food IS a theme park
You’ll find lots of shopping and dining locations around Disney Springs.
Disney Springs
If you need a day of strolling around shopping and eating on your Disney World vacation, Disney Springs is the place to do it. There’s something for everyone. Disney Springs is also frequently changing and upgrading. We’ve seen several shops and restaurants getting refurbishments or closing to make room for new ones to come in. Now, a popular sweets shop will be temporarily closed for some remodeling.
We are HUGE fans of Disney food here at Disney Food Blog, so we just knew we had to share this Disney Cruise Line food news with you!

Disney adds new souvenirs to their park shops all the time.
Emporium at Magic Kingdom has TONS of souvenirs!
We’ll be the first to say that most of the new merchandise is ADORABLE. We have a hard time saying no to all the cute new souvenirs that get added to the shops. New Spirit Jerseys, Loungeflys, pins, house decor, and so much more get added regularly. However, some items really have us scratching our heads and questioning everything.
One of the most important things you’ll pack for Disney World — if not THE most important thing you’ll pack — is comfortable shoes! Disney’s theme parks are big, which means you’ll be walking a LOT during your vacation. We’re talking tens of thousands of steps. You don’t want to get a blister and be in pain or unable to do everything during your trip!
