I’m going to be honest, when I think about Hollywood Studios, the first thing that doesn’t come to mind are snacks.
For a park that has Star Wars Galaxy Edge, Rock’n Roller Coaster, and Tower of Terror, you would think there would be some equally as awesome snacks.
Unfortunately, there are only a handful worth trying.
So to help you save your money by not wasting it on poor snack choices, here are the 5 best Hollywood Studios snacks that are worth trying in 2023.
Just note that a lot of snacks at Hollywood Studios tend to be seasonal or short lived but I can almost guarantee that the ones below are here to stay.
Best Snacks at Hollywood Studios (2023)
Here are my top picks that you must snack on while at Disney’s Hollywood Studios:
1. Jack Jack Num Num Cookie
After hearing the rave reviews about this cookie at Pixar Pier at Disney’s California Adventure, I was excited to learn that it has made it way to the east coast.
With the Jack Jack Num Num Cookie, you’ll get a huge, warm, chocolate chip cookie that’s big enough to share with 2 to 3 people.
The only negative about this cookie is that sometimes they will be pretty dry if you catch it at the wrong time.
You can find this right before the entrance of Toy Story Land. Technically, it’s right across the old entrance of Toy Story Midway Mania before it moved.
2. Carrot Cake Cookie (Carrot Cake Whoopie Pie)
This is the last OG Hollywood Studios snack that you can still enjoy. Now although the photo above is a little outdated, the cookie itself will not disappoint, especially if you love carrot cake.
What you get is two soft carrot cake cookies (taste more like cupcake/muffin tops) and a rich serving of cream cheese icing.
So good!
You can get Carrot Cake Cookie from Trolly Car Cafe (aka Starbucks).
3. Lunch Box Tart
At first bite, I wasn’t impressed by the tart. But after my second one, I really started to appreciate this treat.
Sweet, soft, and delicious. Literally tastes like a gourmet Pop-Tart.
There are two choices, a seasonal one (lemond blueberry pictured above) and chocolate hazelnut.
You can try it at Woody’s Lunch Box in Toy Story Land.
4. Peanut Butter and Jelly Milkshake
Peanut butter milkshake that’s literally mixed with grape jelly. Only thing missing is two pieces of white bread.
Although this is a staple at 50’s Prime Time Cafe, you can actually order this at the bar, no reservation needed. The hardest part would be trying to find a seat.
5. Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich
This is more of a bonus snack only because you can find this at Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. With this, you can get your choice of scooped ice cream sandwiched between two soft, freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.
You can find this snack at Hollywood Scoops which is right before the entrance of Tower of Terror.
6. Green or Blue Milk
Delicious and refreshing, plant-based blend of coconut and rice milk with unique citrus and tropical flavors. The only downside is that it’s a tiny portion for $8.
Also I’m Team Blue all the way.
Get this from the Milk Stand at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
7. Outpost Mix
A sweet and faintly spicy, colorful kettle corn that’s a nice change of pace from the normal buttered popcorn scattered throughout the park.
Get this from Kat Saka’s Kettle inside Batuu.
8. Ronto Wrap
Roasted Pork, grilled pork sausage, peppercorn sauce, and tangy slaw wrapped in a Pita Bread. Honestly, I prefer this to any other quick service options available in Batuu.
Get this from Ronto Roasters inside Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
9. Ronto Morning Wrap
This breakfast Ronto Wrap is made with scrambled eggs, pork sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and a peppercorn sauce, all wrapped in a soft pita bread.
I honestly might even like this more than the normal Ronto Wrap. Regardless, this is hands down one of the best breakfast options at Hollywood Studios (or even Disney World)
10. POG Gelato
This passion fruit, orange, and guava sorbet is so creamy, sweet, and delicious. If you love the popular POG juice you’d find around Disney World property, then you’ll absolutely love this sweet treat. Best of all, it’s plant-based!
Get this from the Vivoli Gelato Grand Avenue Gelato Cart near Muppet*Vision 3D.
11. Bavarian Pretzel
Warm, massive pretzel paired with beer cheese and spicy mustard. It’s just a bigger and better Mickey Pretzel.
Get this from Baseline Tap House.
12. Totchos
Sure it can be a meal, but I truly consider this a great, savory, and filling snack.
Totchos consist of tater tots topped with beef and bean chili, shredded cheese, signature queso, tomatoes and Corn Chips finished with a heaping of sour cream.
Get this from Woody’s Lunch Box.
13. Cold Brew Black Caf
This Disneyland favorite beverage is made with Joffrey’s Coffee cold brew topped with sweet cream cheese and chocolate puffs. The Spiked Cod Brew Black Caf has a splash of Godiva Chocolate Liqueur.
Although not as good as the frozen viking coffee, this cold brew is a tasty, caffeinated alternative to most things found on Batu such as Blue Milk. I just wish they gave you a lot more sweet cream cheese.
Get this from Kat Saka’s Kettle inside Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge.
14. Funnel Cake
If you ever walked past Indiana Jones, chances are you’ll smell hot and fresh funnel cakes.
There’s not much to say about this besides the fact that once you see someone walking by with a funnel cake in their hand, your tastebuds will somehow urge you to make your way to Epic Eats.
15. Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich
This is another hidden gem lunch option that I hope is here for the long run.
The Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich is made with buffalo chicken, Monterey cheese, provolone, cheddar, and cream cheese sandwiched between two toasted sourdough bread slices.
Each sandwich is served with a side of buffalo sauce to dip but I recommend that you mix that sauce with some ranch for the ultimate bite.
Get this from ABC Commissary (which also happens to be my favorite spot to beat the heat).

I just tried to order the PB and J shake at the Prime Time Cafe bar and they said they no longer serve anything from the kitchen anymore. Which is so sad because I love that milkshake so much! (1/8/23)
Diana
I am eating the jack jack cookie right now and it’s….just a big dry cookie. Don’t recommend!
