food IS a theme park
We’ve got a very important matter to discuss with you today!
Cinderella Castle and Main Street USA in Disney World
We know we’re always talking about our favorite foods at the Disney theme parks, BUT did you know many of our favorite snacks don’t even require a park ticket?!
So far, Planet Hollywood and The Boathouse have announced today that they’ll be reopening next Wednesday.
Blaze Pizza at Disney Springs
And now Blaze Pizza has just informed us they will also be reopening their Disney Springs location starting May 20th.
These delicious eats are gone, but definitely not forgotten!
Vanilla Ice Cream Churro Sandwich
It seems like things at Disney World are constantly changing — including the menus! And while we’re always thrilled to see a delicious new snack, sometimes these shakeups mean losing our favorites as well! Here are ten dearly departed Disney World menu triumphs that we want back!!
We are live from Universal CityWalk this evening as the shopping and dining district of Universal Orlando has reopened with limited operations today for the first time since the Resort began its temporary closure in March in light of the current global situation. (While CityWalk is now reopen, the theme parks and the rest of the Resort remain closed until further notice.)
Universal Orlando Resort
We’re covering all the ins and outs of our visit from our arrival (including required temperature checks) to retail experiences and beyond. And, of course, we’re grabbing a bite while we’re at it, so we hope you’ll join us for a stop at VooDoo Doughnut on Universal’s CityWalk! [Read more…]
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is almost synonymous with Disney World itself. As one of the original two hotels on property, this resort has stood the test of time and to this day remains one of the most popular resort hotels, despite the plethora of accommodations for guests to choose from.
Welcome to the Polynesian Village Resort!
One of the reasons so many people flock to the Poly is the FOOD! From quick-service snacks to a dinner show and knock-your-socks-off drinks the Polynesian offers some of the best-themed dining experiences at any Walt Disney World hotel.
There are SO MANY great options at the Poly so come along as we show you some of our FAVORITE food options around this tropical hideaway (you lucky people, you!).
Oh, Disney snacks and drinks, how we miss you!!
Mickey Pretzel
Since the parks have been closed, we’ve been having some MAJOR withdrawal from all the amazing restaurants in Disney World. From simple Mickey Pretzels at the food carts to the HUGE Kitchen Sink at Beaches and Cream, Disney hands-down has some of the best treats to indulge in when you’re at the parks.
Buuut, that doesn’t mean they’re all hits! There are still snack and drink flops, even in the Most Magical Place on Earth.
Disney Springs in Walt Disney World will begin a phased reopening on May 20th. And joining the list of eateries reopening that day is Sunshine Churros.
Sunshine Churro Cart
Sunshine Churros has two kiosks in Disney Springs, with one in the Marketplace and one on the West Side. [Read more…]
UPDATE 5/17: Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Company announced they will operate from 10AM to 10PM on May 20th.

Attention all chocoholics! This next list is for YOU! Disney World is full of tasty chocolate treats, and we’re sharing ten of the absolute best chocolate desserts you can find in the parks and resorts!
We even put chocolate on our PRETZELS!
These are in no particular order (we couldn’t POSSIBLY rank these even if we wanted to) so let’s dig in.
Who out there among us isn’t feeling a little EXTRA-indulgent these days!
Cupcake at Disney’s Pop Century Resort
In fact, not sure about you guys, be we’ve taken to storing some snacks between our couch cushions so that we don’t have to get up as much (and the kids and pets haven’t caught on to us yet!). WE KID, WE KID!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
