food IS a theme park
Well, it’s been an exciting week for food in Disney World.
We ate a STACK of cookies this week
Okay, EVERY week is an exciting week for food in Disney World for us. But this week, we saw a brand new restaurant open, Summer House on the Lake, in Disney Springs, PLUS we ate almost everything from its Cookie Bar. We also kept an eye on all the other restaurants in Disney World and we’ve noted some menu changes.
Things change all the time in Disney World — sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse.
Time to EAT!
One thing we’ve seen a lot of over the last several weeks, months, and even years is menu changes! In June of 2022, some big menu changes hit a classic at Disney’s Hollywood Studios — Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant. Have the changes made this place a new must-do? Or are the new menu items something you should AVOID? We went to try it out and we’re sharing our full thoughts with you here!
You might be surprised by some of the activities you’ll find in Disney World!
The Seas With Nemo & Friends
There are TONS of things to do in Disney World. You may be familiar with options like riding awesome attractions, checking out incredible shows, and, of course, enjoying ALLLL the snacks! But not every Disney World activity is so well-known. Have you had a chance to check out these bizarre things you can do in Disney World??
Restaurants all over Disney World have been reopening, but we’ve also spotted some NEW items at spots that have been open for a while.
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater
Recently, 4 NEW burgers (some of which are brand new, others of which are new takes on old classics)Â and a new pasta dish arrived at Sci-Fi Dine-In Restaurant and they’re fairly pricey. So, we made our way over there today to give them a try and see if they’re worth it. Warning: you may not want to read this review while hungry!
As you may know, nabbing dining reservations at Walt Disney World table service restaurants often takes a lot of planning, patience, and luck. However, as we also know, things are pretty different in the parks right now!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios entrance
Recently, Disney World added a new option for guests wanting to dine at select table restaurants: the mobile dine walk-up waitlist. And the good news is that Disney keeps adding this option to more restaurants!
As we’ve previously seen before select Disney Springs dining locations and Disney World resort restaurants reopened, sweeping menu cuts are now occurring at several theme park restaurants.
Tony’s Town Square Restaurant
Just recently, Disney has shared with us which Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom restaurants will be reopening on July 11th as well as which dining locations will be available when Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Epcot resume on July 15th. Disney is offering limited menus at many of the resorts and Disney Springs restaurants for the time being. And, now it looks like the parks are following suit.
Hey cool cats! And welcome to Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
We recently were bopping around the park, crying at Fantasmic! (just us?), when we had a hankering for a burger and shake. Lucky for us, we were able to snag a last-minute reservation at the Sci-Fi Dine-in Theater Restaurant! Guess we’re going back in time, you dig?
Hollywood Studios
is one of our favorite places to be during the Holidays. Between the Flurry of Fun, Sunset Seasons Greetings, Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM show, decorations, and so many eats, and a new car entrance along with Skyliner progress there’s just so much to see and do here. Our visit this week including collecting everything that’s new in one super-post for you!
Happy Holiday Greetings from Hollywood Studios!

Hi, there! We’re back with another DFB Video today, and it’s a good old-fashioned Disney World Restaurant THROWDOWN: Sci-Fi Dine-In Restaurant versus 50s Prime Time Cafe!
Sci-Fi Dine-In
And let me tell you… this is not an easy choice. Not when we’re comparing and contrasting two of the most beloved Table Service restaurants in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. While both restaurants take guests decades back in time, the takes are quite different. Settings differ from a nighttime-anytime-of-day drive-in-theater to a family kitchen in the 50s. And the food? It’s classic comfort versus burgers, fries, shakes, and much more! So, which one is right for your family? Let’s talk about it in our latest Disney World Restaurant Throwdown! [Read more…]
Cheese, glorious PIMENTO Cheese! It’s time for the ultimate Disney food trend crawl: the Pimento Cheese Crawl! We’ve been seeing this creamy cheese pop up in about two zillion places as of late, and with good reason.
Pimento Cheese BLT
In case you’re not familiar with the “caviar of the South”, it’s basically creamy cheddar cheese mixed with mayo (or sour cream) and pimento pieces. There are some spices in there as well, and those can vary from chef to chef (or from grandma to grandma!).
So if you’re like me, and you love all things Pimento Cheesy, THIS is the crawl for you! So, let’s begin.
First up, you’ll need to start your day at Animal Kingdom. Lucky for you, there’s a lot going on over there with the opening of Pandora — World of Avatar. So it’s the perfect time to hit that rope drop, work up an appetite on Avatar Flight of Passage and Na’vi River Journey, then make your way over to the Smiling Crocodile in Discovery Island.
