Some of the usual entertaining antics you’ve come to expect from Whispering Canyon Cafe could be a thing of the past. Folks have been whispering about the changes on social media in recent days and it appears a response from Disney on Twitter confirms some of the changes.
Whispering Canyon Cafe surrounds you with log-cabin atmosphere, and serving you will be, in the company’s own words, “colorfully named Cast Members who have a reputation for sassing customers.” Whispering Canyon is a lively dining spot known for loud whoops and songs.
Among some of the popular antics is the surprise guests get when they ask for ketchup the and the staff brings them out a ton bottles basically filling up their whole table with them.

As you can see in the tweet below these are some of the shenanigans that guests are upset about losing. This tweet also is the one that contains Disney’s apparent response to the changes.

It’s not an outright conformation of specific changes but it definitely not a denial to any part of the twitter users questions. The decision has many guest a little upset and you can see in some of the posts below.

Other than the slightly vague and rather canned response its not exactly clear what the official changes are except for what guest have reported. We will keep you updated if Disney makes any further clarification. For now we’ll hope that too much hasn’t changed and maybe they will listen to guests to keep the funny antics part of the ambiance.
