food IS a theme park

Whether you’re looking for a new outfit, more accessories, planning your vacation, or just want something cute, we’ve found your new favorite thing! After all, you deserve it!
Okay, so this post is for carnivores, and carnivores only.
Let’s eat some MEAT
Now, if you love meat, there are a lot of ways to grab some meaty snacks in Disney World. You could opt for a turkey leg (and if you do, we’ll try not to judge you). Or you could grab a hamburger at one of our favorite hotel restaurants. But if you’re craving even MORE meat, we’ll just tell you now that you need to head to Disney Springs.
Every week, we report the average Disney World wait times in every park so that you can be prepared for your next trip to Orlando!
EPCOT
Disney World wait times have a reputation for being, well, unpredictable. Sure, we can look at past data to get an estimate of the crowd levels in Disney World, but you never know what may happen from year to year.
While Disney World is best known for world-class attractions, food, and hotels, the heart and soul of the resort has always been — and will always be — its Cast Members. They make the magic after all.
Cast Members
According to the Cast Members on our team, there are multiple things the former CMs on our team wish guests would know BEFORE their next trip to the “Most Magical Place on Earth.
Disney World is filled with so many dining spots, but a handful of them will be a lot harder to book this summer!
Breakfast at Crystal Palace
Summer is just around the corner, which means V.I.PASSHOLDER days are almost here at Disney World! One of the perks Disney revealed for the event is an increased dining discount at select restaurants for Disney World Annual Passholders. Whether you’re an Annual Passholder or you’re just visiting the parks this summer, if you’re interested in dining at any of these 12 restaurants during your vacation, you’ll need to book them sooner rather than later, because they’re going to be difficult to get!
There are some Disney World lounges you visit because they’re convenient, and then there are the ones you visit because they make you feel like you’ve accidentally wandered into the much cooler, much better-dressed version of your vacation.
Barcelona Lounge
Barcelona Lounge is the second one.
Target just released new HydroJugs that might just be our new favorite water bottles for Disney! These are 40-ounce water bottles made of double-wall insulated stainless steel that keep your water cold all day.

But the best part? They all have a dual-function lid that lets you sip through a soft, no-splash straw or switch to a wide-mouth chug spout – no lid swapping required. Target has four new designs for 10 color options, so there’s a water bottle for everyone!
We finally have an opening date for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Buzz Lightyear is officially BACK and blasting off in Magic Kingdom, EPCOT just rolled out brand‑new festival eats, and we may have uncovered the best chicken tenders in all of Disney World — yes, we’re ready to defend that claim.
New eats!
All of the latest Disney and theme park news is coming up right now on DFB Guide.
We made our park reservations for Magic Kingdom on May 3rd, and you might want to do the same!
Magic Kingdom
Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin just reopened recently, and now we’re getting ready for another BIG reopening after a very…VERY long refurbishment. Magic Kingdom is going to be looking like itself again once May 3rd hits, and we seriously can’t wait!
Who else is SO excited to step into the world of Monstropolis soon?? While we anxiously await its opening, we’re taking a closer look at everything we know about the new Monsters, Inc. land so far!

In August 2024, Disney officially announced that a new Monsters, Inc.-themed land was coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Since then, we’ve learned more about Disney’s plans for Monstropolis and seen construction start to take shape. We can’t wait to finally step into the monster world ourselves, so let’s take a closer look at what’s happening with the development of the brand-new Monsters, Inc. land!
