food IS a theme park
We’re still shocked that some popular restaurants have not reopened at Disney World (come back to us Casey’s Corner!), but little by little more spots are starting to reopen.
Spaceship Earth
Recently, at EPCOT Chefs de France in the France pavilion reopened, as well as Pizza al Taglio in the Italy pavilion. Now, a quick service spot in another EPCOT pavilion is back up and running!
When Disney World reopened this summer, a lot of places within Disney World didn’t. But recently, we’ve seen that begin to change, with restaurant reopenings happening across all four theme parks!
ABC Commissary Reopening
We were delighted to see the return of Cinderella’s Royal Table (WITH Cinderella!), as well as the reopening of one of our favorite watering holes Dawa Bar. And many more locations are reopening every day!
Although Disneyland and California Adventure remain closed, Downtown Disney reopened this summer. But some restaurants there are still closed and others are slowly reopening.
Tortilla Jo’s Queue
While the table service restaurant Tortilla Jo’s has reopened, its quick service location, Taqueria at Tortilla Jo’s, is still closed.
You know what they say: the early bird catches the Ronto Wrap!
Hollywood Studios in October
At least, that’s what you’ll be saying now that a couple quick service restaurants at Disney’s Hollywood Studios have scaled back their hours.
When you’re off on a planet in a galaxy far, far away, sometimes you need a l’il something to eat.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
After all, piloting the Millennium Falcon and fighting the First Order is a lot of work! While the Ronto Wrap gets a ton of hype, the dining anchor (since there are more options) of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo, a fast-casual counter-service restaurant themed to a delivery shuttle that ships goods on and off the planet of Batuu.
Things have been a little wonky when it comes to dining in Disney World today.
Pinocchio Village House Mobile Order Signs
This morning, we noticed that Mobile Order was unavailable on the My Disney Experience app. We’ve been keeping an eye on how different quick service restaurants have handled the interruption today, but now it looks like the technical difficulties have been resolved.
Mobile Order has been a pretty BIG deal in a reopened Disney World.
Mobile Order signs at Sunshine Seasons
With the global health crisis prompting Disney to reduce contact between guests and Cast Members, Mobile Order has been heavily encouraged at quick-service dining locations in and out of the parks in order to reduce crowding and to limit guest contact. Today, Mobile Order is temporarily unavailable, so we’re taking a look at how restaurants are handling it.
Even though we’ve been seriously enjoying ALL of the amazing snacks from the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, we can’t forget that there are several other spots to grab a meal or a special treat around EPCOT outside of the festival.
The Land Pavilion
So, today we resisted the temptation to eat our way around the world, and instead made our way over to The Land pavilion to see what new food we could find.
Who wants to enjoy an icy cocktail on a patio while watching a Florida sunset? We got you covered!
Shine Bar Social with new Outdoor Patio Walls
Indoor dining is still happening in and around Florida theme parks. That said, given the current global health crisis, many Disney guests prefer to sit outdoors. Other guests just want to enjoy their meals outside in the warm weather. To help out our outdoor eaters, we put together an ultimate guide to ALL outdoor dining at Walt Disney World!

We’ve SERIOUSLY missed Casey’s Corner and those delicious corn dog nuggets with plastic cheese!
Casey’s Corner
Right now, Casey’s Corner is still closed, but, when we stopped by Magic Kingdom today, we spotted some changes in the area that could mean this quick service spot is on its way to reopening soon!
