Ever since Walt Disney World’s shopping district, Disney Springs, reopened on May 20th, more and more restaurants and retailers have been coming back.

Disney Springs

And today TONS of spots reopened, including DisneyStyle, City Works Eatery & Pour House, and The Ganachery. But that’s not all!

Raglan Road is back! The Irish pub and restaurant planned to reopen on June 10th, and open on June 10th they did! And you KNOW we were on the scene to check it out.

People were pretty pumped to see Raglan Road reopening, and there was a line outside the restaurant.

Like other spots around Disney Springs, Raglan Road had a sign out front outlining its health and safety measures, including keeping 6 feet away from others, increased sanitization, and safe screens in front of staff.

We were seated outside at the restaurant, where we noticed a contactless QR code menu, but if you don’t have a smartphone, don’t worry — Raglan Road is also offering paper menus upon request.

Upon its reopening, Raglan Road is offering a condensed menu, but items like the Shepherd’s to Die for Pie, Fish & Chips, and the Braised Be Beef are still available.

To get a little taste of Raglan Road again, we sat down and ordered an appetizer. But before our order came out, our server gave us some complimentary Irish soda bread with a Guinness and sugar reduction with olive oil for dipping.

As for the food we ordered, we opted for the Nom Nom Wings, which come smothered in an Asian-inspired sauce with honey, chili flakes, soy sauce, and ginger sauce. We found these $15.00 wings a tad salty for our tastebuds, but when paired with an ice-cold pint, they could be pretty satisfying.

When we got our check, we were brought a contactless card reader, where we could tap or swipe our card.

Beyond the restaurant’s indoor and outdoor dining areas, Raglan’s Road retail store reopened today so you can stock up on Guinness T-shirts and other Irish pub-inspired goods.

In the store, we noticed social distancing markers on the floor, plexiglass in front of cashiers, and a sign asking guests to touch as few items as possible.

And because you KNOW Disney Springs LOVES its outdoor bars, Raglan Road’s own outdoor to-go bar was setting up, ready to pour pints and glasses of wine.

Slowly but surely, more spots are opening back up at Disney Springs, making this shopping district feel a bit more like its old self again! Seeing Raglan Road reopened and buzzing gets us even MORE excited for when Walt Disney World theme parks reopen in mid-July!

Calling All CHOCOLATE Lovers: The Ganachery Is Reopen — And S’MORES Are Back! — in Disney Springs

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 10, 2020

While there is no shortage of sweet stops in Disney Springs, there is only one that specializes in gourmet chocolate…

The Ganachery

… and that’s The Ganachery, which is now reopen to guests in The Landing of Disney Springs!

As with all of the recently reopened stores and eateries throughout Walt Disney World’s shopping and dining district, you’ll notice new safety measures in place. Beyond the signage designating the entrance and exit doors at the storefront (along with spacing markers for guests waiting outside the store when the small shop has reached its limited capacity), you’ll find hand sanitizer within the shop.

Hand Sanitizer

Plexiglass has also been installed in front of the register.

Plexiglass at Cash Register

Though the offerings are somewhat limited at the moment, there is still plenty of chocolate goodness (and even greatness) to be found!

The Ganachery

The Ganchery Menu

There are fourteen Chocolate Square varieties on offer. (Typically you’ll find sixteen, but Cinnamon and Chipotle are missing from the options at the moment.)

Chocolate Squares

Caramel Pops and Chocolate-Covered Marshmallows are currently unavailable. But the return of the Chocolate Pops include the Mickey and Minnie Pops…

Chocolate Pops

… AND the totally sweet Millennium Falcon Pops!

Chocolate Pops

And best of all… they brought Housemade S’MORES back for the reopening!

S’mores are back!

This limited-time item has made appearances now and then (for instance, it shows up to celebrate summer and was available briefly again for the New Year), and it’s ALWAYS great to see — not to mention taste — it.

S’more

If you wanna know why we’re so excited…

So, if you’re in the mood for some truly good chocolate, now you know where to go once again in The Landing at Disney Springs!

Have you ever tried chocolate from The Ganachery? Please let us know with a comment!

Review! There’s a New JUMBO Rainbow Donut in Disney World!

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 10, 2020

We can’t believe ALL the locations that opened in Disney Springs today. These locations include Pin Traders, Goofy’s Candy Company, The Art of Disney, Days of Christmas, Candy Cauldron, Ever After, Dockside Margaritas and DisneyStyle.

Disney Springs

But before we press on, we must interrupt our regularly scheduled broadcast with a very important SNACK BREAK!

We were standing right by The Landing’s Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Company when our appetites got the better of us today! And look at what we spotted in their bakery case — a new Pride Month DONUT!!!

Pride Month Donut

Donut King, a big-time coffee and donut chain, supplies all Joffrey’s locations with their donuts, so you know they’re the REAL DEAL! For $4.99 we scored this massive yeast donut today topped with a beautiful rainbow of frosting!

Pride Month Donut

The donut is plain while the frosting is vanilla so not a lot of complexity going on here. But the donut we got was nice and fresh! We thought it had a great texture and tasted like everything you could want out of a good donut DONE RIGHT!

Pride Month Donut

The barista we spoke with said they’ll be stocking the Pride Month Donut through June 28th, so hurry on down to snag yours before then! And don’t forget to swing by the Marketplace’s Starbucks to try their new Love is Love Drink which you can read our review of here!

Review: There’s A New CAKE BATTER Gelato-Filled Doughnut in Disney World?! Sign Us Up!

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 10, 2020

Yesterday Vivoli il Gelato reopened its Disney Springs location along with The Vivoli il Gelato Cart!

Vivoli il Gelato

But we knew we’d find our way back here today because it’s the gelateria’s 5-year anniversary!

We were hoping there would be something special to celebrate the occasion with, and we lucked out! Strawberry Shortcake Bombolato?!? Consider us WILDLY intrigued!

Strawberry Shortcake Bombolato

For $9.50, you get a warm Italian doughnut stuffed with the same cake batter gelato as the Birthday Cake Shake (which you can read our review of here!) topped with fresh strawberries and drizzle of strawberry sauce!

Strawberry Shortcake Bombolato

Maybe we’ve been cooped up a little too long, but have you guys ever seen a PRETTIER dessert?!? This thing is like an Italian supermodel to our dessert-loving eyes!

Strawberry Shortcake Bombolato

But good-looks aside, the Strawberry Shortcake Bombolato was like a delicious opera of flavors and hit all the right notes! We could’ve used a little more gelato but the doughnut was super fresh while the strawberries added the perfect amount of freshness!

Strawberry Shortcake Bombolato

You can find this yummy treat at Vivoli il Gelato in Disney Springs for $9.50! Check it out for yourself next time you swing by Disney Springs!

This NEW Burger Joint Has Reopened in Disney Springs!

While we’ve been surprised to find so many locations have reopened at Disney Springs today, we already knew City Works Eatery & Pour House was planning on welcoming folks back this afternoon!

City Works

That’s why we made a lunch reservation to scope the place out on the first day of its grand reopening! Come check out the upscale sports-bar-meets-restaurant with us!

City Works Eatery & Pour House had only been open for just over a month before the Disney Springs shut down. The place was pretty packed last time we dined here, but today we didn’t even need our reservation to be seated!

City Works

Instead of reconfiguring its furniture, City Walks is using signs to block off certain tables so that guests can maintain social distancing while they dine!

City Works

We also noticed a whole lotta cleaning going on! As we’ve seen at other newly reopened restaurants, condiments, napkins, glassware, and cutlery are no longer being left out on the tables.

City Works

City Works has reopened with a limited menu and they’re using single-use paper menus for the time being.

City Works

Their current beer selection is available online and we were told they’re working on getting their Weekday Happy Hour and Rock N’Roll Brunch (featuring our the musical stylings of a certain Jon Bun Jovi) back up and running soon!

City Works

We’ll be back with a review of the meal we’re about to be munching on at City Works very shortly so stay put! In the meantime, check out where we scored this basket of mini ice cream cones here!

Did you get the chance to check out City Works for the brief time it was open before the closures? Let us know in the comments below!
