food IS a theme park
Disney World has announced a limited-time dining discount exclusively for Annual Passholders this July 2025 — and we want to be sure you don’t forget about it.
Whispering Canyon Cafe
Through July 31st—passholders can enjoy a 40% discount on meals at select table-service restaurants when dining Monday through Thursday!
Well, it happened. We got to travel to Hong Kong Disneyland to check out the huge 20th Anniversary Celebration there.

We got to do it all, too, including eating some of the WILDEST food ever (and we want MORE), seeing some incredible celebratory entertainment, and getting to meet Disney characters in their special Hong Kong Disneyland 20th Anniversary outfits. It was UH-mazing. However, speaking of Uh-mazing, we also fell in love with breakfast at Chart Room Cafe at Disney Explorers Lodge at the resort…and we think we need to fly back to China to have it again.
Well, we survived the 4th of July in Disney World and even got to eat a few patriotic treats in the process.

Of course, now that the holiday has passed, we’re looking forward to Halloween season in Disney World because the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is only a little over a month away. Yep, time flies! In the meantime, we’ve been checking out some new foods and drinks in the parks, and keeping an eye on restaurant menus. So let’s take a look at what Disney World restaurant menus changed this week.
We all love Disney World food, but have you heard of this new non-Disney fast food spot?

It looks like we’re going to have to make our way to Portland, Oregon, because a new plant-based burger joint has just opened up. This wasn’t opened up randomly; it was started by a famous American professional cook — let’s take a look!
Who here loves free food?!
Krispy Kreme doughnut
We’re constantly on the lookout for sweet deals from fast food restaurants so that we can score savings on our favorite sandwiches, get an extra chicken tender with our meal, or snag some free fries. And if you’re a fan of Krispy Kreme, then we’ve got the deets on how you can get a free doughnut!
Let’s talk about Hong Kong Disneyland!
Castle of Magical Dreams at Hong Kong Disneyland
We recently got to spend some time in the international Disney park to celebrate its 20th Anniversary! During our time here, we’ve enjoyed the special entertainment, merchandise, and more. Now we’re diving into 2 of the most insane Disney snacks we’ve ever seen, and we’re bringing you along with us.
We’re celebrating a huge milestone and it meant that we had to travel far, far away to get in on the big party.
It’s a CELEBRATION!
We just got a chance to visit Hong Kong Disneyland Resort to check out the 20th Anniversary Celebration there, and it has been WILD. We got to see characters in special costumes (and we can’t EVEN). PLUS we got to see some amazing entertainment, including a new parade, and a special addition to Hong Kong Disneyland’s fireworks show. But, most importantly, y’all…we got to see all the FOOD that’s going to be available for the anniversary celebration, and we’re still drooling.
It’s been a wonderful week for food in Disney World.
Orange Mousse
First, we got to try new Stitch treats, thanks to 626 Day. Then Flavors of Florida arrived and we got to try a LOT of new food and drinks (and y’all, we’re still thinking about this burger). We also got a look at the 4th of July snacks that will be arriving soon. Disney World restaurants were also busy changing up their menus, and we’ve got details on all the updates.
Some of our favorite Disney World snacks just got the boot— and we’re not too thrilled.
Eight Spoon!
Two popular snack spots in Disney’s Animal Kingdom have made some big menu changes, and unfortunately, the new additions don’t make up for the losses. We’re talking about longtime go-to eats that were practically our park staples — gone. Let’s break down what changed at Eight Spoon Cafe and Smiling Crocodile, and why it’s giving us the kind of vibe we’re hoping we don’t see too much more of.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we know we’re the DISNEY Food Blog, but you’ll find us driving through McDonald’s on a pretty regular basis, too (it doesn’t hurt that the world’s largest McDonald’s is so close to Disney World).
McDonald’s
Sometimes, we just want to grab a Happy Meal with the latest Disney toy. Sometimes we just crave those fries (which you used to be able to get at Disney World a long time ago). Sometimes, we just want a fast meal that’s usually reliable. Well, if you love McDonald’s as much as we do, you’ll want to know about a new menu item that just dropped.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
