During our last family holiday to Disneyland Paris, we booked a reservation at the new restaurant Pyms kitchen. This family buffet restaurant located in Walt Disney Studios opened in July 2022 when the new Avengers Campus opened within the park. We were super excited to try this dining experience as the restaurant is based on Ant Man and the kids were psyched to try the ‘oversized’ food – we love anything that is themed!
This fun restaurant themed to Ant Man is located in Avenger Campus in Walt Disney Studio’s park. When arriving into the park, go though the ticket kiosks and head into the building straight infront of you. When out the other side, you will see Tower of Terror. Bear left and you will come to the entrance of Avengers Campus. The restaurant is on the left opposite Spiderman Webslingers.
Upon entrance to the restaurant you can immediately notice the cool theming to Ant Man. Look above and you can see what looks like to be laboratory tubing and decor. Straight ahead is the buffet area and above here you’ll see some theming to where the food is becoming either super sized or shrunk to be a smaller version!
Located around the restaurant is huge graphics of Ant Man and food – you can see below the Pretzels becoming extra large!
After a couple of minutes wait, we were taken to our seat and our server came over and introduced himself. He asked us what we thought of the training…? We became confused but we quickly realised we had to become in character to the theming of the restaurant (which he explained to us!) and we really loved the interactive welcome as we became trainees! We ordered some drinks (which soft drinks are included in the buffet price) and then once they arrived we headed up to the buffet. The kids were super happy to have their apple juice in laboratory jars!
As always, with any buffet, we headed to the starter section first. I grabbed a plate of bread rolls for the table and then proceeded to fill my plate with chicken caesar salad (who said Disney is all about fast food!), cured meats, Doritos and freshly made guac. You’ll already notice the super sized breaded croutons on the salad which is a great touch!
The kids enjoyed some of the salad items too.
We then moved on to the mains section of the buffet. Here, you will find the super sized pretzel sandwich, extra large burger and mini burgers, extra long hot dogs and super long green beans! We loved this theming of the food and enjoyed it even more because of it! I enjoyed the mini burgers, corn dogs, green beans, prawn stir fry, fries and blue mayo and the jambalaya! There is plentiful choice (a few items were the same from the Plaza Gardens character dinner too) but as we had this the night previous, I chose alternative dishes.
We’d heard mixed reviews about the food at Pyms Kitchen, with some complaining about how some of the food came out cold. However, we couldn’t fault our experience and we all enjoyed our meals thoroughly. We loved the pretzel that was brought over to our table and my kids love helping themselves to the buffet items, encouraging them to try new things.
If you have a fussy eater, there is a pasta bar where the chefs will make up a pasta with or without a sauce and there is also a kids station too serving fries, chicken nuggets, mac and cheese and veg.
There was lots of desserts to choose from once our tummy’s had settled from our mains. Some were super sized like the giant red velvet cake and I also love the mini desserts and chocolate pots topped with smarties. There is also a soft serve ice cream station that my kids loved, with toppings too such as crushed Oreos! For me, my favourites were the mini donuts and the mini Ant man cheese cake – one of the best I have ever had!

Overall, we LOVED this immersive and themed buffet restaurant and is a great addition to Disneyland Paris! The theming is excellent, the food is yummy and lots of fun and had us talking for a good while after about our experience! We also loved the layout of this restaurant with spacious seating and windows overlooking out to Avengers campus.
As of 2023, the prices are 45 Euros for an adult and 25 Euros for a child aged up to 11 (my son is 12 and no questions asked). Soft drinks are also included in this price. In terms of it being busy, it was the day before New Years Eve and surprisingly not overly busy. We dined at 2pm so perhaps a later lunch or earlier dinner works to avoid crowds.
Would we visit Pyms Kitchen again? Absolutely!
