food IS a theme park
A LOT is changing in Disney World ALL the time, but this year has seen some HUGE changes.
Caramel Chocolate Fizz
For starters, a brand new restaurant, Roundup Rodeo BBQ, opened in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Even bigger than that, though, Disney World finally announced the return of the Disney Dining Plan in 2024. However, every week, Disney World restaurants update their menus, and we do our best to keep track of all of those changes — so here’s what happened this week.
There’s a new treat coming soon to Magic Kingdom, but you probably WON’T want to eat it.
Cinderella Castle
Disney has announced a bunch of new eats and treats coming to the parks to celebrate the summer season and Pride Month, so we’ve got a long list of snacks that we can’t wait to try soon. Now, we have to add another item to that list, but we can already tell that it’ll be a tough review to tackle. [Read more…]
Are you someone who needs that morning cup of coffee to get going in Disney World?
Joffrey’s in Magic Kingdom
Or maybe you need that afternoon java pick-me-up to get you through until park close? There are PLENTY of places to get coffee in Magic Kingdom, like Main Street Bakery (a Starbucks location), which almost ALWAYS has long lines. But if it’s Joffrey’s coffee you’re after, you can head to Tomorrowland to visit the Joffrey’s Revive stand. HOWEVER, there is often a long line there, too — so what can you do?
Disney World restaurants have a little something for everyone.
Sonny Eclipse at Cosmic Ray’s
With dozens (honestly more like hundreds) of spots spread across the theme parks, resorts, and Disney Springs, you can find cuisine for most tastes and cultures…AND in a variety of price ranges. Whether you’re looking to try something exotic or stick to your homestyle favorites, Disney probably has something perfect for you. And today, we’re sharing our picks for the restaurants that your kiddo will like…even if they eat nothing but McDonald’s!
If we’re being brutally honest, there are times when you CANNOT TRUST Disney World.
Spicy sauce
One of those times is when a Disney World menu tells you that the food is “spicy.” We’ve been eating at Disney restaurants for long enough to know that “spicy” can mean something VERY different depending on which place you’re dining at. A spicy chicken sandwich in Magic Kingdom might have absolutely no spice to it at all. But head over to City Works in Disney Springs and take a chance on that hot chicken wrap and you just might be guzzling milk for days. The range is absolutely wild, so we’re here to help you sort out which spicy chicken is really SPICY and which is just…not. Here’s our official DFB ranking of spicy chicken in Disney World from “That’s NOTHING” to 🔥🔥🔥. [Read more…]
Hacking a Cheesy Bacon Donut at Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew. Ordering secret Pork Satay Skewers at Jungle Navigation Co., Ltd. Skipper Canteen. When it comes to Disney food, we’ve done it all.
Magic Kingdom
We’re in the parks every day looking for all the best food tips and secrets so that we can share them with you. Did you know there’s a sauce hiding in Magic Kingdom that’s dedicated to one of the park’s most eccentric characters? Well, you’re about to!
Well, it’s another week in Disney World, which means a LOT of change. Now that we’re done eating our share of Easter treats, we’re gearing up for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival (which doesn’t start for a few months, but WE ARE READY), and more. But we’re also keeping an eye on changes at Disney World restaurants.
Pizza from PizzeRizzo in Hollywood Studios
Things are ALWAYS changing here; but this week, amongst the small changes, there were four REALLY big updates. Don’t worry — we’ll tell you about all 15 restaurants that had updates. But I’ll point out the biggies as well with this very sophisticated system LOL: BIG DEAL ALERT!
You know it, I know it, EVERYONE knows it — it can get pretty hot sometimes in Disney World.
Cosmic Ray’s Starlight
Cafe
That’s when it’s time to down a nice frozen drink, like a refreshing Star Wars-themed cold brew, a nice Dole Whip Float, or a Frozen Viking Coffee. We just recently headed on over to Magic Kingdom to review a frozen drink, but this one is Monsters, Inc.-themed.

Magic Kingdom

Disney World — it can be full of joy, happiness, and fun. But it can also be full of stress and anxiety.
The Grey Stuff on a Chocolate Tart
If you are a naturally anxious person or find certain things (like crowded areas or loud spaces) to be particularly anxiety-inducing, there are some extra steps you’ll want to take in Disney World, like potentially avoiding certain rides, shows, or dining locations. We’ve shared a look at Disney World changes that cause you anxiety and places to escape in Magic Kingdom when your anxiety is through the roof, but now we’re taking a deep dive into the restaurants you’ll want to AVOID if you have anxiety.
