Greetings from Disney Springs!
Dole Whip Nachos in Disney Springs
Walt Disney World’s shopping and dining district surprised and impressed on our most recent visit with some new eats… and we may have picked up a favorite standby, while we were at it (because Dole Whip Nachos are always a good idea). But there’s plenty of new merchandise to check out, too, along with a construction update to share.
Let’s dive in!
Disney Springs Food Updates
Earl of Sandwich
It’s always a good day to stop by the Earl of Sandwich in the Marketplace.
Earl of Sandwich Beefy Mac and Cheese Sandwich
But that’s most certainly true now that the new Beefy Mac and Cheesy Sandwich has hit the scene!
Beefy Mac and Cheese Sandwich
Roast beef, mac and cheese(!!), and MORE CHEESE make up this noteworthy limited-time offering.

The Daily Poutine
But that’s not all when it comes to new savory snacking in the Springs. We visited The Daily Poutine, too.

Because THAT’s where they’re now serving up the new Butter Chicken Poutine…. WHAAAAT?!?
Butter Chicken Poutine
YES! French Fries, Tomato Curry Sauce, Chicken, and Paneer Cheese make up this unexpected, limited-time offering. What will they think of next? We can’t wait to see… and TASTE!

Gideon’s Bakehouse
The new Gideon’s Bakehouse is welcoming guests once again!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
This highly-anticipated cookie and cake eatery soft-opened for a time at the very end of 2020 in The Landing. After taking some time in a brief closure to prepare in full for the official Grand Opening this Saturday, the spot has reopened again TODAY.
Cinnamon Salted Caramel Double Frosted Cake
And we’ve got the MASSIVE CAKE SLICE to prove it!

Marketplace Snacks
Ok, so the Dole Whip Nachos are not new.
Dole Whip Nachos
They’ve been serving this dish up at Marketplace Snacks for a while now. But since we couldn’t resist stopping by to pick up a batch…

… we just thought we’d provide a friendly reminder that DOLE WHIP NACHOS EXIST. You’re welcome. ;-D

Disney Springs Construction Update
M&M’s Store
Things have certainly BRIGHTENED UP on the West Side as of our last visit to the site for the upcoming M&M’s Store!
M&M’s Store
That completely vivid and recognizable M&M YELLOW is now gracing part of the exterior thanks to a recent paint job.
