Disney World closures do happen from time to time — in fact, not everything is even open at Disney World yet!
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique remains closed
Several restaurants in EPCOT are still closed, like Monsieur Paul and Takumi-Tei, and Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique also remains closed in Magic Kingdom (but should be reopening sometime this year!). We keep up with all of the closures at Disney World to help you better plan your trips, and now, a restaurant at a popular Disney World hotel will be closing this summer!
Kona Cafe will be closed starting August 15th, 2022 for refurbishment at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. During the time the spot is closed, you will still be able to use Mobile Order to get select breakfast, lunch, and dinner offerings from Kona Island.

There is no word on how long the closure will last or what changes will be made to the restaurant, but we’ll be sure to keep an eye out and let you know as soon as more news is announced!
Sushi Bar at Kona Cafe

Oh, oh; every time I see the word ‘refurbishment’ it usually means ‘let’s take out the theming and make it generic’. I hope I’m wrong.
Bad news, I love Kona and have dined there many times for both Breakfast and Dinner. Great food, I hope they do not change the menu. As good as O’hana is now, it was much better food wise back in the 1990-2005 time frame. Kona has been consistently good over the years.
Why in the world didn’t they renovate Kona Cafe when they renovated the Polynesian! 🙄
This isn’t really a comment so may not be the place to ask this but do you have any information on the reopening of 1900 Park Fare?
Hi Tracy! As soon as Disney releases any information about 1900 Pare Fare, we will be sure to post an update.
we’ll be staying at POFQ for our stay, I know they’re saying you can still mobile order from Kona, but (not very familiar with Poly layout) is there really going to be anywhere to eat the food if you’re not staying at the resort? My husband is really set on trying out breakfast here, but I’m not sure how to make it work.
