Snack Time at Walt Disney World
Print This Article Ezine Publisher Send To Friends Add To Favorites Post A Comment Suggest Topic Report Author

Snacks at Walt Disney World are a nice taste treat for some and an obsession for others. Here are some of my favorites:

Magic Kingdom

Aloha Isle (Adventureland)

Dole Whip is the claim to fame at Aloha Isle, and I'll guarantee you'll love this soft-serve pineapple frozen treat. You can even order it in a Coke or root beer float. I do warn you - it's addictive!

Main Street Bake Shop (Main Street)

It's difficult to ignore this sweet shop on Main Street loaded with all kinds of goodies the likes of Snickers cheesecake, giant bear claws, huge hot cinnamon rolls oozing with frosting, giant-size Rice Krispie treats, lovely fruit tarts, and much, much more. Stop in just to stare.

Sleepy Hollow (Liberty Square)

The long lines attest to the goodness of the funnel cakes here. There's also caramel corn, ice cream cookie sandwiches, and luscious root beer floats.

Sunshine Tree Terrace (Adventureland)

Running a close second to Dole Whip is a Citrus Swirl, soft serve vanilla ice cream twisted with frozen orange juice. Although there's much debate about which is best, try both to get in on the action.

Epcot

Boulangerie Patisserie (France)

Don't worry about missing this place - just look for the long line snaking outside into the street. Crowds flock here for the huge assortment of French pastries such as chocolate éclairs, peach tarts, coconut pyramids (my favorite), napoleons, chocolate mousse, chocolate croissants - the list goes on. Find a table on the cobblestone sidestreet and watch the "World" go by.

Crepes des Chefs de France (France)

This kiosk in France makes delicious, hot crepes right in front of your eyes with your choice of filling: chocolate, sugar, or strawberry. Order a cappuccino to sip along with it.

Kringla Bakeri og Café (Norway)

For what it's worth, my favorite snack is to be found here. I can never resist picking up one of the soft, chewy, sweet pretzels topped with icing and sliced almonds. Combine one with a Viking Coffee spiked with Baileys Irish Cream.

Sommerfest (Germany)

Order up a nice bratwurst roll topped with sauerkraut accompanied by German beer. Or go for a dessert of yummy apple strudel topped with lovely vanilla sauce.

Sunshine Seasons Terrace (The Land - Future World)
One popular snack are the Nestle Toll House Cookies baked fresh here throughout the day.

Disney Hollywood Studios

Min and Bill's Dockside Diner

The pretzels are quite good with your choice of cheese or apple cinnamon stuffing. And their yummy, thick shakes are always a winner.

Animal Kingdom

Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery (Africa)

The giant cinnamon rolls dripping with icing are big favorites.

Pizzafari (Discovery Island)

For a quick snack pick up a hot basket of pizza dough breadsticks topped with cheese served up with a side of marinara.

Disney Resorts
Beaches and Cream (Disney's Beach Club Resort)

Lots of choices here at this 50s-style soda shop. My all-time favorite is the old-fashioned malts with the extras served on the side in the stainless steel mixing cup. If you want to go all out order the Kitchen Sink with piles of ice cream (literally served in a miniature kitchen sink) smothered in every topping available.

Captain Cook's (Disney's Polynesian Resort)

Don't forget the famous Dole Whip found at the Magic Kingdom is also served here.

The Mara (Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge)

Two popular items from the resort's Boma restaurant can be found at this counter-service spot - Zebra domes, a delicious amarula (a South African cream liqueur) mousse with chocolate ganache stripes, and paw print brownies, a chocolate brownie with a cocoa lion cub paw print in the icing.

Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory (Disney's Port Orleans French Quarter Resort)
I'm obsessed with the beignets here - the best I've had outside of New Orleans.

Spoodles Pizza Window (Disney's Boardwalk)

The tasty pizza served at Spoodles Restaurant can be had at this walk-up window just outside. Pick up a slice and catch the Boardwalk's fun atmosphere while you chow down.

Downtown Disney

Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop (Marketplace)
Try Earthquake, an extravaganza of eight scoops of ice cream, eight toppings, bananas, whipped cream, almonds, and cherries. The warm brownie sundae runs a close second.

Goofy's Pantry (Marketplace)

A great assortment of homemade cookies and other sweets. On cold nights the cookies taste terrific with a cup of hot chocolate.

Wetzel's Pretzels (West Side)

It's tough to resist a trip to Wetzel's Pretzels. Favorite's include the jalapeno cheese melt and the pepperoni twist pretzels. I even like the non-fat original without salt. Non-pretzel lovers can opt for a scoop of Haagen Daz ice cream.
