Disneyland has shared a first look inside Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree, a new Country Bear-themed restaurant.
Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree
In the social media video embedded below, Disney gives us a glimpse of Country Bear portraits on the walls inside Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree. These include framed artwork of Country Bears Gomer, Big Al, and Teddi Bara.
One shot includes a good look at the Ursus H. Bear mural we previously spotted from afar. Ursus H. Bear is the founder of Grizzly Hall and the Country Bear Jamboree. The mural calls him the “Grr-ill Master” of Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree.
Watch the video below.
Disney also shared clips of several of the restaurant’s food items. Check out the full menu with prices.
Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree is a reimagining of the former Hungry Bear Restaurant inspired by Country Bear Jamboree. The menu is made of “regional barbecue dishes the Country Bears discovered while on tour.” Hungry Bear Restaurant closed on July 8 for a scheduled “kitchen refurbishment” and the retheme was announced later. Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree will open on October 25.
The Country Bear Jamboree opened at the Disneyland Resort on March 4, 1972. The attraction closed on September 9, 2001, and was replaced by The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. Though the Country Bears no longer call Disneyland home in attraction form, guests can say hi to a statue of Big Al that was installed at Disney California Adventure earlier this year. Country Bear Musical Jamboree, a new version of the original Country Bears show, opened at Magic Kingdom this summer.
Hungry Bear Restaurant was part of Critter Country at Disneyland, which will be renamed “Bayou Country” when Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens in November. Disney recently shared a first look at new Bayou Country Cast Member costumes.
