Disney World's dining scene saw a flurry of updates this week, with menu changes spotted at 19 restaurants and food spots across the resort. The tweaks range from small price adjustments to full-scale menu overhauls — and there's a definite lean into fall flavors throughout.
One of the more eye-catching additions is the new Cinnamon Roll Shake at Beaches and Cream at Disney's Beach Club Resort — butter pecan ice cream, spiced brown sugar, fall sprinkles, and an actual cinnamon roll on top, for $16. Over at Tiffins in Animal Kingdom, a new Chocolate Travel Cake joins the allergy-friendly dessert lineup, featuring chocolate olive oil cake, fig apricot jam, milk chocolate mousse, pistachio praline, yogurt kulfi, and basil sugar. And the Grand Floridian Cafe quietly dropped the price on its Maple-Vanilla Espresso cocktail from $20.50 to $16.50 — a welcome change.
The biggest shake-up of the week happens at Turf Club Lounge at Saratoga Springs Resort, where several familiar items have been pulled and an almost entirely new food and cocktail menu has taken their place. New lounge bites include a Pretzel Charcuterie board, Lemon Butter Shrimp, French Onion Soup, and a Herbed Grilled Chicken Sandwich. The cocktail list got a full refresh too, with seven new drinks ranging from a Pineapple Mule to a Grandstand Martini. Meanwhile, El Mercado de Coronado at Coronado Springs added three grilled cheese sandwiches (each served with soup) and a rotating daily soup selection.
Other notable moves: Erin McKenna's Bakery NYC at Disney Springs added Apple Cinnamon Rolls and three new cupcake flavors while retiring several seasonal staples; Pizzafari in Animal Kingdom added Baked Chicken Tenders to its entrée lineup; and both the Beach Club Marketplace and The Market at Ale & Compass swapped out their Lemon-Blueberry Cheesecake Parfait for a Caramel-Apple Cheesecake Parfait — a seasonal swap that makes good sense as summer winds down. Port Orleans Riverside also quietly removed a couple of longtime items, including the Bayou Hot Dog and Beef Po' Boy.
