Sometimes Mondays can be really rough, even for Disney World. Today, we spotted one restaurant in particular that was seriously struggling.
Magic Kingdom Entrance
We’ve seen restaurants and rides having rough days in this park before — Casey’s Corner was unexpectedly closed for a while a couple of weeks ago, and Space Mountain went down for HOURS earlier in September. Now, a popular spot in Frontierland has a case of the Mondays.
Today — October 2nd — we noticed that the Golden Oak Outpost snack stand was unexpectedly closed.
Temporarily Closed
Despite the fact that it was showing normal operating hours on the My Disney Experience app, the Frontierland stand was not open. There was a sign up next to the window that said, “Golden Oak Outpost is currently closed. For your dining pleasure, please visit Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Café.”

Golden Oak is not always open, but usually on busier days it can be counted on to serve hearty snacks like Chili Cheese Fries, Loaded Chicken Strips, and a Warm Chocolate-Chunk Cookie.
Pecos Pico Tenders
When we asked a Cast Member about the closure, we were informed simply that it will be closed all day.
In the meantime, you can visit the nearby Pecos Bill or Tortuga Tavern if you’re looking for a snack in this part of the park!
