food IS a theme park
Even though the Disney Parks have been open for several months now since the closures, we’re still waiting on some of our favorite dining options to return (We’re looking at you, Casey’s Corner!).
Woody’s Lunch Box
Today though, we’ve got pretty good news from Hollywood Studios. In the past few months, we’ve seen spots like ABC Commissary and Hollywood & Vine reopen, and now a Toy Story Land favorite is BACK.
We’re so excited that Woody’s Lunch Box is now set to reopen in Disney’s Hollywood Studios on November 25th!
Woody’s Lunch Box area
Located in Toy Story Land, Woody’s Lunch Box is a Quick Service restaurant that serves up a variety of entrees and sides. But a few weeks ago, we noticed some changes to the menu, including the removal of the entire breakfast menu, as well as several lunch and dinner menu items.
Earlier today, Disney announced that 3 restaurants will soon be reopening in Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
The Crystal Palace
One of the spots that will be welcoming guests again soon is The Crystal Palace in Magic Kingdom. Although the characters will be “taking a break” from greeting guests at this restaurant, it will still be open soon for guests to enjoy and will be serving meals family-style, a change from its previous buffet-style meal. But the REALLY exciting news is that we JUST got a look at the new family-style lunch & dinner menu and we’re excited to share it all with you!
This year has been a challenging one for everyone due to the global health crisis. Disney was particularly hit hard when its theme parks all over the world were forced to close, with some being forced to close a second time after reopening.
Cinderella Castle
Things have certainly not returned to “normal” and the world awaits the arrival of a vaccine to slow or even stop the spread of the pandemic. With companies looking optimistic concerning a vaccine being available soon, Orlando may be one of the areas to see the release of the vaccines first.
Aside from shopping at the Disneyland Backlot Premiere Shop, we haven’t stepped foot INSIDE a Disneyland Resort theme park since March!
Disney California Adventure Park
But that is all about to change TODAY! It may not be the same as running through the park and riding Radiator Springs Racers or the Incredicoaster, but today we’re going to have the chance to walk down Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure for some shopping and dining and we could practically cry of excitement (tears may or may not have already been shed). Come along with us and take a virtual trip to the reopening of Buena Vista Street!
When Disney California Adventure partially reopens for select shopping and dining tomorrow, some things are going to be a LOT different.
Carthay Circle Marquee
For starters, guests can only visit Buena Vista Street for select shopping and dining experiences — no attractions will be open. And some of those stores and restaurants are going to look pretty different than before Disneyland Resort closed.
Looking for a quick meal while on the go? Well, if you’re staying at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort, now you can stop by the newly reopened Cafe Rix!
Cafe Rix
Earlier this week, we shared that Cafe Rix would be reopening today, so we stopped by this spot to see what it looks like now and what food options are available. Come along with us on a virtual tour!
We’re swinging by a beautiful Disney World resort to check out the latest!
Coronado Springs Lobby
We last checked in at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort when it reopened last month and now we’re back to see a few updates in food and construction!
Oh man, have we been craving some delicious sashimi and sushi from Tokyo Dining in EPCOT for quite some time!
Fresh Sashimi Sampler
But the wait is finally over (at least in a small way). The Japan Pavilion-Mitsukoshi USA just announced that Tokyo Dining will be reopening soon for a very limited time!
Little by little, many restaurants and hotels all around Disney World have reopened.
Cafe Rix
And soon, another spot will be added to the list! Cafe Rix at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort will be reopening in just a few days.
