food IS a theme park
When Disney World reopened last year, not all of its hotels opened with it.
Now that’s a view!
Although some of those hotels have reopened since, others still remain closed, including Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. Currently, the Disney Vacation Club’s Boulder Ridge Villas and Copper Creek Villas & Cabins are open, but the non-Disney Vacation Club rooms remain closed.
We are ALL about Disney food — seriously, it’s in our name!
Joy of Tea… but what’s that beside the register?
And we love seeing merchandise repping some of our favorite snacks. We’ve seen Vera Bradley bags covered in Disney snacks, Donut Minnie Ears, Popcorn Bucket Keychains, and more!
Calling all brunch fans! Another brunch option is BACK in Disney World!
Olivia’s Cafe
Located at Disney’s Old Key West Resort, Olivia’s Cafe is a laidback table-service restaurant that serves up classic American fare as well as food inspired by the Florida Keys. And starting today, April 3rd, weekend brunch has also returned to this hidden gem!
In Disney World, you don’t have to look very far to find adorable merchandise.
Marketplace Co-Op
In a sea of endless Minnie Ears and Spirit Jerseys, there are also a bunch of other items in Disney World that you can use outside of the parks in everyday life!
It’s officially spring, and that means we’re seeing a lot of updates on restaurant menus, as well as ALL kinds of spring snacks!
New sangria? We’re there!
We’ve been eating a lot of treats with bunnies AND Peeps on them, and we’ve been tasting our way through some drinks all over Disney World.
It’s no secret that we LOVE Gideon’s Bakehouse, and we head over to the Disney Springs location almost every chance we get!
Inside one of our favorite cookie and cake spots!
And we’ve had so many yummy treats there, including a Coffee Cake Cookie, a PB Chocolate Swirl Cookie, and a slice of Hazelnut Mocha Cake! Earlier this week, we tried a new cookie at Gideon’s inspired by the Flavors of Florida. Now, we’re trying a cake slice that also celebrates Floridian flavors!Â
Just like that, the month of March has come to a close! It has been quite a wild month, from the EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival kicking off to TONS of theme park news (including the long-awaited reopening announcement of Disneyland!).
Spaceship Earth
Over at Disney World, it was a FULL month of food and beverages, from festivals to seasonal holiday treats to everything in between! Before we leap into April, let’s take a look back at some of the best and worst snacks we had across Disney World for the past month!
Are you missing Disney World right now?
EPCOT
If so, you’re not alone! Every time we leave the parks, we start missing them all over again. Thankfully, here at DFB, we have a great way to help relive our trip after we get home — Disney recipes! We have recipes for TONS of fan-favorite foods from around the parks on our site, and today we’re sharing some of the best recipes from EPCOT specifically. Let’s get cooking!
Earlier this year, Disney announced that the Jungle Cruise attraction would be undergoing some changes at both Disneyland and Disney World!
Jungle Cruise
The ride will be receiving a new storyline with new scenes along the river, unexpected scenarios, and an expanded backstory focusing on Alberta Falls, the proprietor of the Jungle Navigation Company Ltd. Now, some more updates about the changes coming to this attraction have been revealed!
Today, we stopped by Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to check out a restaurant that recently extended its hours!
Animal Kingdom Lodge
The Mara was previously only open for breakfast, but now it’s back to offering dinner! We made a quick visit and grabbed some dessert along the way. Surprised? You shouldn’t be.
