food IS a theme park
Do you head straight for Gideon’s Bakehouse when you visit Disney Springs…because, well, we do!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
However, over the past few days, we haven’t been able to get our hands on our favorite cookies because Gideon’s Bakehouse has been temporarily closed — and that closure was recently extended. However, we’ve got some great news: Gideon’s Bakehouse has reopened!
Disney Springs is known for its great food, stellar entertainment, and vibrant nightlife.
Disney Springs
We’ve tried a $140 entree at Jaleo and seen another store close recently in Disney Springs, but on a recent trip out we decided to stop in and review an experience you won’t get anywhere else in Disney World! [Read more…]
If you’ve followed DFB for a while, you know that we have a serious obsession with cheese.
Salt & Straw
We will NEVER stop telling you how much we love plastic cheese (and if we do, call a doctor because there would be something wrong with us). We’re also big fans of that Donut Grilled Cheese sandwich from Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew. So when we discovered that Salt & Straw had put CHEESE in ice cream, well, you know we were running to Disney Springs to try it out.
A new restaurant announcement at Disney World is like Christmas for us here at Disney Food Blog!
Magic Kingdom
And just like kids who sneak around in the weeks before Christmas, trying to discover where their mom and dad hid the presents, we cannot wait for the big day to know what the new restaurant will be like! We scour the internet for clues about the new restaurant’s atmostphere, potential menu items, and prices.
Every month we look forward to the specialty treats at Gideon’s Bakehouse.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
Gideon’s Bakehouse is a small bakery in Disney Springs that serves up some wildly delicious treats. Each month, the bakehouse offers limited-time specialty treats, and since it’s September 1st, the September goodies have been announced!
We’re just going to ignore the hot weather and tell y’all that it’s fall (just work with us here).
Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop
Halloween is already EVERYWHERE in Disney World and Disneyland. We’ve been eating spooky treats (and we have NO regrets). We’ve shamelessly bought Halloween merchandise. Pumpkin Spice is BACK at Starbucks. Yes, the world is healing and the flavors of fall are here. Although we LOVE our pumpkin spice, there’s another flavor that also feels very autumnal.Â
Okay, who’s excited about all the new stuff coming to Disney World?
Disney Springs
We’ll soon have a new attraction in EPCOT, Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana. We’ve got TWO new dining spots coming to Disney’s BoardWalk area, The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers and Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs (bring on the Pickle Corn Dog, y’all!). There’s also a new restaurant coming to Disney Springs and we’ve got a HUGE update about that!
It’s been a HUGE week for food in Disney World.
The Starbucks fall menu is here!
First, we have to talk about ALL THE NEW FALL Starbucks drinks that arrived this week (and we’ll get to that). We also visited Casey’s Corner, one of our fave counter service restaurants, and ate EVERYTHING there. We also ate a hotdog with a boozy shake (#sorrynotsorry). In the meantime, though, Disney World restaurant menus were changing, so let’s see what’s been updated!
A LOT is changing in Disney World, especially at Disney Springs.
Disney Springs
A new restaurant, Summer House on the Lake is coming soon (along with a new connected dessert spot). A LOT of stores have been closing recently. One store recently got a makeover. Well, now, we can report that a NEW store is on its way and we think it’s one to get excited about.
Some Disney World rules are ones that we truly believe make sense.
Disney World!
Like, yes, we totally get all the rules put in place to keep us safe, the rules that protect Disney’s brand and character integrity, and even the rules that prevent people from disrupting others’ vacations. On the other hand, there are some rules that are just absolutely heartbreaking. Well, there’s really only one rule at Disney World that we find heartbreaking, and we’re here to talk about it.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
