food IS a theme park
We keep an eye on ALL food-related news in Disney World.
EPCOT’s Mexico Pavilion
We love to keep an eye out for new snacks so we can share our thoughts on all the best new treats. We also check out EVERYTHING at EPCOT’s festivals to make sure we can recommend ONLY the best items. We also keep an eye on menu updates at Disney World, and sometimes, we spot price increases. Well, we’ve got some price increases to tell you about for TWO restaurants at a popular EPCOT World Showcase Pavilion.
Well, it’s been quite a ride, hasn’t it?
New Orleans Square
We got ALL kinds of updates about Tiana’s Palace Restaurant in Disneyland, including a first look INSIDE the restaurant, the restaurant’s menu, Cast Member outfits, and more. But here’s the thing, two MORE restaurants in the area will also be getting some updates! Say what?
Things are always changing in Disney World.
Big CHANGES are happening at a Magic Kingdom restaurant
Rides come and rides go. There’s always SOME kind of construction going on (especially at EPCOT these days). Shops close and new restaurants are announced. Disney World restaurant menus also often change, and we’ve got some BIG changes to report at a restaurant in Magic Kingdom.
It’s been a VERY exciting week in Disney World when it comes to food.
Sushi
A brand new restaurant surprised us and opened early in EPCOT (and we ate a $300 sushi boat with ZERO regrets). The way you book dining on the Disney World website and My Disney Experience app has changed (and we think, it’s for the better). More EPCOT Food and Wine food booths opened, too! PLUS we saw some updates on Disney World restaurant menus, so let’s talk about those.
When it comes to food (and everything else), something is ALWAYS changing in Disney World.
Japan Pavilion in EPCOT
We’re always seeing favorite foods go away. But we’re also seeing new foods turning up on menus. We also get some great seasonal snacks. What we’re trying to say is that menu changes are going to happen. Sometimes those changes mean price increases, though, and one EPCOT restaurant saw plenty of that this week.
Y’all, we have seen a lot of food,eaten a lot of food, and taken a lot of photos of food this week.
Candy Corn Milkshake
Why? Because Halloween snacks have arrived PLUS we went to the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in Magic Kingdom and we ate ALL the party-exclusive snacks there, too. SO much food. But we’re back with MORE food news, this time to tell you about changes happening at Disney World restaurants.
We’re constantly on the lookout for new food in Disney World!
Saratoga Springs Resort
Whether that’s new snack items in the parks, updated menus at table service restaurants, or delicious offerings at an EPCOT festival, there’s a LOT to eat in Disney World. And now, we’ve heard that a hotel restaurant is about to overhaul its menu!
Everything is always changing in Disney World.
Ariel Milkshake
Right now, some things are changing on World Showcase Lagoon in EPCOT (and some Disney fans might not be happy about it). Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is in the middle of construction for new Disney Vacation Club villas. New restaurants are on the way, as are new attractions. But restaurant menu changes are also happening regularly at Disney World restaurants.
The ONLY thing we’ve been thinking about this week is food. Okay, well, that’s every week, but even MORE so this week because the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival has officially kicked off.

So while we were eating our way around the world, eating ALL the cheese, and buying new festival merchandise, we were also keeping an eye on Disney World restaurant menus for changes. So let’s look at how those restaurants have changed recently.
Quite a few things are getting UPDATES in Disney World right now!
Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn is getting refurbished from top to bottom, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is getting a new DVC tower, and Splash Mountain was closed at the beginning of this year to become Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom. But soon, one refurbished restaurant will be reopening!
