food IS a theme park
Another month has come and gone, which means it’s time to wrap up our monthly picks for the best and worst things we tried in Disney World in May!
EPCOT
This month includes seasonal items as well as items you can still find in the parks and resorts — let’s drive right in and see what made it to the top (and bottom) of our list!
It’s no secret that we LOVE food at Disney World’s theme parks.
Spice Trade Candy Bar at Sanaa – YUM.
And we will never turn down a Dole Whip, Corn Dog Nuggets, or anything served with PLASTIC CHEESE (yes, it’s our weakness and we are not ashamed). But did you know some of the BEST meals and snacks are actually found OUTSIDE of the parks?
It’s almost Mother’s Day… HOORAY for MOM!!
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
Disney is celebrating big with TONS of limited-edition treats, fun Brunch options, and even a Magic Shot with Mrs. Incredible (aka Elastigirl)! We’ve been trying all of the Mother’s Day treats around the Disney World parks and resorts (seriously… ALL of them), and today we’re also checking out a cupcake at Disney’s Contemporary Resort!
NOTE: As of this writing, several of the dining locations listed are currently unavailable and have yet to reopen. You can check out our list of the restaurants and other dining locations currently opened and closed in Disney World here. As always, we encourage you to follow along with our newsletter as well as the blog for all the latest Disney World dining news!
When it comes to dining at Disney World, there are countless options to choose from. But if we were to ask you to name your FAVORITE hotel in terms of restaurants, we think most of our readers would be quick to name their top pick.
Grand Floridian
We recently polled our readers and followers on Instagram to find out which Disney World Resort hotel YOU thought had the best dining. Here are your top picks!
We’ve been taking you on a different kind of Walt Disney World Resort hotel tour recently… .
Disney’s Pop Century Resort
Unlike our recent photo and video tour all around Disney’s Pop Century Resort, we’ve been going on a little fashion tour, as Cast Member costumes have been receiving makeovers at several Resort hotels! ICYMI, we thought we’d bring you a roundup of all the latest looks to see the fun Disney designs popping up all over! [Read more…]
Monorail fans: you may want to sit down for this one.
Contempo Cafe
Obviously, the delicious food and unique atmosphere of a Disney restaurant contribute to its theming. But so do the Cast Members! Their costumes play a huge part in the experience — and today, we noticed that some of those costumes had gotten a makeover.
It’s hard to go wrong with a combination like wine and chocolate.
Grand Floridian
For New Year’s, Disney World offered a special celebration package that included sparkling wine and chocolate at a few resort restaurants. It looks like this package will continue in 2021, because a Valentine’s Day version has just popped up on select menus!
We’re taking a cruise around the monorail loop!
Polynesian Lobby
We took a stop into the monorail resorts today to see if there’s anything new to update ya on, Here’s all the latest news in food, construction, and merchandise at Disney’s Contemporary Resort and Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort!
There’s no shortage of amazing eats at Disney World and just about everyone has some sort of Disney food bucket list. We even created the DFB’s Disney food bucket list with our #OnTheList series a couple of years ago!
Crooning Flower Dole Whip
And while you may be familiar with those classic snacks (hello Mickey Premium Bars), there could be quite a few Disney treats that you may have TOTALLY forgotten about! So, we’re sharing our list of the 10 Disney World eats that you might have forgotten to add to your Disney food bucket list! [Read more…]
If you’re in Disney World this week, there’s so much holiday fun to experience!
Hey Santa!
You can head on over to EPCOT for the Festival of the Holidays, hang out in Magic Kingdom to watch the festive cavalcades (they have them in all four parks, but Magic Kingdom’s are especially fun), or you can stroll through Disney Springs to check out the Christmas Tree Stroll and the delicious snacks. And, if you’re looking for a way to have a traditional Christmas dinner on a budget, we’ve got you covered with an exclusive meal at Disney’s Contemporary Resort!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
