When Will 1900 Park Fare Reopen in Disney World? Everything We Know

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa will celebrate its 35th anniversary on July 1, 2023!

There are many things to experience at this deluxe resort, one of them being the multiple restaurants that are offered. However, not every restaurant is currently open. 1900 Park Fare is closed and has been for quite some time. So will this restaurant reopen? Here’s what we know.

In 2015, Bob Chapek was Vice President of the Parks & Resorts division and felt that the Grand Floridian was not up to standards. The comparisons to a Four Seasons didn’t befit the current state of Walt Disney World, and so it was no longer suitable as the flagship resort. But rather than shift focus to another resort hotel, the company decided to make changes.

The major overhaul of Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort began in 2019 with the Enchanted Rose Lounge, which replaced Mizner’s Lounge. It was given a “Beauty and the Beast” theme. Then, in 2021, Cítricos followed with a new “Mary Poppins”-inspired design. When the Grand Floridian Spa reopened in January 2022, it was revealed that it, too, had been remodeled. All the rooms of the resort are still being updated, and some “Mary Poppins” theming has been added throughout guest buildings.

Two of the dining locations that still have yet to reopen from the 2020 closure are both located in the Grand Floridian Resort — 1900 Park Fare and the Garden View Tea Room.

Disney hasn’t released any information on the status of when or if we can expect these locations to reopen, but given the historical trend of refurbishments and updates, when and if they do reopen, they’ll likely have a bit of a facelift.

1900 Park Fare was a character dining table-service meal, and we hope to see that aspect return when it reopens. We’re expecting to see some Mary Poppins aspects as well, to match the theme of the rest of the resort, but nothing’s for sure right now.
