    • Liberty Tree Tavern Lunch Dining Review

      Posted at 4:21 pm by taryngirl, on January 26, 2021

      Liberty Tree Tavern is my favorite table service restaurant in the Magic Kingdom.  The setting is a colonial style inn, featuring traditional New England inspired cuisine. Lunch used to be ala carte ordering off of a menu, (pre-Covid times), but currently they are offering the same style dining as they do for dinner.  It’s brought out family style for everyone to share.  You can see the current menu HERE.

      Our reservation was for 12:05 p.m.  We checked in through the My Disney Experience app at 11:45 a.m., and were called 5 minutes later.  Inside there used to be places to sit and even places for kids to color while you waited.  Now there are spaces on the floor for you to stand socially distanced.  

      We started with some salad and warm rolls.

      Declaration Salad, tossed mixed greens with homemade dressing

      This salad is always very refreshing! The dressing is super light, but full of flavor. It’s one of my faves!

      These rolls are always served warm, and are so soft! Also one of my faves!

      The Patriot’s Platter includes Roasted Turkey Breast, Pot Roast (my favorite of the meats!), Oven Roasted Pork, Mashed Potatoes, Seasonal Vegetables, Herb Stuffing, and House-Made Macaroni and Cheese.

      The meats and the stuffing
      The vegetables, mashed potatoes, and macaroni and cheese

      One thing I want to note is the change in the macaroni and cheese since the last time I ate here! I think it used to be a Stouffer’s type, but now it’s listed as homemade. It definitely looked and tasted different. I much preferred this version!

      Our lunch was amazing! It’s so much food!  My personal favorites are the pot roast, mashed potatoes, and salad. You can order individual refills on any of the dishes you would like. We got a little bit more pot roast and mashed potatoes since we didn’t eat much of the pork.

      Our waitress was very attentive. She brought refills for our drinks before we were even finished with the first one.  It was kind of ridiculous the amount of glasses we had on our table at one time!

      This restaurant has my favorite dessert out of any restaurant in all of Disney.  OOEY GOOEY TOFFEE CAKE!  

      We were finished eating and out the door by 12:45 p.m.  I for sure would eat here again and definitely recommend it if you haven’t tried it yet!

    • March Disney World AEP Trip {Day 2}!

      Posted at 7:21 pm by taryngirl, on May 22, 2018

      Our training was to begin on Wednesday at 10 a.m. at the Contemporary Resort.  I left a little early to go grab a quick service breakfast from our resort (Mickey waffles of course!) at Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory then met up with my roommates.  We Ubered to the Contemporary.  The cost was about $8.  We were so happy we made this decision!  Those who took the bus from French Quarter to Magic Kingdom had to go through security in order to walk over to the Contemporary and the lines were long at this time.  {Side note on Ubering…We did it a lot on this trip!  And it was painless and cheap.  There are so many Uber and Lyft drivers around Disney, that we never waited more than a few minutes.  Everything is done right on the app so there’s no exchanging money with the driver.}  My friends grabbed a quick service breakfast at the Contempo Cafe at the Contemporary Resort.  This is absolutely one of my favorite quick service places in all of the World.  For any meal!  Their desserts are also fantastic.

      We wandered around a bit and eventually made our way over to the Convention Center area.  I had never been over in this area before!  I’ve stayed here on a previous trip, but never took the time to explore.  There are several different reception rooms.

      I’m going to be just highlighting my day and then will be writing up separate blog posts for each of the resorts that we visited!

      I neglected to mention that TODAY was the day that the Disney Cruise Line summer itineraries were released for Silver Castaway Club Members.  I had 4 cruises to book!  I had to step out briefly to book these cruises, but that’s a story for another day! 

      We had a really great morning session learning how to add value to client vacations, learning more about Disney Cruise Line and some great new sailings they are offering, including the NYC port, and all of the new things coming to the four main parks.

      • DISNEY CRUISE LINE–New sailings from NYC to Bermuda, NYC to Canada, and NYC to the Bahamas and Port Canaveral.
      • ANIMAL KINGDOM–Is now a day to night time park!  With Pandora, the World of Avatar opening, and the new Rivers of Light nightly celebration, there’s plenty to fill your day and evening.
      • DISNEY’S HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS–Toy Story Land is coming June 30th!  And Star Wars Land is not far behind, coming sometime in 2019.
      • EPCOT–Soarin’ has been reimagined.  Frozen Ever After is in full swing as well as the new meet and greet location for Anna and Elsa.  You can meet  Baymax and Joy and Sadness from Inside Out!
      • MAGIC KINGDOM–Wishes has been replaced with the Happily Ever After Fireworks show.  It uses more lasers, lights, and projections than ever before!  Princess Elena of Avalor is available for meet and greets now.
      • DISNEY SPRINGS–There are now more than 150 dining and shopping experiences here!

      It was time to start the resort tours.  Watch for individual blog posts highlighting each resort!

      The tours ended around 5 p.m.  My small group had Advanced Dining Reservations (ADR) at Liberty Tree Tavern in the Magic Kingdom around 7 p.m.  So we freshened up some back at the resort and then headed to the Magic Kingdom!  Sorry for the blurry picture, but this was the only picture I snapped while making our way down Main Street!

      Liberty Tree Tavern!  I can honestly say that this restaurant is in my top 3 table service in all of the World.  I really try to eat here on every trip.  The restaurant itself is found in Liberty Square.  It has colonial style inn theming.  You can have lunch here, and order a la carte, or you can have dinner, and that is served family style.  I have never eaten dinner here prior to this trip!  Only lunch.

      Here is a pic of the dinner menu (March 2018):

      For dinner, you get everything listed food wise, and then choose a drink.  You can upgrade your drink and pay extra by choosing one of these:

      The servings shown here were for four people.  You can request more of any item you wish.  Which we did…for the rolls and the mashed potatoes!

      IMG_0679

      The salad was so good!  The dressing was super flavorful and light.  The rolls were warm, right out of the oven.

      IMG_0678

      My favorites shown here were the mashed potatoes, the pot roast (which is what I typically order off of the lunch menu), the turkey and the green beans.

      IMG_0677.JPG

      And my most favorite dessert ANYWHERE…the Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake!  I keep saying they need to open up a window and just sell these.  They would sell tons!

      This meal did not disappoint, and I will surely be back again.

      We passed through here on our way out from dinner.  I love this little area!  Tangled is one of my favorite Disney movies!

      Up next {Day 3}!
