Hollywood and Vine Ends Disney Junior Character Meals as Minnie's Seasonal Dine Expands

Hollywood & Vine at Disney's Hollywood Studios has changed its breakfast lineup. Beginning this past weekend on October 12, 2025, Minnie's Seasonal Dine has expanded to include breakfast in addition to its existing lunch and dinner service.

This marks the end of the Disney Junior Play 'n Dine breakfast, which previously featured characters like Vampirina, Fancy Nancy, and Doc McStuffins. These characters are no longer appearing at Disney's Hollywood Studios, as the Animation Courtyard, home to the Disney Junior Play & Dance show and meet-and-greet area, is currently closed for transformation into the new Magic of Disney Animation venue.

While Disney hasn't made any announcements about their return, it seems likely that Disney Junior characters could appear again when the new Animation Courtyard experience opens in 2026.

I want Doc McStuffins Back!

I sure hope the Disney Junior Characters will return because It would be an absolute miracle if Doc McStuffins Returns to Walt Disney World. My Disney Experience Won’t Be The Same Without Her.

I would think that Minnie and friends have broader appeal than the Disney Jr. characters.

I think Breakfast with Bluey has to be very high on the priority list for Disney. I don't think we will ever see that lineup of characters again.

That’s not accurate. The Disney Junior breakfast has never taken a season off before. It has been a consistent breakfast (other than covid times) since it originally started back in 2006 back in the Playhouse Disney branding era. This has been announced as a permanent removal of Disney Junior to expand the Minnie seasons to all day.

In the past the Disney Junior breakfast resumes after the Holiday period. Of course they could change the line-up, but the chances are Disney Junior characters will return. Edit: I could have sworn the breakfast line-up changed for Christmas, because people would get caught out by it. . 🤷‍♀️ However I can’t find anything so I’ll retract that part.

I Hope Doc McStuffins Gets a New Home Next Year
