We’re back with more updates from Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom officially reopened to the public just over a week ago, and we’ve been scoping out the restaurants, merchandise, and attractions to see what’s new! Despite the relatively low crowds (and wait times!) it looks like Disney is still movin’ and shakin’ because we have plenty of updates to share!
Animal Kingdom Food Update
Satu’li Canteen
Here’s some news that we’re so excited about we just had to share it first! At Satu’li Canteen in Pandora — The World of AVATAR, our beloved Cheeseburger Pods are BACK on the adult menu!
Awhile back, the Cheeseburger Steamed Pods were taken off the adult menu, much to our despair! And while we technically could still get them, we had to cheat the system a bit by ordering one from the kid’s menu or trying to order the entree from the Cashier. But now, the full entree is available on Mobile Order!
The entree is priced at $11.49 and it includes two pods, a side of Crunchy Vegetable Slaw, and Vegetable Chips.

Isle of Java
Located in the Discovery Island section of the park, Isle of Java is a kiosk that serves up coffee, cold beverages, breakfast pastries, and more. And currently, this location is only open from 8AM-11AM.
So, for now, if you want an afternoon cup of coffee in Animal Kingdom you’ll have to head to another location like Royal Anandapur Tea Company or Creature Comforts!
Check out our review of the Tiger Tail Chocolate Twist, an iconic snack you can snag at Isle of Java!

Discovery Trading Company
We were excited to spot a familiar face inside Discovery Trading Company! This Safari Minnie Mouse Loungefly Backpack popped up on shopDisney a few months ago, but it was nice to see her make an appearance in the park! This cutie is priced at $80.
And we also noticed that the super pretty Tie-Dye Spirit Jersey that we first saw at Star Traders in Magic Kingdom has also made its way to Animal Kingdom! You can pick one up for $69.99.
