food IS a theme park
We could probably write a thousand love songs about Disney Springs.
Disney Springs
Between the shopping, entertainment, and restaurants, it’s a great spot to spend some time on your Disney World trip. But, in typical Disney fashion, this spot changes pretty frequently — and it looks like another update is on the way. Another store has suddenly closed at Disney Springs!
Deciding where to eat in Disney World is one of the biggest challenges you’ll face when planning your vacation.
Crystal Palace
“Challenge?” you may ask. “That sounds like fun!” But here’s the thing — there are DOZENS of places to eat all over the parks and resorts, with pretty much every type of cuisine imaginable. How do you choose with that many options? If you’re struggling, today we’re here to possibly help you narrow down your options. Let’s talk about those prix fixe meals!
STAY CALM. We only have ONE WEEK until the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival begins!
Mexico Booth Items 2022
This is our favorite event of the year in Disney World, and we cannot WAIT to taste all the delicious eats at the food booths throughout the park. There are a bunch of new menu items coming in 2023, but it looks like Disney is STILL making some last-minute changes to the plans. One of the new menu items previously announced has been scrapped!
With SO many food choices in EPCOT, it can be hard to figure out where to stop for lunch.
EPCOT
The World Showcase is full of restaurants with globally-inspired cuisine, and with the park’s major transformation, we’ve even got new dining locations to enjoy. If there is a festival going on (and there often is), there are even more choices to decide between. So, we hit up every place we can to bring you reviews to make your decision process a little easier. Today, let’s take a look at one of the quick service options in the France pavilion: Crêpes À Emporter.
The opening of the NEW Moana-themed attraction — Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana — is getting closer and closer, and the space is looking much more complete these days.
EPCOT
We’ve been tracking its construction for a long time, listening for new things near the attraction, and watching for opening date details (of course). The walk-through attraction is not set to open until the fall of 2023, but BOY is it looking different these days compared to where it was even just a few months ago. And as we stopped by recently, we noticed even more new things!
We love dining at the Disney parks — that’s certainly no secret. But, what if we told you we did have a secret we hadn’t shared yet when it comes to eating around Disney World?
Full spread at Garden Grill
We know, we know — you’ve probably read all the tips and tricks and are probably thinking there couldn’t possibly be something you don’t know. We’re sharing a hidden, limited-time way you can actually snag a deal on dining at certain restaurants around Disney World — so buckle up!
If one of your goals in life is to travel around the world in a single day, just go to EPCOT!
You can travel the world at EPCOT
Yep! While you visit EPCOT, you can travel to 11 different countries and experience food, art, and architecture specific to each country. What’s even better is that you can wander the shops and take in the endless array of merchandise themed to each country, as well as items imported from the country. A new merchandise collection has popped up in the UK pavilion of EPCOT’s World Showcase, and it has us ready to book a flight to London, y’all. Let’s check it out!
New stuff is coming to Disney World all the time!
Disney Springs
We’re talking about new attractions (TRON Lightcycle / Run opened earlier this year and The Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana opens later this year), new stores, and even NEW restaurants. At Disney Springs, we already knew that Summer House on the Lake (a new restaurant) was in the works, but recently another new dining spot was announced and we’re going to break down EVERYTHING we know about it so far.
If you are expecting the dining scene at Disney World to be the same as it was during your last trip, you’ll be in for some big surprises.
Brown Derby Lounge Spread
Not only have tons of Disney World restaurants been hit with price increases and menu changes, but special limited-time dining events have been announced, new restaurants may have opened since your last trip, and you might not realize that some spots are still CLOSED. So today we’re going through some restaurant news and updates to make sure you aren’t caught by surprise during your next vacation.
