food IS a theme park
The Fourth of July is celebrated in Disney World with fireworks and…food, of course!
So festive!
If you’re looking for some red, white, and blue eats, you can find limited-time treats and eats at Disney Parks, Disney Springs, and even Disney World hotels. So far, we’ve tried an Apple Pie Eclair, a 4th of July Liege Waffle, and even an ice cream sandwich, and now it’s time for some limited-time poutine!
You know what’s better than a donut? A NEW donut to try!
We love a new donut!
In Disney Springs, Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew is known for their delicious and unique donuts AND their cold brew, as well as their breakfast sandwiches (like the Grilled Cheeeeeese, and yes, it’s really spelled like that). They just announced the upcoming arrival of not one but TWO new donuts coming soon, so let’s get into it!
It’s not easy to find a Disney World snack under $5, but they do exist!
Can man live on bread alone? We think so.
In EPCOT, you can grab a Full Baguette from Les Halles Boulangerie for $3.50, or try the Carrot Cake Cookie from Trolley Car Cafe in Disney’s Hollywood Studios for $4.99. There’s another snack under $5 but we have to warn you — it can be a bit divisive!

Disney Springs is much more than just a place to shop for your Minnie Mouse Ears, M&Ms with YOUR FACE ON THEM, and candles that make your house smell like Disney World.
Disney Springs
You can also head to Disney Springs for over 50 different restaurants — some of them are actually better than the ones in the parks! (Sorry, not sorry.) In our expert opinion, there are some restaurants that are without a doubt must-try-best-meal-ever level restaurants, so if you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the choices in Disney Springs, we’ve got you!
The mischievous Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland has inspired some of our favorite Disney treats, like the Cat Tail from Cheshire Cafe in Magic Kingdom.
Cheshire Cat Tail
But if flaky pastries aren’t your thing, there’s another Cheshire Cat-inspired treat you can grab in Disney World right now! As a bonus — you don’t even need a park ticket to order it. But can it beat the Cat Tail?? Let’s find out!
Is it even a holiday in Disney World without new treats to try?
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
There are quite a few limited-edition Mother’s Day treats to try in Disney World, and so far we’ve really enjoyed sweets like the Jumbo Cupcake from BoardWalk Bakery. But we’re not done! It’s time to try not one…not two…but THREE tiny sweets at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort!
Disney World certainly likes to keep us on our toes, and they recently surprised us with a couple of MAJOR soft openings in EPCOT. Connections Café opened unexpectedly, which is the new Starbucks location in EPCOT. When we first went go check it out, the Connections Eatery (which shares a space with the Café) wasn’t quite ready for guests yet. But now that has CHANGED!
Connections Eatery
Connections Eatery also had a soft opening with its full menu available for guests to try! Of course we had to head inside to check out the space and try some of the eats. Should you add this new spot to your EPCOT food tour? And can the eats even compete with the rest of the amazing food in this park? We’re about to find out! [Read more…]
We’re trying out one of the most HIDDEN restaurants in Disney World!
Ultimate Grilled Cheese
If you’ve been to Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort, you might have tried out the Turf Club Bar and Grill or perhaps The Artist’s Palette. But, have you ventured to the tucked-away Chip ‘n’ Dale’s Café? This restaurant is hard to find but FEAR NOT! We’re taking you with us!
Disney Springs is home to so many incredible restaurants, from table service spots like Jaleo and Homecomin’ to quick service gems like the The Polite Pig and Blaze Pizza.
Disney Springs is a great place to spend your evening!
Gideon’s Bakehouse is not only well known to Orlando residents, but also to a lot of Disney World visitors who HAVE to make a stop for some delicious baked goods. If you have a sweet tooth, you might have tried one of their famous half-pound cookies! But if you’re in the mood for more of a breakfast-y sweet or if you don’t feel like waiting in a long line, there’s another Disney Springs location you might want to try — Everglazed Donuts!
Disney Springs is home to so many delicious spots to eat, and one more will be added to the list soon!
There is so much to see and do in Disney Springs!
Salt & Straw is a family-run ice cream business known for some super unique ice cream flavors, like Mushroom Ice Cream (yes!). While Disneyland already has a Salt & Straw location in Downtown Disney, it was previously announced that Disney World would also be getting a Salt & Straw location. Now we finally have an opening date!
