food IS a theme park
Today, we’re talking about Disney World’s CHEAPEST hotels. (You hear that? It’s your wallet THANKING you.)
Disney’s All Star Music Resort
Let’s find out if “affordability” also means a “sacrifice of quality” – here on DFB Guide. [Read more…]
Disney fans can be cringey.
Cinderella Castle
HOLD UP. Before you get mad at us, we’re totally including ourselves in this category as well! From the words and phrases we use to the way we behave in the parks, sometimes we’re an unusual breed of fans. And today, we’re opening up and admitting to the cringeworthy things that we totally do in Disney World!
Disney World rides will sometimes close temporarily due to technical difficulties or bad weather. Other times, the rides close for scheduled maintenance.

Disney usually announces those scheduled closures ahead of time so that you can be prepared for your next vacation. To help you get ready, check out this list of everything that’ll be CLOSED in Disney World next week!
Okay, dear readers, we asked you over on Instagram to pick your FAVORITE Disney World quick-service spot and you continue to surprise us!
Grilled Cheese from Woody’s Lunch Box
In round 1, you voted for Connections Cafe & Eatery over Sunshine Seasons. In round 2, you voted EVERY SINGLE EPCOT fast food spot out of the running. In round 3, you got it down to just FOUR restaurants. Round 4 gave us our top TWO fast food spots going into the finals, so which one will reign supreme? Let’s find out!
It’s always a little depressing when a beloved ride closes in Disney World — even if it’s just temporary!
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster
Sometimes the closure is permanent, like Splash Mountain, which is getting re-themed to become Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Other times, ride closures are temporary due to technical issues. And sometimes, rides need to close to get some well-needed maintenance. That’s the case with a ride in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, which just reopened after a months-long closure.
The worst part about Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration being over is that many of the AMAZING 50th Anniversary snacks went away with the celebration. (Looking at you: Pressed Penny Silk Pie, and you, too, Mr. Monte Cristo)
Westward Ho
But some of our favorites still held on under new names, like the Shimmer and Glimmer Blondie in Disney’s Hollywood Studios (we were SO relieved when we saw it on the menu). Another favorite of ours also stayed on the menu after the celebration ended, so we THOUGHT it might stick around for good, but sadly, as of May 27th, that treat is GONE.
We’ve all been there — you’re in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and you are just VERY overwhelmed.
Hollywood Studios
Hot, sweaty, and stressed while trying to navigate the park? We experience that almost every day. Been waiting in line for hours at Rise of the Resistance? We bet those feet hurt. That’s why we’re here to share some good (and some not so good) news about Hollywood Studios!
If you’ve been to Disney World even once, you probably know that rain can literally happen at any given moment.
Rainy day at EPCOT
The weather can completely disrupt your day, close down rides, and probably leave you soaked and miserable by the end of the day (although we DO have some tips to prepare for the weather). But what if there is a good side to the rain? What if you could score a HUGE discount, but ONLY when it rains in Disney World?
Space Mountain is one of the most ICONIC classic Disney attractions. (And it’s also one of the most back-breaking rides in Tomorrowland — free chiropractic adjustment, anyone?)
Space Mountain in Disneyland
Space Mountain has experienced its share of highs and lows (pun intended because it’s a ROLLER COASTER 😂); it’s one of those attractions that’s been around for a LONG time. It initially opened in Disney World in March 1975 and later opened in Disneyland on May 27th, 1977. That means that Disneyland’s Space Mountain is turning 46 years old today, May 27th — and Disneyland is celebrating with a new souvenir and drink.
Summer is here and for many of us, that means vacation time! For many families, summer break is the perfect time to go to DISNEY WORLD, but you’ll need to stock up on a few things before you leave, right?
