food IS a theme park
Well, it’s been quite a week, hasn’t it? Disney World just threw a ton of announcements at us, including details about price increases for tickets, Annual Passes, and more.

Pretty much EVERY Disney World restaurant also saw price increases this week, but in addition to that, we noticed some other menu updates.
Walt Disney World offers a plethora of dining options across property. From quick service eateries to a MICHELIN Star-winning restaurant, there’s seemingly something for everyone. However, that doesn’t mean everything is for everyone.

From the countless restaurants inside Disney World’s four parks to those located at each hotel on property, as well as in Disney’s BoardWalk area and Disney Springs, there are some that we would argue should have an age minimum in place, at least during certain times of day. We know that might sound like sacrilege since Walt Disney World is a family destination first and foremost, but it wouldn’t be without precedent.
Sometimes, for the best restaurants at Disney World, you’ll have to step outside the parks into the resorts. Dining at Disney Resorts is our best dining hack to get high-quality meals in a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere.

Disney World’s hotels are often home to some of our FAVORITE spots, especially if you’re looking for more upscale dining. This is especially true if you’re looking forward to spending a romantic night out or to celebrating an event with a fun drink. Want to find some of the best wine on property?

Disney World has leaned into the chaos a little this week.
Cinnamon Apple Pie Funnel Cake from Epic Eats
For example, we found a non-caramel snack at Karamell-Küche in EPCOT. We went through a flurry of emotions when Sleepy Hollow Refreshments in Magic Kingdom brought back the OLD waffles. One of our favorite foods at a Disney World hotel was a…hotdog (okay, so maybe we leaned into the chaos a bit, too). And like always, Disney World restaurant menus got updates.
Well, it’s been another week in Disney World, just basically eating our way around, well, EVERYTHING.
Grand Marnier Orange Slush
This week saw more Easter snacks popping up (so of course, we’re trying them) PLUS the Easter Egg displays are now up at the hotels (and you should TOTALLY check them out if you’re around). Disney World restaurant menus have changed this week, too, so let’s check out those updates.
Hello from (sometimes) sunny Florida! We’ve been at Disney World all week just checking up on things and eating all the food (so normal week for us).
Cheers!
That includes a new treat from The Cake Bake Shop, getting ready to eat ALL the Easter snacks that will be hitting Disney World soon, revisiting one of our favorite restaurants in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and trying three Disney Springs restaurants AT ONCE (because that’s how we roll). We also kept an eye on Disney World restaurant menus this week, and we’ve got some changes to report.
Hello from Disney World!
S’mores Popcorn Mix
Okay, so it is like a HUGE week for food in Disney World because the EPCOT Festival of the Arts has officially kicked off. We were there on DAY ONE to check out everything the festival has to offer, including all the food booths (we ate so much, y’all have no idea). But there’s more happening in the Disney World food world, too, because we’ve also got some restaurant menu changes to get you updated on.
It’s been a great week in Disney World, especially when it comes to food.
Meal at Nine Dragons
Mostly, we’re just excited that we finally got the menus for the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, which starts on November 29th — and yes, we’ll be running around EPCOT all day eating EVERYTHING. We also tried some new menu items at Sci-Fi Dine In in Hollywood Studios. We also spent some time researching Disney World restaurant menus, and we’ve got some changes to tell you about.
Happy Holidays from DFB. The holiday season is officially in FULL swing at Disney World now that the holiday decorations are up, the hotel gingerbread displays are ready, and the first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party in Magic Kingdom has happened.

We’ve been busy checking out all the holiday snacks around Disney World, too. BUT we’re doing our weekly thing where we take a look at Disney World restaurant menus to see what’s changed — and we’ve got some updates to share with you this week.
After a long day running around the Disney World parks or when you’re just ready to feel fancy, it’s nice to have a few options of where you plan to turn. So what do you do when all of those amazing table service restaurants are all booked up but you’re still hungry? You try out their lounge, of course!
Citricos Lounge seating
After dining at several great lounges recently we decided to up the ante a little bit. Disney World hotels are typically known for great meals when dining at signature restaurants, but how well do their lounges hold up against those same odds? We knew the perfect place to find out!
