food IS a theme park
If you thought Disney World had fully reopened following the 2020 closures — you would be wrong!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
We’ve been patiently waiting for a handful of offerings to return to the parks and hotels, like Afternoon Tea at the Garden View Tea Room and even package delivery for folks staying at Disney World hotels. At Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, 1900 Park Fare is finally reopening on April 10th and we’ve rounded up all the changes you can expect!
It’s Spring Break in Disney World and we’re dealing with a lot of crowds right now.
Pizzafari
That hasn’t stopped us from trying out some new treats this week, though, like a Carrot Tart, a Tower of Terror-themed cookie, Easter Egg macarons, and more. However, Disney World restaurants have been switching up their menus this week, too, so we’ve also been tracking those. Let’s see what changed!
Choosing what Disney hotel to stay at is a heavy decision.
Disney’s Riviera Resort
But what if we told you that inside those hotels, not all rooms are made equally? It’s true — and we’re not just talking about rooms that are closer to the main hub at value hotels, or rooms that are closer to the main gates at park-walkable hotels. THESE are really the best of the best when it comes to Disney hotel rooms!Â
There are a lot of expensive restaurants in Disney World, but only ONE of them is the most expensive of them all.
Victoria & Albert’s
That restaurant is Victoria & Albert’s, located in Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. It has an AAA 5-diamond rating, has been recognized by the Michelin Guide, and is bucket list item for many Disney fans. We’ve had the opportunity to dine at this incredible spot before, and while it was amazing, there are a few things we wished we could have done differently.
It’s been another GREAT week in Disney World.
Speaking of fave snacks…
We’ve been spending time with our favorite snacks (okay, when are we NOT eating?). We learned a secret about Starbucks. We navigated the Spring Break crowds. We even got the new menus for 1900 Park Fare when it reopens! We also kept an eye on other Disney World restaurants and noted any menu changes we saw. So let’s see what’s different this week!
Today is the day when everyone gets to be a little Irish!
EPCOT Monorail
Yes, it’s St. Patrick’s Day in Disney World and we’ve been celebrating by enjoying everything GREEN in Disney World (and no, we’re not talking about the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival topiaries). Yes, today is the day when all green snacks come out to play, so we’re going to give you the full list of all the limited-time snacks you can grab in Disney World.
We have BIG Disney water park news!
Typhoon Lagoon
One water park is reopening this week while another is closing. These two water parks frequently flip flop being open and closed for refurbishment. Is your favorite Disney World water opening or closing this week? Let’s find out!
It’s reopening soon!
Today, March 12th, is an exciting day in Disney World, specifically at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort!
Disney’s Grand Floridian
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort is home to some shining stars in terms of places to eat in Disney World. You can get a world-class meal at Victoria & Albert’s, celebrate a special event at Citricos, go out for date night at Narcoossee’s, or grab and go from Gasparilla Island Grill. But one very special dining location has yet to re-open since its closure in 2020 — 1900 Park Fare. Now that’s soon to change! The character restaurant is set to re-open on April 10th, and Disney just shared NEW details!
Some Disney World restaurants are one-and-done because the experience is cool but the food is…underwhelming. But that’s not the case with the three restaurants we’re talking about today.
Victoria & Albert’s
When it comes to dining at Disney World, there are options for just about every preference: character meals, themed restaurants, budget-friendly spots, and LUXURIOUS experiences. Some of the MOST luxurious restaurants in Disney World are incredible, with a beautiful atmosphere and even better food. But the prices at these places mean they’re once-in-a-lifetime experiences for most of us!
