Magic Kingdom’s Train Station
But if you are going to Disney World for the first time in 2027, you need to think about where you are eating.
It’s no secret that one of our favorite restaurants in Disney Springs is Homecomin‘ because, well, we talk about it a lot!’
Homecomin’ in Disney Springs
The restaurant is known for its homestyle Southern dishes, like our grandmas made, including fried chicken, mac and cheese, and that not-to-be-missed hummingbird cake. But this restaurant also serves up some nice moonshine drinks, and if you know about the squeeze bottle hack, you can save money on these boozy drinks in the future. Well, now, there’s a squeezable bottle just for Disney World Annual Passholders.
There are tons of places around Disney World to dine at, but the shopping and dining district that is Disney Springs is a great go-to. Just know that when you go to Disney Springs to eat one time, you can’t help but keep going back.

This burger is EVERYTHING
We ourselves do the same from time to time, so when we heard there was a new burger available on the menu, we knew we had to go check it out, just to see if it would live up to the hype we nearly always feel about this spot. And WOW, let’s just say, this burger was so good, we think we’ll be dreaming about it for WEEKS.
