Earl of Sandwich debuted its all-new flagship location at Downtown Disney District in Anaheim on July 15 with a ribbon-cutting and appearances from Earl of Sandwich founder, Robert Earl and Mickey Mouse. Fans waved small Union Jacks to celebrate the opening.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been around Downtown Disney for 14 years, we\u2019ve had five different homes,\u201d Earl said. \u201cHere we are now, ready to open our permanent structure. We are just over the moon.\u201d<\/p>\n

The original Earl of Sandwich restaurant at Downtown Disney was demolished in 2022 and moved around the resort as the new flagship was built. Most recently, Earl of Sandwich served its popular sandwiches, wraps and salads from a red trailer located near the Lululemon store. The new location has made some considerable upgrades.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs well as being favorite here for so long and maintaining our prices that are very, very competitive and attractive for a lot of people, we have put a few new innovations here, and you will see those when you come in today,\u201d Earl said. \u201cWe\u2019ve enhanced our toasted, hot sandwiches with a new special carvery.\u201d<\/p>\n

The carvery is a centerpiece experience at the fast casual eatery where guests can see staff members slice premium pastrami to order for the new Earl\u2019s pastrami sandwich, made with the slow-cooked pastrami, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, dijonnaise and Thousand Island dressing on marbled rye. An overwhelming selection of over-sized cookies, topped with caramel and KitKat candy bars or studded with M&M\u2019s are also available, while the Pub pours draft beers, wines and frozen cocktails.<\/p>\n

Jason Smith, vice president of Disneyland Resort Hotels and Downtown Disney District; Disney ambassador Michele Mary and the honorable Luke Montagu, the 12th Earl of Sandwich, a direct descendant of the dignitary credited with the concept of the sandwich, were also present for the grand opening. Montagu spoke about his lineage, the origins of the beloved food and mentioned his own favorite sandwich: a hot pastrami.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis sandwich sustained me in New York when I was studying at Columbia University through many New York winters,\u201d Montagu said. \u201cOf course, the sandwich has come a long way since the 4th Earl put a slice of beef between two slices of bread, so he didn\u2019t have to stop working \u2014 or gambling is another possibility. Eight Earls later, or nine if you count Robert Earl, I think we have now arrived at peak sandwich.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earl of Sandwich is on the first level of a new building that also houses Brit pop-themed restaurant from \u201cHell\u2019s Kitchen\u201d star, chef Gordon Ramsay. <\/p>\n

Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby soft opened to the public this week too. Inspired by the swinging \u201960s and the famed Carnaby Street in London, the Disneyland Resort announced the concept late last year.<\/a> <\/p>\n

Those lucky enough to get a reservation can enjoy classic dishes from across the pond, including fish & chips with mushy peas and triple-cooked fries, and sticky toffee pudding, bangers & mash and cottage pie. Ramsay\u2019s signature beef Wellington, served in a red wine demi with potato pur\u00e9e and a fresh herb salad, has been a standout for early visitors along with the restaurant\u2019s tableside prime rib cart experience.<\/p>\n

While the restaurant is currently soft open for dinner only, breakfast and lunch service will roll out in the coming months.<\/p>\n

Earl of Sandwich, at 1553 Disneyland Drive, Anaheim, is open from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily. Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby is soft open with dinner nightly from 4:30 p.m. to 10 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Earl of Sandwich debuted its all-new flagship location at Downtown Disney District in Anaheim on July 15 with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":401083,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164,161035,9786,9789,20638,9785,9790,9784,161037,161038,4694,161036,9791,161034,35080],"class_list":["post-401082","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-anaheim","tag-anaheim","tag-anaheim-headlines","tag-anaheim-news","tag-british-charm","tag-carnaby","tag-concept","tag-disneyland-resort-hotels","tag-downtown-disney-district","tag-earl","tag-gordon-ramsay","tag-montagu","tag-mushy-pea","tag-new-york","tag-robert-earl","tag-sandwich","tag-sandwich-restaurant","tag-slice"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/401082","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=401082"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/401082\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/401083"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=401082"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=401082"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=401082"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
