food IS a theme park
The wilderness called to us and we answered with a visit to the Wilderness Lodge. We found new menu items at Roaring Fork, Geyser Point, and not 1, not 2, but 3 NEW skillets in Whispering Canyon Cafe! Check out all of the updates here!
Hello from Wilderness Lodge
Our adventures in the wilderness started out at the resort’s quick-service Roaring Fork, where we found some new items on the menu.
Walt Disney World’s Wilderness Lodge
is a terrific place to grab a meal. It’s home to the fun and family-friendly Whispering Canyon Cafe and to the new and fantastic Storybook Dining at Artist Point. Geyser Point Bar & Grill and Territory Lounge hold down the fort with bar food and great drinks.
And when it comes to quick service, the resort isn’t playing around, either. Roaring Fork is consistently good, serving up creative, quality eats that guests (and I!!) love. And breakfast… is awesome!

, the quick service dining spot at Walt Disney World’s Wilderness Lodge, is known for showing cupcakes some love. Remember the totally awesome Campfire Cupcake?

And we were excited to break the news that the loaded waffles were back at this quick-service staple recently, too!
Loaded Mickey Waffles at Roaring Fork
Well, the pastry wizards at Roaring Fork are at it again, this time bringing the flavor with the Chocolate Peppermint cupcake of the month.
What’s for dinner?
You probably hear that question every day and never thought about the importance it might have when choosing a Disney Resort.
But, when deciding where to stay at Walt Disney World, be sure to consider what’s on the menu at your resort along with the nightly room rate, room size, bedding, transportation to the parks, amenities, view, and location.
Roaring Fork Breakfast Menu
Choosing your Walt Disney World resort is a practical, emotional, and sensory decision. Each resort has a unique theme created by sound, smell, textures, colors, landscaping, architecture, and flavors.
And when you’re planning a stay at a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel you should think about what dining options are available for you and your family. The menus at the Quick Service and Table Service restaurants evoke each resort’s theme. A good planning tip is that you should peruse the resort menus before choosing your Disney accommodations.

… though not exactly in the way you might think. You see, Specialty Mickey Waffles were a signature breakfast item for ages at the Roaring Fork. [Read more…]
The holiday season has arrived at Walt Disney World! How do we know? The Magic Kingdom is decorated for Christmas. Flurry of Fun is starting at Hollywood Studios. Adorable snowman and gingerbread man drink accessories are popping up at Animal Kingdom.
Annnnd… Cinnamon Glazed Almonds and Cinnamon Glazed Pecans are available at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
Cinnamon Glazed Almonds and Pecans at Roaring Fork
These addictive, fan-favorite Cinnamon Glazed Nuts are available in the parks throughout the year, but they make a special appearance at Wilderness Lodge for the holidays.
We just showed off a few fun Halloween and fall-time treats unique to Walt Disney World a few days ago, and reviewed that yummy cinnamon pumpkin cupcake in Animal Kingdom as well! Now we’re headed over to Disney’s Wilderness Lodge to tackle another Halloween-y sweet treat — the Poison Apple Cupcake!
Let me just remind everyone that accepting a poison apple from some mean, scary witch in the forest is a bad idea. Really, a terrible one. Snow White taught us all a valuable lesson. But, accepting a poison apple cupcake from the lively cast members at Roaring Fork in Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, well, that’s a completely different story. Spoiler alert: It’s a really good idea. And a delicious one, too.
Roaring Fork Limited Time Poison Apple Cupcake
We LOOOOVE Wilderness Lodge. It’s like walking into a fall/winter day in a National Park Lodge every time I’m there…which is a nice mind trick when it’s still. so. freaking. hot. in Florida. Throw a Halloween-themed cupcake into the mix, and I’m game.
In case you needed another reason to visit Roaring Fork at Disney World’s Wilderness Lodge…
Oktoberfest Cupcake
… we’ve got one! It’s the Oktoberfest Cupcake! This chocolate cupcake is complete with Guinness ganache (!!!) and topped with cinnamon frosting, then garnished with chocolate-dipped pretzels and candy pearls for a sweet-and-salty treat. [Read more…]
Wow! They have been busy at Wilderness Lodge’s Roaring Fork in Disney World!
