food IS a theme park
There aren’t many places in Disney World that offer lamb, but now you can get a new dish at Disney Springs!
The Polite Pig
If you’re a fan of lamb, you’re going to want to check out the Polite Pig! We’re big fans of the barbecue spot located in Town Center at Disney Springs, so we get excited when new dishes drop at the dining spot. We got to try the new dish, and now we’re bringing you our full review.
Over the course of its long history, the area now known as Disney Springs has been home to many favorite restaurants, and that continues to this day. There is a litany of options, from massive chain restaurants to upscale eateries and local favorites, and choosing between them all can be overwhelming.

That’s why it can come in handy knowing where those who know Disney World best — CAST MEMBERS — go to grab a bite. We asked the former Cast Members on our team where they liked to chow down at Disney Springs, and these were some of their favorites.

Gideon’s Bakehouse, famous for its half-pound cookies and gothic aesthetic, is opening an entirely new restaurant concept in Disney Springs, just a few doors down from its original Bakehouse location. Set to open mid-year, it is named Six Ravens. Instead of sweets, it will feature an all-new savory-focused menu, marking the first time Gideon’s has expanded beyond its signature bakehouse concept and signaling a larger trend reshaping Orlando’s restaurant scene.
Every time we go to Disney Springs, we always find ourselves at a specific dining spot. Now we have even MORE reasons to keep going there — as if we needed any more reasons.
Polite Pig’s Signature Cocktail Flight!
We love eating at The Polite Pig at Disney Springs, especially for its barbecue! We recently went over there — not for food this time, but because they had a NEW cocktail flight — and we’re here to share our thoughts!
We’ve done nothing but think about food and drinks all week. That’s because the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival has officially kicked off, AND The Beak and Barrel in Magic Kingdom has officially opened.

So yeah, we’ve got food and drinks on the brain (but, really, when do we NOT have food and drinks in mind?). Well, while we’re thinking about it, we’re going through all the Disney World restaurant menu changes we spotted this week. Now, we’ll warn you, we’re a little sad that this round of updates saw one of our favorite snacks disappearing: the Peanut Butter Whoopie Pie in EPCOT.
When it comes to dining in Disney World, we have been covering every snack and sip for over 15 years!
A new special!

For us, one of our tried and true spots is The Polite Pig, and we just stopped by to test out their brand-new special!
When you visit the most popular theme park destination in the world, it’s not totally unfeasible that you might run into a celebrity.

Celebrity sightings are nothing new at Disney World. However, celebrity chef sightings can be a bit more hit or miss. With that said, your odds are still decent at Disney World, considering the resort is home to TONS of celebrity chef restaurants and other fine-dining experiences. If your goal is to see a celebrity chef, we recommend checking out some Disney World spots during future visits!

One of the most important parts of your Disney World trip (in our opinion) is what you choose to eat! There are lots of great options for snacks and meals in the parks, but there are also some less-than-stellar eats to watch out for.
