food IS a theme park
It’s that time of the week again!
Be Our Guest Restaurant
It’s that time when we take a look at what’s going on with Disney World restaurants, review all the new snacks we tried, check out any new menus arriving, and look out for menu updates. Speaking of which, we’ve got some menu updates to share with you, so let’s get to it!
A LOT has changed at Disney World restaurants since the beginning of the year.
Mickey Bars cost more now!
While we were busy enjoying all the food booths at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts, we saw a TON of price increases happening on Disney World menus, as well as got the news that three restaurants would soon reopen. But there were even more updates than that! So here’s what you need to know about what’s happened with Disney World menus in January.
We’re still kinda reeling from all the price increases we saw at Disney World last week, but there have still been additional changes to Disney World restaurant menu updates.
Mickey Scone!!!
So while we’re eating our share of Mickey Scones (YES, THERE ARE MICKEY SCONES), we’re still going through all these updates and reporting on them. So let’s get to it, shall we?
Welcome back to another roundup of what’s new in Disney Springs! There’s a lot of buzz around the shopping and dining district with the opening of Cirque du Soleil’s Drawn to Life just a few days away!
Disney Springs
But first, let’s recap all of the latest food and merchandise updates, plus a special appearance by Jolly Old Saint Nicholas!
Whether you’re visiting Walt Disney World in the blazing heat of the summer, or you just want something to cool down after some intense rides, you can quench your thirst for something frosty with these favorite frozen drinks!
Hello, Night Blossom!
Let us clue you in on a little secret — it is blazing hot in Walt Disney World almost all year. LOL< OK — worst kept secret EVA! The good news is, no matter where you are, you will find a refreshing frozen drink that will put a smile on the sweatiest of faces. Check out some of our team’s favorite frozen drinks.
Star Wars is a big part of Disney World (there’s even a whole Star Wars-themed LAND in Disney’s Hollywood Studios), and you’ll find LOTS of out-of-this-world merchandise in various spots throughout the Most Magical Place on Earth!
Galaxy’s Edge
From lightsabers to spirit jerseys and Mickey ears, we just keep finding more and more great Star Wars items! Last year, Corkcicle came out with some super cool items thanks to a fun Star Wars collaboration, and now you can snag some of this collection in Disney World!
When you think of Dole Whip in Disney World, you probably picture Magic Kingdom. Right?
Dole Whip!
After all, what’s better than walking around Adventureland with that pineapple soft serve swirl in hand? Well, it actually can be better. You just might not realize it yet. Dole Whip is a park STAPLE — trust us, we get it! But you’ll have to head OUTSIDE of the parks for some more unique creations. If you’re craving Dole Whip but don’t want to settle for an ordinary soft-serve, float, or (gasp!) pineapple flavor, go for one of these options instead.Â
We are big fans of Wine Bar George — The Basket, not to mention awesome Frosé we often get from there!
Corkcicle!
But we also love the Corkcicles you can get there filled with your choice of a frozen drink. What’s better than a drink IN a reusable cup, right? And The Basket has been offering a variety of Corkcicles to choose from for a while!
Are you a collector of Corkcicles, by chance?
Pink Corkcicle — The Basket at Wine Bar George
Well, then, we’ve got another one you just might want to add to your collection. Wine Bar George has just introduced a new Corkcicle to keep your drink at the perfect temp for sipping, and THIS one is quite unlike any that the Disney Springs dining spot has offered before… [Read more…]
