food IS a theme park
There’s no better way to say “good morning” than with a grand ole’ Southern breakfast!
Homecomin’
And, whether you’re an early riser or late sleeper, you don’t have to worry about missing out on this brunch in Disney World thanks to their newly extended hours! (Extra Munching Hours, please and thank you.)
Another brunch option is joining the ever-growing list of Disney Springs brunches, my friends!
House of Blues
From Wine Bar George, Maria and Enzo’s, STK, Raglan Road, and more (don’t forget to read our Homecomin’ Brunch Review here! HUSH. PUPPY. BENEDICT. Y’all.), Disney Springs is THE place to be if you’re looking to get your brunch on.
What better way to treat the dad in your life than with a delicious meal? If you’re celebrating this Father’s Day in Disney World, Disney Springs has some delicious limited-time food offerings for the occasion!
STK Orlando
If your dad is a steak lover, STK Orlando is offering Prime Rib specials, drink specials AND giveaways for fathers. Note that while the specials will be available throughout the weekend, the giveaways for fathers will be offered on June 16th only.

Grand Floridian Cafe at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa has become one of our favorite spots to dine for breakfast and brunch (click here to see why!). And one of our favorite entrees is a hack that marries two classic dishes: fried chicken and waffles (Mickey-style, if you so desire).
Grand Floridian Cafe Chicken and Waffles Hack
We’ve been hacking this dish for a while now (with thanks to Michael over at @DisneyNumNums for the idea), and the combination of buttermilk fried chicken (made with Corn Flake crumbs!) and a toasty Belgian or Mickey waffle is awesome. [Read more…]
We recently shared that Lamplight Lounge on Disney California Adventure Park’s Pixar Pier began taking reservations for an all-new brunch service. And this weekend saw the first brunch service in this eclectic spot! Let’s see how this fabulous restaurant is charming guests for brunch!

Brunch is ALWAYS a good idea… especially in Disney World.
Raglan Road
With locations like Wine Bar George serving Dole Whip Mimosas and the Rise ‘n Shine Brunch at Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’, we’ve happily hopped on the brunch bandwagon. And now…Raglan Road has added a new mouth-watering option to their brunch menu!
We’re back at Wine Bar George in Disney Springs!
Wine Bar George by Master Sommelier George Miliotes opened its doors last May and has been gaining dedicated fans ever since. Wine Bar George has a reputation for offering an upscale yet welcoming and comfortable experience to all guests from the educated wine lover to the novice just looking to learn about which wines they might enjoy.
But it’s not just wine that’s brought people through the doors. With Chef Ron Rupert at the helm of the kitchen, the food has been remarkable from the get-go, too, serving everything from decadent cheese boards to Crispy Mac and Cheese Bites to Steak Frites and more.
And our visit today, in fact, is to check out an entirely new menu. Because Wine Bar George is now serving BRUNCH!
Wine Bar George
On Saturdays and Sundays from 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM, the new Wine Country Brunch is taking place.
Because we’re focusing on the new Brunch, our tour will be brief. (You can take a full photo tour of Wine Bar George here). [Read more…]
The Grand Floridian Cafe in Walt Disney World’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is known for its relatively understated decor (free of Disney characters and over-the-top styling) and its relaxing atmosphere. But there’s one thing here that’s not at all understated: the food!

Last fall, I shared the Lobster Thermidor and the Floridian Pancakes, both of which were fantastic, and just a couple of months ago we let you in on a little chicken-and-waffles hack.
We love a good Disney food hack — especially when it combines a duo of our favorite things. And today we’ve got a combo brought to us by Disney Food Blog reader Michael over at @DisneyNumNums! Join us at the Grand Floridian Cafe — and bring your stretchy pants!

Why? Because Michael tells us that if you start with the Grand Floridian Cafe’s Buttermilk Fried Chicken…
Buttermilk Fried Chicken at Grand Floridian Cafe
…you can end up with some killer Chicken and Waffles — with a Mickey Waffle, no less!
Chicken and Waffles
What, what?! In order to make this happen, all you have to do is request a waffle instead of the Crispy Potatoes, Kale, and Bacon that the chicken usually comes with!
You’ll get a choice between a Belgian Waffle and the Mickey Waffle — and you get to keep that Sriracha-Honey Drizzle (and get more on the side, if you want!)!
Chicken and Waffles!
The server also brought hot maple syrup, butter, and ketchup — just in case you want to change things up a little! How fun is this?! Many thanks to Michael for sharing with us!
