Victoria & Albert's Is Getting CLOSER to Reopening in Disney World

Between the big Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind update and the recent menu preview at Connections Cafe and Eatery, we’ve all been so focused on EPCOT that it can be easy to forget about another big reopening happening later this year!

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort

Over at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, a famous (and expensive) restaurant has remained closed due to the pandemic. While Disney recently shared a small update on the status of this restaurant, some new information proves that the big opening date could be coming soon!

Victoria & Albert’s in Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is one of the fanciest, most expensive, and most exclusive restaurants in Disney World. This place even earned the AAA Five-Diamond rating — it’s that good!

Victoria & Albert’s is an award-winning restaurant

While Disney recently shared that Victoria & Albert’s is set to reopen “later this year,” we still don’t have an exact opening date. (That gives us some time to start saving up!)

In the meantime, it looks like Disney is hard at work preparing for the reopening! The Disney Careers website has a new job listing for a Guest Experience Manager — Food & Beverage at Victoria & Albert’s restaurant.
