The Best Foods At Disney World
There’s actually really very delicious food at Disney World! As a food lover, these are my favorite foods from all the parks.
We just got back from a Disney trip, and the food at Disney has been a topic of continuous conversation between the friends in my life who are just-coming-home-from-Disney or soon-going-to-Disney.
Disney people (as in, people who really really love Disney) will tell you that the food at Disney World is delicious.
God bless them, but how can we trust them? How can we know they aren’t being blinded by their love of the most magical place on earth?
I do have an appreciation for Disney World, but I am decidedly a food person before I’m a Disney person, which means I have a (self-declared) unbiased perspective on the subject and authority to write this post!
Yes, there are plenty of overpriced and underwhelming Mickey pretzels and Dole whip stands. I said it.
But even for us food snobs, some of the food at Disney is really actually very delicious.
A Disney trip probably isn’t going to be your most gourmet experience ever, but I promise there are some gems. Let’s find you some really delicious little bites! I love this for all of us.
Have a great trip! (And if you have a favorite to add, please share in the comments!)
Located at the Joffrey’s in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom.
I thought it was going to be gimmicky but this was not a drill. 10 stars. Eating this may have been one of my favorite food experiences at Disney. It was dense and heavy, but also flakey and layered all at the same time. (And a note to say that every coffee and every pastry I had from a Joffrey’s on every trip has been very, very good. The donuts, the scones, all of it.)

I’m sorry, but these were incredible. So good, in fact, that we went back for a second order right after we finished the first. The sauce was so good that I walked back up to little stand and tell them how much I loved it like a real food weirdo.

These have to be at the top of my list. Hot, crispy, and a little chewy on the inside with a rotating selection of dipping sauces. Also gluten free! This was one of my favorite things I ate at all of WDW.
Located at Satu’li Canteen in Pandora at Animal Kingdom.
This is a build-your-own menu and it’s great. We got the , . The popping bubbles are a bit strange and unnecessary, but this is Disney so I will allow it. This was one of the best “real meals” I had at Disney!

Whoa. This is meaty, cheesy, perfectly grilled. Dunked in the tomato soup standing next to Slinky Dog… 5 stars.
Located at all parks.
You can get at all the parks, and honestly, you should. The warmer, the crunchier, the better. Please especially get them if you’re there on a rainy day. They smell good, they taste good, it’s a moment.
Located at Choza de Margarita or La Cantina de San Angel in Mexico at EPCOT.
Mexico in EPCOT is where it’s at. Top picks: cucumber margarita, tostada de pollo, and a chicken rice bowl with cotija, pickled onions, and a little side of tomatillo salsa. I am hungry right now just thinking of it.
Located at the Regal Eagle in the America section of the World Showcase at EPCOT.
I don’t consider myself a big meat lover, but this , with a side of onion rings, was really delicious. Lots of sauces to choose from, and you might consider a side of mac and cheese with the whole thing.
Located at Le Petit Cafe in the Riviera Resort.
Every time we’ve gone to Disney, we’ve stayed on the Skyliner and have ended up over at the Riviera resort for breakfasts. This little , from their coffee shop, was pretty much ideal in every way.
at Norway in EPCOT
It’s a cult favorite, but would be okay if I didn’t eat it again. It’s heavy and bready and just not my favorite.
everywhere around Disney
Controversial opinion but I think it’s over-hyped. It’s just not my favorite. If you must get it, the classic pineapple is the right move.
Woody’s Lunchbox at Hollywood
My good friends told me it’s the real deal. Pastry crust and yummy filling and everything. I’m going to need to try it on our next trip!
Carrot Cake Whoopie Pie
Trolley Car Cafe at Hollywood
It looks thick and yummy and it’s supposed to be a fan-favorite. I need to try it!
