Okay, so you might be planning a trip to Disney World soon, and of course, you’re probably thinking about your budget.
We keep an eye out for menu updates, which means we often see price increases on food, so that could change your budget. However, in October, we generally see a SLEW of price increases come through for nearly every Disney World restaurant on property, and that’s what we’ve got to tell you about now, those increases that have hit theme parks.
So, as of today, Disney World confirmed TONS of price increases across the resort, including in the theme parks. Numerous theme park restaurants, including Cinderella’s Royal Table, Be Our Guest, and Nomad Lounge, saw price increases.
In addition, a lot of food items across all four parks also went up in price. These food items include things like Mickey Pretzels, Popcorn, and drinks.
Restaurants across all four parks saw price increases on their menus, too. Restaurants such as Sunshine Tree Terrace, Plaza Ice Cream Parlor, and Pinocchio’s Village Haus saw many price hikes. Here’s a quick look at some of those price increases:
