whispering canyon cafe // disney world's wilderness lodge

Happy Tuesday friends! I am so excited to share more about the trip to Florida that I took last week! Today I am specifically excited to share about Whispering Canyon Cafe that is located at the Disney World's Wilderness Lodge.

Whispering Canyon Cafe is one of the signature restaurants at the Disney World's Wilderness Lodge which is located in the heart of "the most magical place on earth". Our drive up to the entrance of the lodge (which I had never visited before) was beautiful! The rustic inspired majesty of the America's Great Northwest and National Park Lodges truly give a feeling of great outdoors while keeping the service that is fully Disney and yet a bit removed. We did not stay there, but loved the opportunity to use the My Disney App to book our breakfast there to start off our day.

Our reservation was for 9:25am and we arrived a few minutes early and it was so fun to see the beginning part of the resort. After we ate we took a walk around, which I will show pictures of a little bit later on in this post.

We were immediately impressed with the lovely welcome that we received and also the restaurant itself. It was fun. The energy inside the restaurant created such a fun atmosphere from beginning to end that it was the perfect beginning to our Saturday.

Whispering Canyon Cafe provides breakfast, lunch, and dinner and is open to the public each day and reservations are highly recommended. If you are coming to visit Disney and use the Disney app you can arrange your reservations through the app for Whispering Canyon Cafe. The menu for the restaurant is limited in its selections, but with lots of different options. You can find the menus HERE!

It took us some time to decide on what we wanted (because everything looked delicious!) but we were all so excited with what we chose. Y'all. It was AMAZING. It was delicious and so yummy!!

The restaurant is a lot of fun and there tons of laughter. There different quirks with things and you can even end up in "jail". The laughter in the room provided such a fun beginning to our day. We had the best time just sitting and chatting and talking! We ended up spending two hours just relaxing there and it was one of my favorite meals that I ever had a Disney property.

For those who have food allergies like myself, one of the things that was delightful to discover was how much Whispering Canyon Cafe catered to my food allergies. When the reservations were made with the Disney app I had the opportunity to "forewarn" the kitchen of my allergies. and when we sat down one of the first things that our waiter did was go over the restrictions I had. The waiter quickly and competently shared the items that would be best for me and also about the different items that could be tailored (including the the amazing waffles I had!!) to be gluten free. As someone who has health issues it was nice to know that these options were available at the restaurant even before we arrived. It was refreshing to know that so much precautions were taken and I could enjoy my meal with no worries of cross-contamination.
