Welcome to our latest roundup of What’s New in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
We have a LOT to chat about today — including LOTS of menu updates — so let’s dive right in!
Hollywood Studios Food Update
Buckle up, because we have SO MANY menu changes and updates to talk about!
Hollywood Boulevard
Let’s kick things off on Hollywood Boulevard, where Trolley Car Cafe has added a Poison Apple Mousse for $5.29!
This treat has an apple purée and chocolate mousse filling, with a dark chocolate mirror glaze coating and comes on top of a cookie with an Oreo crumble. This treat was absolutely delicious and we highly recommend it! It was new during our latest visit, so hopefully, it’ll stick around for a while.

The pop-up bar near Hollywood Brown Derby is now serving Witches Brew, which features Bulleit Rye Whiskey, apple cider, and ginger beer served with a poison apple glow cube for $16.75.
Sunset Boulevard
Cast Members for a few dining locations on Hollywood Boulevard were sporting some new costumes! Aren’t they cute??
We found several additions and price changes at Rosie’s All American Cafe! First up, Very Berry Lemonade has increased in price from $10.75 to $12, while the Captain Morgan Fruit Punch Cocktail is up from $9.50 to $11, and the Red Stag Black Cherry Bourbon Lemonade is up from $10.25 to $13.
The Key Lime Verrine is no longer available, but in its place is the Graveyard Worms ‘n’ Dirt, which we tried! This dessert consists of crumbles of chocolate cookies with layers of chocolate pudding and whipped cream topped with some big, juicy gummy worms and colorful sprinkles.
Though we could’ve done without the boba pearls on top, the dessert was still pretty good. You can try it for $4.99!
Elsewhere on the menu, the Beso Del Sol Sangria has been replaced by Opici Family Sangria for $11. Also, Chicken Nuggets went up in price to $10.99 from $9.99, Milk and Chocolate Milk went up to $4.19 from $3.79, Bud or Bud Light went up to $8.25 from $7.75, and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale went up to $10 from $9.75.
Catalina Eddie’s has experienced its own set of menu changes as well! First of all, the Candy Corn Verrine has replaced the Lemon Cheesecake Verrine.
The pretty white, orange and yellow layers of cake, whipped cream and pudding were yummy (but oddly didn’t taste like candy corn), and we enjoyed the spider web garnish as well.

Continuing or journey through menu updates, we found some menu changes at Woody’s Lunch Box as well. The wording for Lunch Box Tart changed again to list a Seasonal tart instead of Raspberry.

Echo Lake

They’ve removed the Vegetarian Caprese Sandwich and Key Lime Verrine and added the Graveyard Worms ‘n’ Dirt.

Over at Oasis Canteen, we spotted the new Sweet Poison drink for $11.71 (not including the glow cube). This drink features a blend of vanilla vodka, Fireball, apple cider, and a cinnamon stick.
It honestly tasted like Halloween in a cup! The spice of the Fireball, apple cider, and cinnamon stick really compliment each other, leaving this drink a rather cinnamony. But, the vanilla vodka takes this flavor down a bit, so it isn’t too overwhelming!
