food IS a theme park
Disney World has so many places where you can get sweet treats and beverages. Some are great options, and others are not so much. That’s what we’re here for!
Riviera Resort
We recently went to Disney’s Riviera Resort to try a popular spot for quickly grabbing pastries and coffee. Whether you’re looking for something to eat before you start your Disney, need a relaxing break, or want a treat before going up to your room, this spot is a good option.
We’re all in favor of Disney getting a little spooky, but it’s better when our food and drinks don’t scare us.
The Haunted Mansion Parlor
The Disney Cruise Line got a little bit bigger last when the Disney Treasure joined its fleet. We took a voyage on the brand-new ship, getting a good look at everything the ship has to offer, including the highly-anticipated Haunted Mansion Parlor. While we were impressed by the design of the new lounge, we’re sad to say the drinks left something to be desired.
World Premiere Food Court at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort has been under refurbishment for several months.
World Premiere Food Court
Most recently, the food court was nearly finished getting refurbished, with only the coffee shop, Rialto, still being completed. We’ve been watching and waiting for this multi-month-long closure to finally come to an end, and now it officially has! Along with Rialto’s return also came some NEW snacks, so, of course, we had to go try them all.
How much cash are you willing to shell out for an elite dessert?
Amorette’s Patisserie
Let’s face it, visiting Disney World doesn’t happen without dropping a pretty penny. Sure, there are obvious expenses like park tickets, Lightning Lane passes, and lodging, but if you’re a dessert fiend like us, you can quickly rack up a large bill just on sweets alone. Some desserts at Disney World come with a hefty price tag, including a couple at Amorett’s Patisserie in Disney Springs. In fact, we stopped by to try a few EXPENSIVE Disney holiday desserts!
Let’s grab some grub at Disneyland!
Disneyland Tomorrowland
Disneyland is often regarded as having some of the best theme park food in the industry, but that doesn’t mean every restaurant is a hit. Over in Tomorrowland, Alien Pizza Planet has divided Disney food fans. With the quality called into question in addition to some concern over prices, Alien Pizza Planet currently holds a modest 3.2 out of 5.0 stars on Yelp. With all that in mind, we visited the controversial restaurant to see how it holds up heading into 2025!
Some new snacks from a galaxy far, far away have made their way to Disneyland!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland
Life Day in Star Wars lore is a Wookie holiday that has returned to Galaxy’s Edge at the Disneyland Resort and has brought with it décor, special merch, and exclusive eats. We’re back this year to try new and returning offerings and to let you know if they’re worth hopping in your speeder and traveling lightspeed to Disneyland!
Let’s go dining at Disneyland!
Naples Ristorante
The Disneyland Resort is known to have some really amazing dining options and the Downtown Disney District is home to several. One of our favorites, Naples Ristorante E Bar, recently changed up its menu so we headed over to try out some new offerings and see if this location is still worth visiting!
Disneyland’s reimagined Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree is finally open so you know we had to head over and grab a bite or several!
Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree
Disneyland is turning its Critter Country land into Bayou Country, which will conclude with the opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in November. A major piece of Bayou Country will be the Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree — formerly known as the Hungry Bear Restaurant. After several months of refurbishment and retheming, we headed over to the NOW-OPEN Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree to try its new menu and check out the changes!
A popular Magic Kingdom restaurant just got a menu makeover!
Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe
Disney World’s Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe in Frontierland is home to all kinds of Southwestern-inspired dishes, making it a popular stop among many Magic Kingdom visitors. Well, the restaurant is looking a little different these days, having introduced SEVERAL new items to its menu. We stopped by to review the new offerings and the results were kind of surprising!
No tricks, just treats!
Happy Hallow-TREATS
Halloween season has arrived at Disney World, and you know what means! Decorations, merchandise, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, and — of course — TREATS! We recently sampled some of the 2024 seasonal treats available at Disney Springs!
