food IS a theme park
There are a lot of runners who are also Disney World fans — which would explain all the cool running events that Disney World hosts throughout the year.

And now runners who visit Disney World have a new store where they can get running gear — Fit2Run has officially opened at Disney Springs!
Many reopened Disney restaurants have opened with slightly different menus or a completely new menu. But we have yet to see a restaurant serving up SEVERAL items from another closed restaurant in the park — until now!
Tomorrowland Terrace Reopening
Sure, you can grab Ronto Wraps or Chesire Cat Tails in a new place now, but we’re looking at Tomorrowland Terrace because it seems to be serving up quite a few old favorites from Columbia Harbour House! The restaurant just reopened today with this new menu, and we had to see how it compared to the original.
Although some restaurants and hotels are still closed in Disney World, we’ve seen some spots start to reopen recently!
Magic Kingdom Crowds
Hollywood & Vine, Woody’s Lunch Box, hotel restaurants, and more have gradually started to welcome guests again throughout Walt Disney World. And today, we’re headed to Magic Kingdom to check out another spot that will join that list — Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant!
This year has been particularly challenging for the travel industry including Disney. First, the company saw the closure of its theme parks all over the world due to the global pandemic. On top of this, Disney Cruise Line sailings are completely halted for the time being.
Disney Wonder
Most recently, Disney Cruise Line canceled any sailings lasting longer than seven nights due to new guidelines by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Previously, the company had already canceled cruises through the end of February 2021.
We’ve been anxiously awaiting reopening announcements for several Disney resorts for months now!
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
Some of Disney’s resorts have opened fully, like the Grand Floridian, while others are still only partially opened with the DVC sections operating. On top of that, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is currently under construction — undergoing a massive refurbishment to be completed next summer. We previously received an opening date for Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort, but now it seems as though that date has been pushed back!
When Disney World reopened earlier this year, after the park closures, several restaurants and hotels reopened with it, but many remained closed.
Wilderness Lodge
Over time, we’ve seen some spots reopen, but several are still closed. Today, however, Disney has announced when one fan-favorite resort — Disney’s Wilderness Lodge — will be reopening!
There is a LOT going on at EPCOT’s Morocco Pavilion right now!
Morocco Pavilion
Much of the pavilion recently closed just before Disney took over operations of it from its original operating partners. But this weekend has seen a lot of shops and restaurants at the pavilion reopening!
Although Spice Road Table at EPCOT’s Morocco Pavilion reopened with the rest of the park back in the summer, it recently announced it would stop taking reservations as of December 10th and temporarily closed.
Spice Road Table Sign
And it wasn’t the only thing closed in Morocco — much of the pavilion shut down while Disney took over the pavilion from its previous operators. But today, Spice Road Table was set to reopen, and we came to check out some new menu items!
One of the biggest draws of EPCOT is its colorful World Showcase, where guests can travel around the world in a day!
Morocco Pavilion
But some big changes are happening over at the Morocco Pavilion: Disney will take over operations of the pavilion from its current operating participants. And this is set to happen by the end of the year.
We’ve seen so many dining locations at Disney World reopen recently!
Sebastian’s Bistro
From Woody’s Lunch Box and KRNR The Rock Station at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to Harambe Market at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, many locations that have been closed since Disney World’s reopening are now officially back in business.
