Magic Kingdom is by far the most iconic Disney park. Sure you can argue that Disneyland is more iconic and prestigious, but let’s be real, more people come to MK so by default, they’re a smidge better.
If there’s one thing that really gets me hyped when visiting Magic Kingdom it has to be snacks.
From Dole Whip and waffle sandwiches to ice cream sundaes and churros, there are so many delicious options that I believe everyone needs to try at least once.
Below, you’ll find 10 of my all time favorite snacks that you can get from Magic Kingdom.
What you won’t find are popcorn, Mickey Pretzels, and Mickey Bars only because you can find those throughout Disney property.
Best Snacks at Magic Kingdom (2021)
Here are my absolute favorite snack picks that you must try the next time you’re at Disney’s Magic Kingdom.
1. Fruit and Nutella Waffle Sandwich
I don’t care what anyone says but I’ll take this over a Dole Whip any day.
Hot and fresh waffle, topped with fresh strawberries and banana, and so much gooey Nutella.
It literally can’t be beat. It’s honestly a solid snack or even sweet lunch. Either way you won’t be disappointed.
Plus, they even have one that’s topped with sweet and spicy chicken and slaw. It’s great!
You can get this snack from Sleepy Hollow Inn right near Liberty Square.
2. Dole Whip Float
(I know the image is from Pineapple Lanai at the Polynesian, but the float is literally the same lol.)
With the Dole Whip Float, you’ll get a combination of pineapple ice cream and fresh pineapple juice.
I recommend getting your Dole Whip swirled with vanilla ice cream because it helps reduce the intensity of the pineapple overload.
You can get this from Aloha Isle in Adventureland.
3. Pineapple Upside-Down Cake
What I love about this is that you get a deliciously moist pineapple upside-down cake topped with your choice of Dole Whip.
It’s a fantastic snack that’s both filling and refreshing.
Plus, it makes good use of one (1) Disney Dining Plan snack credit.
You can find this at Aloha Isle in Adventureland.
4. Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake
This is one of the most underrated and forgotten snacks at Disney World, mainly because you have to make a reservation at Liberty Tree Tavern to eat it.
But if you love warm, gooey cakes, then it’s definitely worth it.
With this dessert, you’ll get a warm vanilla cake filled with gooey toffee that’s drizzled with chocolate and caramel and topped with vanilla ice cream.
Pure perfection.
5. The Plaza Sundae
I dare you to walk down Main Street USA and not immediately turn your head to the right once you smell freshly baked waffle bowls.
I recommend you either try the All American Sundae or the Plaza Sundae (pictured).
And if you love warm peanut butter topping, I recommend you get your sundae smothered in it.
But of course, there’s always hot fudge.
You can get this from the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor.
6. Cheshire Cat Tail
A new discovery for myself, this Cheshire Cat Tail is essentially an extra long warm chocolate danish twist topped with colorful icing.
You can find this from Cheshire Cafe right by the Teacups.
7. Red Velvet Mickey Cake Pop
Honestly, this is probably the most hidden of all gems on this list.
Super moist red velvet (or chocolate) cake covered in chocolate and finished with two marshmallow Mickey ears.
You can get this from either the Main Street Confectionary or Big Top Treats.
8. Churro Ice Cream Sandwich
Sometimes, when you catch it right, you’ll get vanilla ice cream sandwiched between two soft, and sometimes warm cinnamon churros.
Other times the churro is a little hard.
Either way, it’s a pretty tasty snack.
You can get this from Sleepy Hollow Inn.
9. Warm Giant Cinnamon Roll
The breakfast of champions.
A HUGE, warm cinnamon roll smothered in icing.
It’s not Cinnabon but it’s an acceptable compromise.
You can enjoy this at Gaston’s Tavern in New Fantasyland.
10. Loaded Buffalo Tater Tots
Sure, these can be a meal, but I find theme to be an excellent salty snack choice.
With this snack, you’ll get tater tots smothered in hot sauce and buffalo chicken with a little drizzle of ranch and a sprinkle of celery and bleu cheese crumbles.
You can enjoy this at Friar’s Nook in Fantasyland.

Updated less than 3 weeks ago and you’re telling me that some of these snacks make good use for a snack credit. Dining Plans have been suspended since last year.

Sarah, you need to not be a snob. This helped me get the most out of my disney experience. Clearly the person that made this put a lot of time and effort into it.😁

I’m with Sarah. Seems like a great list if you went in 2019. Only 4 of the 1 are currently available in Magic Kingdom and one of those (Cheshire cat tail) isn’t available at the place he mentioned, but is at the Pinocchio village haus. The Dole whip float, toffee cake, and tots are the others you can get.)
