UPDATED March 10, 2026
Disney has so many new ideas planned, and we are so excited!
From new themed lands, theme park expansions, restaurants, and cruise ships, there is so much in store for Disney in the future! We are incredibly excited for all the new dining locations and cannot wait to try them when they open!
Disney World
Garden View Lounge Reopening — Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
The Garden View Lounge at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort has been closed since the COVID-19 pandemic-related shutdown of Disney World, but Disney has revealed that it will finally be reopening! When Garden View Lounge reopens on March 19th, 2026, the spot will debut new touches from the Walt Disney Animation Studios film Alice in Wonderland.
The Tea Experience will present a British-style Afternoon Tea package, complete with “whimsical touches.” Customed teas will be paired with the Afternoon Tea Tower featuring savory and sweet delights. Advance Dining Reservations are now open for dates 60 days out.
Six Ravens by Gideon’s Bakehouse
Fans of Gideon’s Bakehouse will be especially excited to hear about a NEW restaurant opening later this year in Disney Springs: Six Ravens! Brought to you by the folks at Gideon’s Bakehouse, Six Ravens will open in The Landing, just a few doors down.
The menu will feature all new offerings including hand pies that Six Ravens calls Coffyns — housemade yeast rolls complete with fillings created in partnership with other Central Florida chefs. Gideon’s owner Steve Lewis also shared that potatoes, local draft beer, and, “of course, some tasty desserts,” will be featured on the menu.
Dining at Level99
LEVEL99 is coming to Disney World’s shopping, dining, and entertainment district, Disney Springs! LEVEL99 is an interactive, social entertainment experience. More specifically, it is a destination for “real-world, challenge-based, social entertainment” for adults featuring physical and mental challenges set in artistic environments.
Adding to the experience, LEVEL99 will offer dining options from a chef-crafted menu — including LEVEL99’s award-winning, Detroit-style pizza.
We visited LEVEL99 in Natick, Massachusetts to check out the eats and drinks for ourselves!

Disneyland
Downtown Disney
Hopping over to the West Coast, Disneyland’s Downtown Disney is currently under a lot of construction to bring us new dining experiences!
Porto’s Bakery
It was announced at D23 back in 2022 that Porto’s Bakery would be opening in Downtown Disney. This spot is very well known in Southern California. This bakery serves up delicious signature pastries and savory Cuban food.
At the bakery and cafe, you’ll be able to pick up “signature Cheese Rolls, Potato Balls and other favorite goodies.” But if you want an elevated experience, this will be the first Porto’s location with sit-down service and a full bar. Stay tuned for more information on an opening timeline!
Earl of Sandwich and The Carnaby Tavern
Porto’s Bakery will be taking the previous physical spot of Earl of Sandwich, but fear not! Earl of Sandwich will be getting a new permanent location.
In fact, the second floor of the new space will be home to Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby, an all-new British-themed gastropub! Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby is brought to us by world-famous Chef Gordon Ramsay and the creators of Earl of Sandwich.
In the meantime, you can still pick up some of your favorite sandwiches at their temporary pop-up location next to the Star Wars Trading Post!
Arthur & Sons Steak and Bourbon and Pearl’s Roadside BBQ
Also on the way is Arthur & Sons Steak and Bourbon, which will be a classic steakhouse by Michelin Star Chef Joe Isidori!
It will offer “prime cuts of beef, fresh seafood, sandwiches and salads, and an impressive selection of bourbon and inventive cocktails,” and will also home to a center bar.
Next door, you’ll find Pearl’s Roadside BBQ, a quick service restaurant offering pulled pork, beef brisket, smoked heritage turkey with house-made sauces, craft beers, and moonshine cocktails. And guess what?
This spot will also be brought to Downtown Disney by Chef Joe Isidori!
These two restaurants will occupy the space that was formerly the Tortilla Jo’s (and the Taqueria) at Downtown Disney.
Bopo Go!
Bopo Go! is also coming to the shopping and dining district. This is a new cafe concept that has been created for Downtown Disney specifically! Eric Wang and Philip Wang, co-owners of Bopomofo Cafe, created the new cafe to serve “high-quality, authentic boba and bubble tea” using no artificial ingredients.
The tea will be sourced from farmers in Taiwan, and the matcha will be ceremonial grade from Japan. In addition to the drinks, this spot will have light bites, imported snacks, and candies.
Disneyland Paris
Disney Adventure World
On March 29th, 2026, World of Frozen will open in Disneyland Paris Resort, and Walt Disney Studios Park will undergo a name change to become Disney Adventure World!
One of the new dining spots is called The Regal View Restaurant & Lounge coming to World of Frozen. It’s a Table Service restaurant that will offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and it really looks like royalty lives in this “refined atmosphere decorated with embroidered drapes, floral tapestries, delicate wood moldings,” and murals of your favorite Disney Princesses.
Oh, and did we mention this is a Princess character meal?! Belle from Beauty and the Beast, Merida from Brave, Jasmine from Aladdin, Aurora from Sleeping Beauty, Mulan from Mulan, and Ariel from The Little Mermaid will be featured at this new restaurant.
Disney shared that ornamental plates inspired by Disney Princesses were designed and handmade by Royal Delft, a renowned Dutch porcelain manufacturer, for the restaurant. In addition, a canopy marks the entrance of the restaurant, featuring ironwork expertise dating back to the early 19th century from workshops in Alsace.
On the lounge side of the restaurant, you’ll find the very first bar located in either of the Disneyland Paris parks.
It’s dedicated to the animal companions of Disney Princesses, including Heihei from Moana, Pascal from Tangled, and Mushu from Mulan. Unwind with signature cocktails and eats as you take in the views of Adventure Bay and World of Frozen — even during fireworks!
Nordic Crowns Tavern is a new quick-service restaurant that will be open for both lunch and dinner. It features decor “that tells the story of the kingdom through galleries of paintings and royal artifacts.”
At Nordic Crowns Tavern, patrons will be able to enjoy a customizable dining experience inspired by Nordic cuisine. The menu features 16 possible combinations that start with hearty bases like mashed potatoes or quinoa, paired with proteins like grilled salmon or Nordic meatballs, plus seasonal vegetables and tangy cranberry or creamy dill sauce.
In addition, Nordic Crowns Tavern will be home to “frosty desserts” like blue sorbet, vanilla ice cream with customizable toppings, delicate snowflake treats, and traditional pastries. Sign us up!
Disney also shared that there will be 14 brand-new food and beverage locations along Adventure Way. La Terrasse Panoramique will serve hearty bread bowls, New York rolls, and comforting hot beverages, while Café Luminosity will feature an original hot dog with four signature recipes, paired with sweet treats like cinnamon rolls.
You can also expect to see chalets and mobile carts with new eats like filled brioche rolls, stuffed potato waffles, and whimsical desserts inspired by Disney Princesses. We can’t wait!
We’ll continue to update this page with upcoming Disney eateries as they are announced, so stay tuned!
