food IS a theme park
Today’s DFB video is actually a SECRET DOOR into our rarely trotted out trove of Disney World hidden gems.
You’ll want to save money when you visit Disney World
Welcome to DFB’s EXCLUSIVE club of the BEST parts of Disney World that you WON’T find on Trip Advisor.
St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner, and if you are going to be at Disney World over the holiday weekend, you’ll want to head to Disney Springs!
Disney Springs
While St. Patrick’s Day may not be until Monday, March 17th, one of Disney Springs’ newest restaurants is hosting a special brunch to celebrate the holiday on Saturday, March 15th. Here are all the details!
We’re finally starting to get tons of details about this year’s EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival — and we can’t wait!
2024 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival
The festival starts on March 5th and runs through June 2nd, 2025. We’ve already got a list of all the food booths AND menus, as well as have all the details about this year’s lineup for the Garden Rocks concert series (and dining packages are available now!) Well, we also have ALL the details about a fun festival activity, the Garden Graze, which tasks you with eating around the festival to earn a cool prize!
Disney World has hundreds of different restaurants spread out over the entire resort, which can feel a little overwhelming when you’re trying to plan your trip, but that’s why we’re here!
‘Ohana
Here at DFB, it’s our job to try all of Disney World’s restaurants to tell you what’s worth your hard-earned money, and what you may want to stay away from to avoid disappointment. We don’t just go to every restaurant once though — we visit regularly to keep you updated! Disney World is always changing, and that means restaurants are, too. ‘Ohana has long been a favorite of ours, but recently we’ve been less impressed with our meals there, and so have our readers. Before you book your upcoming dinner reservation here, these are four things you really need to know. [Read more…]

While the new theme park does not open until May 22nd, teams are hard at work getting the park show ready for its first guests on opening day. To test out rides and attractions, Universal Orlando is hosting preview days for its Team Members as part of its Team Member-first culture!
If you’ve been a Disney Food Blog reader for a while, you probably know just how much we love Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie in the France Pavilion at EPCOT.
Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie
This patisserie offers an extensive menu of sandwiches, pastries, desserts, and more, so it’s no wonder why we (and so many others!) love this counter-service spot. We recently stopped by for lunch and grabbed an old favorite to see if it still holds up — check out our full review below!
It has been an exciting day at Disney World. Both Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom have eliminated virtual queues and now offer standby lines.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
That means there are currently no virtual queues in Disney World (although we will likely see more pop up in the future). Of course, we were in the parks checking things out first-hand, and we have some surprising takeaways to share with you!
It’s the end of an era at Disney World.
Jellyrolls
Jellyrolls announced earlier this month that it will be leaving Disney’s BoardWalk after 30 years of operation. The boisterous dueling piano bar will have its final day of operation on April 19th, and while it will be reopening somewhere not on Disney property, we can’t help but feel the sting. So, we’re sharing our favorite stories from Jellyrolls over the years!
After months of waiting, we finally know when Moana 2 will premiere on Disney+!

The sequel to the Oscar-nominated Disney film was originally developed as a TV series, but it was revamped into a movie that ended up making more than $1 billion at the box office. You can stream Moana 2 on Disney+ beginning on March 12th, 2025.
One of our favorite small nooks in Disney World just went through a change that’s bad news for all the “tall nappers” out there!
Contemporary Resort
On our most recent trip to Disney World’s Contemporary Resort, we noticed a big change to the seating area up on the third floor. Or, to be more precise, it was a change that made things smaller… with big ramifications.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
