We’ve spent some time with some new snacks this week, though, including our new favorite pretzel snack in EPCOT, some new menu items at Sci Fi Dine-In at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and more. We’re also excited about the news that a NEW celebrity chef-owned restaurant is coming soon. We also noticed some menu changes to other Disney World restaurants, so let’s take a look at those.

Happy April, DFB Readers! It’s hard to believe that March went by so quickly, but here we are.

Garden Grill Harvest Feast Platter

This week was a BIG one in Disney World, at least for food. Not only did Gideon’s Bakehouse announce a new menu, BUT we got eight new food and drinks at Disney’s Pop Century Resort (and yes, be looking for those reviews coming soon). However, those aren’t the only restaurant changes we spotted in Disney World this week. We’ve also got some other restaurant menu updates to tell you about.

Um…What’s Happening With Peel-and-Eat Shrimp at Disney World Restaurants?

By 2 Comments

It’s been another great week in Disney World.

Pimento Cheese Fritters from River Roost

We got to see the Disney Dreamers Academy parade (which only happens once a year). We drank a VERY cool cocktail at The Polite Pig in Disney Springs. We even learned about some new character experiences coming to Disney World. However, we also kept an eye on Disney World restaurant menus, and yep, we’ve got some changes and updates to tell you about this week.

First off, there seems to be something going on with peel-and-eat shrimp! We have seen it removed from 3 menus in March — at Sebastian’s Bistro, Garden Grill, and last week at Akershus. This could be a supply chain or food cost issue, or maybe it is losing popularity? We’re not sure, but read on for more recent menu changes!

6 Unfortunate Things That Happen Every Time We Stay at Disney’s Port Orleans Hotel

By 2 Comments

Greetings from Louisiana!

Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter

And by Louisiana, we mean Disney’s Port Orleans – French Quarter and Riverside Resorts! These two resorts are part of Disney’s Moderate tier resorts, which land right in the middle between Value and Deluxe. Both resorts offer great perks to guests, including free transportation, a complimentary water park visit on the day of check-in, Early Theme Park Entry, and advance Lightning Lane booking!

While we love both of these resorts, they are not perfect, as these six unfortunate things happen every time we stay there.

Well, what a week, right?

Chicken & Donut

We’ve been busy trying some new snacks in Disney World, including an Up treat that sorta made us sad. But we were VERY happy with the Chicken and Donut combo we discovered in Disney Springs. We also had the opportunity to revisit one of our FAVORITE Disney World restaurants to try out some new menu items. While all that was going on, Disney World was busy changing up some restaurant menus, so let’s see what’s been updated.

SAD SNACK NEWS: Disney RAISED THE PRICE of One of Our Favorite Pretzels 😞

By 1 Comment

Well, Disney World has certainly surprised us when comes to food this week.

Dark Chocolate Cone

First, we got to eat the Riviera Cookie Skillet at Disney’s Riviera Resort, which we’ve dubbed the “Pizookie” and it was EVERYTHING we’d hoped for. Then we scratched our head over the Dark Chocolate Cone we had in Disney Springs because its name is a little misleading. Then there was the Charcuterie Croissant, also in Disney Springs, which is just as amazing as it sounds. Now, we’re looking at Disney World restaurant menus and checking for changes.

We’ve been thinking a lot about Disney World food recently — okay, we lie, we think about Disney World food ALL the time. That’s how we got here!

We have been looking forward to the rest of the year, though, and filling you in on our must-have foods for 2025. We’re also looking forward to the EPCOT Festival of the Arts starting soon, which will bring a variety of food booths and TONS of art-inspired food and drinks (and we are STOKED). However, we’re also starting to see more restaurant menu changes come in (it got quiet there for a while during the holidays…), so we want to make sure you stay updated on those, too.

We’re Letting You in on a Disney World Hotel Pool Secret 🤫

By 3 Comments

Hotels in Disney World are known for many things — their Disney magic, free transportation to and from the Disney parks, incredible theming, and so much more.

Stormalong Bay at Disney’s Yacht Club Hotel

However, many families absolutely adore the pools at Disney World hotels and all the fun and relaxation they can offer. Some of the most iconic pools around the hotels are the Fuentes del Morro pool at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort and the Big Blue Pool at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, and while those are beautiful and bursting with fun, sometimes you want a quiet, relaxing time by the pool. Contrary to popular belief, those DO exist, and we’ve gotta talk about them.
