4 Disney’s Hollywood Studios Restaurants Where We Promise Your Lunch Will Cost Less Than That $18 Viral Big Mac Meal

By Leave a Comment

Disney is expensive. That’s a true statement no matter how you book your trip.

Hollywood Studios

There are ways to make your trip cheaper, sure, and we are sure to tell you those every time we can so you know how to ball on a budget! However, the cheapest Disney trip is to not take one, if we’re being honest, but then it’s not a trip at all, so that won’t do! Dining is an area that can easily make or break your budget fast, so if you find yourself in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and want to eat a meal that’ll be filling but also cost the fewest dollars, we’ve got you covered!

NEWS! Disney World Restaurant Menus CHANGED This Week

By Leave a Comment

So it’s been a bit of a quiet week — at least when it comes to food — in Disney World.

Ice cream in EPCOT

But that’s okay because we’ve been busy exploring Disney’s newest hotel expansion, Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. One of the BEST parts of exploring this new property, though, was getting a chance to eat at Wailulu Bar & Grill, the tower’s quick-service restaurant — let’s just say we were impressed (you can read the full review here). However, other Disney World restaurants had some changes this week, so let’s see what’s been updated.

Finally! Disney Is Ditching Stitch.

By 11 Comments

He’s mischievous. He’s sassy. He’s also the sweetest and most lovable alien in Disney World. Stitch is a Disney icon!

Stitch!

Over the past few years, it seems like Disney REALLY leaned into the Stitch craze. It felt like everywhere you turned, Stitch was there. He was taking over Cinderella Castle (yes, he really did cover it with toilet paper), attacking snacks, and crashing other Disney stories. But could 2025 mark a new era? We found an interesting sign that could indicate Disney is FINALLY ditching Stitch.

2025 is on the way, and there are a lot of changes coming to Disney World.

Tons of construction will be beginning in Disney World this upcoming year, which means that the parks are certainly going to look different.

By Leave a Comment

Isn’t it wild how close we are to 2025?!

Welcome to the Most Magical Place on Earth!

And if you’re planning a Disney World trip in 2025, you’re going to want to brace yourself. Three of the four parks – Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios – are about to enter construction chaos. Big changes are coming, which is exciting in the long term, but in the short term? It’s going to be a mess. Let’s break down why these parks might have you reaching for an extra churro (or three) to cope.

Disney World’s Average Wait Times Just Took a Surprising Turn

By Leave a Comment

Every week, we report the average Disney World wait times in every park so that you can be prepared for your next trip to Orlando!

Magic Kingdom

Disney World’s average wait times were surprisingly low this week (considering we’re so close to Christmas), though the Magic Kingdom’s TRON Lightcycle / Run topped the list with the highest average wait at the resort. This was one of the (shockingly) few instances where the wait time averaged over an hour.

ALERT! A Disney World Hotel Pool CLOSURE Is Coming to an END

By Leave a Comment

It might be winter in Florida, but we’re celebrating the reopening of a pool at Disney World!

Port Orleans — French Quarter

A pool at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort—French Quarter briefly closed, but it is once again open to hotel guests! Not too many people might be going swimming in December, but it’s still good to see these refurbishments come to an end.

Something NEW Just Arrived at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

By Leave a Comment

This is a special time to be visiting Disney World.

Animal Kingdom

We’ve already told you how incredible the holiday season can be here, after all, what with the decorations, Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights, and the holiday snacks (the best part, IMHO). We also love visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom this time of year because we get to see the Merry Menagerie. However, there’s also a special nighttime show that gets a holiday update, but this year, ANOTHER update was added to the show (hint: it might have you working on your roar).

REVIEW: This Basic EPCOT Snack Spot Weirdly Impressed Me

By Leave a Comment

We spend a lot of time talking about Disney World restaurants…but what about the snack stands?!

Spaceship Earth at EPCOT

There are seemingly hundreds of little snack stands throughout the parks, each with a different menu and theme. Some of them harbor secretly delicious treats, while others are home to just the basics. And recently, I visited one of Disney World’s most classic snack spots to do a full review!

If This Magic Kingdom Permit Gets Approved, Disney Will Be One Step CLOSER to Starting a HUGE Project

By 1 Comment

A lot will be changing at Magic Kingdom in the upcoming years!

Magic Kingdom

A new Villains land is getting added to the park, a new Pirates of the Caribbean lounge is being created, a new nighttime parade will debut in 2025, and two new Cars attractions will be replacing Tom Sawyer Island and Rivers of America. A few months ago, Disney filed a permit that appeared to be for the early stages of construction for these two Cars attractions. Then, in September, the South Florida Water Management District requested some additional information for the permit, and now we have an update on the status of this permit!
