food IS a theme park
All of us on the DFB team LOVE the Halloween season at Disney World.
Pumpkins have taken over Main Street U.S.A.!
Everything is so spooky and fun, and there are adorable orange pumpkins everywhere on Main Street, U.S.A. But another reason we love this season is all the super cool limited-time snacks you can get while you’re visiting. This time, however, we decided to try something different and MAKE our own Halloween snack at Disney World. The best part? You can make it, too!
Sometimes you go on vacation, ready to try new foods of all sorts, and when it’s all said and done you’re just searching for the one thing that will feel just like home.
Soooo creamy!
While Disney World is known for some of its extravagant treats and surprising food trends, a lot of times just the simplest of desserts is what our tummies end up in search of. Luckily for you, opportunity knocked and we were ready to step through the door of a much a place where time slows down for a bit (and the temperature is a few degrees cooler). [Read more…]
Remain calm, but a treat we have been waiting for since the Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Sandwich Disney Eats collection debuted has finally arrived! This Disney Eats collection debuted in May and featured a Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Sandwich that couldn’t even be found in the parks.
Main Street, USA
However, Disney World has come to the rescue (kind of) and released a Mickey Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwich that looks strikingly similar to the treat featured in the Disney Eats collection. The treat is a mouthful of words, and we are slightly confused as it is NOT an ice cream sandwich. But when we saw that we could get our hands on a similar treat, we had to try it!
Here at the Disney Food Blog, we take Disney food SERIOUSLY, and no matter how good we find a restaurant to be, we will always revisit to see if the quality holds. So come with us as we do just that at a Disneyland dining staple!
Main Street, U.S.A. at Disneyland
Disneyland Park is home to several popular attractions and, of course, some delicious restaurants. One of those restaurants is Plaza Inn! Located on Main Street, U.S.A., this restaurant opened with the park in 1955 (it was then called the Red Wagon Inn) and is still the only place in Disneyland Park to experience character dining. We recently visited our favorite Disneyland counter service location to see if it still holds up in 2024, and we have a lot to report!
THIS IS NOT A DRILL! A hearty, yet sweet dessert has made its way to Disney World!
Main Street U.S.A.
If you find yourself at Magic Kingdom any time soon, we think you should make it a priority to drop by Main Street, U.S.A. (not that you’ll have much of a choice since it’s right at the entrance to the park 😂). We say this because if you’re a fan of desserts, a new one just arrived, and we have all the details!
The holiday season is guaranteed to bring us some of our favorite Disney treats of the year.
Holiday season at Disneyland
If you find yourself at Disneyland in Anaheim during the holiday season, you are certainly in for a good time. With some great treats available and festive park changes everywhere you look, joy and good food can be found around every corner. Speaking of good food, we recently found some NEW SEASONAL ITEMS on Main Street, U.S.A. that we HAVE to tell you about!
There’s a NEW Disney merchandise collection online now that we think you’re going to LOVE.
The Dapper Dans are ICONIC
One of the first sights you see in Magic Kingdom is Main Street, U.S.A. This street, which leads to Cinderella Castle, has become an icon, along with the beloved Main Street Dapper Dans barbershop quartet that hangs out and serenades guests. If walking down Main Street and listening to the Dapper Dans is one of your favorite parts of any Disney World trip, you’ve GOT to see the newest Disney merchandise. [Read more…]

From park size and crowd attendance to themed lands and icons and beyond, let’s explore what makes each park unique! [Read more…]
What if I told you that Disney World isn’t as safe as you think?
Walt Disney World
To be sure, in general, not only is it the “most magical” place on Earth, but it’s known for top-notch safety and security. I mean, the rides are constantly inspected and refurbished, and just have a look at all the inspection points on the way in. Those security dogs aren’t just there to look cute. There are, however, some unexpectedly dangerous places within Disney World and you might be shocked about what’s on the list!
