Locations in Disney Springs are slowly reopening and we keep waiting to hear from our favorites.
Well, GOOD NEWS. One of our favorite dining spots in Disney Springs announced a reopening today and we couldn’t be more excited. Fried chicken and moonshine, here we come! Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’: Florida Kitchen and Southern Shine is reopening!
Chef Art posted on his Instagram this morning to announce the return of his megapopular restaurant in Disney Springs. Homecomin’ will officially reopen for business on June 17th, with hours every day of the week from 12PM to 9PM.
The reopening day should be a fun-filled occasion with Chef Art Smith in attendance to help celebrate the return of the spot! PLUS, the reopening announcement mentions the grand opening of a new patio as well with the currently-in-progress Shine Bar & Social patio pictured!
We can’t wait to be sippin’ on some shine again when Homecomin’ reopens next week. We’ll be reporting in with all of the ways that the dining experience has changed — and of course, REVIEWS of some delicious eats!
