food IS a theme park
There is a lot of celebrating going on at Disney World!
D-Luxe Burger
Not only is the park in the middle of celebrating all things Halloween, but it’s also gearing up for the massive 50th celebration that begins in a few weeks. On top of that, Disney World is also honoring Hispanic Latinx Heritage Month with a celebration that lasts through October 15th.
Restaurants all over Disney World have been reopening, but we’ve also spotted some NEW items at spots that have been open for a while.
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater
Recently, 4 NEW burgers (some of which are brand new, others of which are new takes on old classics) and a new pasta dish arrived at Sci-Fi Dine-In Restaurant and they’re fairly pricey. So, we made our way over there today to give them a try and see if they’re worth it. Warning: you may not want to read this review while hungry!
We are eating at Disney World every day, and that includes eating that most American of snacks, the BURGER! And we’ve had some great ones (and some not-so-great ones).
Are you drooling yet?
Some of these burgers are just UNIQUE, and some are just made so well that we always go back for more. And considering there are literally hundreds of burgers in Disney World’s restaurants, we’re putting together a list of our stand-outs, the ones we consider must-eats. So let’s get started!
White Castle recently opened its largest restaurant in the WORLD near Disney World!
White Castle
Before opening though, the company set up a ghost kitchen back in February near Downtown Orlando to give people a taste of their famous sliders. Unfortunately, the ghost kitchen had shut down just days after opening because they were completely overwhelmed with orders. But now, we have good news for you about this virtual location!
When it comes to over-the-top snacks, Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew at Disney Springs knows how to truly go OVER the top.
There’s a reason we keep going back to Everglazed…
And we’ve had some truly outrageous — and delightful — creations here. We have some seriously happy memories about trying our first Donut Grilled Cheese (don’t knock it until you try it), a donut that had a peep on it, and a coffee with tiny cookies IN it.
We spent MONTHS impatiently waiting for the White Castle to open near Disney World.
Little burgers full of joy
And when we got a first look at the restaurant just before it opened, we were so happy to stuff our faces with those little burger nuggets of joy. And it wasn’t just us, on its official opening day White Castle set a single-day record for the chain. Now that’s a GRAND opening.
Disney World has some amazing food, but there are great places to eat off-property, too!
Pulled Pork Mac & Cheese
One of the spots we’re most excited about is White Castle! This burger joint announced its Florida location (the first in 50 years!) in 2019, and we’ve been dreaming about its square burgers ever since. And now, we’ve got a SUPER exciting update!
We know JUST where to go if you’re craving a juicy burger: D-Luxe Burger in Disney Springs!
D-Luxe Burger in Disney Springs
Boy do we LOVE the eats here. From hearty St. Patrick’s Day bites to boozy shakes, we can count on this spot for a great meal. So of course, we had to pop by to give a limited-time burger a try!
Here at DFB, we love trying the latest eats in Disney World.
We love you, coconut pineapple Dole Whip swirl, so so much
From our EPCOT festival must-haves to special snack hacks, we’re Disney food pros, if we do say so ourselves. But two new restaurants are opening OFF-property that just may have us hoppin’ in our cars and driving…dare we say it…away from Disney World! And if you’re lookin’ for some good eats in the Walt Disney World area, these 2 new fast food spots just may have ya covered.
Sure, we’re excited for Cinderella Castle’s 50th anniversary makeover at Walt Disney World, but we’re also dreaming of ANOTHER Orlando castle these days — White Castle!

And today, there were some BIG updates on the first White Castle to come to Florida in 50 years!
