food IS a theme park
Happy belated Birthday, EPCOT! In honor of the special day, we took a stroll around the park to see what was new!
Happy Birthday, EPCOT!
Let’s check out all things new in food, construction, and merch!
We’ve been a little obsessed with Fish and Chips recently. Maybe it’s because we saw those AMAZING Minnie Mouse Fish and Chips Ears (and all that other cool Fish and Chips merch). Or maybe it’s just because we’ve had a craving for some fried goodness.
Yorkshire County Fish Shop
So that’s why we got excited when we found out that the Yorkshire County Fish Shop at the U.K. Pavilion at EPCOT would reopen soon! We’ve wanted some fish and chips there since…well…since before Disney World reopened!
We’ve eaten our way around the world (many times) at EPCOT, but thankfully calories don’t count at Disney (right?).
EPCOT
Well, if you’re like us and you’re still waiting for some of those closed restaurants in Disney World to reopen (so you can eat even MORE food), then you’ll be excited to hear that one quick-service spot in EPCOT was open this past weekend and should be available when you visit on the weekends.
Maybe it’s not such a big secret that we love Disney snacks — lots and LOTS of Disney snacks.
Spaceship Earth
We’ve already put ourselves through the torturous decisions of ranking the Magic Kingdom lands by snacks AND ranking the lands in Animal Kingdom by their snacks. Whew. Well, we’re suckers for a little decisive turmoil so WE’RE BACK to ranking lands by snacks. This time, we’re examining Epcot’s World Showcase — arguably one of the snackiest spots in all of Disney World! WHICH PAVILION’S SNACKS WILL REIGN SUPREME?
The Disney Skyliner gondola system is brand, spanking new, and with that newness comes some logical questions and needs. What’s it like to ride the Skyliner? Can I bring my stroller on board? What happens if I get stuck twenty feet over Hourglass Lake (oh wait…that already happened!)? Check out our Skyliner FAQs!

But what we need — what we really need — is a Skyliner Food Tour! [Read more…]
OK, this is…adorable, tbh. We couldn’t be more excited to tell you guys about the new Fish and Chips merch we just spotted in Epcot! That’s right, dearies! We said FISH and CHIPS!!!
Rose & Crown Fish & Chips
We’ve eaten more fish and chips than we can count (and would ever admit to!) at the Yorkshire County Fish Shop and Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room!
In case you haven’t visited any social media channel lately, the NEW Disney color trend — Arendelle Aqua — has officially launched in Disney World and Disneyland.
Arendelle Aqua Minnie Ears
While we’ve enjoyed checking out all the new merchandise (like the GORGEOUS new Minnie Ears), we also tried EVERY. SINGLE. Arendelle Aqua treat we could find! Join us on a Frozen-themed journey through every Arendelle Aqua cupcake, slush, and treat we’ve found in Disney World and Disneyland.Â
Hello there, world travelers! Welcome to our latest roundup of What’s New in Epcot!
Spaceship Earth
We’ve got a lot to cover today — including Arendelle Aqua merch and treats — so let’s dive right in!
Frozen is taking over the Disney Parks once again with the NEW Arendelle Aqua collection! And it’s as if Elsa crafted it with her ice powers…because it’s so fun and magical!
Arendelle Aqua Collection
We had the opportunity to get a first look at many of the new treats thanks to the V.I.PASSHOLDER experience at Epcot today. We saw a ton of the merchandise and tried the NEW Arendelle Aqua Pearl Cupcake and the Arendelle Aqua Victoria Spongecake.
Yesterday, we shared Disney’s latest color trend — Arendelle Aqua!Â

This new color, which is inspired by Frozen, will hit the Disney scene on September 13th. But, if you’re a Disney World Annual Passholder, you will have the opportunity to purchase select Arendelle Aqua snacks and merchandise in advance!Â
