food IS a theme park
Disney World has been seriously embracing change recently. Changes are happening EVERYWHERE, including in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Muppets Courtyard has closed to make way for a new Monsters, Inc. land. Animation Courtyard is closed to be reimagined.
Minnie’s Summertime Dine at Hollywood & Vine
One Hollywood Studios restaurant character dining experience is also changing, and we wanted to remind you about it. The character breakfast at Hollywood & Vine will be changing on October 12th.
Disney has finally announced the dates for these important character dining CHANGES happening in Disney’s Hollywood Studios in 2024!
Witch Minnie at Minnie’s Seasonal Dine at Hollywood & Vine in Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Disney World’s character dining restaurants are some of the most popular places to eat in the parks because they’re character meet-and-greet experiences and tasty meals rolled into one. One of these restaurants in Hollywood Studios actually changes themes a few times a year, and now we have the dates for two upcoming changes.
Character dining restaurants are some of the most popular restaurants in Disney World — who doesn’t want to eat tasty food while visiting with Mickey and his pals?
Mickey!
There’s one character restaurant in Disney’s Hollywood Studios that’s CHANGING soon! Make sure you mark the date so that you know when its transformation will happen. [Read more…]
We’re nearing the end of summer, and a some of us are celebrating for a few different reasons.
The end of summer means Halloween is drawing near!
Firstly, we only have about a month and a half left of that unbearable Florida heat and humidity that sticks around in the summer. Secondly, the end of summer means that spooky season is well on its way! If you’re like us and can’t wait to spend the fall and Halloween season at Disney World, then we have some news that we think will leave you even more excited than before.
We’re pretty passionate about Disney dining here at DFB. It is in our name, after all!
Minnie’s Summertime Dine
But there’s nothing like sitting down to a meal in Disney World with some of our favorite characters. From princesses in Magic Kingdom to Safari Mickey in Animal Kingdom and more, there’s probably a character meal out there for just about anyone. And today, a popular Hollywood Studios character meal has changed!
Here at DFB, we love enjoying a Disney meal.
Goofy is such a goof!
But what makes a Disney meal even better? Our favorite characters, of course! Recently, we got to see the princesses return to Cinderella’s Royal Table and the buffet return to Chef Mickey’s. Now, we’ve got another character meal change to share with you — and we’re headed to Disney’s Hollywood Studios this time.
Can you believe that in a matter of months, it’ll be spring?
Hollywood & Vine
Springtime brings larger crowds to Disney World because of spring break, and we often see new eats arriving at the parks as well. That’s the case at Hollywood & Vine, which is a restaurant in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This spot hosts Minnie’s Seasonal Dine for lunch and dinner, which changes throughout the seasons and brings characters like Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, and more to dine with you. Now we’ve got dates for when Springtime Dine and Summertime dine will return this year!
Character dining experiences are one of the best ways to meet characters in Disney World. First, you’re guaranteed to see certain characters while you’re there, and the interactions can be longer than what you might get at a regular meet and greet.
Hollywood & Vine
Two, you get characters AND food, and what’s a better combination than that? Many character dining experiences switched to family-style dining after Disney World reopened, but a lot of them are returning as buffets. Hollywood & Vine in Disney’s Hollywood Studios reopened with family-style dining, but now we’re taking you with us to see if buffet dining has changed anything at this spot!
Traditional character meet and greets and character dining in Disney World are BACK in Disney World!
