you’re as excited as we are, you’re probably wondering: will The Carnaby live up to the hype? Have you dined at any of Ramsay’s other restaurants? Share your thoughts in the comments—we’d love to hear if you’re team beef Wellington or team fish and chips!
