The revitalized marketplace theme now presents an interactive pizza station, a place where you can satiate your hunger with either a slice or a full pizza.

Naturally, no visit to Fort Wilderness would be complete without indulging in their signature fried chicken! To accompany these main courses, side dishes are readily available by the pound, including creamy macaroni & cheese, plant-based cowboy beans, and fluffy mashed potatoes.

The skilled pastry chefs have concocted a selection of fresh recipes that are bound to delight. Among the new offerings are the Fort Fruity Cookie, a delightful mix of fruity cereal and white chocolate chips, and a nostalgic Peanut Butter and Jelly Cupcake.

In keeping with the camping theme, there are two dessert offerings inspired by traditional campfire treats – the S’more Cupcake and the S’mores Cookie, perfectly capturing the essence of a classic marshmallow roast.
