food IS a theme park
Who’s in the mood for some COFFEE?!
Starbucks
We certainly are! And when we get a caffeine craving, one of our favorite places to head is the Starbucks in Disney Springs. They’ve often got seasonal sips, and today, we’re trying 3 NEW ones.
What better way to kick off a day at Disney than with COFFEE?!
Grabbing some coffee to kick off our day in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
We love trying all the different specialty sips around Disney World — and that includes when we need our caffeine fix! We’ve sampled some truly unique coffees on property, so when we saw an interesting new flavor at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we just HAD to try it.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all our DFB Readers!
Starbucks in Disney Springs Marketplace
And with it being St. Patrick’s Day and all, we’ve been busy running all over Disney World trying out all the amazing green treats we can find, including a green mimosa, a St. Patrick’s Day key lime pie, and a chocolate and minty cookie! And now we’ve got another St. Paddy’s day treat we want to share with you!
It warms our heart to see Olaf — especially when he pops up on one of our snacks!
School Bread
We were THRILLED when School Bread made its triumphant return to EPCOT — featuring an adorable white chocolate Olaf topper! But we know that not everyone can make it to the Disney parks to get their Olaf fix. So, here’s a hack you can use to sprinkle some magic flurries on your morning drink order!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! No, not Christmas. It’s Shark Week!

The Starbucks in the Disney Springs Marketplace is known for mixing up fanciful drinks with fun themes. We loved the Welcome Back frappucino and the Campfire Cold Brew helped us kick off summer! Well, they’re BACK with a new drink inspired by the popular yearly television event, Shark Week. [Read more…]
The Rise of Skywalker may have ended the Skywalker Saga, but we don’t have to say goodbye to our old friend just yet.
Chewy Drinks the Chewbacca Frapp. Do You?
While you can still meet Chewbacca in the Disney Parks, there’s also a way you can take your favorite Wookiee home with you as a new SECRET MENU ITEM!
Whether you’re a Star Wars fan or just someone who loves adorable characters, Baby Yoda has stolen our hearts on The Mandalorian.

And, while there’s been plenty of merchandise to celebrate The Child, there’s a new Baby Yoda drink that you can get mixed up in Disney OR back home! (And, trust us, it doesn’t taste like frogs!)
In case you didn’t know, it’s Shark Week!
Starbucks in Disney Springs
Sharks may have a heightened sense of smell, but like to think we can sniff out a new drink like it’s nobody’s business. The Shark Attack Frappuccino has taken a dive into Starbucks just in time for Shark Week!
We’re back with another What’s New at Disney Springs, everybody! We have lots of drinks, clothing, and even a new store opening to share with ya, so let’s get started!

Can you believe we are only five days out from the release of The Lion King?!
The Lion King Poster at AMC
AMC is now featuring the movie poster on its display wall so visitors can stop by and take a photo. We’re getting major “remember who you are” vibes from this gorgeous backdrop of Mufasa and Simba in front of the African sun. [Read more…]
There has been a LOT of hype over the latest specialty beverages to arrive to Starbucks.
And while these new sips are being served at Starbucks locations all over Disney property in spots like Epcot’s Fountain View, Magic Kingdom’s Main Street Bakery, Trolley Car Cafe at Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom’s Creature Comforts, they’re likely gracing the menu at your local Starbucks, too (making this a two-fer review for you!).
We’re talking about the Smoked Butterscotch Latte and Smoked Butterscotch Frappuccino! And though they’re available nationwide, many folks are making the comparison to a specific specialty drink at a certain theme park also located in Central Florida: BUTTERBEER™.
Described as “creamy-sweet with kettle cooked butterscotch,” it sure sounds enticing enough.

So I grabbed both the hot latte and the frappuccino versions so I could decide for myself how they really compare to a glass of Butterbeer™. If you’ve never had one, Butterbeer comes in a few different versions like cold or frozen, and has a very sweet and distinct butterscotch flavor throughout its cream soda base. The whole thing is topped off with foam.
