On August 31, 2023, San Fransokyo Square opened in Disney California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort. This new area of the park brings the world seen in Big Hero 6 into the Disney Parks. This new area is an imaginative combination of San Francisco and Tokyo in the not-so-distant future.

San Fransokyo includes multiple restaurants, the 54-foot-tall San Fransokyo Gate Bridge, a merchandise location, and even the chance to meet Hiro Hamada and Baymax.

Experiences

  • Hamada Bot Shop – Guests have the opportunity to interact with Hiro and Baymax outside a converted warehouse, where the Big Hero 6 team builds their hi-tech gear. 
  • The Bakery Tour – A behind-the-scenes tour of a real bakery gives a look – and taste – of how the world-famous Boudin sourdough bread is made. 

San Fransokyo Square Foods

The diverse array of food and beverages in San Fransokyo Square includes guest favorites and new creations inspired by Asian cuisine, as well as the Big Hero 6 themselves. 

  • Aunt Cass Café – The second bakery café operated by Hiro’s loving aunt serves dishes, soups in freshly-baked Boudin sourdough bread bowls and more inspired by Japanese cuisine. 
  • Port of San Fransokyo Cervecería – This new location draws inspiration from its tri-cultural influences with signage in English, Japanese and Spanish. An inviting beer garden makes a relaxing setting for guests to enjoy snacks and those 21 and older to sip on a selection of alcoholic beverages. 
  • Lucky Fortune Cookery – Foodies of all ages can choose from a delicious menu of dishes and beverages with Japanese, Vietnamese and Korean influences. 
  • Cocina Cucamonga Mexican Grill – A variety of street tacos, specialty beverages and a special street corn bring Mexican flair to San Fransokyo Square. 
  • Rita’s Turbine Blenders – Featuring margaritas and icy beverages, this refreshment stand is named after the repair technician who maintains the floating wind turbine, resembling a giant koi fish, that sits atop the structure.  
  • Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop – Hot fudge, made with melted Ghirardelli chocolate, sits atop signature sundaes, ice cream cones, shakes and more. 
  • Cappuccino Cart – A cart near the San Fransokyo Gate Bridge offers energizing pick-me-ups presented by Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Company, such as cold brew, espressos, coffee cocktails and more. 

Shopping 

  • San Fransokyo Maker’s Market – Situated on robot storage cases with decommissioned bots on display, this storefront is stocked with apparel, homewares and more featuring Baymax and friends. 
  • Collectible medallions – A vending machine dispenses collectible golden medallions depicting Baymax and other iconic images from San Fransokyo. 
  • Pan Pacific Pin Traders – Guests can shop and trade at this “pin-credible” port of call near the San Fransokyo Gate Bridge.
