food IS a theme park
Welcome to another roundup of What’s New in Magic Kingdom!
Cinderella Castle
It was a stormy day in the Kingdom, but we still explored the park for all the food, construction, and merchandise updates we could find!
Come rain or shine, we’ll still be hitting the parks in Disney World!
Windbreaker Line at Mouse Gear
Except, you know, we might need to pack a few extra supplies — umbrellas, sunscreen, maybe even a jacket. Now, you can stay cozy AND stylish in the newest line of windbreakers hitting the parks. Anybody got some parachute pants and a fanny pack to complete the look?
We’re baaaack… And, with an all new What’s New at Magic Kingdom too (aw yeaaah!).
Magic Kingdom, Here We Come!
We have LOTS of construction, merch, and food updates for ya, so let’s take a quick trip to the Happiest Place on Earth.
in Disneyland’s Fantasyland is the little overlay that could. Back in 2017, Disneyland Park reimagined its historic Village Haus as part of the company’s celebration of the release of the live-action Beauty and the Beast. But the last petal still hasn’t fallen, and Red Rose Taverne appears to be a sticking around indefinitely.
Red Rose Taverne
So when we’re in Disneyland, we always pop by to see what’s cookin’ in this poor, provincial town, and recently we discovered a couple new breakfast dishes we had to try. [Read more…]
We have a LOT of ground to cover in this week’s What’s New in Magic Kingdom! We caught up with construction updates, found a delicious new sundae (and more cold treats), and noticed SO. MUCH. MERCH!
Main Street, U.S.A.
We were greeted with rainy weather during our visit, but the gloomy skies didn’t stop us from exploring and enjoying the Most Magical Place On Earth. Let’s get started!
is the Beauty and the Beast overlay of Village Haus that, apparently, became a permanent prisoner of Disneyland Park because it shows no signs of being released. The overlay began in 2017 as a promo for the live-action Beauty and the Beast film released that year, and the French- and movie-inspired dishes gained popularity right away. (You can see our very first review of the quick service menu here!)
And now we’re back to enjoy items from the Taverne’s lunch and dinner menu. So put the lid back over your enchanted rose, and prepare to belt out some tunes: it’s time to eat.

The lunch and dinner menu at Red Rose Taverne has seen a few changes since our first visit over two years ago. [Read more…]
We know that many of you planned your Disney World vacation BEFORE the Galaxy’s Edge dates were released, so we want to do our best to help you navigate and alleviate the stress of some of those crowds! If you’re a morning person then you’re in for a treat with new EXTRA Extra Magic Hours! Not sure what that means? No problemo — we’re gonna tell you all about it!
Regular Extra Magic Hours allow Disney World hotel guests to access the parks with low crowds first thing in the morning to enjoy the cooler temps, shorter lines, cool photos with fewer guests, etc. Now…you HAVE to be staying at a Disney resort in order to have access to these Extra Magic Hours. This is one of the many perks that Disney puts in place to get you to stay at one of their hotels over off-property hotels.
Mine Train
So, what are Extra Extra Magic Hours and why were they created? Well, Disney often has Extra Magic Hours, but these are typically just an hour or two in the morning or evening at the parks. Extra Extra Magic Hours are additional park hours that have been added for resort guests DAILY.
Our guess is that Disney has done this to try to alleviate some of the Galaxy’s Edge crowds since an insane amount of guests will be heading to the parks for the opening of the new land this fall. Galaxy’s Edge is set to open on August 29th, which is why the Extra Extra Magic Hours will be offered every day starting September 1. They will continue until November 2, 2019, at the following theme parks and times.
Welcome to another What’s New coming at you from Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom! Lately we’ve seen lots of construction progress in various locations, and there’s no shortage of new merchandise, either! So put on your sunscreen, and let’s explore!

Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle
(No, the castle’s not uncovered yet. A couple more weeks!)
We’re starting with food news, which includes some awesome eats from Red Rose Taverne in Fantasyland. The breakfast menu has two filling new-to-us options: Beast’s Breakfast Burger and Stuffed French Toast. [Read more…]
Yesterday we were checking out a couple of new menu additions in Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland with the arrival of the Minnie Cookie Dough Sundae at Storybook Treats and the Tangled Éclair at Pinocchio Village Haus.
Friar’s Nook Sign
But while we were checking out the new arrivals, we couldn’t help but notice some removals from a menu in Fantasyland, too… specifically, at The Friar’s Nook. [Read more…]
