food IS a theme park
If you love Taco Bell, we hope you’re in California.
Taco Bell
Sorry, we’ll back up. Taco Bell is a favorite fast-food restaurant of many of our readers, so we keep up with some of their news to share with you all. If you love Baja Blast — one of the chain’s most popular signature items — how would you feel if we told you Baja Blast GELATO now exists?
We’ve said it before — Magic Kingdom can be seriously lacking in the good eats department (compared to other Disney World parks, at least!)
Cinderella Castle
But, amidst the dismal display of delicious dishes in this park, one restaurant shines as a beacon of hope and all things good. It’s there when you’re looking for a snack, a full meal, a sweet treat, and even something to cool down with. We are, of course, talking about Casey’s Corner on Main Street, U.S.A. — and we’re taking you with us to eat everything (okay, mostly everything, but whatever.)
A NEW restaurant opened in Disneyland on September 7th, 2023 — Tiana’s Palace! This spot is themed to Disney’s The Princess and the Frog movie, with a menu that’s inspired by the flavors of New Orleans cuisine.

There’s a LOT to eat in Disney World, but could a change in dining habits alter what the future of food looks like in the parks?
Casey’s Corner full spread
We’ve seen all kinds of new things hit the parks lately — from new snacks to entirely new restaurants. And we’ve taken a look at whether some trends from Gen Z could decimate Disney profits or otherwise change dining at the Most Magical Place on Earth. But now we’re taking a look at another interesting way dining in Disney could be DIFFERENT in the future.
Welcome to the Walt Disney World restaurants! You won’t find anything “typical” around here. Not only do these restaurants boast unique themeing, many are known for creative menus, special diet options, and friendly servers.
San Angel Inn, EPCOT’s Mexico Pavilion
Expect the same kind of theming and fantasy you’ll find in the rest of the theme parks and resorts, along with some incredible (and some not so incredible – we’re just being honest) food. Ranging from pizza and burgers to five-star cuisine, Disney restaurants can fit any palate.
Okay, okay — we know there’s going to be a LOT of debate on this one but we’ve just got to talk about the Quick Service restaurants in EPCOT.
EPCOT
There are so many food options in this park and that can make it incredibly overwhelming to know which one is the “best” one to pick for you and your group. So today we’re going through what we think could be some of the most amazing options, but fair warning — even our own team was STRONGLY divided on this topic!
You know about McDonald’s, their famous fries, their popular Big Mac sandwich, and even the viral Grimace shake — but have you heard about CosMc’s? Soon, you will!
McDonald’s
We’ve shared all kinds of McDonald’s updates lately — from new menu items to special Happy Meal Toys — but this news might really surprise you!
Could Gen Z CHANGE Disney World restaurants forever?
Casey’s Corner
We already talked about one Generation Z dining trend that seems to be impacting the theme parks — they don’t drink as much alcohol as other generations and are more inclined to order a non-alcoholic drink over a cocktail. But there’s another way that this group might have a major impact on Disney World: they love fast food! [Read more…]
Disney World has some amazing restaurants and snacks — we would know! But sometimes you need something else.
Grand Floridian Resort
If you’re back at your Disney hotel after a long day in the parks, you might find yourself hungry. While most Disney resorts have quick-service restaurants or food courts, they tend close at 11 PM. So maybe it’s late at night, or maybe you’re just craving a Big Mac. Have no fear — did you know you could DoorDash McDonald’s to Your Disney World hotel? We’re here to tell you how.
There’s a holiday you’re probably not celebrating, but you totally should be!
French Fries
Nope, we’re not talking about Christmas or Halloween or even the 4th of July — we’re talking about a major FOOD holiday. Today is National French Fry Day, and there are some really delicious ways that you can celebrate with freebies!
