An Upcoming Disney World Restaurant Continues to Hit "Pause"

There always seems to be something new in the works at Disney World, whether it’s a new ride, hotel, or dining location! Over the last year, we’ve seen several upcoming projects hit the “pause” button, including the Spaceship Earth renovation at EPCOT.

An anticipated addition to Disney Springs is also experiencing a bit of a setback, and we have an important update to share with you today!

Last summer, we had shared the news that construction on Beatrix, a Chicago-based table service restaurant, had been paused. At the time, a resumption date had yet to be announced.

We reached out to Beatrix to see if we could get a status update on the timeline for this location, and we have some good news: the project has not been canceled! Taking a look at Disney’s website, the dining location is still listed as “Coming Soon.”

The not-so-good news is that a date to resume construction has still not been determined at this time. However, rather than leave the area as-is, a decision has been made to convert the construction zone to green space until the project restarts.

We will continue to keep an eye on the progress happening over at Disney Springs, and we will let you know as soon as we know more regarding a construction restart date!
