At a glance
The Old Mill is a takeaway snack kiosk in Fantasyland, at Disneyland Park. The building is an old windmill from a ride that has since closed, Les Pirouettes du Vieux Moulin, a Ferris wheel with views over the park, inspired by the Disney animated short "The Old Mill" (1937). The windmill was turned into a food outlet while keeping its original look.
The setting is still rustic: a wooden structure, a colourful tiled roof, windmill sails outside, a rooster weather vane, exposed beams and millstones. It all blends into the surrounding greenery of Fantasyland.
The offer focuses on afternoon snacks and drinks: sweet treats and cold or hot drinks.
A snack stop in an old mill. This kiosk occupies the wooden structure of a former ride that has since disappeared from the park, inspired by the short film The Old Mill. You can buy chips and sweet treats to take away. Its rustic architecture makes it a major landmark in Fantasyland.

History
Opened on 12 April 1992, the Dutch windmill-shaped building originally housed a snack counter on the ground floor and a mechanical ride called Les Pirouettes du Vieux Moulin.
The ride ran from 1993 to 2002 before being permanently abandoned for technical reasons. The gondolas, kept for a while on the front of the building as decoration, were removed in 2011, and since then the building has only been used as a seasonal quick-service outlet.

My verdict
The Old Mill is a small kiosk in Fantasyland set in an old mill, selling snacks to take away. Its big draw is the rustic setting full of history, a remnant of a ride that has disappeared.
I’ve eaten here several times and I love the history of the place, a former ride turned into a snack stop, which also sells mini pancakes called poffertjes, for around €7. The mill setting, open since 1992, has real charm. It only sells snacks, opening hours are limited and crowds build just after the parade. It’s a charming stop.
Recommended for an original sweet break and for fans of the park’s history. Less suitable if you’re looking for a full hot meal.

Your questions about this restaurant
01 Where can you eat cheaply in the Disneyland Paris parks?
To keep costs down, go for the quick-service counters rated €. Casey’s Corner serves hot dogs on Main Street, Café Hyperion does burgers and nuggets in Discoveryland, Colonel Hathi’s Outpost Restaurant serves pizza slices in Adventureland, and Cowboy Cookout Barbecue in Frontierland is still a good deal. Over at Disney Adventure World, Stark Factory and Super Diner remain affordable. Tip: Mobile Order (Click & Collect) in the app also lets you order at some counters without having to queue. And if you’re a bit peckish, a snack (waffle, churros, ice cream) for €5 to €10 does the job nicely.
02 Are there kids’ menus in the Disney restaurants?
Yes, almost all Disneyland Paris restaurants offer a child price (ages 3-11). In the all-you-can-eat buffets, children pay around half price: Agrabah Café at €25, Cape Cod at €25, La Cantina at €20. Classic table-service restaurants also have a children’s set menu with a suitable starter, main course and dessert. At the quick-service counters, you’ll find kids’ set meals with a drink and a dessert included. You can ask for a high chair when you book, using the "special request" field.
03 Are there vegetarian and vegan options in the Disneyland Paris restaurants?
Yes, more and more Disneyland Paris restaurants offer vegetarian and vegan options. The Lucky Nugget Saloon in Frontierland serves a full vegan set menu, and Toad Hall Restaurant in Fantasyland has really nice breaded plant-based crispy bites. Most other table-service restaurants and buffets have at least one vegetarian dish on the menu. Simpler buffets such as Agrabah Café or Cape Cod also offer meat-free alternatives.

04 Where can you get an afternoon snack or a quick bite in the parks?
The parks are full of kiosks and snack stands for when you’re a bit peckish. For something sweet, there’s Cookie Kitchen on Main Street U.S.A., March Hare Refreshments in Fantasyland, waffle and churros stands just about everywhere, and roaming popcorn and ice cream sellers. For something savoury, the hot dogs at Casey’s Corner. Allow €5 to €10 per snack. Little tip: some stands sell reusable collectible popcorn buckets that make lovely souvenirs and give you refills at a reduced price all day.
05 How much does a meal cost at Disneyland Paris?
Prices vary a lot depending on the type of restaurant. As a rough guide (prices change), allow around €15 to €25 per adult at a quick-service counter (€), €30 to €50 at a classic table-service restaurant (€€), and €60 and over at the premium buffets or signature restaurants (€€€ and €€€€). To give you some concrete benchmarks: the Agrabah Café buffet is €45 per adult / €25 per child, Cape Cod €45 / €25, La Cantina €35 / €20. Character dining set menus such as Auberge de Cendrillon go up to €60-95 per adult. For snacks (ice cream, waffle, churros), allow €5 to €10. These ranges are approximate, and you can check the exact price on each restaurant’s menu.
