Of these, Guests particularly enjoy taking in the many restaurants on offer for Disney Guests—each Resort hotel and Theme Park has different themed restaurants, with some offering character dining along with diverse cuisines from all over the world. One of these fan-favorite restaurants will be closing soon for refurbishment.

Journalist Scott Gustin took to Twitter to share the news; check it out:

As Gustin shared,

NEW: Trail’s End Restaurant at Fort Wilderness will close for refurbishment in the spring and reopen later this year as a marketplace concept with expanded quick service options. The table service option will no longer be offered.

Note: There will be no impact to Hoop-Dee-Doo.

On hearing the news, many fans immediately expressed both their disappointment and their love for the eatery.

Twitter user Brendan Nabozny shared, “Oh…this one actually hurts a little. I have a lot of great memories at Trails End but it makes sense. Campground guests need an indoor space to eat if they pick up from the quick service and that was really lacking.”

Another Twitter user, @wisteriaoxalis, also agreed, “I have literally driven two hours just have breakfast here and head back home another two hour. @WaltDisneyWorld please don’t close it, this is such a huge bummer. It’s the theming and the breakfast for me!!”
