UPDATE on Disney World’s NEW Toy Story Restaurant – Roundup Rodeo BBQ

If you thought you’d seen everything 2022 has to offer at Disney World, you’d be wrong!

There are still places to hang out and dine with characters set to return this year. We also can’t forget the mysterious Fantasmic! return, which we know will take place in 2022. But that’s not all – there’s also a brand new restaurant opening this year at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

Let’s take a look at the Roundup Rodeo BBQ, coming soon to Toy Story Land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios:

Roundup Rodeo BBQ

This table-service restaurant will be a sit-down barbecue venue. With the use of larger than life toys, guests will shrink to the size of a toy when entering this food venue (as in many other parts of the country).

Guests will dine among the “play sets” of a western town and train station. There will also be a ton of Pixar character representations dotted throughout the restaurant.

Opening timeline

Disney shared that the restaurant will open in 2022. However, a specific date has yet to be shared by Disney.

That being said, we spotted a permit online that indicates progress in the upcoming restaurant. On August 3, a permit was filed requesting authorization for “Fabrication and installation of sets”. Perhaps it could refer to the detailed decor this place promises to have!

Another permit was submitted the same day, for the same address, requesting authorization for the “Project T – Thematic facades”. Again, this could refer to the displays needed to bring the restaurant to life.

Also, thanks to @bioreconstruct on Twitter, we can see the progress of the entrance to the restaurant. It’s coming !

We will continue to keep an eye out for any new information regarding the opening of this new table service location!
