In case you haven’t heard, there are a LOT of changes coming to both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort.
While many changes come in the form of new attractions (like the highly-anticipated TRON Lightcycle Run and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind), there are also a whole bunch of NEW restaurants coming soon, like Space 220 and Woody’s Roundup Barbecue to the parks and resorts! Let’s explore all the new and soon to be new options you need to know about.
Today, we’re going to explore ALL the restaurants that have opened this year and ALL the restaurants coming soon to Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. Let’s get started!
Recently Opened in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Oga’s Cantina
Let’s kick things off in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, which is now open in both Disneyland and Hollywood Studios. The only location offering Advance Dining Reservations at the moment is Oga’s Cantina.
Oga’s is famous for its out-of-this-world concoctions, like the literally lip-tingling Fuzzy Tauntaun and shimmery Bespin Fizz. You’ll also find a couple small snacks on the menu.
One important thing to note about Oga’s is that all the drinks are pre-mixed and many are definitely on the sweeter side!
Read our full review of Oga’s Cantina here!
While both Oga’s Cantina locations (Disney World and Disneyland) are similar, we did notice a few differences when we visited the Cantina in Disney World. We most recently tried Disney World’s updated version of Batuu Bits, which you can learn more about here! And don’t forget Disney World’s crazy new charcuterie plate! You can check that out here!
Both locations are currently accepting Advance Dining Reservations — you can make a reservation in Disneyland 14 days in advance and you can make one in Disney World 180 days in advance.
Docking Bay 7 Food & Cargo
The other “headlining” dining location in Galaxy’s Edge is Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo.
This quick-service spot serves a variety of eclectic eats, from a Mustafarian Lava Roll in the morning to a Braised Shaak Roast, Fried Endorian Tip-Yip, and Felucian Garden Spread in the afternoon and evening.
We just shared a recipe from the upcoming Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Cookbook for the Fried Endorian Tip-Yip! Learn how to make it at home HERE!

Fired Endorian Tip-Yip
Check out our full review of Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo here!
While Docking Bay 7’s food options are similar in Hollywood Studios and Disneyland, the beverage offerings are a bit different. Two beverages currently listed on Disneyland’s menu are not on the menu in Hollywood Studios — Phattro and Batuubucha Tea.
Also, the Sour Sarlacc was listed on Hollywood Studios’ menu when we were there, but it is not currently listed on Disneyland’s menu. Since Disneyland’s Docking Bay 7 does not serve alcoholic beverages, you’ll only find the Gold Squadron Lager Beer and Takodana Quencher in Hollywood Studios.
Read our review of the Takodana Quencher here!
Mobile Ordering is currently available at Disneyland’s Docking Bay 7 and was JUST added to Disney World’s Mobile Order system as well.
Ronto Roasters
Galaxy’s Edge is also home to Ronto Roasters, which offers Ronto Wraps, beverages, and a few other small food items.
The Ronto Wrap (there are different versions for breakfast and lunch/dinner) is hands-down one of our favorite menu items in Galaxy’s Edge. We recommend you grab this for a quick breakfast or lunch on Batuu!
Read our full review of Ronto Roasters here!
The Ronto Roasters menus in Hollywood Studios and Disneyland are primarily the same, aside from a few beverage-related differences. In Disneyland, you’ll be able to get Meiloorun Juice, while in Hollywood Studios, you can try the alcoholic Coruscant Cooler and Trandoshan Ale.
Check out our Coruscant Cooler review here!
The Milk Stand
If you’ve always wanted to try that memorable blue or green milk from the Star Wars films, you can do so at The Milk Stand!
In both Disney World and Disneyland, you can find traditional (dairy-free!) blue and green milk, but in Disney World, you can also grab BOOZY blue and green milk coolers. (Heads up to the parents out there — traditional milk comes in circular cups, while the alcoholic coolers are served in square cups.)
The Blue Milk Cooler features Bacardi rum. And the Green Milk Cooler adds a bit of Corazon Blanco Tequila to the standard milk.
Read our review of boozy green and blue milk here!
We’ve gotta be honest, we don’t love the taste of ANY of these drinks, but we do enjoy them more in a layered hack!
Even though we’d rather stop by Oga’s for a sweet drink, we don’t blame you if you want to grab one of these milks for the ‘gram photo op. 😉
Kat Saka’s Kettle
The last dining location you’ll find in Galaxy’s Edge is Kat Saka’s Kettle.
This is a small spot that serves Outpost Popcorn Mix and offers thermal detonator Coke and water bottles. (In case you missed it, the TSA ban on these special bottles has been reversed!)
The popcorn mix features both sweet and savory flavored popcorn. The sweet purple popcorn has a definite “fruity” quality to it that’s balanced out by the savory red chili flavor.
Learn more about Kat Saka’s Kettle here!
Recently Opened in Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Oasis Canteen
Another recent addition to Disney’s Hollywood Studios is the new Oasis Canteen kiosk.
This spot is located near the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! show, and it features a full bar as well as a selection of drinks unique to the location.
In addition to assorted beers, the new location offers a trio of specialty cocktails — The Lost Jewel, Snake Alley, and Long Lost Island. These drinks are obviously VERY brightly colored and are super sugary as well. They are pretty photogenic though! 😉
Read our first look and review of the new Oasis Canteen here!
Recently Opened in Epcot
Takumi-Tei
In July of this year, Epcot’s newest restaurant — Takumi-Tei — opened in the Japan Pavilion. This signature restaurant is only open in the evening and requires two table service credits if you’re on the Disney Dining Plan.
This menu includes Appetizers, Main Courses, Sashimi, Maki Sushi, Nigiri, and Desserts. In addition to the main menu, there is also an Omakase Tasting Menu ($130 per person) and an optional beverage pairing ($75 per person). One of our favorite things we tried during our first visit was the Nikomi Wagyu.
Everything on the menu is like a tiny work of art. We were so impressed with the care and attention to detail we saw in every step of our experience here.
Takumi-Tei truly provides a tranquil atmosphere (we surely didn’t feel like we were in the middle of a crowded theme park), wonderful service, and unique cuisine. But, it’s important to note that it can be a loooooong and intricate…and expensive…experience, so plan to spend a couple of hours if you choose to dine here.
Read our full review of Takumi-Tei here!
Recently Opened in Disney Springs
Sunshine Churros
Several locations opened in Disney Springs this year. Most recently, Sunshine Churros opened two carts — one in Disney Springs’ West Side and one in the Marketplace.
The menu features seven specialty churros — traditional cinnamon, watermelon, apple cinnamon, Fruity Pebbles, salted caramel, cherry limeade, and peach mango ($5.25 each), and two gourmet churros — strawberry cheesecake and Oreo ($6.25). You can also add a dip (Nutella or Dulce de Leche) to a specialty churro for $1 more.
Our personal favorites are the Peach Mango and the Cherry Limeade Churros!
Read our full review of Sunshine Churros here!
Cookie Dough and Everything Sweet
Also new to Disney Springs’ West Side is a cookie dough food truck, aptly called Cookie Dough and Everything Sweet.
The menu features five signature treats as well as cups or cones of cookie dough. The cookie dough flavors are Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter & Fluff, Cookies ‘n Cream Cold Brew, Celebration, and Candy Monster. If you’re looking for a vegan flavor, you’ll want to check out the Celebration and Cookies ‘n Cream Cold Brew. Unfortunately, none of the flavors are gluten-free.
Our personal favorite is the Celebration Parfait, which features layers of Celebration Cookie Dough and Celebration Mickey Cake, vanilla custard, strawberries, sprinkles, whipped cream, and a cherry.
Note that this location usually doesn’t open until 5pm!
Read our full review of Cookie Dough and Everything Sweet here!
Jaleo
This March, Disney Springs welcomed the fifth U.S. location of Jaleo by Chef José Andrés.
The restaurant itself features rich and vibrant decor to coincide with the authentic Spanish cuisine, and the food is very much in line with Chef Andrés’ playful and innovative style.
One of our favorite things we’ve eaten there is the Croquetas de Pollo, which are traditional chicken fritters served on a plate resembling a pillow. This kind of reminds us of the pillow holding Cinderella’s slipper, and it’s meant to! Read more here about Chef Andres’ shoe theme!
The Paella Valencia is an authentic standout as well!
Read our full review of Jaleo here!
Pepe
Chef José Andrés also opened Pepe, which is a counter-service location attached to Jaleo. This location in Disney Springs is the first brick-and-mortar location for Pepe, following the Pepe food truck, which has been a hit for the last several years in Washington, D.C.
At Pepe, you’ll find sandwiches, gazpacho, salads, sangria, and more, including the absolutely delicious Pepito Ternera!
We highly recommend grabbing a quick bite here if you’re in a hurry while checking out everything at Disney Springs.
Check out our full review of Pepe here!
Mac and Cheese Food Truck
Rounding out our list of additions to Disney Springs is the Mac and Cheese Food Truck!
The menu, of course, is all about Mac and Cheese. But several variations on the beloved comfort food keep things interesting…
We especially enjoyed the Bacon Cheeseburger Macaroni & Cheese — read our full review of it here!
The mac and cheese dishes we tried were all hearty and quite filling! Definitely grab a bowl if you’re in the mood for a mac attack!
Check out our full review of the Mac and Cheese Truck here!
Recently Opened at Coronado Springs Resort
Toledo — Tapas, Steak & Seafood
Gran Destino Tower opened at Disney World’s Coronado Springs Resort this summer, and with it came a few new restaurants. The resort’s headlining restaurant is called Toledo — Tapas, Steak, & Seafood. The beautiful restaurant serves a variety of Spanish-inspired dishes in an elegant setting.
Toledo serves some unique eats, like Savory Churros, and some standout dishes like the Manhattan Filet. This restaurant may not be for everyone, though, since the meal is pretty long and the cuisine may not appeal to all diners.
It’s also pretty far away from the theme parks, so if this is on your list, it will be a “destination” location.
But if you find yourself in Gran Destino tower looking for a more upscale dining experience, it can be a wonderful way to spend a few hours of your day.
Read our full review of Toledo here!
Barcelona Lounge
Gran Destino Tower’s Barcelona Lounge is another beautiful space, and it offers breakfast in the morning and tapas and drinks in the afternoon and evening.
In the morning, you’ll find things like coffee, pastries, yogurt, and fresh fruit.
It’s a great spot to grab a quick bite before a busy day at the parks.
Read our review of breakfast at Barcelona Lounge here!
From late morning until midnight, you can order a variety of light bites and drinks, with an emphasis on gin tonics. The Gran Gin Tonic is the signature drink of Gran Destino Tower, but for Barcelona Lounge patrons who may not love the flavor of gin, bartenders recommend the sweet Costa Del Sol with sweet-and-sour, pineapple, and fresh fruit.
Read our review of tapas and drinks at Barcelona Lounge here!
Dahlia Lounge
Sitting on the top of Gran Destino Tower is the stunning Dahlia Lounge. Inspired by the Disney short film Destino, this was, in part, storyboarded by artist Salvador Dali.
The extensive drink menu features a large selection of Spanish wines in addition to specialty cocktails.
The Lounge also provides guests with views of Hollywood Studios fireworks — you might be lucky enough to spot Epcot’s fireworks to the right as well!
Check out our review of Dahlia Lounge here!
Three Bridges Bar & Grill at Villa del Lago
Another new location to Coronado Springs Resort is Three Bridges Bar & Grill at Villa del Lago. This new restaurant features over-the-water dining in an open-air setting.
Three Bridges Bar & Grill offers a variety of drinks and eats, like Sherry Cobbler, Espumoso Punch, and Warm Manchego and Oaxaca Cheese Dip.
We thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to Three Bridges Bar & Grill — learn all about it in our full review here!
Recently Opened at Walt Disney World’s Swan and Dolphin
Chill and Java
Walt Disney World’s Swan Resort recently received two new quick-service food and drink locations!
Java, a new grab-and-go spot in the Swan’s lobby, serves a few breakfast options along with sandwiches, wraps, salads, and desserts throughout the day.
Java also serves teas, espressos, and coffees. They even serve Nitro Brew, which is cold-brewed coffee tapped with liquid nitrogen and Octane Coffee — a drink that keto dieters swear by!
Learn more about the Octane Coffee at Java here!
You can also grab a quick snack or a specialty frozen cocktail from Chill, Swan’s new frozen drink spot!
Chill serves several flavors of specialty frozen drinks including Strawberry Daquiri, Pina Colada, Frozen Margarita, Frozen Lemonade, Rum Runner, and Mudslide! You can also choose to get either or the boozy-versions or non-alchoholic versions of each!
Click here to see our photo tour of the Swan’s new Chill drink counter here!
Recently Opened at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Enchanted Rose
The Grand Floridian Resort’s former Mizner’s Lounge underwent a major transformation to become a lounge inspired by the Disney live-action movie, Beauty and the Beast called Enchanted Rose.

Enchanted Rose ©Disney
The new lounge features four unique spaces inspired by the film while the focal point of Enchanted Rose is the “magnificent gold chandelier that takes its inspiration from Belle’s flowing ball gown,” according to Disney.
The menu at Enchanted Rose is notably upscale with options like White Sturgeon caviar, artisanal cheeses, Octopus a la Plancha, and truffle fries!

Enchanted Rose Menu Items ©Disney
The drink menu features handcrafted cocktails like the Island Rose with grapefruit and rose vodka, lime, orgeat, pineapple, bitters, and rose water.

Enchanted Rose Cocktails ©Disney
A variety of non-alcoholic selections are also available including the Garden Cocktail, featuring a non-alcoholic spirit, lime juice, agave nectar, and soda.

Enchanted Rose Non-Alcoholic Beverages ©Disney
We were sad to see Mizner’s go, but we think Enchanted Rose is a welcome new addition to the beautiful Grand Floridian.

Recently Opened at Disney’s Riviera Resort
Topolino’s Terrace — Flavors of the Riviera
As you may know, Disney World’s Riviera Resort opened its doors on December 16th, 2019. When the newest Disney Vacation Club resort opened, so did several of its dining locations. These include Topolino’s Terrace — Flavors of the Riviera, Le Petit Cafe, Bar Riva, Primo Piatto, and Voyageurs Lounge.
Read about all the dining locations coming to the Riviera Resort here!
Topolino’s is the resort’s headlining restaurant and features a prix fixe character meal for breakfast where you can meet Artist Mickey!
Read our full review and see photos of Topolino’s character breakfast here!
Topolino’s also offers a signature dinner service with viewing of Epcot’s fireworks from its perch hight atop the new Riviera Resort.
Read our FULL dinner review of Topolino’s Terrace — Flavors of the Riviera here!
Le Petit Cafe
Le Petit Cafe serves at Riviera Resort’s coffee and pastry joint by day while it transforms into a wine and dessert bar by night!
The baked goodies at Le Petit Cafe are really exceptional! You’ll find a vast selection of everything from muffins to croissants, cinnamon rolls, and madeleines!
Click here for more information about Le Petit Cafe!
Primo Piatto
If you’re looking for a fast-casual place to grab a quick meal, Riviera Resort’s got you covered, too! Check out Primo Piatto! This place is serving up hearty Italian-style eats from pizzas, to sandwiches, salads and desserts!
Primo Piatto’s open kitchen is the main focal point of this new quick-service restaurant while there’s cases of grab n’ go beverages and snacks also available!
We ordered quite a few items from Primo Piatto including their yummy Croque Monsieur sandwich and Tuna Nicoise Salad! The freshness of the ingredients and presentation of the food was really top-notch for a quick-service!
Check out our review of Primo Piatto and take our photo tour of the restaurant here!
Bar Riva
Located right next to Primo Piatto, you’ll find Bar Riva — the Riviera’s pool bar! But don’t let its poolside location fool you — this is one seriously charming spot to grab a bite or a cocktail!
And while Bar Riva shares many of the same eats Primo Piatto serves, it does have some exclusive menu items like this Monte Cristo!
Read our Bar Riva review and see PHOTOS here!
Voyageurs Lounge
If you’re looking for a cozy spot to curl up with a good book at the Rivera Resort, it doesn’t get much cozier than the Voyageurs Lounge. This chill little spot reminds us so much of Walt Disney. And while Disney’s Riviera Resort as a whole is inspired by Walt’s European travels with his wife Lillian, this room seems to especially reflect its theme.
Learn more about Riviera Resort’s Voyaguers Lounge here!
Recently Opened at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel
Craftsman Bar
Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa has a new pool bar and it’s aptly called the Craftsman Bar. The seating area feels relaxed and laid-back, and the menu includes Appetizers, Artisanal Pizzas, Kids’ Meals, and Desserts.
During our visit, we especially enjoyed the Maine Lobster Quesadillas!
Check out our full review of Craftsman Bar here!
Whew!!! Now that we covered everything that’s opened recently, let’s turn our attention to everything coming soon to the Disney parks and resorts!
Coming Soon to Epcot
Regal Eagle Smokehouse: Craft Drafts & Barbecue
Earlier this summer, we learned that a new restaurant is coming to Epcot’s American Adventure Pavilion — Regal Eagle Smokehouse: Craft Drafts & Barbecue. According to Disney, this restaurant will open later this year and will replace the recently-closed Liberty Inn. It will feature BBQ and craft brews on tap.

American Adventure
Disney shares that the modern barbecue smokehouse will have “all the accompanying sights, sounds, smells and flavors you love – including a large smoker preparing fine food every day right on the pavilion’s promenade.” A redesigned patio is also in the works!
Learn more about Regal Eagle Smokehouse here!
Space 220
Slated to open sometime in early 2020 is Space 220, which will be helmed by The Patina Group and located near Future World’s Mission: Space attraction.
To access the restaurant, guests will board an elevator that will simulate real-time rocketing into orbit as they travel to a space station hovering above the Earth. Diners will see daytime and nighttime views of Earth as they’re surrounded by a full panoramic view of space!
The menu is not yet available, but we do know the location will offer internationally-inspired cuisine along with more than 1,000 bottles of the world’s finest wines and a wide selection of craft beer.
Learn more about Space 220 here
La Crêperie de Paris
Set to open in Epcot’s France Pavilion in summer 2020 is La Crêperie de Paris.
This new location will offer both table and quick-service dining and will feature a menu from celebrity chef Jérôme Bocuse of Chefs de France and Monsieur Paul.
Learn more about La Crêperie de Paris here!
Coming Soon to Disney Springs
Ample Hills Creamery
If you follow Disney Food Blog, you’ve likely known all about how much we love Ample Hills Creamery, which already has a location on Disney’s BoardWalk. And now, another location is coming to Disney World, and this one will be located in Disney Springs!
The new Ample Hills location will be located in Disney Springs’ West Side and will feature much of what you can already snag at the current Ample Hills location. We’re already wondering if they will create a flavor that can only be purchased at Disney Springs, like the Sally Sells Seashells BoardWalk-exclusive flavor!
Learn more about the second Ample Hills location here!
Beatrix
Also coming soon to Disney Springs is Beatrix, which will head into an open location on the area’s West Side.

©Disney
According to Disney, the location will be a “neighborhood restaurant, coffeehouse and grab-and-go market featuring healthy food options including vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan along with fresh-squeezed juice cocktails.” The restaurant, helmed by Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises, will also have a full-service bar and bakery.
Learn more about Beatrix here!
City Works Eatery & Pour House
Heads up, beer fans! Another restaurant coming soon to Disney Springs is City Works Eatery & Pour House, which will be located adjacent to the new NBA Experience. When it opens, guests can expect to enjoy plenty of high-def TVs (including a 165-inch screen) showing live sporting events.
In keeping with the current seven City Works Eatery & Pour House locations, the Disney Springs location will serve 80 beers on tap (!!!!!!). These will include rare, limited supply, special tappings from local breweries as well as from spots around the globe. Wine will also be served. No matter what you choose, expect the pub grub, shareable plates, burgers, and more to pair well with your beverage!
Read more about City Works Eatery & Pour House here!
And upon investigation into other City Works locations and discovering that many of them offer similar menus, we headed to a City Works close-by and did a quick review!
See what you might be able to expect at the Disney Springs City Works here!
Coming Soon to Disney California Adventure
Pym Test Kitchen
In 2020, Disney California Adventure will welcome the first phase of its Marvel-themed land, Avengers Campus. A brand new restaurant known as PYM Test Kitchen will open as part of this new land.
We don’t know a whole lot about this location yet, but Disney has given us a taste of what we can expect. “Just as Ant-Man and The Wasp use ‘Pym Particles’ to grow and shrink just about anything, Pym Technologies is using the latest innovations to grow and shrink food at this eatery!” Sounds interesting, doesn’t it??
Find more details about PYM Test Kitchen here!
We certainly do have a lot of restaurants to enjoy and anticipate! We also have SO MANY attractions and experiences to look forward to as well.
