New Disney Village McDonald's Opens: A Bigger, Faster, And Familiar Budget Eat For UK Visitors

If you're hunting for cheap food at Disneyland Paris (or just need something quick, familiar and kid-approved), you've got a new option. The new McDonald's in Disney Village is now open from today, 17th February 2026. It's a three-storey restaurant with around 600 seats and mobile/table ordering, replacing the old 1999 location which has closed.

This opening is just in time for UK visitors heading over for February half-term breaks and before the much anticipated opening of Disney Adventure World featuring the World Of Frozen, on 29th March 2026.

Key Information:

What's new? The McDonald's Disneyland Paris location in Disney Village has moved into a brand-new, three-floor building with around 600 seats.

Why it matters for budgets: It's one of the easiest ways to keep meal costs predictable when you're trying to balance splurges vs. savings. (Think of it as a cheaper familiar reset meal between park snacks and one nice sit-down.)

What's changed? The original 1999 restaurant has closed, as the new one takes over.

What makes it faster? 23 self-service kiosks, plus a layout built for higher throughput.

Why This Matters For UK Budgets and Planning

For UK families and couples, Disneyland Paris food can be where the trip total creeps up, especially if you're doing multiple quick-service meals a day. The food can also be very different from at home in the UK and if you have a picky eater, no matter their age, the familiarity in consistency and taste of a McDonalds can be a life saver if you want a quick win where you know they’ll eat.

This opening comes just in time, as crowds at Disneyland Paris will be higher this week, with UK half-term visitors and from 29th March 2026 through the spring and summer months.

The Disney Village McDonald's is a great option for planners and the budget-conscious because it's:

• Familiar: ideal for fussy eaters and the we just need to eat now moments

• Quick: kiosks/table ordering helps when you're racing for shows or transport.

• High capacity: about 600 seats, including terrace seating, so it's built for peak weeks.

• Convenient: Disney Village is the natural between parks and hotels corridor.

This is exactly the kind of place that helps you stick to a one splurge meal a day plan, especially if you're looking up budget eats at Disneyland Paris while planning.

What's new at the restaurant

These are the figures that make a difference as they show the capacity:

• 3 floors

• Around 600 seats (including outdoor terraces)

• A panoramic lift

• 23 self-service kiosks

• A three-storey indoor play area

Disneyland Paris lists McDonald's as a Disney Village dining option.

This opening is also part of the wider transformation of the Disney Village area, which has been a work in progress for several years now.

Working in a Cheaper Meal Option

The opening of McDonald’s today gives guests the chance to keep costs down without feeling like you're missing out. Here are a couple of ways to work in a McDonald’s stop off and save a little bit of cash:

• Use McDonald's for breakfast/brunch or late lunch, then snack more lightly in the parks.

• Head to Disney Village outside peak times, before 11:30, after 14:30, or later evening, to avoid the biggest rush.

• Pair a McDonalds with park hopping: it's an easy stop when switching parks or heading back to hotels.
