Buffets Returning to Animal Kingdom’s Tusker House
Hey Disney Park fans! As you may know, we’ve seen Disney World restaurants impacted by menu changes and price increases. We’ve also seen restaurants resume their traditional buffet service, bring character dining back, and make other changes. Soon, changes will impact a fan favorite dining location!
Tusker House Restaurant has been open in Disney’s Animal Kingdom for quite some time, and one we often recommend. But, when this spot reopened post the COVID-19 pandemic closures, it resumed service with family-style dining, as opposed to its regular buffet service. However that’ll all be changing very soon! According to the Disney World website, Tusker House will continue to offer family-style dining through October 31st.
On November 1st, 2022, however, buffet service will RETURN to Tusker House! The buffet menu has not yet been shared, but Disney has said to check back for details. We can’t wait to see what will be on the buffet menu and how the experience will feel once it has returned back to “normal.”
This restaurant joins a few others where buffet service has or will soon return. In Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Hollywood & Vine will be bringing back its buffet on August 28th. Buffets have also returned to Cape May Cafe at Disney’s Beach Club Resort, in a small way during breakfast at Ale & Compass at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, and at other Disney World spots (like Boma at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge).
