You’re Walking Right Past the BEST Pizza in Animal Kingdom

By 1 Comment

Okay, let’s face it — not all Disney World pizza is great. In fact, a lot of it is just…well, it’s enough to scratch the itch, we suppose.

Terra Treats

There are standout pizzas, though, including the pizza at Via Napoli at EPCOT, but pizza like that tends to be the exception to the rule — AND requires an advance dining reservation. However, we just found a quick-service pizza in Disney World that totally surprised us — in a good way.

It’s no secret that Disney World vacations can be exhausting, and if you’re looking for coffee on your trip, you have quite a few different options!

Should you LEAVE Magic Kingdom to eat?

Disney’s Grand Floridian

While there are a few tasty snacks and treats inside this popular park, we usually recommend heading out to one of the nearby hotels for your meals. That’s not to say there isn’t good food in Magic Kingdom (although it’s not one of the best parks for foodies, in our opinion) — there’s just a lot of GREAT food at the hotel restaurants! Steakhouse 71, ‘Ohana, and California Grill are a few of our favorite sit-down restaurants, but what about counter-service meals? Come with us to test out a fast food-style restaurant that’s just a Monorail ride away from Magic Kingdom. [Read more…]
