We’re all about Disney FOOD here at DFB. It’s in our name, after all.
We keep track of the latest and greatest eats, drinks, restaurant news, menu changes, and a whole lot more. So, when a seasonal restaurant shows signs that it might reopen soon, well, we get pretty darn excited. We recently spotted something that made us think Tortuga Tavern would reopen soon in Magic Kingdom, but then again, maybe we didn’t…
Disney, please quit playing games with our hearts — we can’t take it anymore. Tortuga Tavern is located in Magic Kingdom’s Adventureland, and it’s a quick-service restaurant that’s open seasonally — typically when the parks get REALLY busy. Tortuga Tavern was recently moonlighting as Tortuga Treasures — a temporary gift shop location.
However, that didn’t last too long, and soon after, Tortuga Treasures was back — sort of. The sign was back to normal, anyway.
Still, the restaurant didn’t show signs of opening anytime soon, until one morning when we noticed an update on the Disney World website that showed hours for the restaurant beginning on January 1st and going through late February…
…however, that was short-lived. By the time we checked the website again, no hours were showing for Tortuga Tavern at all! What gives, Disney?! Will we get to dine on these delicious eats in a few short days, or no?!
We can’t wait to see what Tortuga Tavern brings to Magic Kingdom this time around — if it does actually open anytime soon. You know we’ll be checking it out once the restaurant officially opens, so stay tuned for our full review.
In the meantime, don’t forget to keep checking back here at Disney Food Blog for the latest Disney news and updates!
