Greetings from the West Coast, DFB Friends!

There is a LOT going on right now over here in Disneyland — Pride Month has arrived (along with a SLEW of new snacks), the Soul of Jazz exhibit has officially opened, Blue Bayou Restaurant has reopened, and Magic Key Pass sales have been paused! Oh, and Fantasmic! and Tale of the Lion King are back! Whew — it’s a lot. But we’ve got ALL the updates from Disneyland, so let’s get started!

Disneyland Food Updates

Blue Bayou Restaurant

After closing back in April, the fan-favorite Blue Bayou Restaurant has officially reopened in Disneyland Park! For now, Blue Bayou is only accepting walk-ins for both lunch and dinner right now (you can join the walk-up list at the podium or via the Disneyland app) and reservations won’t become available until a later date. once again at a later date).

So, if you were looking for a sign that it’s time to get yourself the famous Disneyland Monte Cristo — consider this it! Just keep in mind that you won’t be seeing any Pirates of the Caribbean’s boats drifting by until June 30th when the ride officially reopens.

Refreshment Corner

We also stopped by Refreshment Corner to try the new Rocket Soda!  It’s made with blue raspberry syrup, Sprite, whipped cream, and cherry flavor-filled boba. Although it’s a sweet drink, we also thought it was refreshing!

You can grab one for yourself for $5.99.

Troubadour Tavern

We tried all FIVE new Celebrate Soulfully foods at Troubadour Tavern — yes, FIVE! There was the Chicken Coconut Curry Sweet Potato for $9.49 — it’s a Baked Sweet Potato topped with a Malawian Chicken-Coconut Curry. It was delicious!

Then we got the Hakuna Matata Sweets for $8.99, which is three treats in one! You get a Coconut Macaroon, a Pineapple Orange Thumbprint, and a Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookie topped with Cacao Nibs and a White Chocolate Animal Print Decor. 

We also tried two new drinks, first being the Pride Rock Punch for $5.49. It is Gold Peak Tea, pineapple, mango, tamarind, and orange juice. We found it sweet and refreshing!

And, lastly, we had some sips of the Cardamon Cold Brew for $4.99. cold brew coffee, brown sugar, and cardamom over ice. We will admit that this one tasted STRONG.
