food IS a theme park
What if I told you there was a way you could ACTUALLY pull off a relaxing vacation inside the Disney World bubble — all thanks to a classic resort? Would you believe me?

You’ve seen Disney fans, but have you seen Disney Tiki fans?
Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar
Chances are you might find them at Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel. Even if you’re not a huge fan of all things Tiki, Trader Sam’s is a great spot to grab some fun drinks and delicious eats — unless you get kicked out. Don’t worry, we can explain…
Headed to Disney World soon? Before you go, you’ll want to know what’s going to be CLOSED when you get there.
Cinderella Castle
Disney World will periodically shut down rides, restaurants, and attractions to update them, so you may see some closures during your upcoming vacation. We’ve got a full list of next week’s planned closures so that you’re prepared before your trip!
From a GIANT Ferris wheel to a Cars-themed race through Radiator Springs, there’s a LOT to do at Disney California Adventure.
Disney California Adventure
If you’re planning a trip to Disneyland Resort this summer, you probably have a whole LIST of rides, shows, and other entertainment that you’d like to check out. But be aware some rides may be closed on your next visit. Luckily, we’re here to keep you informed and prepared, so let’s talk about two attraction closures starting soon in Disney California Adventure.
It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for — wait times are starting to go DOWN in Disney World.
Cinderella Castle
Crowds have been a little all over the place this year in the parks and Disney has announced that they expect demand to go down. Since then, we’ve seen several new discounts urging people to book a Disney World vacation. BUT if you are in the parks or going soon, we’ve got some good news from this week — the most popular rides are seeing a decrease in wait times!
Rainy weather can pop up at ANY time in Disney World — Florida is notorious for those sneak attack rain storms.
Ominous sky over Magic Kingdom
That’s why we always tell you to prepare for the weather by having a backup plan in place for when it rains in Disney World (because a LOT of rides will close during bad weather). We also tell you to keep rain gear with you at all times. But today, some Disney World GUESTS showed us the BEST way to deal with the rain at the parks.
Psst! Just in case you forgot, tomorrow is Father’s Day.

If you’re around Disney World, though, you might be wondering how to treat your dad to something special. Sure, there are a TON of Father’s Day-themed treats around the resort, but you COULD treat Dad to steak AND whiskey on his special day.
Well, the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser will be closing FOREVER pretty soon.
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Atrium
Although the innovative hotel-meets-experience project was a first of its kind, Disney decided to shutter the hotel forever with the final voyage dates on September 28th-30th — in fact, all voyage dates left for the Starcruiser are now sold out. But don’t worry — if you didn’t manage to get a reservation — or you couldn’t afford one of those pricey voyages, you can now buy Galactic Starcruiser merchandise online.
Well, the new Frozen movie is about to head “Into the Unknown.”
Anna and Elsa in the Festival of Fantasy parade
We were surprised — and thrilled — when Disney CEO Bob Iger announced that there would be a Frozen 3. We weren’t the only ones surprised; the Frozen and Frozen 2 songwriters only learned about it JUST before we did. We don’t really know a lot about the story of the new movie, but we do know one thing — a NEW director will be helming the film.
We’ve eaten everywhere in Disney World. Yes, EVERYWHERE.
Cinderella Castle
Nope, we’re not exaggerating. We’ve been in the business of reviewing Disney World restaurants for 15 years and we’ve been Disney fans even longer than that, so we have DECADES of experience dining “around the World.” For that reason, we’ve tried hundreds (maybe thousands) of items on the menus at Disney World’s table service restaurants, and we have strong opinions about what you should eat…opinions that we’re about to share with you!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
