food IS a theme park
Disney World just released a TON of news about planning your 2027 trip, and we’re already excited about what next year will bring! (We KNOW, 2027 ALREADY?!)
Dining Plan deals!
Between new vacation packages, ticket prices, and a NEW Dining Plan option, there are a lot of updates to take in. Speaking of the Dining Plan, Disney also revealed that a new deal is available for when you book one in 2027, and we’ve got all the details released so far!
Disney World just revealed a BRAND-NEW Disney Dining Plan in 2027, and we’re ready to eat!
Cinderella’s Royal Table
The Disney Dining Plan is a prepaid meal plan that sets the number of meals and snacks that you can get during your trip. This is a popular option for Disney World visitors due to the Dining Plan’s convenience and ease of use — and now there’s a NEW version you need to know about — the Deluxe Table-Service Dining Plan!
Summer is quickly approaching, and this year in Disney World, that means A LOT of things.
The Diamond Horseshoe
There are tons of eats to explore at the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival, multiple attractions have planned openings for this summer, and, of course, Cool KIDS’ SUMMER is returning as well, bringing along lots of fun activities and entertainment for those of all ages. One of the changes people are really looking forward to is a new update to The Diamond Horseshoe in Magic Kingdom, but if you’re looking to experience the restaurant BEFORE its switch, you’ve only got ONE month left!
It’s not uncommon to see closures in Disney World, so that rides, stores, hotels, or restaurants have time to refurbish and refresh.
Turf Club eats
A little while back, we learned that two hotel restaurants would be closing for a few months each to undergo some refurbishment. But now, the dates of those closures have changed!
Disney World is filled with so many dining spots, but a handful of them will be a lot harder to book this summer!
Breakfast at Crystal Palace
Summer is just around the corner, which means V.I.PASSHOLDER days are almost here at Disney World! One of the perks Disney revealed for the event is an increased dining discount at select restaurants for Disney World Annual Passholders. Whether you’re an Annual Passholder or you’re just visiting the parks this summer, if you’re interested in dining at any of these 12 restaurants during your vacation, you’ll need to book them sooner rather than later, because they’re going to be difficult to get!
Can you keep a secret? We aren’t joking here!
Pat O’Brien’s at Universal
Speakeasy is back at Pat O’Brien’s at Universal Orlando’s CityWalk! Speakeasy is an exclusive experience for guests that is literally hidden upstairs, which you get to by using the stairs in the back of Pat O’Brien’s. We got the chance to check it out with an early preview before it returns, and we just had to share our experience with you!
A visit to Singapore could lead you to some incredible eats!
Singapore eats!
We recently traveled out to Singapore to sail with the Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship — the Disney Adventure –, and we were fortunate enough to do a little bit of exploring (and dining) on the mainland before setting sail. As such, we’re taking you on a little culinary tour of some of the notable dishes we tried in Singapore!
One of Disney’s most POPULAR hotel perks is back… for a limited time!
Hi Mickey!
Right now, you can receive the Disney Dining Plan for FREE when booking a Walt Disney World vacation… but you’ll have to act fast, as time is running out on this deal.
When it comes to great dining, we once might have suggested that you don’t miss Be Our Guest Restaurant in Magic Kingdom. Of course, that was back before it was a pre-fixe menu for both lunch and dinner (and we really miss what lunch used to be like there).
Dessert at Be Our Guest
Now, we’re not as much fans of this restaurant as we once were, although if you want to see inside Beast’s castle, you HAVE to dine here. The truth is, we haven’t always felt like the high cost of the meal is worth the experience to do that. Well, we recently revisited Be Our Guest Restaurant to see if our minds could be changed. So let’s find out!
You know when you want the food of a sit down restaruant but the idea of having a whole dining experience just seems too much? Let me introduce you to Disney World lounges. These are our favorite spots to grab a drink and an appetizer to escape the chaos of the theme parks without having to commit to a full-service meal.
Steakhouse 71 Lounge
We’re heading to the Steakhouse 71 Lounge at Disney’s Contemporary Resort to check out some bites and drinks and see if you should add this stop to your Disney World trip.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
