REVIEW: Disneyland Took the Cream Cheese Pretzel and Said “Make It Christmas”

We went to Disneyland’s first ever Merriest Nites last night, and we also visited the Festival of Holidays in Disney California Adventure.

Sleeping Beauty Castle

So basically we’ve officially embraced the holiday spirit in both Disneyland parks, especially since there’s a LOT of delicious food available at both of these events. Between the holiday Marketplace booths at Festival of Holidays and the 20 specialty eats and treats at Merriest Nites…we’re feeling a little stuffed right about now. Let’s take a look at one of the most interesting snacks we tried at Merriest Nites!

Have you long loved stopping by Kringla Bakeri og Kafe in Epcot’s Norway Pavilion and ordering a Rice Cream, Lefse, Berry Cream Puff, or School Bread?

And if so, were you bummed out these past several months while the Bakeri was closed for refurbishment? Because even though you could purchase select offerings at the temporary Midnattsol Bakeri kiosk, it just wasn’t the same… right?

Well, be bummed no more! Because Kringla Bakeri og Kafe has reopened as of today! The refurbishment is over, and we can now see the results of the work.

Although, before we could do that, there was a Viking Guard standing by, protecting Kringla into the afternoon of today’s reopening!

Snack Series: Cream Cheese Pretzel at Disneyland’s Refreshment Corner

By AJ 8 Comments

Today we’re back in Disneyland visiting a classic Main Street location — Coca Cola Refreshment Corner!

Outside View

Right next to new fan favorite, Jolly Holiday Bakery and Cafe, this is the place to take care of any hot dog craving you may be having.

But it’s another iconic snack that we are after today! One you can enjoy in both Disneyland and Disney World! Read on…

Atmosphere

This spot may look familiar to Disney World fans. It’s in the same location as — and looks very similar to — Casey’s Corner in Magic Kingdom!

Everything about Refreshment Corner points to the theme of turn of the century Small Town America. And since Coca Cola is the corporate sponsor for the counter service spot, you’ll also see that famous logo throughout the space.
