Disney World’s Magic Kingdom has seen so many changes this year, and even more are on the horizon. The Diamond Horseshoe will transform into a cowboy-themed lounge for a limited time this fall!
The Diamond Horseshoe will open on October 4th with a brand-new menu, and reservations open on September 29th. But Disney just majorly changed the reservation process!
To book a dining reservation at most Disney World restaurants, booking opens at 6 AM Eastern Time. But when we checked out the Diamond Horseshoe’s page on the Disney World website, Disney quietly announced that reservations will open at 8 PM Eastern Time on September 29th, not the usual 6 AM. While you don’t have to set your alarm anymore, be sure to mark your calendar to snag a reservation!
If you’re unable to snag a reservation, The Diamond Horseshoe will welcome walk-ins after the reopening, so you might be able to grab a table. The restaurant used to put out a sign like this one on slow days, so make sure to keep an eye out for it!
Once it reopens, The Diamond Horseshoe will serve a Wild West-inspired menu of small bites and drinks:
Small Plates
- Charcuterie: Cured beef, candied bacon, smoked pork, green chile cheese, smoked cheddar, and pickles
- Glazed Sticky Ribs with cowboy beans and jalapeño crisps
- Queso Fundido with Barbecue Burnt Ends with warm tortilla chips
- Sweet Golden Corn Fritters with cilantro ranch dressing and red chili honey
- Chipotle Chicken Tostada with queso fresco, lime crema, and pickled cactus salsa
- Mini Hot Dog Platter: Wrapped in pastry and served with tortilla chips and a side of queso
Non-Alcoholic Specialty Beverages
