Hey all! We are headed down in a couple of days and are doing Mk for the first time in years. We usually do the MNSSHP and MVMCP at MK, so haven't actually been on a regular day in probably 5-6 years. This trip, we decided to go ahead and do MK. We almost always do Cosmic Rays for dinner, and sometimes do the Village Haus, but other than that, it's been so long since I've searched for snacks and places to eat at MK. We have reservations at BOG for dinner this time.

What are your favorite places to snack? Any special bakeries or hidden treats?

And what about late morning snack, and lunch? I'm thinking the Columbia Harbor House for lunch.

Would love any ideas or recommendations!

My absolute favorite is the Nutella and Fruit Waffle at Sleepy Hollow. It's a wonderful sweet snack to share between 2 people. For my boys it's their Funnel Cakes (one with strawberries and one without) - they're not good at sharing :blush:

My favorite MK treat is the Citris Swirl. (DH is on Team Dole Whip.) Columbia Harbor House is our favorite MK lunch spot.

Vote us in for the Citrus Swirl as well.

We also loved the strawberry swirl, but sadly, it is no more :(

Dole float for sure for me! I also really like the cinnamon rolls and lefou's brew at Gaston's tavern. We almost always grab a snack from Big Top Treats in the Storybook Circus area. Lots of cookies, dipped marshmallows, and dipped apples. The kids love picking something with fun decorations.

That sounds fun! We are definitely planning on hitting the circus area this time. We've never taken the time to stop there. The kids will love that!

As much as I love food that many consider "fancy", when it comes to a snack in MK, we love getting popcorn and a soda. It is our go to MK snack.

I am not a fan of pineapple, so I don't do Dole Whips.

Absolutely! WDW has the best popcorn of any I've tried. That smell calls to me when I'm waiting for a parade to start.

I can't resist a Mickey soft pretzel.

Egg rolls from the wagon in Adventureland are great.

Dole whip.

Soft serve vanilla hot fudge sundae from Auntie Gravity's or the window in Fantasyland next to Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

I want to try the waffle with Nutella sandwich on my next trip. It looks amazing!

Ooohhh! My son LOVES pretzels. Are these available at a certain location? Or just carts throughout the park? Yum!

For the MK, Columbia HH is great along with any of the popcorn vendors. If you want a great burger try the Plaza. We found that little gem two trips ago and now call it a favorite !! Root beer floats are pretty atop my list too !! :mickey:
