9 Fantastic Disneyland Snacks You Need ASAP

Snacks and theme parks go hand-in-hand, and Disneyland is certainly filled with opportunities for quick eats. Whether you are considering snacks as part of a larger budget or replacing meals to tighten your belt for your Disney vacation, the delicious munchies are a great option. Plus, they will be devoured by everyone in the family!

While you can see snack carts by just meandering around the parks, it’s best to know what is available regularly and seasonally. Plus, it’s nice to have an idea of where to head first when you get to the park to grab your favorite bite. In this post, you’ll find some classic snack options (that happen to be my favorites) as well as seasonal delights in Disneyland Resort that will tempt you no matter when you’re visiting!

Helpful Tip: Before we dig into the snacks, you need to know about The Disneyland Resort Mobile Application! It’s important for foodies because of the Mobile Order feature, available at several quick service dining options in both parks. Choose a timeframe (either immediately or ahead of time) in which your party will pick up its food. 

Also, you can use the food filter on the map in the app to quickly identify carts and restaurants that use Mobile Ordering. Be sure to download the Disneyland App for the most up-to-the-minute tracking of attraction wait times, showtimes, character visits, and more!

Classic Snacks — Available in Both Parks

From cotton candy to hot dogs to coffee, the classic snacks of Disney can be found just about anywhere in the park as long as there is a cart. Nonetheless, this food group deserves to be highlighted, especially since you’ll see the latest merchandise featuring the whole snack crew (don’t forget to check out the stores!).

Churros

You know them, you love them, and yet they seem so rare outside of theme parks. Plus, the cinnamon-sugar fried goodness of churros is always better in the middle of the Disneyland experience!

The fresh dough is baked with garlic and herbs then topped with sharp cheddar cheese, making it a delicious snack all on its own.

Mickey-shaped and Seasonal Flavor Beignets (French Market Restaurant)

To get to the bar portion, you can either curve up toward Blue Bayou Restaurant and follow the path past the bathrooms — when you see the covered patio and a long line next to the kiosk’s sign, you’ve found the place! If you’re coming from Critter Country or Haunted Mansion, curve along the mansion’s line toward the train station. Walk just a little past the station’s entrance along the covered patio seating area until, once again, you see that line at the Mint Julep Bar.

Additionally, if the bar is under renovation or close, you can head into French Market Restaurant for at least the Mint Julep!

What is a Beignet?

A little piece of New Orleans, the classic beignet is a doughy, fried pastry coated in powdered sugar. They are not quite as thick as doughnuts but may remind you of “donut holes.”

At the Mint Julep Bar, you can purchase either a 3-pack or 6-pack of Mickey-shaped “classic” beignets. Ideal treats to gobble up yourself or share with the whole party, these doughy, powder sugar-coated will transport you to the south. Plus, you can opt for the seasonal flavor! Butterscotch beignets, also available in 3- or 6-pack options, came on the scene in 2019, and more flavors are expected to make their way to the Mint Julep Bar for holidays and celebrations. 

Of note, you can make these a breakfast snack. That’s how they were intended to be eaten, anyway! Mint Julep Bar opens at Disneyland Park open daily, so make a bee-line to grab a bite and hop on some of the biggest name attractions in the park, including Haunted Mansion, Indiana Jones^TM Adventure, Splash Mountain, and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.
