food IS a theme park
It’s no secret that we love the Cake Bake Shop at Disney World. The restaurant and bakery serve high-quality meals and treats on the gorgeous BoardWalk of Crescent Lake!
Snickerdoodle Cheesecake Bar
One of our favorite treats from Cake Bake is a fall-exclusive treat, and it was just announced that the Snickerdoodle Cheesecake Bar is BACK!
Believe it or not, the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival is just around the corner. The beloved festival begins on August 27th and runs through November 21st, so we’ll get a lot of time to dig into all the dishes. Which is good, cause we want everything in the cheese crawl!

If you love cheese, you’re going to want to check out the festival’s cheese crawl, Emile’s Fromage Montage. Not only does it let you try cheese dishes from around the world, but you can also earn a prize. It’s a win-win situation!
When it comes to Disney World, there are plenty of loopholes — some work, while others wish they did.
Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom
We’ve spotted a loophole that actually WORKS in Disney World for guests using the Disney Dining Plan, specifically families with kids. And this loophole makes your Disney Dining Plan well worth it!
As if we didn’t get enough major news during D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event this past weekend, there’s MORE news out of Disneyland Resort you won’t want to miss.
Disney California Adventure
Disney gave us a look at the new Avatar Land and Avengers Campus expansion coming to Disney California Adventure during the event this weekend, but now there’s another announcement about the park — a new kiosk is on its way!
Disney World dining opinions can get weirdly personal. Tell someone you don’t like their favorite restaurant, and suddenly you’re defending yourself like you just insulted their grandmother’s famous recipe. We know. We have strong Disney food opinions here, too.
Mac and Cheese
So naturally, we decided to stir the pot. We asked our readers which Disney World restaurants they were DONE spending money on in 2026. Maybe the food had slipped. Maybe the price finally crossed the line from “vacation splurge” into “what exactly am I paying for here?” Maybe one disastrous meal was enough. And BOY, did people have answers.
When we’re at Disney Springs, we love grabbing a bite to eat at City Works Eatery & Pour House. Nothing beats burgers and fries with more than 80 craft beers from around the world on tap!

We’re always coming back for their Chef Selects menu, a rotating limited-time selection of two drinks and two food items. City Works just released the new Chef Selects items for this fall, and we’re RUNNING to Disney Springs to try them!
When we’re at EPCOT, we love hitting GEO-82, the iconic bar inside Spaceship Earth! It has great drinks, tasty snacks, and an intimate, adults-only atmosphere.
Clarified Bee’s Knees at GEO-82
But just when we thought the lounge couldn’t get better, something big at GEO-82 just got a massive upgrade!
Who wants to go to the Four Seasons Orlando? Meeeeee! The Four Seasons Resort Orlando is located on Disney World property inside the Golden Oak neighborhood, but it’s not owned by Disney. They have some great restaurants there that we love, including Capa and Ravello.
Four Seasons Orlando
Even though these restaurants aren’t owned by Disney, Disney just rolled out a major My Disney Experience app update that will make dining there ten times easier if a Four Seasons spot is on your bucket list!
If you’ve ever ordered your favorite Starbucks drink in Disney World only to look at your receipt and go, “It’s only that much?!” You’re not alone! I’m a former Disney World Starbucks barista, and a customer would say that every hour, without fail.
Starbucks
It’s a not-so-hidden secret that Starbucks drinks are cheaper inside Disney World than at your local Starbucks. But why does it cost less?
Spooky season has arrived at Magic Kingdom, and now fall treats are popping up at other parks around Disney World!
What’s this?!
We recently went to Disney’s Hollywood Studios because we heard about a new treat that had arrived for the Halloween season, and it sounded scary good! As avid Disney food lovers, you know we couldn’t wait to go grab it. Of course, we also couldn’t go eating it and not tell you all our thoughts.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
