food IS a theme park
From time to time, things can go wrong on a trip to Disney.
Magic Kingdom
It’s very normal to not have a perfect trip. Sometimes, things just go wrong and that can be a normal part of anything. But unfortunately, sometimes, the things that go wrong can be really bad. Recently, one guest had a terrible incident happen to them while at one of Disney World’s parks and is now suing the company. Here’s what we know.
Disney Springs offers an endless amount of AH-MAZE-ING food options, and no one’s surprise, The Polite Pig is at the top of many guests’ lists for delicious eats!
The Polite Pig
With menu offerings from Prime Brisket to BBQ Meatballs, The Polite Pig does not disappoint when it comes to offering delicious BBQ favorites! In the past, The Polite Pig has offered specialty menu items and dining experiences to draw in BBQ fans, so when we heard about this upcoming experience, we had to get you all the details!
Well, the time has come. The Star Wars Hotel is officially closed. Throughout its short run, we saw a lot of discourse about the price, value, and concept of this experience, and since the closure announcement, we’ve heard a LOT of speculation about what could replace the hotel.
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser
Pretty much everyone we ask has their own ideas about what Disney should do with the space. Could Imagineers go BIG and gut the entire building? Could they try to save some money and make a few small changes? We still don’t know! But there’s one thing we do know: Disney has a big, empty building and a team of some of the most creative people out there, so the transformation possibilities are endless. While we wait for an official announcement about the fate of the Star Wars Hotel building, let’s talk about what we think Disney could do with the space.
Sometimes Mondays can be really rough, even for Disney World. Today, we spotted one restaurant in particular that was seriously struggling.
Magic Kingdom Entrance
We’ve seen restaurants and rides having rough days in this park before — Casey’s Corner was unexpectedly closed for a while a couple of weeks ago, and Space Mountain went down for HOURS earlier in September. Now, a popular spot in Frontierland has a case of the Mondays. [Read more…]
Halloween is in full swing in the Disney parks.
Halloween in Magic Kingdom
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is happening over at Disney World and Oogie Boogie Bash over in Disneyland. If you’re at home though, you can join in on the Halloween fun by checking out some of the merchandise online. If you’ve been waiting for this one popular souvenir to come back in stock, we’ve got good news!
Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney Springs is in its ELEMENT during the entire month of October. For one thing, it’s Halloween season, and Halloween and Gideon’s Bakehouse go together like milk and cookies. But October is also the official birthday month of Gideon’s Bakehouse. Happy birthday, Gideon’s!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
So, what can we all do to celebrate October in Disney Springs this month? Well, the fall menu has ARRIVED at Gideon’s Bakehouse, and we’re SUPER excited to see some returning favorites back this year.
There are a LOT of ways to get to Disney Springs, but one of the most efficient involves driving yourself. Sure, you can take a Disney bus or boat, but you might end up waiting a while for that transportation to show up. Or, if you’re staying at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort, you can walk to Disney Springs. But for those of you who prefer to park at Disney Springs, we’ve got an important update to share on the parking situation in Disney Springs.
Disney Springs
Recently, we shared an announcement that Disney Springs had plans to change its parking rules. So, if you’re planning to visit Disney Springs, you may need to hear this important parking news.
Another week, another round of changes at Disney World restaurants.
Loaded Street Corn Dog
While we were busy trying some corn dogs at Disney Springs (and one of them BLEW OUR MIND), eating a new fall treat at Karamel Kuche in EPCOT (like we even need an excuse to go there!), and making sure you have EVERYTHING you need to plan that Halloween snacking at Disney World, we were also keeping an eye on Disney World menus. Yep, there are menu updates this week you need to know about.
One of the BEST perks of staying at a Disney World hotel is the free transportation.
The best way to get around!
Between the monorail, Skyliner, boats, and buses, making your way around the parks and hotels is pretty easy. Recently, we’ve seen more and more transportation offerings come back, and with this newest change getting around the Disney World hotels is about to get even easier!
If you’re traveling to EPCOT soon, be prepared for quite a few changes!
EPCOT
From the addition of Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana and the Figment meet and greet to the completion of the construction on World Celebration…the park is a completely different place than it was even just a year ago! And now, we’ve got news about another character meet and greet in EPCOT.
