food IS a theme park
August is right around the corner, and Disney World is changing rapidly.
Happy 50th!
There are a number of things that will be different in Disney World in August, so let’s go over everything you need to know if you have an August trip planned!
Hello, DFB friends!
TACOS!
It’s been A WEEK. We’ve been busy running all around EPCOT getting ALL the food booth reviews for the 2021 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, WHILE keeping track of all other new snacks, restaurant reopenings, and more at Disney World. And we’ve got some restaurant menu updates for you, too!
Wow — is it just us or did May just fly by? And it’s officially summer at Disney World — how did that even happen?
Watermelon Dole Whip IN a Watermelon
Of course, we’re ready for it (save for maybe the Florida heat and humidity), and we’re looking forward to all the great summer foods we’ll be eating over the next few months. May saw some pretty interesting snacks, though, including a secret menu Watermelon Dole Whipception snack, A Donut Burger, and Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls! And we also saw some menu updates at Disney World restaurants, so we’re going to get to those right now!
It’s been a fun week at Disney World! We’ve been celebrating the reopening of Cape May Cafe at Disney’s Boardwalk and trying out some new snacks!
Time for Some Ice Cream!
We discovered a NEW ice cream shop and tasted some super yummy donuts, a unique Pina Colada, and fruity potato chips! But we’re not done because we’ve also been keeping an eye on menu updates at Disney World restaurants this week. So hang on tight because we’ve got a few!
The theme parks at Disneyland Resort have reopened, along with the Downtown Disney District and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel.
Disneyland Hotel
Soon, Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel will be reopening, and earlier today Disney announced that the Disneyland Hotel will soon welcome guests again. But, the Disneyland Hotel will look a little different than how we left it!
Things are constantly changing all over Disney World, and quite a few things will be changing in May!
Do You Like to Get Disney Balloons During Your Trip?
Some Disney World discounts or deals will be ending in May, certain special holidays will be going on, a fan-favorite show is set to return, and more. Today we’re going to break down ALL the things that will be different in Disney World in May.
Hey, everyone! We’ve been doing our thing and eating around Disney World!
BaseLine Tap House
We’ve been checking out a lot of things this week, including the refreshed windows on Main Street, U.S.A., chatting with Belle who stopped by for a visit, and getting a preview of the new White Castle near Disney World! But for now, we’ve got some restaurant menu updates for you, and yes, they include some brand new cocktails! So let’s get started!
Hey, DFB readers! We’re busy eating our way around Disney World (as we do), and wanted to take some time to update you on some restaurant changes this week!
Who doesn’t love a Mickey cupcake?
So while we were busy hanging out at the Spice Road Table Bar, drinking coffee with tiny cookies in it, admiring the colors of a BRIGHT neon drink, and eating off the kid’s menu, we were also checking Disney World menus for changes and updates!
Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park are set to reopen on April 30th, and for the first time we’ll get a look at rides that we haven’t been on or seen for OVER a year!
Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion Holiday
One ride that will be reopening at Disneyland on April 30th is The Haunted Mansion. The ride closed for refurbishment in early 2020, but we really didn’t know TOO much about what those refurbishments would include. Now, we’ve got photos, videos, and more information revealing just what’s changed at the Mansion! A new (but also old) portrait? New landscaping? And even new wallpaper? Check out what the ghosts have been up to!!
Things are constantly changing with Disney. Just this year, we’ve seen changes made when it comes to parks reopening, movies being released in theaters vs. Disney+, and more.
Do You Like to Visit the Disney Store?
But, we’ve also seen changes announced when it comes to your local Disney Stores. Earlier this year, Disney announced that it would be closing 20% of its Disney Stores as the company shifts its focus to e-commerce. So, what will the future of shopping for Disney merchandise look like? We got a few more details today and it looks like some changes are on the way!!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
