food IS a theme park
From the new and noteworthy to the tried and true….
September DOLE Whip Flight
We’ve tasted EVERY snack around the Disney Springs shopping district to find out WHICH ones are actually worth your money.
There are LOTS of new things in Disney World these days.
Let’s dive in!
The theme parks are changing, hotels are under construction, and Disney is giving us tons of new treats to enjoy, so we might not notice all of those mountains of dirt around us. Honestly, we aren’t complaining in the slightest because two NEW croissants just dropped in Disney Springs. Are they just pretty, or do they taste good, too?
A popular Disney Springs dessert shop is turning 10 years old! While Gideon’s Bakehouse only opened its Disney Springs location in 2021, the local chain started in 2016 at East End Market.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
So to celebrate the special anniversary, Gideon’s Bakehouse is having some limited-edition baked goods and merch available exclusively at its East End location on Sunday, July 19th!
When we’re at Disney Springs, we love going to The BOATHOUSE for salty starters, fresh seafood, and decadent desserts. But when we stopped by The Boatique, the store inside The BOATHOUSE restaurant, a new snack stopped us in our tracks.
Sriracha Lime Popcorn
This is not a drill: The BOATHOUSE sells popcorn now! The BOATHOUSE has partnered with Central Florida Popcorn Co, a locally handcrafted small-batch popcorn maker, for three exclusive popcorn flavors you can only get at Disney Springs. So obviously, we had to try it!
We’re constantly on the lookout for new treats and souvenirs in Disney World!
Disney World Annual Pass
One of the best places to grab a snack or do some shopping during your vacation is Disney Springs. With dozens of restaurants and shops, there are SO many options to choose from. But now, there’s a new offering that combines snacks and souvenirs into one awesome bundle for Annual Passholders!
Don’t skip out on the seasonal or limited-time treats when you’re in Disney World…they might turn out to be some of the best things you eat all trip!
Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney Springs
And what’s one spot that does limited-time offerings incredibly well? Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney Springs! This cookie, cake, and coffee shop has specialty flavors available every month, and they’ve just revealed the treats for June. Let’s check out the list!
Oh Gideon’s Bakehouse, you have captured our hearts…and stomachs.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
This quirky bake shop is one of the most unique spots to grab a snack in Disney World, with its dark and broody theming and ridiculously long lines due to its popularity. The menu is laden with half-pound cookies, enormous cake slices, and fun coffee beverages, but the cookies are really the star of the show. We’ve been to Gideon’s Bakehouse countless times and tried every cookie on the menu, and now, we bring you the official ranking!
We are always trying snacks all around Disney so that you can make the best decisions about what is worth your time and money on your Disney vacation.
Disney Springs
And we recently stopped by Disney Springs to try a $25 sundae! Yes, you heard us right, $25 for an ice cream sundae, so let’s see if it was worth it. [Read more…]
Okay, so this post is for carnivores, and carnivores only.
Let’s eat some MEAT
Now, if you love meat, there are a lot of ways to grab some meaty snacks in Disney World. You could opt for a turkey leg (and if you do, we’ll try not to judge you). Or you could grab a hamburger at one of our favorite hotel restaurants. But if you’re craving even MORE meat, we’ll just tell you now that you need to head to Disney Springs.
It’s almost time for a big holiday…that’s right, it’s Easter week!
Hello, Easter Bunnies!
You might be surprised how much Disney World celebrates Easter. There’s usually a springtime parade on the actual holiday, and you can meet Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny in Magic Kingdom leading up to the big day. On top of that, you’ll find Easter-inspired treats around the property. Recently, we went to Disney Springs to review one such snack!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
