We’ve been at one of the biggest Disney events of the year: Destination D23!

We’ve got some pretty awesome news so far about Disneyland Paris, the new Disney Wish cruise ship, and a sneak peek at some of the news things coming to Disney World soon! We haven’t had much news about food yet (which we’ve been excited for, obviously), but that changed as of this morning!
During the event, Josh D’Amaro revealed that there is a BRAND NEW quick service restaurant coming to EPCOT!
EPCOT
The new restaurant is called Connections Cafe and Eatery, and we couldn’t be happier to welcome even MORE food to EPCOT! Disney did not mention a timeline or specific location for the new spot (other than that it will be located in the World Celebration neighborhood), but they did share concept art for the project.
A look at the new Connections Cafe and Eatery!
We’ll be sure to keep you updated on the latest updates about this new Disney World restaurant. Be sure to stay tuned for more news from the D23 event!

Disclosure: In nearly all circumstances, Disney Food Blog writers and photographers pay full price for their own travel, hotel, food, beverage, and event tickets. We do this because it’s important to us as journalists to ensure not only that we give you unbiased opinions, but also that you can trust us to do so since we’re paying our own way. On rare occasions, when we are invited by a company to attend a preview as media, and when we choose to accept that invitation, we will always make you, our readers, aware of that situation. Today, we were invited by Disney World to attend their media event for Destination D23. Note that when we attend events as media we are 1) Not required to review that event/food on any of our channels, and 2) Not required to review that event/food favorably. You can always count on DFB to give you a 100% unbiased and honest review of any event that we attend, food that we eat, or beverage that we drink. You can see more in our Disclosure Policy.

Looks like a redo/relaunch of the Electric Umbrella
I was there hanging on every word he said. I swear I don’t remember him mentioning anything this.
I guess I wasn’t paying close enough attention. 🤷🏼♂️
