food IS a theme park
It has been a WHIRLWIND day for us at Magic Kingdom! From scoring a Madame Leota sipper to trying The Grey Stuff Cupcake (IT’S DELICIOUS! Sorry, we had to.) at Gaston’s Tavern, we have been living our best lives.
The Grey Stuff Cupcake
So, we thought to ourselves, we need to share all of this excitement with YOU! We’ve been taking lots of videos from the parks today and sharing them over on Twitter, and here are our favorites from our day in Magic Kingdom!
Did you hear him shout it from the rooftops? Gaston is (very) proud to let you know that his Tavern has reopened to guests in Magic Kingdom!
Gaston’s Tavern
As of today, Magic Kingdom guests can once again stop by Gaston’s Tavern in Fantasyland to grab a LeFou’s Brew, enjoy a Warm Cinnamon Roll, and admire the statue of Gaston just outside the counter service spot placed there in tribute by… Gaston himself. 😉
In addition to the classic snacks mentioned above, guests at the Tavern will also find a new addition to the menu: The Grey Stuff Cupcake (also referred to as The Master’s Cupcake). [Read more…]
No one’s slick as Gaston, no one rides horses like Gaston, no one reopens a restaurant like Gaston!

That’s right! A little while ago we spotted some signs that seemed to suggest Gaston’s Tavern in Magic Kingdom would be reopening soon. Then, we got some official confirmation that it would be opening on Friday, September 4th. So, of course, we made our way over there today to check it out!
If there is one thing we’ve been craving for breakfast, it’s one of the amazing cinnamon rolls from Gaston’s Tavern in Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. Okay, so maybe we don’t just crave it for breakfast…

Unfortunately, our favorite place to get this yummy snack has been closed. Until today! That’s right: Gaston’s Tavern opened this morning, and one of our readers was first in line to get the first cinnamon roll of the day!
If you’ve been with us for a while, you probably know we love cupcakes!

When we’re in Disney World, we tend to keep our eye on the prize — and by prize, we mean delicious cupcakes covered in a mound of icing! Today, we learned that Gaston’s Tavern will be reopening this Friday, and that instantly had us dreaming about Cinnamon Rolls…but it looks like that’s not the ONLY exciting treat in our future. Is that a new cupcake on the menu?!
Disney World has been open for almost two months now, but there are still a LOT of closed restaurants.

Today, we got some super exciting news that several iconic Disney World restaurants will be reopening. Soon, we’ll be returning to Cinderella’s Royal Table in Magic Kingdom and Hollywood & Vine in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. But guess what — Disney also just announced the reopening dates for TWO fan-favorite quick service spots. Let’s take a look!
We’ve seen lots of spots reopening around Walt Disney World lately.

But others are still closed. We’ve even seen some spots open, close, and then reopen. But we’re particularly surprised that three fan-favorite restaurants have not yet reopened!
If you’ve been following along, you know that the reopening of Walt Disney World Resort is taking place in phases. And even though all four Walt Disney World theme parks started to welcome guests again in July, that does not mean that every attraction, experience, eatery, and store in the parks reopened immediately.

In fact, we have a whole list of restaurants that we put together so you can know which ones are currently open in the parks and which ones remain closed. But it seems as though we might be able to move one favorite counter service spot in Magic Kingdom from “Closed” to “Open” on that list soon… [Read more…]
Recently, we shared with you over 50 Disney World upgrades that cost less than $50 and that got us thinking…
Disney World
…what about some upgrades you can find for even CHEAPER?
Oh, Disney World — you give us SO MANY delicious snacks. There are Dole Whips, Mickey Pretzels, Corn Dog Nuggets, and more. How could we possibly choose a favorite? (Oh wait…I guess we already did!)
We love you, Dole Whip
But if we could only pick ONE land in the Magic Kingdom, which would reign supreme? We’re ranking them ALL right here!
