food IS a theme park
If you’re visiting Disney World with a big group, you’re probably dealing with all kinds of scheduling issues trying to coordinate everyone.

You might think that restaurants aren’t possible for a big group in Disney World, but that’s not true! There are a number of restaurants that are more accommodating for large groups, and we have a list of six of them that you might want to consider on your next trip.
It’s been a huge week over at Disney World!
Polynesian Resort
Pandora in Disney’s Animal Kingdom just celebrated its 5 year anniversary, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind opened in EPCOT, and we’re in the middle of Memorial Day weekend! We’re here to make sure you’re up to date on all the latest Disney happenings, so let’s check out everything new at the Disney World Resort Hotels!
Let’s talk about the most important meal of the day: DINNER. We know, most people consider breakfast to be the most important meal of the day, but can you eat mozzarella sticks for breakfast?? We don’t think so (well, unless you make them at yourself, then more power to ya)!
Dining at ‘Ohana
There are SOOOO many places that you can eat dinner in Disney World, from the parks to the resorts to Disney Springs, from Table Service to Quick Service. It’s hard to keep up with all of the options available, but luckily, we’ve narrowed down the very BEST places to eat dinner in Disney World! Now, we’re going to focus only on Table Service restaurants on this go around, because dinner is traditionally looked at as more like a sit down meal. Let’s dive in!
You might have played in Disney World, but have you ever worked from Disney World?
Magic Kingdom
We bet many people wouldn’t think of Disney World as a quiet place to get work done, but there’s actually a few hidden gems that are secluded enough. Whether work spontaneously creeps up on you while on vacation, or you’re a Disney World local heading there specifically to work remotely, here are a few places you can get productive in Disney World.
April was a big month in Disney World! Expedition Everest finally reopened after a months-long closure, Salt & Straw in Disney Springs opened its doors, and traditional character meet-and-greets returned to the Disney parks for the first time in years!
Daisy!
We learned a lot in Disney World in April, so we’ve narrowed it down to 10 things you should take away from a month of Disney World news.
April is over and to quote Mickey, “OH, BOY!” It was certainly a busy month in Disney World — at least when it comes to eating and drinking (something that we LOVE to do!).
New snack at a NEW restaurant!
With festive treats to celebrate Easter and Halfway to Halloween to price increases on several iconic snacks, there was already a lot to keep track of. But then Disney surprised us and opened up a BRAND NEW restaurant in EPCOT, Connections Cafe and Eatery. We’ve got a lot of menu updates to cover — so let’s get right to it!
It’s MAY!
Mickey Mouse at Chef Mickey’s!
April was a busy month for Disney World restaurants, though. We’ve seen a ton of more price increases, but we also saw the release of new…Halloween snacks? Yep, Disney is all about celebrating “Halfway To Halloween,” and we are here for it. But in the meantime, things are still changing on restaurant menus, and we’ve got ALL the updates from the last week of April!

Recently, character interactions at Disney FINALLY began returning to normal.
We finally got to hug Mickey!
Since the parks reopened after the 2020 closures, the COVID-19 protocol has made getting close to ANY Disney characters all but impossible (unless you love Star Wars and have deep pockets!) Today we’ve been DELIGHTED to see the return of hugs, autographs, & personal connections with the characters. Now, we’re hitting another HUGE milestone on the road back to “normal,” because traditional character dining is BACK!
Do you know what’s better than a traditional character meet-and-greet? Character meals!
