food IS a theme park
After spending most of a decade away, a DELICIOUS fan favorite item is coming back to the McDonald’s menu this summer.
McDonald’s… at night!
McDonald’s has announced that the McCafé OREO Frappé will be joining the chain’s summer menu at participating locations in 2024.
About four years later, the time has finally come for 1900 Park Fare to reopen!
1900 Park Fare
This character buffet located at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort closed in 2020 due to the pandemic and did not reopen with the rest of Disney World. Now, as of April 10th, it is finally open again. We’re celebrating the return of this charming restaurant and its famous strawberry soup. Come along with us as we find out which characters you get to dine with now that 1900 Park Fare is officially open!
We are always down for a trip to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge.
Let’s grab some food at Animal Kingdom Lodge!
Not only do you get spectacular views of the savanna, but it is also home to some of our favorite restaurants!
Where are our Marvel fans at?
Avengers Campus
It’s an exciting time to be a fan of Marvel Comics and movies. Not only is Marvel gearing up for what comes next in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but new merchandise arrives practically every day. But the most exciting thing happening with Marvel could come soon when Marvel and Coca-Cola team up for a HUGE collaboration.
Disney just dropped a TON of updates about all the changes coming to Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort.
Downtown Disney
We FINALLY got an opening timeline for Din Tai Fung, a Disneyland restaurant we are SO excited about. But before we talk about what’s coming, we need to talk about what’s GONE. A restaurant recently closed in Downtown Disney, and Disney didn’t waste any time telling us what would go in that location. Two MORE new restaurants are coming soon. Say what?!
While the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique has a well-earned reputation for being a rather expensive Disney experience, not many people know it features a very cost-effective option.
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique
Since the first Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique opened at Disney Springs (then known as Downtown Disney) in the mid-00s, the salon-like experience that transforms young children into princesses, princes, knights, and pirates — and sometimes even Encanto characters — has become one of the most popular in the Disney catalogue, expanding to the Magic Kingdom, Disneyland, and even the vessels of the Disney Cruise Line. However, as beloved as the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is, it also packs a punch for the wallet, with most packages ranging between $99 and $450. However, there is one that won’t break the bank.
We love getting NEW Disney food news from coast to coast!
Downtown Disney
Over at Disneyland Resort, the Downtown Disney shopping and dining district is undergoing some major changes. Several new restaurants were announced a while back, but it doesn’t seem like Disney is done revealing changes just yet! And, some updates are on their way to a popular Downtown Disney sweet spot, too!
If you’re a Disney fan, then there’s a good chance you’ve heard about the new restaurants coming soon to the Downtown Disney District in Disneyland.
Paseo and Centrico Construction
Paseo, Centrico, and Tiendita are all coming soon to the District to serve up some Mexican Cuisine. Further, Din Tai Fung is a Michelin-awarded restaurant from Taiwan that’s also opening. Today, we got a brand new look at the eateries and believe us when we say that we absolutely cannot WAIT for them to open. Check it out!
Disneyland’s Downtown Disney is in the process of a transformation of its own.
Downtown Disney entrance
Downtown Disney is Disneyland’s shopping and dining district like Disney Springs is in Disney World. However, it’s getting a bit of a makeover. Some locations, including restaurants, have been closing to make room for new ones to appear. A new market with several new dining locations will be opening, and a world-renowned restaurant from Taiwan will be available. Now, Disney has given us a clue about when this new restaurant will be opening!
We talk a LOT about Disney food here at DFB — we are Disney Food Blog, after all.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
And, as much as we love eating our way around the Disney World parks, some of our favorite meals and restaurants can be found around the hotels instead! Whether you’re looking for something to eat for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, chances are you’ll be able to get it at a Disney World hotel. But, before you go make a reservation — we have a bit of a warning for you!
