Seating at the Cake Bake Shop in Indianapolis
There are all kinds of bars in Disney World already — you can visit Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto for an exciting island-themed experience, head over to Wine Bar George to check out a wine list curated by Master Sommelier George Miliotes, or even visit the AbracadaBar for an evening filled with magic tricks and artistic cocktails. But a NEW restaurant opening this year is going to bring the first champagne bar to Disney’s BoardWalk, and we’re more than a little excited to check it out. [Read more…]
It’s something we tell you all the time … rope dropping is usually worth it!
Rope drop at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
When you can beat at least SOME of the crowds to the parks for the day, it allows you to take advantage of shorter wait times and knock out some of those popular attractions!
Rated-R films, alcohol, and gambling aren’t normally the first things people think of when they hear the word “Disney.”
Magic Kingdom
The brand is more likely to conjure up images of Mickey Mouse, animated movies, “it’s a small world,” and churros. But the world we live in now is changing all the time, and much of Disney’s past success has come from the company’s ability to adapt and change with it. You don’t get a 100-year anniversary as a company if you’re not flexible and willing to take a few risks. Let’s dive into the details of how Disney is branching out and becoming so much more than a family brand. [Read more…]

Steakhouse 71 just opened at Disney’s Contemporary Resort just in time for Disney World’s 50th anniversary!
Inside Steakhouse 71
The restaurant replaced The Wave that used to be in the hotel’s lobby, and the 71 refers to the opening year of Disney World (and the Contemporary). If you’ve been keeping up with us, you know that we’ve really enjoyed the food at this new spot — we’ve tried breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and had positive experiences overall. But, there’s one more experience to be had at the restaurant — eating in the lounge! So, come along with us as we check out if the lounge is up to par with the rest of Steakhouse 71.
A popular entertainment spot in Disney World is reopening soon!
Jellyrolls
Located at Disney’s BoardWalk, Jellyrolls is a dueling piano bar famous for its drink specials, fun atmosphere, and, of course, awesome entertainment! Even when Disney World reopened after the closures in 2020, Jellyrolls still remained closed. In June 2020, Jellyrolls announced that they would be reopening on October 1st, 2020. But the closure was later extended indefinitely. Now, over a year later, a new reopening date for the dueling piano bar has been announced!
Greetings from Disney’s Old Key West Resort! This week we stopped by to check out the lunch options at The Gurgling Suitcase! The Gurgling Suitcase is a relaxing respite in Disney World, and they didn’t always serve food (though you could order from Olivia’s). But for a few years now they have their very own menu!
The Gurgling Suitcase
It’s already super hot in Florida so we were excited to swing by for a quick bite and cold drink! By the way, did you know the Gurgling Suitcase got its name from people trying to smuggle alcohol from Cuba into Key West in their luggage? Inspectors would shake the suitcases to see if the “gurgled” — hence the name The Gurgling Suitcase. Always so clever, Disney.
