    Pym's Test Kitchen is usually my go-to for a quick bite and drink in DCA. It did started going downhill recently (2026) compared to 2022-2023. This is the perfect spot for a quick breakfast & lunch in DCA. They're located in Avengers Campus. Pym's Test Lab is the bar with fun alcoholic cocktails. Just like any other quick service, it can get extremely busy so mobile ordering ahead will be helpful. They only offer outdoor seating; no indoor seating. Finding an open seat can be a challenge on peak days. Cast members are quick & efficient, and they're on top of assisting with emptying trays. They offer American dishes that are Ant-Man themed, hence its name. The Calculated Breakfast is my favorite dish before starting the day. The Quantum Pretzel is my favorite thing to share. The Not-so-little Chicken Sandwich is my favorite dish bc the chicken is crispy & seasoned well. They offer seasonal dishes that can be a hit or miss. Skip the Spinach and Artichoke Grilled Cheese. Their seasonal cold brews are sweet. The alcohol at Pym's Test Lab is strong & sweet! I noticed portion sizes have gotten smaller with increased prices. I hate how greedy they've gotten. Smh. The food and drinks do the job. It's quick & efficient.

    Humongous Taco Salad

    I came super hungry, so I thought everything tasted amazing. My favorite was the Humongous Taco Salad. Loved everything in it, so every bite was tasty and delicious. The Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Cheese was a little too rich and heavy for me. The tots had good seasoning to them though. My favorite cold brew at Disneyland/California Adventure is the Cookies and Cream Cold Brew. 10/10! The Cold Brew Black Caf at Galaxy's Edge was previously my top choice. This was my first time trying Pym Kitchen. The interior decor is so cute. I especially like the oversized pretzels and humongous ketchup and mustard at the utensils station.

    Humongous taco salad and philly steak sandwich. Refillable coke zero! Would eat here again nice large outdoir covered patio employees are super nice here! I liked the condiment has ranch dressing! Taco salad was good but chicken could be a bit better...philly sandwich was silly with some funny chips on top loved the crunchy tater tots! Took pics of other food that would appeal to your kids! See beautiful tulip tree love summer time!

    First time here the food was great! The pretzel is massive and the beer cheese was good too ! The chilaquiles were delicious and the drinks were cute but tasted delicious

    We've had lunch here multiple times and have always liked our meals, and decided to try breakfast here today. It's odd to me how few food spots serve breakfast (or even open before 10:30am) yet the parks are open so early. My husband had the chilequiles and said it the portion was good for the price, but the chips were a little soggy. The latter part was odd because we waited 5-10 for the food after it was preceded, so I thought we were getting a fresh batch. He paired it with a beermosa, which is what it sounds like. It's served in a plastic cup you can keep if you want to (a measuring cup with a spout, basically). I wasn't a fan of the drink - beer and OJ? Gross, lol. I had the egg/bacon/tots meal and liked everything. It came with this weird mini toast, which just tasted like white bread, yet the red circles in it were slightly sweet. My only critique is that the eggs are served on top of a piece of paper, so you'll want to eat those first or I suspect you'll get paper bits in your bites. With AP discount, everything was $39 after tax, which we thought was a great deal for a meal at the parks with decent portions.

    I visited Pym Test Kitchen during LNY celebration at DCA mainly for their Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese. It was my first time and this science lab theme restaurant really impressed me with their ambiance and decoration, love the Marvel and Ant-Man theme so much. I don't see any indoor seating but they do have a spacious patio with tables and chairs. The portion here is enormous, supersized food likes the pretzel or not so little chicken sandwich that is definitely sharable. The line was not so long but I did waited for a good 20 minutes before placing my order with the cast member - who was friendly and efficient but was only by herself at the moment. So, totally recommend place your order ahead of time through the app. Waiting time in line was quite long but my order was ready under 10 minutes, I got Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese with Tator Tots and Proton Potation (Vodka, Lemonade and Grenadine with Cherry-flavored Popping Spheres) for drink. The grilled cheese was pretty good in flavor, it was savory and spicy, loaded with pork belly, but really really oily, I gave up after 2 bites. Meanwhile, the Tator Tots have a really nice crunchy texture to it, very crispy and tasty, I really like it. The Proton Potation was just okay, I personally doesn't feel there is a lot of alcohol in it but the cherry popping boba's taste was artificial. Should have asked for the straw or spoon because I ended up wasting 80% of the popping boba after I finished the drink. Overall, I really like the concept but my experience at Pym Test Kitchen for LNY special food item was just okay. It still a pretty cool spot to check it out and taste test their yummy Tator Tots!

    Not so little chicken sandwich
    Catherine Z.

    We got the chicken sandwich and it was delicious! Definitely smaller than some of the photos we've seen online. Wonderfully seasoned and crispy, and the tater tots were delicious! There was a bit of a wait though so be prepared for that and to share tables with other groups on busy times

    Chilaquiles
    Kristen B.

    We stopped at Pym Test Kitchen for breakfast while visiting Disney California Adventure. We tried the chilaquiles and the Calculated Breakfast. The chilaquiles were just okay. The chips were a bit soggy, which took away from the dish, although I did expect it wouldn't be super authentic. The eggs were good, and the pickled onions on top were actually really tasty and added nice flavor. The bacon was very thin and a little greasy. The Calculated Breakfast was good and we enjoyed it, but it wasn't anything overly exciting. Overall though, the service was nice and the ambiance is always fun and themed really well. We still love visiting California Adventure, and Pym Test Kitchen is a convenient and interesting place to stop while exploring the park.

    Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Portion to Price: 3/5 Overall: Pretty standard fare. The extended review... Food: Pork Belly Grilled Cheese : 3/5 - So this was a Lunar New Year special. I felt like the ratio of cheese to meat was off. It was more meat so the grill cheese feel wasn't there. I should be happy that I'm getting more meat for once but I wasn't cause it felt more like a meat sandwich as opposed to a grilled cheese. Service: 3/5 - Standard service. Mobile ordered! Ambiance: 3/5 - Good outdoor seating area. Portion to Price: 3/5 - Pricing was standard fair for park food.

    Patio
    Rue K.

    Watched a show at the patio!! Yay. So awesome. The Korean spicy pork grill cheese sandwich is yummy but a bit salty. It rained and Disneyland is less crowded. But 1/4 of the patio is wet. Space is not usable. Luckily we found a table which is impossible when it usually doesn't rain. Staff wiped the water off the tables mostly but still wet. Get some paper towels yourself.

    Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese with Potatoe Bites

    Not a healthy option for eating in California Adventure or at least the food we ordered weren't healthy. Had the Quantum Pretzel, obviously lots of carbs but there was also lots of salts so we were thirsty all day at the park. For the size of the pretzel, the Sharp Cheddar Cheese-Beer Sauce was not enough. Need to fill the cheese to the rim of the cup, it was not even half filled. Tried the Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese since it is for a limited time celebrating Lunar New Year. It was delicious but it was also extra greasy to the touch. Surprisingly, Pym still has tots, those were good. The line was long on a Saturday afternoon. It started at the door and took a little over 30 minutes to arrive at the cashier. Seatings are outside and there are a lot of spaces, but it was full. Took awhile to find a spot. Get someone to hunt for a spot and save it while another person wait in line to order, many people were saving spots.

    Chocolate Smash candy bar.  Aka yummy.  Aka giant snickers
    Sajeet S.

    If you're gonna come to California adventure, this is definitely a place you have to come to. If you'd like a Snickers bar and you'd like to be fun and creative this is the best dessert that I think that was present at Disneyland California adventure. It's big and whimsical and tasty and sweet. It tastes fresh. It has all the characteristics of a giant Snickers bar as it should. The service is fine. Your order on the mobile app and Waze. The audience is clean. The children like to watch the pretzel along the conveyor belt

    pasta
    Anjii S.

    Pym Test Kitchen was a letdown. The "giant taco" isn't really a taco at all, it's basically a cold, bland salad awkwardly folded and mislabeled. No salsa. The pasta was equally bland, no flavor payoff at all. On top of that, there's very limited shade, most of those seats are occupied by exhausted guests, not diners which makes an already disappointing meal even less enjoyable. Overall, it just wasn't a pleasant or relaxing experience. Definitely not something I'd go out of my way for again.

Not sure if reservations are required, but this speakeasy is pretty tiny so I can't imagine it can accommodate walk ins. We had a reservation for 8pm on a Friday night. The door is very well hidden, I thought it'd be in a basement around the corner or something. The space is really small, so big groups are not advised. I had the niña fresa, a strawberries and creme type drink. Delicious! If you like sweet drinks, otherwise do not get it. I had the Saturn afterwards. Still a little sweet, but mostly sour. The server came by to say that we only had 25 min left, so we hurriedly ordered a last drink. But when he delivered it, it magically became 5 min! I chugged my drink and was ushered out the door. Overall it was pretty nice but I didn't enjoy having to rush at the very end.

And of course I had to steal some of my son's baked eggs since I loved them so much from my last visit. The Mad Hatter's tea is not a traditional tea, but it was fun and different. It was reasonably priced and came with a glass of sparkling wine that you can enhance with a blue liquid (I believe it's a butterfly tea syrup) to change the color into a beautiful purple hue. The tea served is Tea Forte tea bags, rather than loose leaf teas. They do have the typical tea sandwiches, but there are also additional savory items like a cheese pinwheel and a cheese skewer. In addition to the scone and biscuit, they also had danishes and fruit. Wish they had cream for the scones, but they had jam and butter. Loved seeing all the groups dressed up for their tea parties in their fancy hats and having a great time.

It's clear why they've been a local staple for 11 years this is the original location, and you can really taste the legacy in every dish. We learned that the menu features the favorite recipes of the owner's husband (you'll see his photo on the wall!), and there's a real sense of heart put into the cooking. Everything we ordered was served piping hot and clearly made-to-order. The Menu Highlights: Starters: The fried pickles are a must-order huge, crispy, and battered to perfection. The cornbread muffins with honey butter are a great comfort touch. Mains: My husband went for the smothered pork chop meal with black-eyed peas, which were deeply flavorful and 'soulful' in the best way. My son loved the generous portion of chicken tenders, and my hot wings were a standout the mild sauce is honestly some of the best I've ever tasted. The Surprise Star: I'm still thinking about the garlic fries. They were unapologetically, perfectly garlicky. The Experience: Beyond the food, the service here is top-tier. Everyone was incredibly welcoming, from the person who took our order to our server, who shared the history of the restaurant with us. The space is surprisingly roomy with both comfortable indoor and outdoor options. We'll definitely be back!

My daughter has a shellfish allergy, which she didn't offer up at check in, but our server diligently checked to see what type of shellfish was used in the dish she wanted. I ordered a couple of appetizers - Hawaiian garlic shrimp and the Korean braised pork tacos. The shrimp were delicious and came with bread to mop up that delectable sauce. I wasn't expecting much from the Korean braised pork tacos, but those wound up to be my favorite (though the pancake was a little greasy). The pan-seared scallops were nicely done. The weakest dish was the crispy pork ribs - a little on the dry side and could have used a bit more sauce. It was a fun night out. Definitely sit inside if you can. It may be dark but I feel like the outside seating loses out on the tiki experience. Validated 2-hour parking in the public garage.
