A NEW Permit Has Been Filed for Magic Kingdom’s Exclusive Lounge

By 1 Comment

Magic Kingdom has so much going on right now; it’s a bit overwhelming!

Magic Kingdom

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is closed for at least a year for refurbishment, Villains Land is in progress behind Big Thunder, and there are TWO new lounges currently being built in the park — one is a DVC Lounge in Frontierland and the other is the highly-anticipated Pirates Tavern in Adventureland. We haven’t known a ton about the new Frontierland Lounge, McKim’s Mile House, for quite some time, but now a new permit has been filed that gives us just a LITTLE more information!

By 6 Comments

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again — being a Disney Vacation Club Member comes with plenty of perks.

DVC Welcome Center in Disney Springs

Of course, there’s the fact that you can go on a Disney World vacation at the drop of a hat, plus exclusive discounts, eats, and so much more. Oh yeah, and exclusive Disney Vacation Club lounges all around the parks and more! A newly refurbished DVC lounge has just reopened at EPCOT and we’re bringing you with us as we take a look around.

REVIEW: Calling All 90’s Kids! This Disney World Hotel’s Drink Tastes Like A Grown Up Capri Sun

By Leave a Comment

Ok, we think we’ve found a solid choice for a lounge or pool bar when choosing your next Disney hotel stay WITHOUT costing you a fortune!

The whole band is back together!

We’ve visited several lounge and pool bars around Disney World lately with some being clear winners with returning fan-favorite menu items but most of the time these have been at some of the most expensive Disney World hotels. So where do you choose to stay (and eat) if you’re looking to stick to a budget and are traveling with kids that really would prefer more pool time over spending hours in the Disney World parks? We think we’ve found a great compromise for you! [Read more…]

Disney Restaurant Review: NEW Menu Items and Why Nomad Lounge Is Basically The Best Place Ever.

By 8 Comments

Namaste from a very relaxed DFB team in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! 

The Tree of Life

Between soaring on the back of a Banshee, barely escaping carnivorous dinosaurs, and going on a two-week safari, we were beat! So we decided to pay a visit to one of our favorite places to relax: the Nomad Lounge!

Review: LEGIT The Best Thing I Ate in Disney World Last Week. (It Was So Good I Went Back And Had It Again.)

By 12 Comments

With so many great places to dine and drink at Walt Disney World these days, there are actually a lot more must-try spots than just about anyone could squeeze into a vacation.

Learn About:The Crew's Cup Lounge
Disney World Restaurants

So when we tell you that The Crew’s Cup Lounge at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is a must must-try, you know we’re serious. Over the years, we’ve touted The Crew’s Cup Lounge as a great place to escape the heat, and it’s still that. (Check out a review here!) But I recently ate here for a meeting after not being at the lounge for a while, and I was BOWLED OVER with what I ordered.

I can’t wait to share it with YOU! (Apologies for the badly taken photos in this post, by the way — I was at a meeting and wasn’t planning on blogging the meal, but it was SO GOOD that I had to!)

Review: Limited Time Drinks and Classics at Walt Disney World’s Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto

By 2 Comments

Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto

at Walt Disney World’s Polynesian Village Resort is an oasis of creative drinks and tiki decor. Truly: grabbing a drink here is always a fun time.

Our Skipper Host

You never really know what’s going to happen around here…

Antics in the Grog Grotto

And our Disney pal Daniel (hi, @WanderDisney!) recently visited with Trader Sam and shared his thoughts on some of the bar’s drink options.

Drinks at Trader Sam’s

The Tropical Snowstorm is listed on the menu’s limited time, seasonsl insert, but Daniel notes that all the drinks on this page are available to order all year. (So long as the bar has the ingredients, you can get one!) The Tropical Snowstorm is Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, Parrot Bay Coconut Rum, Coconut Cream, Cinnamon, and Nutmeg!
