Knott’s Berry Farm Veteran's Day: Fireworks, Food, and Fun

Is there anything better than fireworks, good food, and great company? Throw in some carbs and a few cocktails, and now we’re talking. So, in honor of Veterans Day, we headed to Knott’s Berry Farm for a night of carbs, camaraderie, and colorful explosions. Here’s the inside scoop on our little patriotic party in the park.

Let’s just say it: everything tastes better when it’s served in a bread bowl. Don’t fight it, we all know it’s true. We kicked things off in Ghost Town at Miner’s Mac & Spuds, and I was all about that chicken pot pie... in a bread bowl. Yes, you read that right. Carbs on carbs—what could go wrong? This savory delight came with a golden puff pastry wedge on top, adding an extra crisp to an already mouth-watering dish.

Pro tip: don’t eat the whole bread bowl or else you’ll end up in a food coma before the fireworks even start. Pace yourself, folks. There's more fun to be had.

After our carb-fueled feast, we made our way to Mrs. Murphy’s Kitchen for a round of drinks. The espresso martinis are a must—smooth, energizing, and a real steal.

After all that deliciousness, we made our way to the Boardwalk to stake out a prime spot for the Veterans Day fireworks show. You know those people who arrive an hour early just to claim the perfect view? Yep, that’s me. But honestly, it’s worth it.
