If you have your heart set on eating something specific in Disney World, we always recommend one thing: check the restaurant menu.

That’s because menu changes happen ALL the time: new foods get added and old favorites disappear. Prices go up, and sometimes they even go down. That’s why we take a look at Disney World restaurant menus every week: to help YOU keep track of those changes!

So let’s take a look at the Disney World restaurant menu changes this week!

Magic Kingdom

Crystal Palace

Now that character dining has returned to Crystal Palace, the price of the buffet has increased. For lunch and dinner, the buffet is now $59 per adult and $38 per child — before, it was $39 per adult and $23 per child.

Characters will be returning to breakfast on October 25th. The buffet will cost $45 per adult and $29 per child. Previously, the price was $42 per adult and $27 per child.

We’ll say it again — if you’re worried that a Disney World menu change might leave you without your favorite food (or leave you with sticker shock at a price increase), be sure to look at the menus before your trip — you can do this on the My Disney Experience app or on the Disney World website. We’ll also keep reporting on menu changes!

Once you’re sure about what you want to eat, be sure to make those advance dining reservations as early as you can, which is 60 days before the first day of your trip!

We’re constantly looking for unique Disney items.

Disney snacks, birds, hotels — you can find interesting merchandise inspired by just about anything. But belongings from the late actress, Betty White, are being auctioned off, and these Disney items are as unique as it gets.

Julien’s Auctions in Beverly Hills is auctioning off Betty White’s belongings both online and in-person. The auction is taking place September 23rd-25th and there are toooons of interesting Disney items in the mix. So, of course, most of these items have already been sold.

We’ll start off with the Waterford Crystal Mickey Mouse Statue! This figurine belonged to Betty White and was inspired by The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. It has “Waterford” engraved on the bottom of the base, as well as “1996 Official Disneyana Convention.” It was estimated at $300-$500 and sold for $2,560.

They also sold her 1998 Disney D23 Event-Worn Jacket. She wore this jacket while being recognized by Bob Iger, former Disney CEO, for her work in television at the 2009 D23 Expo. This item was estimated at $200-$300 and sold for $3,840.

Another unique item is the Disney-MGM Studios Mickey “Outstanding Contribution to Television Trophy.” This trophy was presented to Betty White in 1989 and features Mickey atop a wooden base. It was estimated at $500-$700 and sold for $7,680.

And take a look at the Vintage Name Tags. They are 3 name tags personally owned by Betty White. Two of them are pinbacks, while the other is a plaque. They were estimated at $200-$300 and sold for $2,880.

And those are just some of the unique Disney items we found at the auction. You can search through the entire catalog here.

Welcome to Magic Kingdom! The home of many things — nostalgic rides, magical parades, wonderful snacks, and so much more.

We’re always on the lookout for new snacks in Disney so we can review them and tell you what they’re like. We headed over to Pinocchio Village Haus to try out a flatbread on their menu, and we were pleasantly surprised!

The Chicken Souvlaki Flatbread is currently available for $11.99 over at Pinocchio Village Haus. It’s a regular flatbread with marinated chicken, tomatoes, cucumber, and tzatziki on top.

Our reporter admitted that she was a little weary of this one, but was pleasantly surprised! The flatbread was cooked well but the chicken is the star! It’s marinated, tender, and has a great taste. The toppings work well together and make it a light and somewhat refreshing meal on a hot day. It’s not as heavy as some other Disney flatbreads can be.

However, there was a lot of onion and cucumber, especially in the center of the flatbread, so if you’re not a fan of those flavors, this likely isn’t for you. But if you want a filling meal that isn’t going to sit heavy in your stomach and you enjoy the lighter taste of fresh veggies, this may be the item is a great option!

When we stopped by the Coca-Cola Store Rooftop Bar today in Disney Springs, we noticed that all alcohol has been removed from the menu.

The rooftop bar was known for serving cocktails featuring Coca-Cola products, such as “Spiked Vanilla Coke” or “Blackberry Fresca Paloma”. Now those beverages are no longer available.

A cast member at the location told us that “Coke just decided not to renew the liquor license.”

The Habanero Lime Fresca is the featured beverage right now.

The menu now centers around Coca-Cola products with no mention of alcohol.

The Coca-Cola Freestyle machines are also down currently.

Will the elimination of liquor from the menu keep you from visiting this bar next time you’re in Disney Springs? Let us know in the comments.
