A Very Merry Guide On What To Eat At Knott’s Berry Farm This Holiday Season

There’s a special time from November to January that Knott’s Berry Farm gets into the holiday spirit and transforms itself into Knott’s Merry Farm, all while showcasing a flurry of seasonal eats that awaken appetites as much as the winter chill.

There’s nothing like the energy of the holidays, and a part of that is all the merry meals that we enjoy at this time of the year. With Knott’s already the experts in theme park food, it’s no wonder that Foodbeasts Marc, Anna, and Hunter pulled up to Knott’s Merry Farm this year anticipating all the eats like it was Christmas morning. Here’s a look at what they unwrapped for their eager palates.

Christmas Caesar Salad Hot Dog

The most unexpected glizzy can be found at Wilderness Dogs and Drinks. This holiday surprise can give you the excuse that this hot dog is technically a salad — so call a spade a spade and this frank healthy.

Seasonal Tamales Fries

Just when we thought we’ve seen all the possibilities of loaded fries, Knott’s Merry Farm goes and wows us like we just saw Santa sipping a milkshake in a snowstorm. This drool-worthy creation at Papa’s Mexicana is a holiday must.

German Chocolate Funnel Cake

Ghost Town Grub has what Hunter calls, “a chocolate lover’s funnel cake.” And he’s right, because the theme park favorite gets gussied up to play a German Chocolate Cake for the holidays with chocolate drizzle, coconut topping, and soft serve.

Turkey Ball

If you’re all about efficiency, this holiday dinner rolled into a ball is what you need to sink your teeth into. Think Christmas dinner that’s breaded and deep-fried, then laid out on a bed of mashed potatoes, gravy, and green bean almondine. Get your fix at Gold Mine Trail Booths.

Gobble Gobble Turkey Dinner Baked Potato

Continuing that efficient energy is this convenient dish. If a baked potato can unlock the beauty of a holiday meal, then what you have is this yuletide unit that can be found at Miner’s Mac and Spuds.

French Onion Beef Dip Tater Tots

Knott’s Merry Farm is not playing when it comes to the winter wow factor. Shut your cravings all the way down with this loaded tater tot masterpiece. It’s a wonder how these tots capture the essence of both French Onion Soup and a French Dip sandwich all in one go. And speaking of ‘go’, go ahead and get these at Calico Tater Bites.

Yellow Snow Funnel Cake

Don’t let the name fool you, there’s nothing suspicious about these funnel cakes. Marc called this treat a “citrus explosion” and who can blame him when there’s a whole lemon bar sitting pretty atop the funnel cake. Let Log Ride Funnel serve you up a plate of this sweet sensation.

Cinnamon Sugar Indian Fry Bread

This is the holiday Treat Yourself Tour and you’ve made a stop at this gorgeous dish. Pile on the goodies like various fruits, nuts, drizzles, and ice cream and you’ve got this Fry Bread that’s a Must-Try Bread at Santa’s Christmas Cabin.

Chili Cheese Footlong

Knott’s has A1 chili, as Hunter can attest. When it’s laid on thick atop a footlong glizzy, then we don’t blame Marc for letting his eyes grow as wide as they did when he scoped out this dog at Gold Mine Trail Booths.

Gingerbread People

Ghost Town Bakery’s definitely got this classic holiday treat. Question is, are you chomping on the head first or a limb?

Cheesecake On A Stick Dipped Chocolate

Santa’s Christmas Cabin knows that there’s levels to this because a regular cheesecake isn’t good enough for Saint Nick. It has to be on a stick and dipped in chocolate to pass his judicious eyes.
