food IS a theme park
So much exciting NEW stuff is coming to Disney World.
Disney Springs
EPCOT is getting ANOTHER new attraction. Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is getting new DVC villas. A new bakery/cafe is coming to Disney’s BoardWalk. Over at Disney Springs, a new restaurant is under construction, so we popped on over there to see how things are coming along!
Summertime has arrived in Disney World!
Strawberry Butter Bar from Karamel Kuche in EPCOT
Minnie’s Summertime Dine started at Hollywood & Vine this week in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. New menu items are set to arrive at Disney World restaurants soon to usher in the seasonal change. There’s even a new summer Disney World ticket deal available for booking. We’re also seeing some changes on Disney World restaurant menus, so let’s look at what’s happening.
When it comes to Disney World, one thing is always consistent: CHANGE.

Things are always changing in Disney World. Rides close and new rides open. New restaurants are announced and new celebrations take over the parks. We’ve already seen a bit of change coming to Disney World restaurants and dining in 2023, but here are the three best changes so far.
Disney World restaurants have a little something for everyone.
Sonny Eclipse at Cosmic Ray’s
With dozens (honestly more like hundreds) of spots spread across the theme parks, resorts, and Disney Springs, you can find cuisine for most tastes and cultures…AND in a variety of price ranges. Whether you’re looking to try something exotic or stick to your homestyle favorites, Disney probably has something perfect for you. And today, we’re sharing our picks for the restaurants that your kiddo will like…even if they eat nothing but McDonald’s!
We’ve had a LOT of Disney food news to take in this week.
Jaleo
From the closing of Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser to the big employee move to Florida being canceled, Disney has experienced a busy week. But we’re still also visiting the parks every day and keeping an eye out for new food, as well as seeing if any restaurant menus have changed. So let’s get to those menu updates, shall we?
There is just SO much food in Disney World that it’s hard to keep track of it all.
Mother’s Day Flowers Dole Whip Float
But we do our best to make sure you know all about any new snacks, drinks, or other treats that are coming to the resorts, parks, and Disney Springs. We also keep an eye on ALL the Disney World restaurant menus to track changes, so we’re going to look at what’s changed on those menus this week.
The Disney Dining Plan is coming back! That’s right. Disney has announced that the dining plan will return on January 9th, 2024 for visitors with stays at Disney World hotels for that date and later. Bookings for the dining plan will start on May 31st, 2023.
Mickey Pretzel
The dining plan has been absent since 2020, but we finally know when it will return. Disney offered SOME information about the dining plan’s return, but there are still some missing details — let’s go over those.
Forget words of affirmation, physical touch, or quality time…our love language is BREAD.
Sourdough Bread at Narcoossee’s
Is there really anything better than stuffing the delicious carby treat in your mouth after you’ve slathered it in butter or jam? (Even better if it’s hot out the oven!) Thankfully, Disney World really gets us. We’re convinced Disney restaurants have made it their personal mission to outdo each other with their bread offerings, and we’re certainly not complaining. But after trying dozens (maybe even hundreds) of breads around Disney World, we’re here to tell you which ones are the BEST!
We got a lot of HUGE food news in Disney World this week — and yes, that’s our favorite kind of news!
Heart of Tefiti Dole Whip
From getting a chance to enjoy some Star Wars-themed snacks to looking forward to new Mother’s Day treats and Guardians of the Galaxy foods, we are SO ready for ALL the food. But we’re also keeping an eye on Disney World restaurant menus, where we’ve spotted some changes.
Food shortages are no joke, and they have affected Disney World over the past several years.
Tomatoes and Fresh Mozzarella
There was a ketchup shortage that even impacted the famous ketchup stunt at Whispering Canyon Cafe. A noodle shortage temporarily took those famous ‘Ohana noodles off menus. There was even an issue with Skittles at Disney World. Now, another shortage could potentially affect food prices at Disney World.
