Disney World has apparently decided that fall wasn’t busy enough.

 

We’ve already got Halloween parties, the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, seasonal decorations, pumpkin everything and enough limited-time merchandise to fill a small storage unit. Naturally, Disney’s next move was to give us a whole new list of things to eat.

 

And honestly? I’m not mad about it.

 

Disney just announced a huge lineup of new treats and drinks coming to Walt Disney World this fall, and there is a LOT happening here. We’re talking specialty waffles and pancakes, churros, frozen slushes, milkshakes, specialty beverages and cocktails.

 

Some of these sound genuinely fantastic. Others sound like someone was standing in a Disney kitchen saying, “Okay, but what if we put one more thing on it?”

 

Breakfast Is About to Get Very Interesting

If you thought Mickey waffles were already pretty hard to improve upon, Disney would like a word.

 

Over at Landscape of Flavors at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, guests will be able to try Birthday Cake Mickey Waffles and Birthday Cake Mickey Pancakes. They’re topped with birthday cake custard, cake crumbles, rainbow sprinkles, bacon and sausage.

 

Because apparently we have reached the point where Mickey waffles need to have their own birthday party.

 

At Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter, Port Orleans Riverside and Disney’s Pop Century Resort, guests can find Strawberry Mickey Waffles and Strawberry Pancakes served with vanilla custard.

 

Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort is getting Caramel-Banana Waffles and Pancakes, while Disney’s All-Star Music Resort will offer Fruit Cereal Waffles and Pancakes.

 

And then there’s Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort, where the Candy Bar Waffles and Pancakes are coming in hot with cookie bar pieces, caramel and chocolate sauce.

 

Look, I’m not saying you should eat dessert for breakfast. I’m just saying Disney appears to have removed the legal obstacles.

 

Disney Is Doing Some Serious Things to the Churro

Disney’s relationship with the churro has officially entered its experimental phase.

 

At Sunshine Seasons in EPCOT, the Churro Strawberry Shortcake Sundae combines churro loops with strawberry soft serve, strawberry compote, whipped cream and cake crumble.

 

That one might be dangerous. In the best possible way.

 

Over at the Isle of Java in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, the Churro-misu Cold Brew combines Joffrey’s cold brew with tiramisu cold foam and comes with a churro.

 

Yes, a cold brew now comes with a churro. We’ve really stopped pretending we’re here for vegetables.

 

Energy Bytes at Magic Kingdom is getting the Churro Overdrive, featuring cookies-and-cream mini churros with blue sugar and marshmallow.

 

And if you’re visiting EPCOT, the Mission: SPACE Cart will be offering Family Churros: 21 bite-size churros served with sprinkles and chocolate and caramel dipping sauces.

 

Twenty-one churros.

 

Disney has apparently decided that churros now require a serving size.

 

Then Come the Frozen Drinks

Florida fall is a beautiful thing. The decorations come out, the pumpkins appear and the temperature occasionally remembers that it is supposed to be autumn.

 

Fortunately, Disney has prepared accordingly.

 

The Key Lime Dream is a frozen drink made with frozen limeade and key lime, topped with sweet cream and graham cracker crumbs.

 

You’ll find it at Studio Main Entrance Coffee at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Pinocchio Village Haus at Magic Kingdom, Regal Eagle Smokehouse Bar at EPCOT and Beaches Pool Bar & Grill at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa.

 

There are also plenty of other frozen creations making their way around the resort featuring flavors like peach, lemon, vanilla, passion fruit, orange and guava.

 

Basically, Disney looked at the Florida heat and said, “Fine. We’ll make it drinkable.”

 

And Yes, There Are Milkshakes

Because no Disney food announcement would be complete without something involving an unreasonable amount of sugar.

 

The fall lineup includes specialty milkshakes and frozen creations, including the Steamboat Willie Milkshake and a S’mores Gelato Milkshake.

 

And because Disney knows its audience, there are plenty of specialty beverages and cocktails mixed in as well.

 

Which means one person in your party can be debating whether to get a Mickey waffle, another can be holding a churro the size of their forearm and someone else can be standing there with a frozen cocktail wondering how exactly the family ended up here.

 

Honestly, sometimes that’s the real Disney vacation.

 

The Fall Food I’m Actually Watching

There are a lot of choices in this announcement, but a few immediately jumped out at me.

 

The Churro Strawberry Shortcake Sundae sounds like exactly the kind of ridiculous Disney snack that you see once, think about for three days and eventually convince yourself you absolutely need.

 

The Churro-misu Cold Brew is another one I’m watching closely. Coffee plus tiramisu plus a churro feels less like a beverage and more like Disney testing the limits of what we’re willing to call breakfast.

 

And don’t overlook the resort waffles and pancakes. If you’re staying at one of the value resorts, these new breakfast options could be a fun way to start a park day without having to make breakfast another complicated reservation on the itinerary.

 

Fall at Disney World Just Got a Lot Sweeter

What I like about this particular food announcement is that Disney isn’t putting everything in one location and calling it a seasonal menu.

 

These new treats are spread across the parks and resorts, which means you’ll have plenty of opportunities to stumble across something new while you’re already out exploring.

 

And let’s be honest: that’s one of the best parts of Disney World.

 

You can start the morning thinking you’re just going to grab a quick breakfast, somehow end up with birthday cake Mickey waffles, encounter a churro before noon, and then spend the afternoon carrying around a frozen drink because Florida has apparently decided it’s still July.

 

That’s fall at Disney World in 2026.

 

And I have a feeling my snack budget is not going to survive it.

Arrrr you ready for some news my fellow foodies and pirates alike? The Beak and Barrel will be ready to welcome you starting August 29, 2025, and here is your first look at the menu!  

This lively pirate pub is filled with flavor and fun. From seasoned swashbucklers to budding buccaneers of all ages, you’ll want to check out this new location on your next trip to Magic Kingdom.  

All around, you’ll be immersed in an adventure across the Seven Seas with nods to both the classic Pirates of the Caribbean attraction and beloved films. As you join the pirate fun, you’ll enjoy thirst-quenching tropical beverages, delicious small bites, sing-alongs, storytelling, and enchanting surprises. 

Reservations open on August 14, so be sure to secure your spot or else you’ll have to walk the plank (just kidding).  

Let’s crack open this treasure chest and sea what’s on the horizon at The Beak and Barrel!  

Beak and Barrel Food and Drink Menu

Pirates of all ages will be able to enjoy two tasty drink selections.  

The Treasure Trove 

The first is the Treasure Trove, an imaginative non-alcoholic beverage cloaked in mystery. As you sip on this mix of ube, lemon, and coconut, you can also snack on some sweet treats, like a vanilla cake plank, chocolate cannonball, and golden caramel popcorn.  

 The Cursed Treasure 

The other non-alcoholic sip is the Cursed Treasure. This features a delicious combination of coconut milk and cookie crumbs topped with vanilla foam and pirate’s gold cookie. It’s that iconic cookies and cream flavor, in drink form.   

Kraken’s Catch 

Blimey! The adventurous foodies out there will have their eye on the Kraken’s Catch. This cold salad is quite unique with octopus tentacles – yes, you heard that right – marinated in lemon and lime juice and paired with olives, bell peppers, avocado, and Piquillo pepper-almond foam.  

Salty Seas mARRRgarita 

For adult pirates, there’s quite the selection of refreshing, colorful cocktails to enjoy, like the Salty Seas mARRRgarita. This drink features Southeast Asian flavors, such as ube which gives it the striking purple color, as well as Lalo Blanco Tequilla, Cointreau Liqueur, and lime.  

Siren’s Whisper 

I think I may hear a siren song drawing us to the next drink … The Siren’s Whisper will lure you in with its captivating blue color and promises of eternal youth. It combines Pot & Column Still White Rum with citrus and spice. This sip was inspired by the Fountain of Youth, also known as the Aqua de Vida from the films. For the final drop of allure, the drink is topped with a special siren tear. 

Cook’s Corn Griddle Cakes 

The treasure map has led to the Cook’s Corn Griddle Cakes. This warm corn cake is stuffed with melted cheese, lime sour cream, and chili peppers topped with cotija cheese. There are two paths you can take on your foodie adventure – one with roasted corn and poblano peppers or one with chipotle-braised chicken.  

Barrels Ablaze 

Next up, we’ve got the Barrels Ablaze. If you’ve got a taste for bourbon, you’ll find treasures with this one. It features Jack Daniel’s Bonded Bourbon, a hint of honey, and a dash of spice.  

Hibiscus Rum Punch Royale 

Yo ho, yo ho, it’s the Hibiscus Rum Punch Royale for me. As you sip, you’ll enjoy the lightly sweet and refreshing taste of this rum-based drink topped with prosecco. The bubbly effervescence combined with hibiscus, demerara and citrus will make you feel like you’re charting the Atlantic. 

Island Provisions 

Once they taste it, pirates will soon be telling tales of Island Provisions. This dish takes flair and flavors from the Caribbean and Central America regions. Grab your crew for this shareable bite with plantain chips, blue corn tortillas, and toasted flatbread served with various savory dips.   

Port of Call 

For those gin-loving pirates out there, Port of Call is the drink for you. This delightful sip brings the flavor. With London Dry Gin, Ruby Port, lemon juice, and spiced cranberry, you’ll be wanting to live the pirate’s life. 

Lit Fuse 

You don’t need to search uncharted waters to find this next beverage. The Lit Fuse is quite the tasty concoction. With Los Siete Misterios Doba -Yej Meszal, and flavors of banana, coconut, and smoked chili bitters, this beverage will light up your taste buds. 

Plunderer’s Punch 

Where’s the rum gone? Into the Plunderer’s Punch! It has Kraken Black Spiced Rum, blackberry, vanilla, and a hint of citrus. For some added treasure to take home with you, this sip comes in a souvenir pirate skull mug. This special loot is limited to one per guest. 

Beak and Barrel Beers at Walt Disney World

Wines and Exclusive Draft Beers 

Finally, for the beer buccaneers out there, you’ll be impressed with this lineup, savvy? The Beak and Barrel will be home to exclusive draft beer, including Victory Brewing Co. Pirate’s Paradise Blonde Ale and Wicked Weed Brewing Berried Treasure Session Sour, as well as bottled and canned lager and IPAs, such as Modelo Especial Lager, Red Stripe Lager, and Bell’s Two Hearted IPA.  

 The wine connoisseurs will also be saying, “shiver me timbers,” with wine by the glass options from various places across the seven seas available. These include the Spice Route ‘Chakalaka’ Red Blend, Quinta de Santiago Vinho Verde, and the Viarae Prosecco.  

The Beak and Barrel Merchandise Sneak ‘Beak’  

For some fun you can take home with you, there’s even some special keepsakes available for purchase. To be dressed in your pirate best, there will be a new T-shirt inspired by The Beak and Barrel and a Parrot Shoulder Plush. You can check out the store next door, Plaza del Sol Caribe Bazaar, to find these treasures!  

With these tasty adventures, the possibilities are endless when you visit Disney Parks.
