food IS a theme park
There are SO many great places to grab a snack when you’re visiting Disney Springs.
Disney Springs
There’s the ever-popular Gideon’s Bakehouse, the delicious Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew, and of course, the incredibly inventive Salt & Straw. If you want Dole Whip, you could hit Swirls on the Water, or if you’re in the mood for cookies without the wait, the Cookie Bar at Summer House on the Lake is a great option. But right now, one Disney Springs snack spot is temporarily closed!
There’s one Disney World snack spot we get to visit almost every single month of the year…
HELLO handsome!
…yep, we’re talking about Gideon’s Bakehouse! This spot in Disney Springs has different seasonal cookies each month, and any time there’s a new one, we make it a point to stop by and try it out. It’s an incredibly popular spot, and the line to get in can be a multi-hour wait on the busiest days. But is that line worth the trouble for the NEW February cookie? Let’s find out!
You won’t go hungry in Disney World…we PROMISE.

Especially in the month of February, there are SO many limited-time treats that you couldn’t possibly try them all in a week-long vacation. With Black History Month and Valentine’s Day, we’ve been running around all over the parks to test out the latest creations. And for one offering, we headed over to Disney Springs!
Heading to Disney Springs soon? There’s one place we almost always recommend for the best sweet treats!

That’s right, we’re talking about Gideon’s Bakehouse! The beloved cookie shop is incredibly popular and usually has a long line out the door filled with visitors waiting to buy multiple half-pound cookies. We talk about Gideon’s a LOT because it’s one of our favorite spots, and if you’re a big Gideon’s fan as well, we’ve got an announcement to make!
Menu items come and go all the time in Disney World.

Sometimes we get really attached to a snack, entree, or dessert, and then Disney cruelly snatches it away from us…but by now we’ve gotten used to it. The good news is that some foods also rotate seasonally, so we can comfort ourselves by knowing they’ll come back around in the future. And that’s exactly what happened with one of our favorite eats in Disney Springs!
Love desserts? If so, you might find yourself in a smidge bit of trouble in Disney World…because that place is FILLED with sweets.
Disney Springs
Just in the past few months we’ve eaten cakes, cookies, ice cream treats, and so much more. There’s always something sugary and delicious to snack on in the parks, resorts, or Disney Springs! And recently, we stopped by one popular dessert spot because their holiday treats were simply too adorable to resist.
It’s December! Can you believe we’re almost to the end of 2023?

Disney has a lot of exciting projects in store for 2024, but before we get there, there’s plenty to experience throughout the resort for December. We’re especially loving the Christmas Tree Stroll in Disney Springs and all the holiday snacks you can grab, and now another two — maybe the best ones of the year — have finally arrived!
Disney Springs is home to many of our favorite restaurants.

And now that it’s the holiday season, it’s also home to one of our favorite free activities — the Christmas Tree Stroll. But there are also plenty of special holiday offerings that you won’t want to miss, like the new Dole Whip Flight at Swirls on the Water!
WELCOME, spooky friends, to Halloween snack season!
Halloween in Magic Kingdom
Disney recently released all the new Halloween snacks we’re able to get in the parks this year (and we’ve already checked out all the ones at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party — these are different!), and we’re on a mission to try them on. Come with us to head over to Disney Springs to try a new sundae!Â
We’ve tried some UNUSUAL snacks in Disney World over the years.
Disney Springs
From treats that didn’t turn out exactly like their picture-perfect marketing promised to eats with some really weird flavors and ingredient choices, we don’t shy away from being brave during our food reviews. But the latest unique treat we tried didn’t take much bravery at all…because honestly, it sounded like a really good idea!
