food IS a theme park
It’s completely normal for things to close in Disney World!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
What do we mean? Well, Disney World rides, attractions, shows, and hotel rooms often close temporarily to get refurbished and fixed up. Sometimes it’s routine maintenance, sometimes it’s to fix something that’s broken, and sometimes it’s a complete refresh. (Like with many of the hotel room updates we’ve seen recently!) Now, a popular Disney World restaurant has closed for a short refurbishment.
EPCOT’s 2022 International Food & Wine Festival kicked off back in mid-July, but not all of the food booths were open, until now!
Hawai’i 2022
We’ve already tried a ton of food from the festival, like some old favorites, new surprises, and a few disappointments. But, we’ve been waiting for the rest of the booths to open up! A handful of booths are finally opening up today, including a big fan favorite — Hawai’i! So, let’s see if this booth still lives up to the hype.
When it comes to making your way around Disney World, you’ve got plenty of transportation options.
Disney Skyliner
You can take monorails, boats, buses — even Minnie Vans! Disney’s newest method of transportation — the Skyliner — debuted in 2019 and has given a whole new meaning to the term “scenic route.” But, if you’re heading to Disney World in the future be warned — the Skyliner will be closing for refurbishment SOON and we’ve got all the details!
If you’re planning a trip to Disney World in 2023 and you have a list of must-do restaurants to visit, you need to know which restaurants might give you the hardest time when you’re trying to book your Advance Dining Reservations.
Dining in Disney World isn’t always easy!
Booking a dining reservation isn’t always difficult in Disney World, but a few table service restaurants make it a little trickier than others. We don’t want you to walk away from your trip disappointed, so let’s go over which restaurant reservations will be the HARDEST to get in 2023!
Hello from Disney Springs!
Disney Springs
Disney Springs is one of the best places to go if you’re looking for shopping, dining, and entertainment in Disney World. There are dozens of restaurants, stores, and unique entertainment offerings that you could easily spend an entire day there, and today, we’re heading to Disney Springs to take a look at what’s new!
Here at DFB, we love food (of course we do — it’s in our name!). That’s why one of our favorite things to do at Disney World is trying new food.
BoardWalk Deli
Disney recently announced that the BoardWalk Bakery at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn was going to be replaced with the BoardWalk Deli. Now, in addition to pastries, this location will serve up things like breakfast sandwiches, subs, wraps, and more. We’ve watched the BoardWalk Bakery slowly be transformed into the BoardWalk Deli, and now the Deli has finally opened! Let’s go check it out.
The 2022 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival kicked off in Disney World about a month ago with lots of exciting and delicious food and drink items to try.
2022 Coastal Eats Booth
Disney had previously shared that some of the festival booths would not be available at the start of the festival but would instead be opening at a later date. Well, that date has finally arrived and it’s time for us to try the remaining Food and Wine Festival booths! So buckle up because we’re heading to Coastal Eats!
If you haven’t been to the parks lately, Disney World may look different during your next visit.Â
Winnie the Pooh
Of course, there have been big changes, like the new attractions, services, and shows appearing around the parks. But we’ve also seen changes in the form of returned offerings, like traditional character meet-and-greets and holiday parties. And, speaking of meet-and-greets, we’ve seen a toooooon of characters return to the parks recently. And the momentum isn’t stopping, as some familiar friends popped up in Magic Kingdom today!
Are you feeling the fall spirit?
Is there anything prettier than fall at Disney?
So yeah it’s still technically summer, but we are ready for fall! This month saw the start of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, the release of new Halloween merchandise, and the arrival of new fall snacks and treats. It may still be 98 degrees outside, but we are super excited to see these 3 returning autumn-themed desserts in Disney World!
It’s a BIG DAY on Disney’s BoardWalk!
Disney’s BoardWalk
The waterfront stretch of shopping, dining, and entertainment attached to Disney’s BoardWalk Inn is going through quite a few changes. The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers is under construction, and we just got to experience the opening day of the NEW BoardWalk Deli! While we were there, we happened to notice that there was a change to another quick-service spot on the BoardWalk, and we’re sharing everything you need to know.
