food IS a theme park
It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
It just got a little more expensive to dine here.
It’s when we stuff our faces full of holiday treats, visit the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, and buy a ton of Disney holiday merchandise. But while we’re having all this festive fun, we’re also keeping an eye on Disney World restaurant menus to see what’s changed.
Now that the holiday season has officially arrived at Disney World, we’ve been busy enjoying a lot of the holiday foods.

We ate our way around the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, as well as tried out many other holiday snacks around the resort. But while we were eating our way around Disney World, we were also keeping a close eye on restaurant menus to see what’s changed.
There are holiday decorations to see and treats to try all over Disney World, including in hotels!
Grand Floridian’s Christmas Tree is up!
You can get Gingerbread Popcorn in the Grand Floridian Hotel & Spa, stop by Disney’s Beach and Yacht Clubs for their Holiday Bon Bons, and now you can visit Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort for another holiday treat made with…eggnog!
Happy Holidays from Disney World!

Now that we’ve done the Thanksgiving thing at Disney World, we’re ushering in the holidays — we started with the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, where we checked out some amazing food, some awesome entertainment, and got to watch the first Candlelight Processional since 2019! But we’ve also visited many of Disney World’s hotels to check out the latest there!
Hello, DFB Friends!
Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort
We’ve had a busy weekend full of news coming out of Destination 23 — we’ve learned even MORE about the Star Wars Hotel, we finally confirmed that Festival of Fantasy and Fantasmic! will return to Disney World soon, and we got even more details about MagicBand+. In the meantime, we’ve been checking out the hotels at Disney World, to see what’s new.
Hello, DFB Friends!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa
What a week, right? The holidays have officially arrived and we’ve been to TWO after hours parties — one at Disney World AND one at Disneyland. And we’re eating a ton of holiday snacks and enjoying the holiday vibes at the parks and the hotels. Speaking of Disney World’s hotels… .
Hello, DFB Readers!
The holiday treats have arrived!
As you may have seen, the holidays have landed at Disney World, and we are up to our ears in holiday decorations, merchandise, and snacks! But while we’re checking out all the new holiday offerings, we’re also keeping an eye on menus at Disney World restaurants because that’s what we do!
Over the last few weeks, we’ve watched as holiday decorations, treats, and merchandise have taken over the Disney parks, not that we’re complaining!
Wow!
And while not all of the resorts get decorations as epic as the annual Gingerbread House at the Grand Floridian, they still deserve love! We just spotted some holiday decorations at another resort, and they’re beautiful! [Read more…]
October was QUITE the month at Disney World. So much happened!

In the past month alone, THREE new restaurants opened (Steakhouse 71, Space 220, and La Crêperie de Paris), the 50th anniversary snacks arrived, AND we were still seeing some Halloween snacks getting introduced. So we’ve got quite a few menu updates to share with you from October.
One of the most wonderful things about going to Disney World is the food — yeah, we’re biased, but that’s what we do!
Time to Dig in!
And when folks in the know think food in Disney World, chances are their thoughts drift to EPCOT. It’s basically a magical, wonderful place for food from around the WORLD — you can have lunch in Italy, a drink in Mexico, a snack in France, and dinner in Germany! But did you know that you can eat around the world at other parts of Disney World without ever stepping foot into EPCOT?
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
