Yep, it’s that time of year again, no matter how much we hate it.

Price increases have begun hitting Disney World all over the resort, and now, Disney hotels are next on the list. If you’ve got multiple restaurants located at Disney World hotels on your “must-try” list and have been budgeting for specific items, you may want to increase that budget, because price increases have hit TONS of items.

Disney is almost always pretty secret about their price increases when they release them, so you really have to pay close attention. Don’t worry though — that’s why it’s our job, not yours! Based on the systems we’ve got set up, we know that price increases have now hit the following restaurants, and menu items at said restaurants. 

We’ll be honest with you here, THOUSANDS of items have gotten price increases around the resort, and whatever item pops into your head first, it’s likely been increased. Here are a few of the most popular and notable price increases we just spotted at Disney World Hotels, to prepare you for your next trip:

• Specialty Character Drink at Trattoria al Forno: Increased from $6.75 to $7
• Sunshine Margarita at Cove Bar: Increased from $17.50 to $18.50
• Mickey Mouse Celebration Cake at Primo Piatto: Increased from $39 to $45
• Foot-Long All-Beef Chili-Cheese Hot Dog at The Market Ale & Compass: $14.99 to $15.49
• Roaring Breakfast Platter at Roaring Fork: Increased from $12.99 to $13.49

• Bounty Breakfast Platter at The Artist’s Palette: Increased from $12.79 to $13.29
• Mickey Cinnamon Roll at Riverside Mill Food Court: Increased from $7.49 to $7.99
• Bacon, Egg, and “Cheese” Sandwich at River Mill Food Court: Increased from $8.99 to $9.29

• Taste of the Bayou All-You-Care-To-Enjoy Platter at Boatwright’s Dining Hall: Increased from $37 to $38
• Banana Cream Pie Cheesecake at Boatwright’s Dining Hall: Increased from $11 to $12
• Mediterranean Meatball Bowl at Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory: Increased from $12.79 to $13.29
• Waffle Bounty Platter at Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory: Increased from $12.79 to $13.29

• Allergy-Friendly Mickey-shaped Waffles at Everything Pop Shopping and Dining: Increased from $10.79 to $11.29
• Lilo Smoothie at Ohana: Increased from $6.75 to $7
• Tonga Toast at Captain Cook’s: Increased from $10.49 to $10.99

We know, we know, this is never the news you want to hear about Disney World, but it’s important to keep up with these prices so you’re not caught off guard when you visit. There’s nothing worse than budgeting carefully, only to find that a snack/meal you had high on your list now costs $2 more. While that may not sound like a lot, that takes away $2 from another item on your list, and if ALL those items increased by $1-$2, you may have to cross 1-2 items off your list entirely if you want to stick to your budget.
