food IS a theme park
January has been full of a LOT of changes at Disney World.
Upper Level Patio Atmosphere at STK Orlando
Disney announced a ton of changes coming to its parks, park hopping returned, and a new donut shop opened up! We also saw a TON of menu updates throughout the month, so let’s get to them!
It’s that time again — that time when we look at all the restaurant and menu updates at Disney World for the week!
La Cava del Tequila
And we didn’t have that many this week, but be sure to check out some of our reviews for some special snacks we discovered at the parks, including a Valentine’s Day coffee beverage, some yummy marshmallows, and Bubble Tea Mochi! Now on to the updates!
Disney World continues to open up restaurants throughout the theme parks and resorts.
Territory Lounge Holiday Drinks
Territory Lounge at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge opened up earlier this month when the weather was too cold for Geyser Point (the outdoor lounge and pool bar) to operate. While we did enjoy that little surprise, we can confirm that Territory Lounge will be open through New Year’s!
Get ready to get sippin’ at one of our FAVORITE Disney resorts.
Territory Lounge Holiday Drinks
Yesterday we visited Territory Lounge at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort for the first time in MONTHS. Though this spot was only open due to the cold weather, we DID get to try out their two holiday drink specials!
Since the Disney World theme parks have reopened in July, several dining locations have remained closed.
Wilderness Lodge
We’ve seen many places start to open again like Woody’s Lunch Box, and others that have announced reopening dates. While this reopening was not announced, we can confirm that Territory Lounge at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge was open to guests this evening!
Ahh, cheese: basically one of our favorite food groups here at DFB.

We have a lot to share with you this week, so let’s jump right in…
The landscape sure has changed at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
With this summer’s opening of the Disney Vacation Club Copper Creek Villas and Cabins, it was anticipated that more and elevated dining options would be needed at the already popular Resort. Hence the refurbishment of Roaring Fork as well as the addition of Geyser Point Bar & Grill.
And honestly, Geyser Point really is a terrific new spot. But today I’m taking you back to where it all started (in regards to great lounges at Wilderness Lodge): Territory Lounge. I don’t care how many terrific enhancements they make to the Lodge. This spot will continue to rank among the best lounges in Walt Disney World, in my opinion.
They serve great drinks (with lots of Canadian beer options), but even better than the drinks is the upscale pub grub with old favorites served up in new ways, and less familiar dishes heavily inspired by the Pacific Northwest. [Read more…]
Hey Guys! We’re back with another DFB Video today, and we’re getting down to the serious business of late night snacking at Walt Disney World!

The BIG GAME is almost here! We’re of course talking about Super Bowl Sunday!!
There’s only one little problem, though: you’re in Walt Disney World.
Now, normally, that would be all kinds of awesome. But when it’s Super Bowl Sunday, we’re betting that there will be lots of you looking to find a TV in time to catch the match.
But where?
Lucky for you, we’re huge football fans too! So we’ve done our research to figure out where the best places to catch the Super Bowl — or any big game, really — are throughout Walt Disney World. And today, we’re here to share them with YOU, just in time for kickoff!
They come to you courtesy of the DFB Guide to Walt Disney World Dining.
So…here’s the deal. You were planning to head over to Disney’s BoardWalk suuuuper early, and stake out a spot at the bar to watch the Big Game at ESPN Club.
ESPN Club
Um, here’s the bad news. Don’t bother.
Seating at this ultimate sports bar (yep, there are even TVs in the bathroom) is at such a premium that they aren’t even accepting walk ups. For the Super Bowl, it’s all premium reserved seating, which comes with a cover of $75 for guests ages 21 and older, and $50 for guests ages 1-20. [Read more…]
