food IS a theme park
If you’re headed to Disney World today, you may be in for some serious crowds. During this holiday weekend, we saw Disney parks reach their capacity limits.
Magic Kingdom
But, if you’re a Haunted Mansion fan, you may find yourself waiting in a line that isn’t even for the attraction itself. Today, we found one of the longest lines in Magic Kingdom…at a quick service restaurant.
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Magic Kingdom!
Mickey Pretzel Time!
And, we’ve got plenty of food, merchandise, and construction updates to share with you, so let’s dive right on in!
Well, well, well… it’s been quite the day already at Magic Kingdom’s Sleepy Hollow Refreshments! ICYMI, the highly anticipated Madame Leota Sipper Cup hit the Halloween scene early at this counter service spot.
Madame Leota Sipper Cup
She wasn’t due to materialize until September 8th — along with lots of other fall snacks and novelty items around Disney World. But, lo and behold, while we lined up anxiously awaiting our new spirited sipper… we found another early autumn arrival here! The Pumpkin-spiced Mickey Waffle Sundae is back at Sleepy Hollow, too!

HOLY HALLOWEEN, have we got some NEWS today!
Madame Leota Tart
We were just having a regular old Thursday when Disney decided to LOAD US UP with news on how Halloween will be celebrated in Disney World this fall, even without Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! With everything from spooky decorations to frightfully delicious tricks and treats, we’re so excited to celebrate — especially with the coolest sipper we’ve ever seen!
Sleepy Hollow Refreshments is an iconic spot to grab a quick bite at Disney World, but it’s also the center of a lot of paranormal food activity.

You see, menu items have a way of disappearing and reappearing at this mysterious Magic Kingdom spot A LOT!
Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom kicked off their grand re-opening last weekend! We were in the parks staking out what was new and missing from our favorite theme parks.
I Lava You Float
Most restaurants are offering limited menus due to the new re-opening procedures. With that, we noticed a lot of crowd-favorite snacks went missing! We already knew some of these tasty treats wouldn’t be making a reappearance, at least not initially, but the loss became way too real now that we’re back in the parks! [Read more…]
As we’ve previously seen before select Disney Springs dining locations and Disney World resort restaurants reopened, sweeping menu cuts are now occurring at several theme park restaurants.
Tony’s Town Square Restaurant
Just recently, Disney has shared with us which Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom restaurants will be reopening on July 11th as well as which dining locations will be available when Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Epcot resume on July 15th. Disney is offering limited menus at many of the resorts and Disney Springs restaurants for the time being. And, now it looks like the parks are following suit.
These delicious eats are gone, but definitely not forgotten!
Vanilla Ice Cream Churro Sandwich
It seems like things at Disney World are constantly changing — including the menus! And while we’re always thrilled to see a delicious new snack, sometimes these shakeups mean losing our favorites as well! Here are ten dearly departed Disney World menu triumphs that we want back!!

Does anyone else find themselves craving breakfast food constantly? Just us?? Well, we’re so dedicated to “the most important meal of the day” that we decided to do some digging to see if there’s a place in Disney World that serves breakfast all day! So put on your stretchy pants and let’s go on a (scrambled) egg hunt!
Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is FULL of incredible food and we know where to find it. There are so many options for great eats, in fact, that it can lead to some tough decisions! There are even some food options you may not know even exist, making your choice on what to eat even TOUGHER!
People have THOUGHTS about Disney food!
There is so much more to Magic Kingdom than just burgers and chicken nuggets, and that’s why we’re here! If you’re struggling to decide what to order next time you’re in the Most Magical Place on Earth, let us help!
