food IS a theme park
It’s been a HUGE week for food in Disney World.
The Starbucks fall menu is here!
First, we have to talk about ALL THE NEW FALL Starbucks drinks that arrived this week (and we’ll get to that). We also visited Casey’s Corner, one of our fave counter service restaurants, and ate EVERYTHING there. We also ate a hotdog with a boozy shake (#sorrynotsorry). In the meantime, though, Disney World restaurant menus were changing, so let’s see what’s been updated!
Eating at Disney World can be delicious and…overwhelming!Â
Swan and Dolphin
There are table service restaurants, quick service restaurants, lounges, snack kiosks, food trucks, and more within the parks, the resorts, and Disney Springs. Where do you go? What’s worth your cash? Well, we’ve eaten at basically every single Disney World restaurant and have shared tons of reviews with you over the years to make that dining journey easier. But today we’re taking a deep dive into ALL of the restaurants at one popular hotel in particular — Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resort!
You might never have heard of one of our favorite restaurants in Disney World!
Il Mulino
The in-park and Disney Springs restaurants tend to get a lot of love, then you have the best of the Disney World Resort hotel restaurants. But you might be overlooking some amazing spots that AREN’T Disney-owned — like Il Mulino New York Trattoria at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotels.
Now that the holiday season has officially arrived at Disney World, we’ve been busy enjoying a lot of the holiday foods.

We ate our way around the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, as well as tried out many other holiday snacks around the resort. But while we were eating our way around Disney World, we were also keeping a close eye on restaurant menus to see what’s changed.
Happy holidays!
Holiday snacks have arrived!
Sure, we just said goodbye to Halloween, but the holiday season has officially started at Disney World — the decorations are up, the merchandise is out, and the first Disney Very Merriest After Hours party starts soon! And Disney World restaurants are still busy changing up their menus, although more often than not, those changes include price increases.
The Swan and Dolphin Food and Wine Classic kicks off this Friday in Disney World.
Brandade Black Pepper Agnolotti
This festival has more than 20 food stations and over 100 drink options to choose from. You can get tickets for $165 per person, which include unlimited tastings of all the delicious snacks, treats, and drinks. We’ve already seen a first-look at this event and found some tips for making the most of your time there, but what are the can’t-miss dishes and drinks at the Food and Wine Classic? We’ve got a list of some of our favorites here.
If you’re headed to Disney World during the summer and fall season, you might be making plans to visit the very popular EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival.
Food and Wine Classic 2018
We positively love this EPCOT fest, but did you know that it’s not the ONLY Food and Wine festival going on in Disney World this fall? And guess what? The other one is within walking distance from EPCOT!
One of the most wonderful things about going to Disney World is the food — yeah, we’re biased, but that’s what we do!
Time to Dig in!
And when folks in the know think food in Disney World, chances are their thoughts drift to EPCOT. It’s basically a magical, wonderful place for food from around the WORLD — you can have lunch in Italy, a drink in Mexico, a snack in France, and dinner in Germany! But did you know that you can eat around the world at other parts of Disney World without ever stepping foot into EPCOT?
Disney World food fans know that fall is a great time to visit the parks. After all, it’s when you’ll be able to dine on a seemingly endless amount of selections from the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival.

Today, we’re here to tell you that there’s ANOTHER Food and Wine fest — and better yet, it’s within walking distance of EPCOT!
