Get ready to inject some major excitement into your day — it’s time to talk SNACKS!

It’s been a long day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios — you’ve been able to successfully ride Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance AND Slinky Dog Dash (quite the achievement!), managed the heavy crowds and now your stomach is telling you during your hectic day, “Hey, it’s time for a snack!”

Instead of staying in the park, we’re here to tell you there are some GREAT snacking options actually worth leaving Disney’s Hollywood Studios for!

You won’t have to go very far for any one of these five treats. They’re all at hotels accessible via the Disney Skyliner, which you can board immediately from the park! Let’s take a closer look at a few of these snacks we think may be worth a side-trip.

Disney’s Riviera Resort

Vanilla and Citrus Crème Brûlée at Topolino’s Terrace

One of Disney World’s newest resorts, Disney’s Riviera Resort is the only resort on this list with TWO snacks we recommend trying. First we have to start with the Vanilla and Citrus Crème Brûlée at Topolino’s Terrace.

This tasty dessert has several sugary and sweet components, including morello cherry compote, strawberry foam, sugared beignets, and chocolate meringues. We find it to be very light and citrusy, with the real density coming from the donut hole-like beignets. The nice blend of caramelization and citrus flavors from the crème brûlée really add that “pop” to this dessert, making it one you should definitely make time to try. This crème brûlée is sold for $14.00.

Baked Brie at Bar Riva

This next treat comes with an added bonus — relaxation. We recommend heading to Bar Riva not only for the delicious Baked Brie (cheese counts as a treat, right?) but also for the awesome atmosphere. This open-air bar is poolside and could provide a nice change of pace from the heavy crowds and long lines at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

As for the snack itself, the Baked Brie is something you should absolutely try if you’re a cheese-lover! Served with a crostini and topped with confit tomatoes, this pastry has that gooey-on-the-inside, flaky-on-the-outside texture that should tempt park-goers away from the park, any time of the day. This poolside bar favorite can be bought for $13.49.

Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort

House-Made Coconut-Pineapple Bread Pudding at Sebastian’s Bistro

This Caribbean Beach Resort recommendation comes with a bit of a caveat — this treat is part of an all-you-care-to-enjoy meal. But hear us out! If you and your family are in the mood for a dinner break away from Disney’s Hollywood Studios, then this family-style, Caribbean and Latin-inspired dinner might be perfect for you.

Part of this dinner includes the House-Made Coconut-Pineapple Bread Pudding for dessert. The bread pudding comes topped with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream — the perfect treat to spoil yourself with after a long day at the parks and a hearty dinner. This bread pudding is comparable to the iconic ‘Ohana bread pudding and we feel this dessert is justification enough for a trip to Sebastian’s Bistro. The dinner itself goes for $35 per adult (plus tax and gratuity) and $19 per child ages 3-9 (plus tax and gratuity).

Disney’s Pop Century Resort

Tie-dye Cheesecake at Everything POP Shopping & Dining

Our next stop will be at one of the value resorts and home to a very colorful dessert — Disney’s Pop Century Resort. The Tie-dye Cheesecake at Everything POP Shopping & Dining has been around since the resort opened in 2003 and really fits the “pop culture throughout the decades” vibe the resort boasts.

The rainbow cheesecake simply sits atop a red velvet “crust,” but don’t be fooled by the simplicity — this unique cheesecake is delicious. It may look like Play-Doh, but it is actually very creamy, rich in flavor, and has that moist cake chaser that makes this a scrumptious reason to leave the park for a snack! The kaleidoscopic concoction of a dessert is also sold at the affordable price of $5.99.

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort

Cookies ‘n Cream Sundae Cupcake at Landscape of Flavors

Our last stop on the list takes us to Disney’s Art of Animation Resort and, specifically, Landscape of Flavors. While this food court can be hit-or-miss, we think the Cookies ‘n Cream Sundae Cupcake is worth checking out.

Another tight-budget snack option at $5.99, this unique dessert is a classic at Landscape of Flavors. It’s a chocolate cupcake topped with cookies ‘n’ cream buttercream, rainbow sprinkles, and chocolate ears. Perfect for the kiddos and parents alike, this visually appealing treat is great for anyone looking to satisfy that chocolate and cookies ‘n cream craving.

And there it is, five snacks worth leaving Disney’s Hollywood Studios for! You deserve a break from the hustle and bustle of a busy Hollywood Studios day, why not hop on the Skyliner and treat yourself?
