Just barely a month ago, one of our fav snack spots in Disney World was roaring back to life and filling our hearts with grilled chicken and Simba Cupcakes!
Well, things are about to change for Harambe Market, as the counter-service Animal Kingdom restaurant is going weekends-only right after the holidays!
When Harambe Market first reopened in November, you better believe we were first in line for that Ribs & Chicken Bowl! As one of the best Disney restaurants for hearty, healthy-ish food, this is easily one of our go-to spots for a bite!
It’s the kind of food we could EASILY eat every day! Which could pose challenging after the holidays, when Harambe Market scales back its hours.
Starting January 4th, the restaurant will be open WEEKENDS ONLY from 11AM-3PM.
While we’re relieved that it’s not closing entirely, of course, this just means we’ll have to be a bit more strategic about not visiting Animal Kingdom on a weekday when we happen to have an out-of-control craving for ribs. We’ll keep you updated on the latest Disney food news!
