food IS a theme park
Universal Helios Grand Hotel has officially opened!
Look at that VIEW!
This brand-new resort is the third resort that was built specifically for the Epic Universe expansion. Both Universal Stella Nova and Terra Luna Resort opened a bit earlier. There are plenty of places to grab a bite to eat at Helios Grand Hotel, and we are taking you along for a meal at Lotus Lagoon!
Just a short walk or monorail stop from Magic Kingdom is Disney’s Contemporary Resort, which has amazing meal options like Steakhouse 71 (home to one of our favorite brunches) and California Grill (featuring a rooftop patio with fireworks views!). But we’re not here to talk about those popular restaurants today. Instead, we’re visiting a hidden gem at Bay Lake Tower — the Cove Bar at the pool!
Cove Bar
Cove Bar is located right by the pool at Bay Lake Tower and offers specialty cocktails, beer, wine, wraps, and salads. If you’re staying at the resort, we recommend grabbing a bite and enjoying the sunshine! Let’s take a peek at the menu, shall we?
When you are in the mood for some New Orleans vibes, there is no better place to go than Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter. There are lots of fun decorations, and of course BEIGNETS!
Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter
However, before we all get too excited, we aren’t headed to get beignets. In fact, where we are going, they don’t even serve beignets. GASP!
Sometimes when you stay at some of the largest Disney World hotels, you want to find food nearby … especially if you’re REALLY hungry.
Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort
We’ve recently seen upgrades to Disney World hotel pool bars and lounge menus, but how do some of the hotels that haven’t seen changes to their menu lately compare? [Read more…]
Planning a Disney World vacation means facing some difficult decisions.
All-Star Sports Resort
When should you go? Where should you stay? And most importantly — where should you eat? We’ve been bringing you our complete guides to eating at the Disney World resorts, and now it’s time to take a look at everything that Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort has to offer!
Disney World is constantly getting new snacks, drinks, and menu items!
The Drop Off
In the past few months alone, we’ve seen new snacks for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary, multiple menu overhauls at restaurants, and plenty of new treats “just because.” One place where you can often count on new additions is at The Drop Off Pool Bar at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, and recently, we found a new drink there that we think our readers are going to be VERY interested in!
Hey, you! Yeah, you! We’re stopping by a SECRET bar in Disney World for lunch, and you’re gonna want to join us.
Cabana Bar and Beach Club Spread
Okay, okay, maybe it’s not so secret — but it’s certainly not mainstream! We’re swinging over to the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotel to pay a visit to Cabana Bar and Beach Club, a surprisingly swanky and relaxing spot.
Wow! WHAT. A. MONTH.
Magic Kingdom
It seems that every month that passes has more and more BIG news. In this month alone, we saw major health and safety measures phase-out, a fan-favorite show came back, and we got information on what Halloween will look like at Disney World this year! So let’s dive into the BIGGEST updates from May in Disney World!
Disney World pool bars are the place to be lately!
The Drop Off Pool Bar
We’ve recently been super impressed with The Drop Off Pool Bar at Disney’s Art of Animation, and we’ve recently tried fun drinks from there called the Tipsy Rabbit and the Fish Tank. Today, we noticed a new milkshake that ready to party for Cinco de Mayo!
Nothing complements a day by the pool like a refreshing drink or cocktail, and luckily at Disney World, there’s no shortage of Pool Bars!
The Drop Off
Today we popped over to the Drop Off Pool Bar over at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, which has really stepped up its cocktail game lately, and we were happy to find a new drink on the menu!
