This week we had a chance to swing by two of our favorite Value Resorts — Disney’s Pop Century Resort and Art of Animation Resort. Both resorts received some menu updates in their food courts, but first let’s check in on the progress of that Skyliner Station!
The new Skyliner System will connect these two resorts, as well as Caribbean Beach Resort and the new Riviera Resort, to both Epcot and Hollywood Studios.
The Skyliner has been in testing mode since early-February with an official opening of date of “Fall 2019”.
Are you excited to take to the sky on this new transportation option around Disney World?
What’s New in Art of Animation Resort’s Landscape of Flavors
In the pasta area, the Mussels have been replaced by the Pasticco — a lasagna with white sauce, ground beef pomodoro, and melted cheese, which comes served with a breadstick. Buon Appetito!
If you’re looking for a dessert at the Landscape of Flavors be sure to try their crave-worthy S’mores Gourmet Cookie. Just look at this! How can you resist that perfect mix of graham flavor, marshmallow and chocolate? We couldn’t! Read our review of the S’mores Gourmet Cookie here.
What’s New at Pop Century Resort’s Everything Pop Food Court
The Everything Pop food court has been busy moving items around and updating some of their menu items. Let’s start with all those switcheroos! The Veggie Sandwich and Turkey Sandwich have moved from the Pizza Bay to Bay 1.
Bay 1 is also the new home of the Barbecue Pork Sandwich, which has moved there from the Burger Bay.
You won’t need to wonder what comes on your cheeseburgers anymore since the descriptions at the Burger Bay have been expanded on the menu.
The kid-favorite (OK and some of us adults too ????) Chicken Nuggets are now Chicken Tenders, while the House-Seasoned Grilled Chicken Breast Sandwich is a new addition to the Burger Bay. We said goodbye to a few items from the Burger Bay (and Everything Pop all together), including: the Hot Dog, Hot Pastrami Sandwich, Benedict Burger, and the Southwestern Burger.
Here’s a look at the Pizza Bay menu for your reference — no additions here!
In Bay 3, the seafood choice on the kids menu has been updated from Salmon to Baked Mahi.
Additionally, Blackened Mahi Sandwich fans will find this sandwich at Bay 3 now instead of Bay 2. It replaced the Seared Salmon, which is no longer available.
The last change we spotted were updated decorations on the Oatmeal Cream Pie — it looks so festive now!

Pop Century and Art of Animation have some of our favorite food courts on Walt Disney World property and we’re always excited to see things shaken up a bit, plus that S’mores cookie is to-die-for!
