food IS a theme park
Today’s restaurant ranking video is gonna be one of the WILDEST and (potentially) most UNPREDICTABLE of the ranking videos we’ve done so far.
Spread from Skipper Canteen in Magic Kingdom
Why? Because the way we feel about Magic Kingdom’s restaurants have drastically CHANGED as of late. (And we wanna make sure you’re kept in the loop when it comes to what places are impressing us… and which are leaving something to be desired.)

It is STILL January. Is it just us or does it feel like January has lasted 584 days?
It looks gloomy and cold in Magic Kingdom!
It feels like ages ago that we rang in the new year. Unfortunately, we’re still in the winter months. Now, that doesn’t always mean cold winter weather in Disney World. Some days we’ve seen it nearing 80 degrees in Disney World this month. But the next couple of days are here to remind us that, yes, we are still in January.
We’ve seen some pretty darn cute things during our time as Disney fans.
Magic Kingdom
From little kids meeting their favorite characters in the parks to families watching the fireworks at Magic Kingdom for the first time, the life of a Disney fan pretty much includes “Aww!” and “How precious!” on a constant rotation in your vocabulary. And if you’re an animal lover, you’re about to smile so hard your cheeks hurt!
Many Disney World guests love staying at Disney hotels for the magic, ambiance, and the perks of staying on property.
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn
However, there are a few downfalls to staying on property — the highest price tags, there aren’t as many perks as there were a few years ago, and if you get back from the parks late and want a snack, many of the dining locations in the hotels don’t stay open very late. This also means that it’s hard to refill a resort refillable mug until the morning, which can be annoying. But what if we told you there’s a loophole?
One of the absolute BEST parts of visiting Disney World is checking out the seemingly endless list of live entertainment.
Festival of Fantasy
From fireworks shows to parades, there’s some sort of live entertainment option in each of the Disney World parks, some even taking place multiple times a day. One of the most iconic parades to take place in Disney World happens each day at Magic Kingdom — the Festival of Fantasy parade! Each day at 3PM, you can catch all of the most beloved classic Disney characters as they dance their way from Frontierland to Main Street, U.S.A.. If you love the Festival of Fantasy parade, or you’re hoping to catch it for the first time on your upcoming Disney trip, you’re going to want to keep reading!

Disney World snacks are life!
Citrus Dream Donut
You might say “We’re here for the snacks” and it would be totally true. But not all snacks are made the same. You might find the snacks that we LOVE to be, shall we say, not your favorite? Let’s talk about it!
Disney World’s Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel may be closed for good, but that might not be the end of the story.
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser
The immersive, cruise-like experience was shuttered after it turned out that the cost to run the hotel was too much compared to the amount of money it was bringing in. Disney hasn’t made any sort of announcements about what could be next for the space or if we’d ever see anything like the Star Wars Hotel again, but we think we may have found our first hint.
Does Disney World even have a slow season anymore?
Cinderella Castle
Sure, the holiday season may be over, but can you really count on wait times to go down in the parks come January? Planning a Disney World trip certainly isn’t easy, and when you’ve got long lines and crowds to worry about, things can get overwhelming pretty quickly. But, that’s where we come in!
There’s a NEW freebie for Annual Passholders in Disney World!
Disney World Annual Pass
There are a few distinct perks to getting a Disney World annual pass — from merchandise and food discounts to savings on hotel rooms, shelling out for the year-round ticket definitely has its advantages. But one of the smaller perks that draws some BIG attention is the Annual Passholder magnets! And there’s a new one in EPCOT right now.
