food IS a theme park
Have you been to Disney World’s most cinematic park lately?
Slinky Dog Dash
We sure have! And now, we’re checking in on EVERYTHING new we’ve seen at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in the past few days. Get ready for an update on the latest in merchandise!
A LOT of Disney World restaurants have been reopening recently!
Hollywood Studios
Disney World isn’t quite back to normal yet, but more and more fan-favorite spots are returning. We’ve luckily been reunited with 50’s Prime Time Cafe since last year, but the adjoining Tune-In Lounge has NOT been available. Could that change SOON?
Recently, Boma reopened at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, Citricos reopened at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, and other restaurants are set to reopen soon!
Tree of Life
Now, Disney has announced that ANOTHER spot will soon be reopening with NEW menu items — and this time it’s over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Yesterday, we saw that Dockside Diner at Disney’s Hollywood Studios was showing times for reopening this weekend.
Dockside Diner
Now, Disney has confirmed that the quick-service restaurant will be opening this weekend, on August 22nd. But that’s not all the news they released — there will be NEW menu items coming to Dockside Diner! Let’s see what’s coming when it reopens this Sunday.
A few Disney restaurants are taking a BIG step back to normal!
The Crystal Palace at Magic Kingdom
Today, Boma at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge became the first buffet to open in Disney World since the parks closed last year. Other restaurants that used to be buffets have been using family-style service, but that’s about to change!
So many things are reopening in Disney World!
Boma is back!
Boma just reopened at Animal Kingdom Lodge, Columbia Harbour House recently returned to Magic Kingdom, and we’re so happy that some original favorites are back on the menu at ‘Ohana! And we just found out about another returning dining experience you’re going to want to hear about!
Things have been changing quite a bit at Disney World recently.
Biergarten
Mask rules were recently updated, the FIRST buffet reopened at Disney World with Boma at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, and more spots are set to reopen soon. Biergarten Restaurant in EPCOT’s Germany pavilion has been open for quite some time offering a family-style meal (as opposed to its typical buffet), but soon things there will be changing!
La Crêperie de Paris is a new restaurant coming soon to EPCOT’s France pavilion, serving up — you guessed it — crêpes, both sweet and savory.
La Crêperie de Paris
The long-awaited crêpes restaurant isn’t opening until October 1st (when the 50th Anniversary Celebrations begin), but today La Crêperie de Paris was serving up crêpes for Cast Members in EPCOT as a special preview of the new restaurant.
Have you had POG juice at Disney World before?
POG at the Barefoot Pool Bar
It’s made of Passion Fruit, Orange, and Guava juices all mixed together to create a delicious, fruity drink. We usually find POG Juice (sometimes also referred to as Jungle Juice or potentially by other names) in places like Dawa Bar and Tusker House Restaurant in Animal Kingdom and ‘Ohana and Kona Café in Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. But lately, we’ve been seeing some things with POG Juice have been changing! And many readers have been reaching out with concerns! So what’s really going on with this delicious drink?
If you’re heading to Disney World this next week, you’ll want to keep an eye on construction and updates going on around the parks.
