We’ve seen quite a few menu changes in Disney World recently with the announcements of restaurants reopening.
We can’t wait to eat here soon!
When ‘Ohana’s reopening was announced, we noticed our beloved noodles weren’t on the menu along with several other changes (don’t worry, the noodles are back now!). Citricos was just announced to be reopening with a whole new menu to go along with its reimagining. And now, another favorite Disney restaurant might not have one of its most beloved comfort foods on the menu when it reopens its doors!
Trail’s End at The Campsites at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort was just announced to be reopening on July 17th.
Trail’s End Restaurant
Disney shared some of the menu offerings, but we noticed that a certain dinner staple was not mentioned…the fried chicken! WHERE IS THE FRIED CHICKEN?!
*extreme Blink-182 voice* WHERE ARE YOU?!
As of right now, Fried Chicken is not listed on the online menu.
The restaurant will now be family-style instead of a buffet!
The Disney announcement said “Dinner at Trail’s End is a rootin’ tootin’ good time that starts with hushpuppies and skillet cornbread with a chopped garden salad for the table. The family-style Smokehouse Skillet comes with pecan-smoked brisket, rotisserie chicken, andouille sausage, fingerlings potatoes, green beans, and buttered corn on the cob. Pork spare ribs, peel n’ eat shrimp, and cornbread-crusted salmon are available as tasty add-ons to your meal.”

For now, we just have to hope it’ll make its way onto the menu! We’ll update you as soon as we hear anything fried chicken-related, so stay tuned to DFB!

I WANT MY FRIED CHICKEN, DISNEY!
PJ’s qs next door still has fried chicken on the menu. Same kitchen I think. 🤔
Bring back fried chicken and the strawberry shortcake!!!!!
I agree with Mary Jo Honeycutt – P&J’s take-out has had fried chicken all along, and all the restaurants in that building have always shared a kitchen. The fried chicken at P&Js is the fried chicken you used to get at Trail’s End is the fried chicken you used to get at Hoop-de-Doo. It makes no sense to keep it at P&Js and not bring it back to Trail’s End. I hope this doesn’t mean they’ll take it away from P&Js!
I suspect fried chicken was removed because of the US chicken shortage.
Yes, please bring back the chicken
