Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill to Permanently Close at Disney Springs

Another Town Center anchor is going. Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill at Disney Springs will serve its last guests on September 13, 2026.

No replacement has been announced.

Quick Summary

• Final day of service is September 13, 2026
• The 250-seat restaurant sits in Town Center, across from Planet Hollywood
• Announced May 2017, opened November 2018 — under eight years
• Menu was Mediterranean flavors and updated comfort food
• Disney hasn’t said what replaces it

What’s Closing

The 250-seat restaurant sits in the Town Center area of Disney Springs, across from Planet Hollywood. Disney announced the concept in May 2017, and it opened in November 2018 as one of the anchor dining spots in Town Center.

Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill built its menu around Mediterranean flavors and updated comfort food classics, along with handcrafted cocktails.

The design drew on traditional farmhouse style with an elegant touch, aiming for the laid-back California dining feel Puck is known for at his original Spago in Los Angeles.

Under Eight Years Is Short

For context on the lifespan: this restaurant opened in November 2018 and closes in September 2026. That’s a shorter run than most Disney Springs anchors manage.

It also isn’t Puck’s first exit from this complex. The original Wolfgang Puck Grand Café operated in the West Side from the Downtown Disney era and closed in 2017 — the Bar and Grill was effectively its Town Center replacement.

So this is the second Wolfgang Puck restaurant to leave the property in under a decade, which suggests the brand has struggled to find its footing at Disney Springs rather than a single location underperforming.

The Menu Before It Closes

If you want to visit before September 13, here’s what’s currently being served.

Starters:

• Zeppole Cinnamon Sugar — $14
• Bruschetta with Stracciatella Cheese — $17
• Truffled Potato Chips with Point Reyes Blue Cheese Sauce — $17
• Crispy Chicken Wings with sweet & spicy chili soy glaze — $18
• Crab Cakes — $23

Salads:

• Caesar Salad — $18
• Strawberry & Feta Salad — $20
• Chinois Chicken Salad — $21

Wood-fired pizzas:

• Margherita — $19
• Pepperoni — $21
• Mushroom — $21
• Sausage — $22
• Smoked Salmon — $34

Pasta:

• Mac & Cheese with Roasted Pork Belly — $21
• Four Cheese Ravioli — $31
• Rigatoni Bolognese — $32

Mains:

• Puck Burger — $25
• Viennese Chicken Schnitzel — $28

Brunch:

• French Toast — $23
• Huevos Rancheros — $24
• Old School Breakfast — $27
• Steak and Eggs — $49

Bar: cocktails include the Coconut Berry Refresher with P1 Vodka and Red Bull ($19) and the Isla Rosa Mule with Corazon Tequila ($19).

What to Order Before It Goes

The Chinois Chicken Salad at $21 is the genuine Puck signature here. Chinois on Main was his Santa Monica restaurant that helped define California-Asian fusion in the 1980s, and the chopped chicken salad is its most-copied dish. It’s the one item on this menu with real culinary lineage.

The Viennese Chicken Schnitzel at $28 is the personal one. Puck is Austrian, and schnitzel on a Disney Springs menu is him rather than the brand.

The wood-fired pizzas are the Spago connection — Puck is widely credited with popularising gourmet pizza in America, and the Margherita at $19 is the cheapest way to try the thing he’s actually famous for.

Skip the $49 Steak and Eggs unless you specifically want it. That’s signature-dining pricing at a casual restaurant on its way out.

What This Means for Town Center

Town Center is Disney Springs’ retail district, and its dining has always been thinner than The Landing or the West Side. Losing a 250-seat anchor leaves a substantial hole in both capacity and floor space — and Disney hasn’t said what fills it.

It’s also the second notable Town Center change recently. The Hallmark Holiday Pop-Up Shop arrives in early October, reportedly taking the former Francesca’s space nearby.

A 250-seat restaurant footprint is a significant piece of real estate, and whatever replaces it will take time. Expect walls through at least part of 2027.

If You Want to Go

You have until September 13. Book now if you want a table. Closing announcements reliably drive a final rush, and a restaurant with a fixed end date fills its last two weeks.

Walk-ups will be harder than usual, particularly the final weekend.

The Bottom Line

Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill at Disney Springs closes permanently on September 13, 2026, after opening in November 2018 — the second Wolfgang Puck restaurant to leave the complex in under a decade.

The 250-seat Town Center restaurant is still serving its full brunch, lunch, and dinner menu until then, including the Chinois Chicken Salad and Viennese Chicken Schnitzel.

Disney has not announced a replacement.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who.

We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions.  On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over.  He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip.  Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate was absolutely the best planner I have ever had.  Will most definitely be using him again.   He took care of everything and kept me on track.  Was so very helpful in making all the dining reservations and everything.   Can't thank him enough.   He made our trip completely stress free!

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
