If you couldn’t figure it out by now, I am a huge Disney nerd. And the fact that in new Fantasyland they have Gaston’s Tavern and a Beauty and the Beast themed restaurant means only one thing – it is a complete must do.

Our first day at the Magic Kingdom meant a beeline straight to this area – however the restaurant had a huge line so we settled for Gaston’s Tavern.

Here, they serve LeFou’s Brew (you can get it in a souvenir mug or in a normal cup for much less). It’s literally frozen apple juice with passionfruit whip.

Being almost 31 degrees that day, it was delightfully refreshing, sweet and perfect for two people to share.

We also ordered the Hog Shank, which is ridiculous sized roasted pork leg, to show you how huge it was, here’s Brian with the leg.

It’s slow roasted to a nice crispy outer layer and is juicy and tender in the middle.

What I liked most about this quick service area is the ambiance.

There are two areas you can eat – the area where we ate was the fireplace area which had a huge portrait of the man himself and a large chair that is the perfect photo op.
