How to Plan Your Tasting

With items spread across so many locations, a little planning goes a long way. If you are staying at one of the value or moderate resorts, the new waffles and pancakes are worth a breakfast stop before you head out. Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom carry a heavy share of the churros and slushes, so build a snack break into those park days.

For drinks, EPCOT’s Rose & Crown and the Disney Springs bars hold many of the new cocktails, making either one a good evening stop. Keep in mind that a handful of offerings, including a few at Disney Springs and Typhoon Lagoon, are not slated to open until 2027.

Final Thoughts

This fall rollout gives you plenty of reasons to save room during your next visit, whether you are after a birthday cake waffle at breakfast or a Dublin After Dark to close the night. The spread across all four parks, Disney Springs, the water parks, and select resorts means you can sample something new almost anywhere you go. Note the locations that matter most to your plans, and you will be ready to work these treats into your days without missing a beat.
