food IS a theme park
When you need a quick meal at Animal Kingdom, there’s no better option than Eight Spoons Café. This small stand serves its signature baked mac and cheese with stunning views of the Tree of Life. Plus, there’s rarely a wait!
Baked Macaroni & Cheese with Buffalo Chicken
When one of our readers suggested we review a version of their mac and cheese we hadn’t gotten before, we had to try it. Their Baked Macaroni & Cheese with Pulled Pork is one of our favorites, so we ran to Animal Kingdom!
There are so many Disney World essentials that we pack for our park days. We need things like our perfect water bottle, sunscreen, sunglasses, and more to ensure that our day is comfortable and fun!
AMKEN Waist Fan
While there are a lot of “essentials” online, we try to keep our park bag necessities light so we only take what we ACTUALLY use. After putting this latest fan to the test for nearly a year, we can firmly say we won’t go to Disney World without it.
If you haven’t been to the theater recently, you’re about to book your next movie experience, because there’s a new popcorn bucket coming to AMC Theaters that is unforgettable.

Whether the franchise is nostalgic for you, you cannot get enough of the original film (or one of the others, we don’t judge if you have a favorite!), there’s a new Shrek popcorn bucket coming VERY soon to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the original film, and you’ll want to act fast, because it may not last long!
It can be so overwhelming to figure out the best places to eat and grab snacks when planning your Disney vacation.
Animal Kingdom
One of the most difficult meals to figure out is breakfast. If you decide to hit the parks early for rope drop and skip breakfast at your resort, it can feel complicated to find good breakfast options inside the parks! That’s why we’re here. We recently stopped by the Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery in Animal Kingdom to see if it was worth a visit on your next Disney trip!
The DFB team loves ALL Disney Parks, and we’ve had the opportunity to visit Disney’s parks around the world. Of course, our “home” Disney resort is Disney World, which is why we’re talking about it all the time.
Disneyland
However, believe it or not, we’ve got some huge Disneyland fans on our team, too. When one of our own decided to ask for recommendations for what to do in Disneyland, our passionate Disneyland-loving team members went ALL out to talk about their favorite things to see, do, and eat in Disneyland. Now, we’re going to share those tips with you. Warning: we LOVE almost everything about Disneyland, so this list could get long…
We have eaten at every restaurant in Disney World, but we aren’t stopping there! Even though we have dined everywhere you can dine at Disney World, we still revisit locations to try different items and provide our readers with the most up-to-date reviews. Just because a restaurant was good the first time, it doesn’t mean it will always be good. We always want to make sure you know the best places to dine at Disney World, which means keeping our reviews up to date!
Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie
We recently stopped by Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie in the France Pavilion in EPCOT to grab a bite to eat. Now we are bringing you our full review. Is it worth a stop on your next trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth? Find out here!
Well, we’re in that odd lull time in Disney World between spring break and Memorial Day. That means we don’t see a lot of new themed snacks arrive in the parks, although we are getting a ton of new Star Wars snacks pretty soon to celebrate May the 4th.
Chocolate Filled Baked Wheat Cake
However, it’s only a matter of time before we get a list of snacks coming to the parks for the 4th of July, and before you know it, we’ll blink and Halloween season will be here. But while we’re waiting for all that to happen, Disney World is still quietly adjusting menus at its restaurants, so we’re going to keep you updated on all those changes. So let’s take a look at the menu changes we spotted this week.
Cinco de Mayo is coming up soon, and if you’re hoping to celebrate in Disney Springs, we’ve got the restaurant for you!
Frontera Cocina
Frontera Cocina is one of our favorite spots in Disney Springs for some delicious Mexican eats, and for Cinco de Mayo, that’s certainly brought up another level! From May 2nd-6th, you can experience a special menu that’s only around for Cinco de Mayo, and we got a sneak peek at it to convince you to check it out before it’s gone!
After finding this essential item, refillable mugs at Disney World have gone to a whole other level…
Resort Refillable Mug
When you purchase a Disney Dining Plan, you’re given a refillable mug that you can use at any refill station within a Disney resort. They’re great and can save you a ton of money in the long run, but they’re still an extra item that you’ve gotta lug around. However, we found an essential item on Amazon that makes traversing Disney World with these bad boys SO MUCH EASIER!
Disneyland is always evolving, and if you’ve been visiting for years, you already know that what worked on your last trip might not fly anymore.

From updated park policies to new tech, 2026 is bringing a handful of changes that could seriously impact how you plan your day. We’re breaking down some of those changes and what you’ll want to know before you book your next vacation to the Southern California theme park resort.
