Disney Springs Removes First West Side Food Truck as All Three Face Mid‑June Closure
Reports say the truck sites will be cleared for additional guest seating to ease crowding and suggest a steady shift toward more curated, higher‑end dining at Disney Springs.
Overview
- The removal began this week when the Cilantro Urban Eatery truck was taken from Exposition Park, a development reported by multiple outlets on Monday and described as the first step in a planned closure of all three trucks by mid‑June 2026.
- Two remaining vendors, GoJuice and 4 Rivers Cantina Barbacoa, are still operating at Exposition Park but are reported to be closing within weeks and have not received a firm public closing date.
- Disney has not issued an official statement about the removals or future plans for the site, and the reporting that the spaces will become extra seating comes from unnamed sources cited by local Disney news outlets.
- The change removes a low‑cost, walk‑up dining option that many families and budget‑minded guests used for quick meals and snacks, forcing visitors to rely on other quick‑service areas such as the Marketplace or the Lime Garage corridor.
- Coverage frames the move as both a practical fix for crowding and part of a longer trend at Disney Springs toward larger, curated restaurants and premium experiences, a shift that could quietly reduce small, informal dining choices across the property.
