food IS a theme park
HOLD THE PHONE! We’ve made the discovery of all discoveries over on the planet of Batuu in Disneyland!
Original Spork at Docking Bay 7
One of the most charming and unique initial elements of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge wasn’t the rides or the land itself — it was the uniquely themed sporks used in Docking Bay 7. They didn’t last long before Disney removed them BUT, guess what? They’re BACK.
Rise of the Resistance has officially opened on both Disney coasts! And, the citizens of Batuu are celebrating in a HUGE way with three new treats in Disneyland!

And, although there’s something a lil spicy and a lil savory to try, we’re grabbing something SWEET while we give you all the details on the ride (and how the boarding passes are all gone).
Docking Bay 7 has seen a bunch of menu changes in the past few weeks.

From the addition of a plant-based “meat” marinara for kids to the removal of the Star Wars-ified names on the menus, it’s pretty difficult to keep up with all of the menu modifications at the popular Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge quick service. Well, fans of the immersive names can celebrate because they’re back… sort of.
As we reported to you earlier, Disney World has removed several of the Star Wars-themed names from its lunch and dinner items at Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo.

And while the names on Docking Bay 7’s breakfast menu were also altered, the items still have Star Wars-themed titles unlike their lunch and dinner counterparts — weird, right?
We also noticed some changes to the price and ingredients listed for Docking Bay 7’s Tuggs’ Overnight Oats — formerly known as Rising Moons Overnight Oats! So of course, we had to snag them to see what they now look like, and more importantly, taste like!
Plant-based options are launching all over the Disney parks, and now there’s a kids’ option on Batuu in Disney World!

Disney World is diving headfirst into the world of plant-based cuisine and that means a lot more options for vegetarian and vegan guests. Earlier this month we reported on the brand new plant-based logo and plant-based Mickey Waffles and now Star Wars: Galaxy Edge has joined in on the initiative!
Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo in Disney World has just made some drastic changes to its lunch and dinner menus!

And while the offerings at this counter-service Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge restaurant haven’t changed very much, (more on this in a sec!), how you order your Fried Endorian Tip-Yip has!
Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened to guests on May 31, and over the next few days, some big changes are coming to Planet Batuu in the universe of reservations and dining!

First, reservations. [Read more…]
Whenever a new land opens at Walt Disney World, the hype is always extremely real. But we all know that like anything else, that excitement can flicker out pretty quickly (AKA any YA novel fandom).

The question is: how do you test if a land is a hit in Disney after it opens? It’s not only its initial popularity that keeps it high on the list but the continual visits from guests, how long the wait times are, and even what’s inside the land itself (still not over the Viewmaster slides in Toy Story Land tbh). And the differences between Pandora’s opening in 2017 and Galaxy’s Edge’s opening this year seem to show — at least anecdotally — that the two don’t stack up very similarly in terms of overall popularity.
In case you haven’t heard, there are a LOT of changes coming to both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort.

While many changes come in the form of new attractions (like the highly-anticipated TRON Lightcycle Run and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind), there are also a whole bunch of NEW restaurants coming soon, like Space 220 and Woody’s Roundup Barbecue to the parks and resorts! Let’s explore all the new and soon to be new options you need to know about.
My Disney friends, we regret to inform you that the sporks are no longer available at Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

They have officially been replaced by regular serving utensils. 🙁 A shock to us all, I know. ::sarcasm::
