food IS a theme park
Who doesn’t love the perks of being a Disney World Annual Passholder?
Annual Pass
You know what we’re talking about — perks like discounts on merch, hotels, free parking, and more. Sometimes there are even exclusive perks, too! In case you haven’t heard, there’s an exclusive lounge that’s coming to Disney World, and we’ve got to talk about it!
If you’ve been a DFB reader for any significant length of time, you know just how strong our opinions on Disney World pizza are.
Pizza at Disney World is hit or miss!
And if you’re new around here — just know that not all Disney World pizza is created equally. Some pizza is worth singing about from the mountaintops, while other slices belong in the bottom of the trash. All those years of trash-talking must have finally caught up with us because we’ve officially been sent a cease-and-desist order.
Have you ever wanted to experience the world of Bluey in real life?

Well, that opportunity is a lot closer than you may think. There is work happening on a brand new, immersive Bluey experience as we speak. So, if you’re a fan of this adorable family of blue heelers, start packing your bags! At the end of 2023, we caught wind of this experience and its opening timeline. However, since then, we have learned even more about what we should be expecting, so we need to fill you in on the details! [Read more…]
Here at the Disney Food Blog, we take Disney food SERIOUSLY, and no matter how good we find a restaurant to be, we will always revisit to see if the quality holds. So come with us as we do just that at a Disneyland dining staple!
Main Street, U.S.A. at Disneyland
Disneyland Park is home to several popular attractions and, of course, some delicious restaurants. One of those restaurants is Plaza Inn! Located on Main Street, U.S.A., this restaurant opened with the park in 1955 (it was then called the Red Wagon Inn) and is still the only place in Disneyland Park to experience character dining. We recently visited our favorite Disneyland counter service location to see if it still holds up in 2024, and we have a lot to report!
There’s a NEW Disney Loungefly backpack online now, but we’re not expecting it to stick around for long!
Loungefly Wall
Disney-themed Loungefly bags are super popular souvenirs — We see them everywhere in the parks! There are bags themed to different rides, characters, and movies. Now, a new bag is available at Disney’s online store, and we think it’s going to sell out FAST, so make sure you get yours ASAP!
The latest round of CLUES about the upcoming V.I.Passholder Days at Disney World seems to have ignited CHAOS on the internet!

We’re getting excited to experience Disney World’s V.I.Passholder Days soon, and while we already know some of what to anticipate (including a new AP-exclusive lounge and some new discounts), there’s still a lot left to be deciphered. Recently, Disney teased that a brand-new Annual Passholder magnet may be coming as part of this exclusive event, and now it seems they’re ready to give us another HINT at what (or who) will be waiting for us!

There’s a hot debate over which bag is best to bring to Disney World — and for the first time in a while, a new contender has emerged.
Cinderella Castle
Loungefly bags used to be everywhere you looked in the parks, and while you’ll still find PLENTY of Loungefly bags and ears, Lug bags are starting to proliferate around Disney World. We’re certainly not complaining, and now there’s another new Lug collection that’s caught our eye!
One of Disney World’s most popular hotel pools is going to be CLOSED for longer than we originally thought.

Deciding on the right Disney World hotel to call home during your visit can be tricky, especially if you know one of your favorite hotel features is closed for refurbishment. If you were hoping to dip your toes into the sand and take a glide along the lazy river at one of Disney World’s most sought-after hotel pools, you’ll want to take notice of this upcoming closure and recent extension! [Read more…]
One of the first things we tell folks before they visit Disney World for the first time is to get familiar with the My Disney Experience app.
Using the My Disney Experience app
That’s because the My Disney Experience app is literally your key to Disney World (and the key to your Disney World hotel room). You’ll use the app for everything from mobile ordering food to getting into the parks to buying Genie+. But there’s one thing you MUST do BEFORE you ever step foot on Disney World property in the app.Â
When it comes to unwinding after a long day, we love cozying up on the couch and popping something from Disney+ on the TV.

Now that the service has been combined with Hulu (for those who are subscribed to both streaming platforms!) there are plenty of things to watch. New titles are being added all the time — and one is coming soon that we’re pretty darn excited about!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
