Yesterday during the slew of price increase madness around Walt Disney World Resort, we shared that Refillable Mugs would possibly be receiving a price increase.Â
And today we have CONFIRMED that this is indeed the case.
Warning! If you think pumpkin spice “everything” is soooo basic, you might have a change of heart when you see this…
Yes, friends! You’re looking at Pumpkin Spice DOLE WHIP!!! Disney’s really swung for the fences with this one! But maybe things will make more sense to you when you find out where you can get this!
We were at Port Orleans — French Quarter Resort early yesterday morning when the NEW Scat Cat’s Club — Cafe debuted (we’re talkin’ Mickey Beignets for days here, people!) — and just in case you didn’t set your alarm, you can read about our experience earlier in the day here!
And now we’re back at Port Orleans for another round of the BIG EASY, because guess what! The NEW Scat Cat’s Lounge is now finally OPEN!
In case you missed it, Enchanted Rose is the official name for the bar and lounge coming to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort.
The Beauty and the Beast-themed lounge will replace the Resort’s Mizner’s Lounge and is expected to open sometime this fall. While we recently got a sneak peek at a few of the menu items, Disney has now released the FULL MENU!
Today’s a HUGE day at Walt Disney World, and one of the biggest events of the day is the release of Disney’s new plant-based dining options and green leaf logo!
We told you about this logo and new menu items last week (read about them here), and today, Walt Disney World is rolling out its plant-based quick service updates! While checking out the NEW varieties of beignets at Scat Cat’s Club Cafe at Port Orleans — French Quarter this morning, we also spied a new Plant-based Mickey-shaped Waffles option in Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory. [Read more…]
Happy October 1st, y’all!
So a LOT of exciting things are happening today (check ’em all out in this post!) like the grand opening of Epcot Forever and the new Epcot Experience, the Donut Box and Cool Wash are opening at the Epcot Food and Wine Festival, and Disney is debuting plant-based logos and new plant-based menu items.
Buuut…it looks like Disney has one MORE change in store for us today…and it’s NOT. AWESOME.

Super weirdness taking place at Disney World food courts, my friends!
Today at Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory at Disney World’s Port Orleans French Quarter Resort, we spotted signage showing refillable mug (which you can buy at Disney World resort hotels that allow you to get free refills for a select amount of time) prices bumped up by one dollar — to $19.99 from the previous price of $18.99.
Other signage at the food court — and at other food courts around Disney World — still said $18.99 as of this morning, so we were curious to say the least.
Checking out Disney World’s online menus, we also saw $19.99 as the price of refillable mugs. We’re seeing LOTS of price increases on the online menus at the moment as well, so that’s something we’re watching closely and double checking in the parks. So it wouldn’t be surprising for the mugs to be going up in price as well.
Upon asking a manager at Port Orleans French Quarter about the signage we saw at $19.99 compared to the $18.99 signage we were seeing elsewhere, he rang up a mug for us and it came to $18.99.Â
So what conclusions can we draw from this? Well, generally I’d say that the Disney World website is a known glitch-fest a lot of the time, so I’d watch and wait. But today — well, today we’re seeing price increases ACROSS THE BOARD at Disney World resorts and theme parks. Some are already in effect, and some are just shown on the online website menus. But since we ARE seeing some in place in the parks right now, it wouldn’t surprise me if the official refillable mug price increase followed suit.
We’ll continue to watch this story for you, and we’ll double check resorts throughout the day and going forward to make sure you know any price increase changes we’re seeing. In the meantime, don’t be surprised if your refillable mug soon costs you $19.99 for length of stay.
Oh boy, planning a Disney trip can be quite the adventure, and we totally get it! But fear not, dear friends, we compiled EVERYTHING you need (and the things to avoid!) to plan the ULTIMATE Disney vacation.
Whether you're a rookie or a seasoned pro, our insider tips and tricks will have you exploring the parks like never before. So come along with us, and get planning your most magical vacation ever!

Do you…feel a little bit different this morning? Maybe like the sun is a little brighter or the birds are singing a bit more sweetly? Do you think it’s maybe because THERE ARE MORE MICKEY BEIGNETS IN THE WORLD?!?
Yep, early this morning we were present at a special ribbon-cutting for the NEW Scat Cat’s Cafe grand opening at Disney World’s Port Orleans French Quarter Resort…and it was 100% worth the early alarm clock, my friends, because we have MORE Mickey Beignets to share with you! Let’s go!
It looks like we’ll have even more places to grab some delicious beignets from Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter VERY SOON.
In case you missed it, we recently chatted about Disney World’s plans to not only expand Scat Cat’s Club but also to introduce a new dining location in the New Orleans-themed resort, called Scat Cat’s Club — Café. And now, it looks like the new and expanded locations will each open tomorrow!
We’ve been really enjoying telling you folks back home about the NEW Disney Skyliner!
And now we have a fun little surprise to report to you! Just wait until you see what was left for us at our Disney World Resort room last night!
