Hi Taylor!
How exciting that you'll be staying at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge! It's a fantastic resort with so many wonderful things to see, do, and EAT! I’ve stayed there with my family several times and we absolutely loved it. It’s a gorgeous resort, and if you’re fortunate enough to have a savanna view room, you can wake up to the sight of giraffes, zebras, and other exotic animals grazing right outside your window! No worries if you don’t have a savanna view room - there are multiple viewing areas throughout the resort where you can watch the animals!
As for your love of Pop Century pizza, I completely understand – it's a favorite for many! We’ve enjoyed many of those delicious pizzas through the years.
While the exact, specific pizza from Pop Century's Everything POP Shopping & Dining isn't available everywhere, there are some great alternatives both in the parks and nearby that you can try:
The Mara: This quick-service location located near the Uzumi Springs Pool at Animal Kingdom Lodge offers flatbreads that might satisfy your pizza cravings.
Pizzafari: Located in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, Pizzafari serves a variety of delicious pizzas that might remind you of the flavors you love.
Pizza Window (Disney’s Boardwalk Resort): The Pizza Window serves up some big, delicious “Super Slices” to enjoy if you’re in the area. Try the Mini Cannolis for a special treat!
Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza (Disney Springs): Customize your pizza with a wide range of toppings. If you can dream it, they can make it!
Pizza Ponte (Disney Springs): This spot offers delicious, large slices of pizza - my favorite is the Parma Cotto – with ham, mozzarella and ricotta cheese – yum!
PizzeRizzo - My favorite of all the pizza places in Walt Disney World, PizzeRizzo in Disney’s Hollywood Studios is a hidden gem! The pizzas are SO yummy, they offer specialty desserts and seasonal offerings, and there’s plenty of air-conditioned seating. My favorite spot to sit is upstairs in what I like to call “The Disco Room”!
These are only a few dining locations serving pizza throughout Walt Disney World. Remember, part of the magic of Disney is discovering new favorites, so while it might not be the exact same pizza from Disney's Pop Century Resort, you might find a new go-to during your stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge!
No matter how you slice it, you're in for a wonderful vacation at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
