Why is Disney World Opening Two Lounges…and No Restaurants…in 2025?

By 1 Comment

There’s a lot coming to Disney World in 2025!

Magic Kingdom

We’ve got construction beginning on the Villains land and Cars-themed land coming to Magic Kingdom, construction on a Monsters Inc. land beginning in Hollywood Studios, an updated Test Track ride with a new theme coming to EPCOT, and construction begins to turn DinoLand U.S.A. into Tropical Americas. And that’s not even all of it! There is an interesting trend though that we’re noticing with some of these announcements — why have no restaurants been announced but two new lounges are on their way?

I’ve Eaten at Over 150 Disney World Restaurants — Here Are My Spiciest Takes

By 2 Comments

As a reporter here at DFB, I’ve spent a LOT of time in Disney World restaurants.

EPCOT

Not only do I grab lunch at quick service restaurants frequently when I’m in the parks, but I’ve also done full reviews of dozens of quick service restaurants, snack stands, and table service restaurants for my job. In fact, by my tally, I’ve eaten at over 150 Disney World restaurants to date. And with all those meals in Disney World, I’ve developed some pretty strong opinions!

No Offense, Kids. But Disney Needs to Make A Rule Change at 3 Popular Restaurants

By 29 Comments

Dining in Disney World can be harder than you may realize!

Disney’s BoardWalk

Not only are there countless restaurants inside Disney World’s four parks, but there are MORE restaurants located at each hotel on property, as well as in Disney’s BoardWalk area and Disney Springs. So how do you decide where to go? Well, that’s what we’re here for! We’ve eaten at every Disney World restaurant and can give you the scoop on what’s worth your time and money, and what you may want to skip. It’s important to remember though that while Disney World is a family park, there are certain areas that kids aren’t allowed (namely, bars), and while we love going to Disney World with our families, we do think there should be an age minimum placed at these restaurants at certain times of day.

Do NOT Make This EXPENSIVE Disney World Restaurant Mistake

By Leave a Comment

Dining in Disney World can be tricky. There are so many restaurants to choose from with some quick service locations being a little too bland for your tastebuds, but sometimes table service dining prices can add more to your trip than you were originally budgeting for.

Liberty Tree Tavern

But if you do research before your trip and decide to book a dining reservation at a table-service restaurant, that’s fantastic! However, if you’re on your vacation and you decide against it for whatever reason such as deciding that you don’t want to spend 1-2 hours sitting down if you have other priorities or realizing you’re tighter on your budget than you thought, there’s a BIG mistake you could make when you go to cancel your reservation that could cost you more than you were expecting.

Is This Hotel Restaurant Permanently Closed in Disney World?

By 5 Comments

Disney World is home to tons of different restaurants. Some of them we love, some of them we strongly dislike, and others…well some others we haven’t been able to experience in years.

Voyage of the Little Mermaid

Since the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic park closures, there have been some Disney World experiences that have yet to return, such as Restaurant Marrakesh in EPCOT and Voyage of the Little Mermaid (which is going to house a new show later this year). And there’s one of our favorites we’re really starting to get worried about, if we’re being honest. So Disney, are you ever bringing the Garden View Tea Room back?

PLEASE Don’t Make This Disastrous Disney World Restaurant Mistake

By 2 Comments

We say it all the time, and we won’t stop because it’s SO true — choosing where to eat in Disney World is BEYOND hard.

Cinderella’s Royal Table

First, you’ve gotta figure out what your budget for the trip is, and how much of it is allocated to dining, and THEN you need to decide what table service restaurants to book (up to 60 days before your trip begins) and what meals you’ll stop at quick service restaurants for. On the Disney World website and My Disney Experience App, you’ll find that each restaurant has a number of dollar signs that can help you get a quick picture of how much it costs. However, it’s easy to make a mistake at a select few of these restaurants, and we’re BEGGING you not to fall victim to it!

Annual Passholders can often find serious savings in the form of discounts at dining spots around Disney Springs, and one of our favorites has doubled theirs yet again!

There’s a deserted restaurant in the middle of Magic Kingdom, and we’re starting to get worried!

Magic Kingdom

There can’t be better real estate for a restaurant than right smack-dab in the middle of Magic Kingdom, so WHY hasn’t Disney reopened this quick service spot yet? Right now, it’s just taking up a whole lot of space. Let’s take a look at what the restaurant is, what it’s been, and what we think it SHOULD be! [Read more…]
