We’ve seen spirit jerseys popping up left and right in Walt Disney World and on shopDisney recently! Walt Disney World Fluffy Spirit Jersey In fact, eight spirit jersey designs made their way onto shopDisney just yesterday! We’ve loved seeing how creative they get with the designs — patterns, colors, characters, and more. And today, we spotted a NEW design in Disney World, and it’s FLUFFY! We spotted this new jersey at BouTiki at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. On the front, it’s got the traditional logo atop a gray-colored background. The bottom half of the jersey is a fluffy material, covered in Mickey icons! New Spirit Jersey The bottom half of the jersey was nice and soft, perfect for those chillier winter days. And the color is pretty neutral, so it’ll match with most outfits. It’s like a blanket…but in shirt form. We can totally get on board with this cozy trend. New Spirit Jersey When we found it at the Poly, it was selling for $79.99. That’s slightly more expensive than your basic spirit jerseys, but the fluffy styles sometimes cost a bit extra. New Spirit Jersey We’ll be on the lookout for this jersey in other places around Walt Disney World, and we’re always keeping watch for new styles that pop up unexpectedly!

Ho! Ho! Ho! Are you ready for some “Festive Spirits?!” The Wave entrance Because the folks at The Wave Lounge in Disney’s Contemporary Resort sure are! In fact, the bartenders are currently serving up three themed seasonal cocktails: the Santa Colada, the Mistletoe Mule, and the Peppermint Kiss. The trouble is, we couldn’t narrow our choice down to just one, sooo…. We ordered two! Peppermint Kiss and Santa Colada The Peppermint Kiss and the Santa Colada were our yuletide libations today. Festive Spirits Menu The Santa Colada features Parrot Bay Rum and Rumchata with lime juice, agave nectar, and a green sugared rim. (See? It’s FESTIVE!!) Santa Colada That rim is great indicator of how very, very sweet this sip is, and — for that reason — not to everyone’s taste. Santa Colada That said, the bartender poured a good drink and overall we found it to be a nice, strong cocktail. The flavor highlight here is the Rumchata, and it does blend nicely with the other flavors in this festive bevvy. Now let’s pucker up for that Peppermint Kiss! Peppermint Kiss Here, house-infused peppermint vodka is poured with agave nectar and Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup. Again, we have another very sweet beverage, but the taste of the alcohol was more pronounced than with the Colada. The other prominent flavor was the peppermint — it really pops! Peppermint Kiss We were, in all honesty, a little early in the day to take on this dessert drink. At night, perhaps after a relaxing dinner at The Wave, we can definitely see how this would be much more enjoyable. If you love that combo of chocolate and peppermint, this may very well be YOUR perfect seasonal sip! Find ALL of our reviews for the Holiday Season’s snacks and sips here! Each of the three cocktails is $14.00, and you’ll find The Wave Lounge on the first floor of Disney’s Contemporary Resort for a little extra yuletide CHEER (or CHEERS!) this season!

BREAKING NEWS: These Disney World Restaurants Will Be OPEN Starting June 22nd! View the full article

From the Cobb Salad at the Hollywood Brown Derby to the out-of-this-world Ronto Wrap from Ronto Roasters, there are lots of delicious foods to munch on throughout Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater at Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World But, today we’re going to a one-of-its-kind restaurant that is absolutely iconic and really captures that old Hollywood spirit found throughout the park — Sci-Fi Dine-In Restaurant! Between the incredible atmosphere and the classic burgers and shakes, there’s SO much to love here. So, what did we think about this spot the last time we visited, and should it still be a must-do for you? Find out here! Check-In Process So heads-up, we personally experienced a bit of a strange technical issue with our reservation here. We made our reservation for Sci-Fi Dine-In just like how we normally would through the My Disney Experience mobile app. We then moved the reservation for a new day and we made sure to take a screenshot of the confirmation page and number (we always do and we encourage you to do the same!), which became KEY to our ability to eat here. Sci-Fi Photo Op The day before we were scheduled to eat at this fabulous spot, we realized that the reservation was not showing up in our plans on the app! (see, technical glitches happen to ALL of us!) We spoke with Disney and they said that we had missed the reservation because it was apparently still showing up as the original date we had scheduled it for. We let them know that we had moved it to another date and had confirmation of the change. Who doesn’t love a Drive-In? (Sci-Fi Drive In in Hollywood Studios) in 2019 But on the day we had moved the reservation to, we took a chance and stopped by Sci-Fi in person. We explained the situation to them and showed them the screenshot we had of the confirmed new date. The Cast Members there were able to help us and got us in for our reservation! So, the moral of this story is ALWAYS screenshot any important reservations or reservation changes. If the system later experiences technical issues and isn’t showing your reservations correctly, at least you’ll have a back-up confirmation of the plans you had made; and Take a chance and speak to another Cast Member if the first couldn’t help you out. Worst case scenario, they can’t help you and you go on with your day. Best case scenario, you get to eat at the spot you wanted or otherwise enjoy the plans you had set! Sci-Fi Dine-In Okay, now if you didn’t have any reservation issues and just wanted to check-in the normal way, Sci-Fi is utilizing the Mobile Dining Check-in procedure we’ve seen at restaurants around Disney World. You’ll check-in through the My Disney Experience mobile app, fill out the questionnaire specifying members in your party, dietary or mobility needs, celebrations, and more. You’ll then receive a text confirming that you’ve checked in and the restaurant will let you know when your table is ready. Easy peasy! Sci-Fi Dine-In Check-In Area Once your table is ready, you’ll receive a text to head to the host stand and then you’ll quickly get seated! For a full guide to the Mobile Check-In dining process in Disney World, click here! Atmosphere We will get to the food in a minute, but we think the biggest things that make Sci-Fi Dine-In an absolute MUST-DO is the atmosphere! The waiting area in the front of the restaurant is rather unassuming (it’s made to look like you’re in a soundstage. Peek at the walls near the podium and you’ll find MGM-Studios still spraypainted on the plywood walls!), but once your host brings you into the main restaurant area, you’ll be transported to a totally different time and place. Sci-Fi Dine-In The main dining area is decked out to look just like you’ve stepped into a drive-in movie theatre. Although there are some picnic tables in the back, most of the seats and tables are contained within individual little cars! Especially if you’ve got little kids, it can be a great treat for them to take the front seats and have the parents to sit in the back. It can make the little ones feel like they’re driving the car and on their own — plus, it can give the parents a little bit of break with some time (relatively) on their own. Sci-Fi Dine-In Truly, no detail here is overlooked! The walls are all decorated to look like you’re parked outside, at night, in the middle of a drive-in theatre… Sci-Fi Dine-In …there are speakers next to each of the cars, just as there would be in a true drive-in… Sci-Fi Dine-In …and there’s a giant screen in the front showing all kinds of retro content that kids and adults will both love. The entertainment value at this restaurant should NOT be overlooked! It may not be a character meal, like Hollywood & Vine, or a meal with live entertainment like Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, but it’s still incredibly fun. Never underestimate the power of putting a T.V. (or big screen equivalent) in front of your kids. MAGIC. This is one of a few meals we’ve enjoyed with our kids in peace and quiet with little to no fighting. They get to watch cartoons while they chow down!! Sci-Fi Screen You’ll get to watch everything from cartoon shorts to Drive-In movie theatre ads for popcorn and snacks, along with retro movie clips and trailers. OH and there’s an ad for the kitchen of the future that’ll make you wish we were living in the retro-future right now! Sci-Fi Dine-In The cars are relatively spaced out to begin with, but as far as social distancing, we noticed no one was seated in the cars in the row next to us, and no one else was seated in our same car that wasn’t from our party, but there was a family sitting in the car behind us. The atmosphere and entertainment here are awesome added values to the overall dining experience. Believe us when we say, just walking around the corner and getting the “reveal” of this space is worth a visit at least once in your life (if not multiple times). Sci-Fi Dine-In It really transports you to another time — where Drive-In theaters were all the rage (although they are definitely making a comeback in 2020!) and snacking on some tasty food while watching a movie was the definition of a perfect night out. Eats Speaking of tasty food, let’s get to the eats here! The menu at Sci-Fi Dine-In is not extremely extensive, but it does have a variety of appetizers, entrees, desserts, shakes, and drinks that will likely fit the needs of every member of your party. The name of the game here is classic American-style diner type foods. The drink menu offers up beer, wine, non-alcoholic milkshakes and a few mixed drinks under the Cosmic Concoctions section! Cosmic Concoctions Apps here as simple but satisfying. Note that appetizers are a LOT trickier to share here if you’re trying to pass food between rows of your car/table with a larger party! Apps For Entrees, burgers are the star. You’ll find a couple other options but “when in Rome,” right? We tend to stick to the burgers or sammies. Entrees The Kids’ Menu is a build-your-own type situation like we’ve seen at more and more locations. Kids’ Meals Dessert options here have always been limited but they DO still have that giant “candy bar” dessert which was ::chef’s kiss.”” Desserts First up, we ordered a Coke. It just feels right in an old-timey spot like this! (Anyone else miss Club Cool in EPCOT?) Coke! But, no trip to Sci-Fi is complete without some kind of milkshake! While there are quite a few alcoholic and non-alcoholic drink options to choose from, we went with Orbiting Oreos! This drink is $16 and is made of an Oreo shake mixed with Godiva Chocolate Liqueur and a souvenir Glow Cube. Orbiting Oreos Who doesn’t love a drink with a glow cube?! They’re such a great, small souvenir and can definitely just make you feel like a kid again! Plus, in this darker atmosphere, they really glow a lot and add a lot of fun to the whole experience. In terms of the drink itself, it was delicious! Oreo shake + chocolate liqueur — really, how could you go wrong with that?! It’s not overly boozy but is a great adult way to enjoy a shake with your meal! Orbiting Oreos We started our meal with the Fried Dill Pickles appetizer… Fried Dill Pickles …which is served with a Horseradish Dipping Sauce. This appetizer is priced at $10. One thing VERY worth nothing here you probably can tell from the pictures — it is DARK in this restaurant. It is a theater outdoors at night after all! The tables in each car have a strip of dim lighting to help you out as you eat but it still feels like fumbling around in the dark. You’ve been warned! Fried Dill Pickles Dipping Sauce We really liked these fried pickles when we had them last year, but this visit…not so much. Personally, we found these pickles to be rather disappointing. We were hoping for a good crunch, but instead, they had more of a soft texture. You can tell from the pictures they’re a little on the greasy side. Definitely not what we were looking for. Hopefully, it was a one-time issue and that they’ll be back to being a crunchy delight in the future. If you’re not a fan of horseradish, don’t be too turned off by the dipping sauce — the flavor is mild and not overwhelming with that nose-singeing horseradish sensation you either love or hate. As we mentioned, when it comes to Sci-Fi Dine-In, the go-to is definitely a burger and a shake. So, we ordered a Beef and Blue Burger as our main course to test it out! Beef and Blue Burger This burger is $19 and is made with the restaurant’s Signature Blend of Beef on a Brioche Roll topped with Blue Cheese, Onion Marmalade, Bacon, Lettuce, and a Gourmet Tomato. And yes, it’s very yummy! Beef and Blue Burger We were actually really impressed by the burger! It was a really good size overall in terms of portion, and it was cooked just as we ordered — we usually have good luck with our burgers being cooked to temperature here. We also felt like it had a good amount of blue cheese to really add some delicious flavor. For our side, we substituted our fries for onion rings! These were crunchy and delicious — a great compliment to the burger. Onion Rings Pro-tip for eating at Sci-Fi: you used to be able to get some free popcorn in the waiting/check-in area at this restaurant. That wasn’t available when we last visited, so we were definitely glad we brought our trusty popcorn bucket with us to get that full drive-in theatre effect! We filled up with a $2 refill at a popcorn stand near Sci-Fi before checking in and were good to go! Nothing like popcorn at the movies. Popcorn! Overall, we’d say that, at least for us, Sci-Fi EQUALS burgers and milkshakes (and popcorn). Although there are other options on the menu, if you enjoy a good burger and shake (and maybe even dunk your fries or other food into your milkshakes, no judgment) that’s definitely the way to go here. Nosh or Not Consider dining at Sci-Fi Dine-In if: You really want to get that retro, Hollywood Studios vibe. The atmosphere here is fantastic and one of the best you’ll get anywhere in Disney World. You like some entertainment with your meal. The shorts, movie trailers, and other things shown on the big screen are absolutely fantastic and give a lot of added value to this spot. You are a fan of classic foods like burgers and shakes. Like we said, those are the go-to items here. You may want to skip Sci-Fi Dine-In if: You’re in a hurry and want to eat somewhere really quickly before running to Slinky Dog Dash or some of the other big rides. To truly enjoy this spot, you’ll want to give yourself enough time to watch the full movie and trailers loop and just enjoy your meal in the cool atmosphere. You’re looking for some really unique food or a SUPER special burger. The food here is good, but nothing incredibly special. It’s not the type of spot where you say “wow! I can’t get this anywhere else” or “wow! This is the best thing I’ve ever eaten!” So, if you’re looking for that type of food experience, this may not be the place for you. You want to be able to look at and converse with the other member of your party while you dine. As we mentioned, you’ll likely be looking at the back of your kids’ or grandma’s head instead of chit-chatting here! Overall Overall, Sci-Fi Dine-In still has all the charm and nostalgia we’ve always loved about it. The food here is good, but not anything that’ll blow your mind. But, mix a pretty good burger and fries (or onion rings) with a yummy milkshake, and a fun, retro atmosphere, and you’ve got yourself a nice little getaway. If you’ve never eaten here, we’d say it’s definitely a place HIGHLY recommend you go at least once in your trips to Disney World. It’s kitchy and unlike any other dining spot in the parks — you don’t get to have a meal IN a car booth that often! The flicks on the screen are fun and it really does feel like you’re sitting outside! Oh, and beware of the blob! Is Tiffins in Disney’s Animal Kingdom still worth the price tag?

Trying to get a dinner reservation for Whispering Canyon Cafe at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort during the first week of January and finding nothing? Whispering Canyon Cafe in Disney’s Wilderness Lodge We’ve heard quite a few of you may have be experiencing some issues in particular making dining reservations in January at restaurants located in the Walt Disney World Resort hotels, so we did a little digging, and here’s what we found out. First, we checked the Walt Disney World dining reservations website to see what reservations were available at the Disney World Resort hotels for the first week of January. Specifically, we checked from January 1st through January 9th for breakfast, lunch, and dinner at all of the hotels for a party of 2. The only spots we could find with availability on some of those days and times were basically Rix Sports Bar & Grill at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort and Il Mulino at the Walt Disney World Swan Hotel. The remaining restaurants at the hotels appeared to be showing “no availability.” Screenshot from the Disney Dining Website So, we chatted with Disney to see if they could give us any insight on the situation. The Cast Member who we chatted with advised us that dining reservations tend to fill up quickly, and to check back later to see if additional availability is released. Screenshot from Chat We also called Disney to see if we could get any more information. The Cast Member who we spoke to on the phone said that they have received a number of calls from guests experiencing a similar issue this morning. The Cast Member told us that Disney has not released a lot of the Disney World Resort hotel restaurant reservation times yet, but that they’re hopeful they’ll be releasing those reservation times soon. The Cast Member advised us to check daily to see when the reservations get released. The Wave…of American Flavors Entrance So, it seems if you’re trying to book a dining reservation at many of the restaurants located in the Disney World Resort hotels for January of 2021, you should continue to check on the dining website daily (particularly if you’re trying to snag a hard-to-get reservation) to see when these reservations get released. We’ll definitely be following up on this situation and checking Disney’s dining website to see if we spot any changes, and we’ll let you know if we do.

Olu Mel and Duffy keychains Today we spotted even more cool, NEW merchandise themed to Trader Sam’s, but it’s selling out quick so you’ll definitely want to head there quickly if you want to check it out! At BouTiki in Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, we found the NEW “In the Enchanted Tiki Bar” Collection from SHAG! But, by the time we visited the resort today there was…well, not a lot left! It’s Selling FAST! The entire collection appears to be themed to Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar. Although Enchanted Tiki Bar is at Disneyland, while Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto is the version of this cool spot that is at Disney World, it seems tiki fans don’t mind which bar we’re celebrating. All that matters is that there are tikis and all things tropical! Here’s a look at the merchandise items that were left when we visited this morning. First, there’s an awesome Hawaiian Shirt for $85! Hawaiian Shirt The shirt features lots of tikis and flowers, a mug design that says “Trader Sam’s,” designs showing that the shirt is celebrating the “Enchanted Tiki Bar,” and more! Hawaiian Shirt It’s definitely an awesome design that fans of Trader Sam’s are sure to love! A postcard was also available. The design features guests enjoying all of the drinks and fun antics of Trader Sam’s including the sinking chair! Plus, how fabulous are that lady’s Minnie ears?! LOVE. Postcard The postcard is beautifully detailed and will truly remind you of the magic of spending an evening laughing, drinking, and snacking at this spot! Postcard Send it as a postcard to your friends, or keep it and frame it in your home to start turning your kitchen into your own personal tiki bar! Postcard The postcard is priced at $5.99. Even your luggage can get a tiki upgrade with the SHAG Tiki Bar Luggage Tag! It features that same design from the postcard. Luggage Tag It comes with a chain on the back to attach it to your luggage, but true tiki fans will see this as the perfect way to attach it to your purse, backpack, bag, or anything else! Luggage Tag You can get the luggage tag for $12.99. Finally, we were able to get a look at the Trader Sam’s Charm Bracelet, which is an awesome gift for any fan of the Polynesian in general or of Trader Sam’s specifically! Charm Bracelet There’s lots of tikis, drinks, and more featured on the bracelet. Charm Bracelet You can get it right now for $34.99. Well, those are the items we got a look at today.

If there’s one park that seems to be getting a lot of attention in a reopened Disney World, it’s Hollywood Studios. Not only is this park home to the still-new and very high demand Rise of the Resistance attraction in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, but it also remains the location of Disney’s newest attraction, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. Disney’s Hollywood Studios With such big draws, a reopened Hollywood Studios has looked somewhat different from the other parks. The closures have meant some VERY GOOD things for this park and some not-so-good things. So, let’s take a look at why the closure was the best AND worst thing for Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Why It Was The Best First, let’s look at the VERY big pro (at least in our books!) that came from the closure of the Disney parks. Food Improvements Hollywood Studios has long left something to be desired when it comes to the variety and quality of food. We’d much sooner snag quick-service in Animal Kingdom or EPCOT! Sure, it’s got some gems like the Ronto Wrap from Ronto Roasters. But spots like ABC Commissary and Backlot Express are more known for serving up underwhelming theme park basics. ABC Commissary Pre-closure Now, though, the reopenings of a few Hollywood Studios locations — including ABC Commissary — have brought with them some SERIOUS menu revamps that are making us fall for Hollywood Studios dining in a whole new way. The closure helped the food in this park to redeem itself! ABC Commissary Reopening As we mentioned, ABC Commissary did see a major menu revamp prior to reopening and we were SO pleased when we tried out the new options. The new taco and rice bowl options took this spot from drab to fab. We’re calling it one of the biggest comebacks of the closure! Watermelon Margarita and Shrimp Tacos at ABC Commissary And that’s not the only Hollywood Studios restaurant that saw some improvements. Prior to the reopening of Minnie’s Seasonal Dine at Hollywood & Vine, the spot received a big update to the menu. We’re not exaggerating when we say that the food was MILES above what we had at our last pre-closure visit. S’mores Pie at Hollywood & Vine See what we mean? What a comeback! Food is (obvi) a major piece of a Disney day for us so it turns out the closure was the BEST thing to happen to Hollywood Studios when you’re thinking about dining. Click here to read our REVIEW of Minnie’s Seasonal Dine at Hollywood & Vine! Character Cavalcades We’ve touted Character Cavalcades as one of our FAVORITE post-closure changes time and time again, and we’re gonna do it right now too. A BIG plus that came from the closure was the addition of the Character Motorcades in Hollywood Studios! Buzz Lightyear at Hollywood Studios Hollywood Studios definitely has SOME opportunities to see characters — you can meet Mickey and Minnie, Disney Junior stars, Toy Story toys, and Star Wars characters; there are some surprise greetings; lots of characters cruise by during Fantasmic! — but the pickings can be slim compared to the other Disney parks. Mickey & Friends Motorcade Now, characters cruise by often in their own custom cars and we are LOVING IT. You can wave at the Mickey and Friends Motorcade, the Disney Junior Stars Motorcade, and the Pixar Pals Motorcade. So many opportunities to spot your favorite characters! Click here to see more pictures of the Hollywood Studios Character Motorcades! Why It Was The Worst But, with every pro there is a con — and in this case a solid LIST of them. Let’s look at why the closure was the WORST for Hollywood Studios. Big Crowds First off, Hollywood Studios has definitely been the park with the most crowding. Not only is it on the smaller side but it also has more dead ends and bottleneck areas than any other park. Add in the fact that it’s got two of Disney’s highest-demand attractions right now and things can start to get packed. Crowds Opening day in Hollywood Studios gave us a bit of a shock when the other parks felt so empty, and now there are weekend days where Hollywood Studios feels just like it did pre-closure (meaning: BUSY!). That can make social distancing a bit of an issue — especially earlier in the day. Crowds With the concerns of health and safety during this time, that can make moments in Hollywood Studios downright unpleasant, so this has been a pretty significant negative when it comes to a reopened park — Hollywood Studios just isn’t built to accommodate social distancing as well as the other parks. Want to learn more about why crowding is such an issue in Hollywood Studios? Click here! Theme Park Availability What happens when you combine must-do attractions with limited theme park availability? You get a booked-up park pretty often! Disney’s Hollywood Studios books up faster than any other park in a reopened Disney World, so if you’re looking to snag a Disney Park Pass reservation, you need to do so well in advance. Screenshot from Disney Park Pass Availability Calendar — Annual Passholders We’ve seen Hollywood Studios book up very early for holidays including Halloween, Thanksgiving Day, and even New Years Day. This happens MONTHS in advance, and it’s not just the holidays either. Hollywood Studios books up most weekends and even many weekdays, even on weeks where you wouldn’t expect it. Disney Park Pass Availability New Year’s Week ©Disney This con can be summed up by saying that it is much, MUCH harder to get into Hollywood Studios than it was prior to the closure. Pre-closures, you could brave the crowds in Hollywood Studios if you wanted to but now, plan wrong and you flat out might not get IN! It takes some serious forethought and planning, so don’t get caught the day-of with no reservation. Click here to learn more about the problem with Disney Park Passes. Rise of the Resistance And our final con is that, despite the lower capacity and changes to the Rise of the Resistance Virtual Queue system, it is still SUPER difficult to get a spot on Rise of the Resistance! In fact, we polled our readers and 77% DIDN’T get a Boarding Group when they tried to snag one. Rise of the Resistance When the parks first reopened, there were three potential times to snag a Boarding Group — very different from the ONE before the closures. After a few weeks, Disney reduced it to only two times with guests getting their chance at the queue once at 10AM and once at 2PM. Live Stormtroopers in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Lately, Rise of the Resistance has gotten plexiglass barriers which might help to increase capacity on this attraction but it’s still tricky to get that Boarding Group when you want one. Luckily, we’ve got you covered with tips! Rise of the Resistance Plus, Rise of the Resistance switched up the way Boarding Groups work. Starting November 3rd, instead of getting a group at 10AM and 2PM, you have an opportunity to get a Boarding Group at 7AM no matter WHERE you are as long as you have park admission and a Disney Park Pass reservation that day. You’ll still need to be in the park if you want to try for the 2PM Boarding Group drop, but this change might make it a little less stressful to get your chance on the ride. First day of this new system and, believe it or not, we scored Group 1 from our home! Crazy! Lieutenant Beck on Rise of the Resistance Overall, there are a few more points in how the closures were the WORST for Hollywood Studios, but we do think those pros are pretty great too! What do you think? Do think the closure was a good or bad thing for Hollywood Studios? One thing is for certain: this ever-evolving park is definitely still a very big draw for guests and doing what it can to keep up!

*Note that some of these offerings may be unavailable during the phased reopening of Walt Disney World. Our love for Disney snacks goes waaaaay back! Cake Pop at Magic Kingdom In fact, some of our fondest childhood memories from trips to Disney World involve enjoying a sweet (or salty!) treat while strolling through the parks! But which of these eats have withstood the test of time? These are the Disney World snacks we had as a child that we STILL love to this day! Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bars The Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bar might just be the most iconic Disney World snack — at the very least, it’s definitely up there! We’ve even seen other snacks dressed up as Mickey Bars! The vanilla ice cream with a chocolate coating is a relatively “basic” flavor combo, but it’s still delicious. Hey, there’s a reason it’s a classic, right? Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bar at Disney World So, as much as we love the “fancy” ice cream options in Disney World like the Ice Cream Martini in EPCOT and the Kitchen Sink over at Beaches and Cream, a good old fashioned Mickey Bar will always have a special place in our hearts (and stomachs!). Did you know you can find Mickey Bars in the grocery store?? Click here to see where we found them — and how they stack up to the Mickey Bars in the parks! Popcorn There’s something about enjoying popcorn in the parks that just makes it taste different. Or maybe it’s just the CRAZY amount of salty buttery goodness that’s on Disney popcorn! Either way, we look forward to grabbing a bucket of popcorn just as much today as we did on our childhood vacations! Popcorn Did you know the popcorn is actually vegan?! Yep, the butter used isn’t made from dairy, but the flavor is still on point. Plus, we can get a little extra touch of fun with the adorable popcorn buckets that Disney releases — a souvenir and a snack all in one (gotta love unlimited $2 refills on your trip too!). This Simba popcorn bucket might be the cutest thing you’ll see all day! Mickey Pretzels This treat proves that everything tastes better when it’s Mickey-shaped! Big, soft, salty pretzels are a must for us. They may not have shown up in Disney World Mickey-shaped until we were a bit older than what we’d graciously consider “young” — they did just appear only back in 2011 — but Mickeyfying and snack is A-OK in our book! Mickey Pretzel Mickey Pretzels also tend to feel a bit more substantial and filling than some of the other snacks around the parks, which makes us appreciate this gem even more! These Dooney and Bourke bags are covered in Disney snacks (including Mickey Pretzels!) Caramel Apples This dessert is super messy to eat, but it’s worth the effort! Caramel apples are made fresh at several locations across Disney World property, including Main Street Confectionery in Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Candy Cauldron in Disney Springs, to name a few! Aladdin-Inspired Caramel Apples And this treat has more than just great flavor going for it — they’re basically works of art now. No more quick dips in caramel and calling it a day (you CAN still get those more simple apples though!). We’ve spotted caramel apples in special and seasonal designs like Aladdin characters, snowmen, and even other Disney snacks like popcorn! It just makes this snack all the more fun to enjoy! Check out this candy apple that’s dressed up like popcorn! Mickey Waffles Ah, the breakfast of champions! Of course, the kiddos can’t start their day at Disney without indulging in a classic Mickey Waffle. But even now, we still appreciate the sweet, crispy goodness that these lil’ guys bring to the table — literally! Mickey Waffle at Magic Kingdom These days, we can take this childhood favorite to the next level! Did you know you can now find Plant-Based Mickey Waffles in Disney World? From Mickey, to Minnie, to Simba, and even Stitch, you’ll actually be harder pressed to find a waffle NOT shaped like Mickey or a fun character in Disney World (they DO exist…though sometimes they’re stuffed with crispy chicken or Nutella!). Are there any places in Disney World that serve breakfast all day? Our team investigated, and here’s what we found! Hot Dogs We have vivid memories of strolling down Main Street, U.S.A. with a hot dog from Casey’s Corner in hand (or, if you’re dinosaurs like some of us — J/K! — maybe you remember it as Coca-Cola Refreshment Corner!). Just like the Mickey Waffles, we love that we can also elevate this nostalgic treat by opting for one of their frankly MASSIVE loaded hot dogs! Corned Beef Hash Hot Dog If you choose to forgo the standard dog with ketchup, mustard, or relish, you can opt for one doused in fun fixins like mac and cheese. We’ve seen delightful specialty hot dogs pop up seasonally, like the Hades Hot Dog, Buffalo Chicken Hot Dog, and Loaded Mashed Potato Hot Dog (which actually sounds like something we would have dreamt up as a child now that we think about it!). Did you know there used to be a “Cheetos”-inspired hot dog at Casey’s Corner?? Cinnamon Rolls You know that awesome feeling of still being a half-asleep kid in the Magic Kingdom fueled only by excitement? We’ve been there. And we’ve also been there where our parents were trying to get SOME sort of food into us before we ran around the parks for the entire day. Enter the GIANT Disney World Cinnamon Roll! Guests can grab cinnamon rolls at numerous places around Disney World. We’re still sad that our former go-to, the giant cinnamon roll at Main Street Bakery, is no longer on the menu. BUT, we’ve managed to find several worthy replacements! Cinnamon Roll at Gaston’s Tavern The Cinnamon Roll at Gaston’s Tavern and the Colossal Cinnamon Roll at Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery both still give us the warm-and-fuzzies! But really, you HAVE to check out this Colossal Cinnamon Roll! Cupcakes Remember when cupcakes were just…cupcakes. They weren’t massive tiny works of art like we see in the parks now?! If anything, we think Disney World’s cupcake game has gotten even BETTER over the years! In recent years, there has been a huge focus on creating pretty, “Instagramable” cupcakes, and we’ve seen some incredible designs! Mermaid Tail Cupcake And while this trend has admittedly produced a few cupcakes we weren’t so crazy about, there have also been some HUGE winners, like the Rose Gold Minnie Mouse Ears Cupcake and the Monorail Cupcake! Check out our review of the Cotton-Top Tamarin Cupcake in Animal Kingdom! OG Butterfinger Cupcake A few years ago, we were super bummed when Starring Rolls Cafe in Disney’s Hollywood Studios closed pretty abruptly. We were especially concerned since it was home to one of our favorite treats, the Butterfinger Cupcake. But thankfully, we can still snag a modified version of the Butterfinger Cupcake at The Trolley Car Cafe! Butterfinger Cupcake This is another one only a few of our team members can actually say they were all that “young” when they enjoyed it — we first found it back in 2009! We might not love it quite as much as the original (give us ALLLL of the icing!), but this version still gets the job done! Read more about the new Butterfinger Cupcake here! While we’d like to think that our tastes have matured since our childhood trips to Disney World, there are some things that don’t ever seem to change — including our love for these incredible treats! So, as much as we enjoy experiencing the signature dining and inventive menu items in Disney World, we’ll always have room for a good ole’ Mickey Bar or some fresh popcorn!

While the reopening guidelines have been announced for Disneyland and other California theme parks, we still do not have an opening date for Disneyland. Disneyland Main Entrance Some health experts say the parks may not be able to open until the summer of 2021, leaving Disney and California mayors asking for a change of the guidelines. Because of the reopening uncertainty, Disney has laid off several Cast Members at Disneyland Resort. And now, it looks like there will be additional furloughs coming to Disneyland Resort Cast Members. Disney California Adventure Park According to OC Register, Disneyland president Ken Potrock announced the additional furloughs of executive, salaried, and hourly workers in a letter to Cast Members. Potrock stated “Since Disneyland Resort closed its gates in March, nothing has been more important than fully reopening and getting our Cast Members back to work.” Boardwalk Bakery He continued saying, “That’s why it is with heavy hearts we find ourselves in the untenable situation of having to institute additional furloughs for our executive, salaried, and hourly cast. We expected to be able to open our parks in Anaheim, given our proven ability to operate with responsible health and safety protocols as we have in all of our other theme parks around the world, but unfortunately this has not been the case.” Sidewalk Art Potrock ends his statement explaining that “these decisions and actions are difficult.” He promises that the company “will continue to work tirelessly to reopen the resort and get Cast Members back to work.” Cast Member We will continue to update you on the latest Disney news regarding Cast Members furloughs and layoffs.
