The Best Disney World Snacks
As any visitor to Disney World knows, snacking is an integral part of the park experience. From sweet treats to savory bites, there’s no shortage of delicious snacks to try. In this guide, you will discover the best Disney World snacks, from classic favorites to unique limited-time offerings. You will also find tips and tricks for making the most of your snacking experience. Whether you’re a seasoned Disney-goer or a first-time visitor, this guide is sure to satisfy your appetite for all things delicious.
1. Waffle Sandwiches
- Location: Sleepy Hollow in Liberty Square (Magic Kingdom)
- Fresh Fruit Waffle Sandwich: $8.49 – served with Chocolate-Hazelnut Spread
- Sweet-and-Spicy Chicken Waffle Sandwich: $11.59 – served with House-made Chips
We really like Sleepy Hollow at Magic Kingdom. It is in a great location for a quick stop for a snack and a drink and we often stop here in the morning having hit rope drop first to enjoy some rides. My pick here would be the waffle sandwiches. You have quite a few options and can go sweet or savory with such choices as:
2. Mickey Waffles
- Location: Sleepy Hollow in Liberty Square (Magic Kingdom)
- Price: $6.49 (with powdered sugar) $7.49 (with strawberries and whipped cream)
Along with waffle sandwiches you can also get Mickey Waffles at Sleepy Hollow too. These are a big favorite with my wife and children. You can get one with just powdered sugar or with strawberries and whipped cream. I very much enjoyed a plain Mickey waffle with a black coffee to start my day in MAgic Kingdom.
3. Nom Nom Cookie
- Location Neigborhood Bakery (Pixar Place at Hollywood Studios)
- Price: $6.19
This good sized warm and crunchy cookie is delicious and it also has melted chocolate chips inside it too. I was really looking forward to trying this for the first time on our recent vacation and the Nom Nom Cookie didn’t disappoint at all. If you love a cookie this needs to be on your Disney World snacks list for your next Walt Disney World vacation.
4. Mickey Pretzel
- Location: Various food stands across all the Disney World parks
- Price: $7.49
Another classic that has been around for years at Disney World but sometimes you just need a Mickey Pretzel with a tub of that cheese sauce. Salty, filling and cheesy these are great after a few alcoholic drinks (especially after visiting World Showcase) but they do make for a great Disney World snack. If you haven’t tried make sure you do on your next trip to DisneyWorld.
These pretzels can be found throughout the parks, including at the Lunching Pad in Tomorrowland at the Magic Kingdom, and at the Block & Hans kiosk in Epcot.
Tip: sometimes right at the end of the day just before the park closes they will give these away for free (or as the cast members say: it’s on the Mouse).
5. Dole Whip Float
- Location: Aloha Isle in Adventureland (Magic Kingdom)
- Price: $6.99
Now this is definitely a Disney World classic but it is such a refreshing treat to enjoy on a very hot day at Magic Kingdom. The combination of the Dole pineapple soft serve along with the pineapple juice makes the Dole Whip float a must have snack during a Disney World vacation.
6. Wonderland Slush
- Location: Cheshire Cafe in Fantasyland (Magic Kingdom)
- Price: $5.99
Our daughter loves a slush drink so she had to try this on our recent Disney World trip and she loved it. The wonderland slush is made up of frozen Minute Maid raspberry lemonade and frozen Fanta Grape and to top it off it’s served with a hard strawberry candy straw. There are lots of slush drink options across the Disney parks but this is the one to try on your Disney World vacation.
7. Mickey Colossal Cinnamon Roll
- Location: Creature Comforts (Discovery Island at Animal Kingdom)
- Price: $7.49
- And sometimes the Starbucks across the Disney World parks (you can find our Disney World Starbucks guide here)
We love having a cinnamon roll when we are at Disney World. They can be a great quick breakfast snack with a coffee to start a day but our favorite has to be the colossal Mickey Cinnamon Roll that you find at the Creature Comforts Starbucks at Animal Kingdom. You can easily share a Colossal Mickey Cinnamon Roll with another person. Definitely consider trying one of these to start your day with when visiting Animal Kingdom.
You will also find seasonal Mickey Cinnamon Rolls during the year just like the Christmas one pictured below.
8. Seasonal Sugar Cookie
- Location: Across various locations across the Disney World Parks
- Price: Varies Depending on Size of Cookie
Our kids love the sugar cookies at Disney World, especially our son. They are fairly plain (our son isn’t very adventurous yet when it comes to food) but they are sweet and tasty and throughout the year you can get seasonally designed sugar cookies. On our last visit there was
9. Disney Character Candy Apples
- Location: Across various locations across the Disney World Parks (but try the Main Street Confectionery at Magic Kingdom and Goofy’s Candy Company at Disney Springs)
- Price: $5.79
A fantastic looking sweet treat and snack to try at Disney World in 2022 is the fantastically designed candy apples. You will find them in various designs and it can be fascinating to watch them get made by the cast members at the Main Street Confectionary and Goofy’s Candy Company at Disney Springs. A popular snack with the children.
10. The Holiday Turkey Sandwich
- Location: Earl of Sandwich (Disney Springs)
- Price: $8.99
I absolutely love the Holiday Turkey Sandwich which you can Earl of Sandwich. This delicious sandwich has turkey, stuffing, turkey gravy, cranberry sauce, and mayonnaise. This can be a great stop gap between breakfast and dinner or just a delicious snack. I always get one of these at Disney Springs.
11. Mammoth Pecan Pattie
- Location: The Main Street Confectionery (Magic Kingdom)
- Price: $4.99
I love these huge pecan patties that are covered in chocolate. On more than one occasion I have stood on Main Street with one of these and a hot coffee waiting for the evening fireworks to begin. If you love pecan sweet treats and are feeling hungry in Magic Kingdom then pop into the Main Street Confectionary and try one of these. I have one at least once during a Disney World vacation. They are a big yummy Disney World snack you have to try.
12. Churro’s
- Found across all the Walt Disney World Parks
- Price: $5.25
No list of classic Disney snacks would be complete without mentioning Churros. These fried, cinnamon-sugar coated treats are a staple at Disney parks around the world, and can be found at various locations throughout Disney World, including in Frontierland at the Magic Kingdom, and at the Mexico Pavilion in Epcot.
13. Mickey Ice Cream Bar
- Found across all the Walt Disney World Parks
- Price: $6.29
The Mickey Ice Cream Bar (or ice cream sandwich) is a classic Disney snack that is loved by visitors of all ages. This frozen treat features creamy vanilla ice cream coated in a thick layer of chocolate, shaped like Mickey Mouse’s iconic silhouette. It’s the perfect snack to enjoy on a hot day in the park, and the combination of sweet and creamy flavors makes it a truly satisfying treat.
Plus, its iconic shape and classic Disney branding make it a fun and memorable snack to enjoy during your visit to the parks. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned Disney-goer, the Mickey Ice Cream Bar is a must-try snack that is sure to delight your taste buds.
14. Breakfast Bowl
- Location: Woody’s Lunchbox (Toy Story Land at Hollywood Studios)
- Price: $8.79
Cheat alert, this is more of a meal option than a snack but it is such a great quick option to start a day at Hollywood Studios that I really wanted to mention it.
This breakfast bowl has Potato Barrels smothered in Smoked Brisket Country Gravy, Scrambled Eggs and a sprinkling of Green Onions and it is really tasty. Woody’s Lunchbox is a great place to stop first thing in the morning for a bite to eat so I felt the Breakfast Bowl deserved a mention.
15. Batuu Bites
- Location: Oga’s Cantina (Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge at Hollywood Studios)
- Price: $11.00
If you make a reservation for Oga’s Cantina (you can find our full review here) make sure you try the Batuu Bites. These are a delicious selection of vegetable chips with dip and we enjoyed so much on our last visit. Don’t be fooled by their odd appearance because once you start eating them you just won’t stop until they are all gone.
Snacks by Disney World Land
Each land within Disney World offers its own unique snacks and treats. For example, in Frontierland at the Magic Kingdom, you can find the iconic Turkey Leg, a massive smoked turkey leg that has been a park favorite for decades. Other land-specific snacks include the School Bread in Norway at Epcot’s World Showcase, and specialty Cupcakes at Starring Rolls Cafe in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Unique and Limited-Time Snacks
In addition to classic Disney snacks, there are also a number of unique and limited-time offerings that are well worth trying. One of these is the Peter Pan Float, a refreshing mix of lime soft-serve, Sprite, and a splash of Fanta that can be found at Storybook Treats in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom.
Another unique snack is the Ronto Wrap, a savory, grilled sausage and pork wrap served at Ronto Roasters in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. And for those with a sweet tooth, the Rose Gold Cupcake, a vanilla cupcake with raspberry filling and rose gold-colored buttercream frosting, is a must-try.
Healthy Snack Options
While Disney World is known for its indulgent treats, there are also plenty of healthy snack options available for those who prefer to eat lighter. One such option is the Pineapple Spear, a refreshing and vitamin-rich snack that can be found at Aloha Isle in Adventureland at the Magic Kingdom.
Another healthy snack is the Fruit and Cheese Plate, which includes a variety of seasonal fruits and cheeses, and can be found at various locations throughout the parks. And for those looking for a protein-packed snack, the Hummus with Vegetables, available at several locations throughout Disney World, is a great option.
Snack Tips and Tricks
To make the most of your Disney World snacking experience, there are a few tips and tricks to keep in mind. For example:
- Sharing snacks with others is a great way to try more treats without overindulging.
- Additionally, sharing large snacks can help you save money on snacks throughout the parks.
- It’s also a good idea to time your snack breaks with showtimes and other events, so you can enjoy a snack while you wait for a parade or fireworks show.
- If you’re looking to avoid long lines, try visiting snack locations during off-peak hours.
