When traveling through the Disney parks, you might be wondering which snacks are actually worthy of buying and trying. That’s why we’re here to tell you which snacks are totally worth it at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
If you’ve ever been to Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios, you’ll know that with the multitude of menus, snacks, bars and quick-service stands, snack-time can be a little overwhelming. Since Disney is not a place you have the chance to visit every day (unless it is, and in that case bring us with you,) there are so many iconic snacks and foods that everyone wants to try. We’re going to ease your decision-making by providing a list of 10 snacks at Hollywood Studios that we think are worth your money.
1. Totchos (Woody’s Lunch Box)

It’s potato barrels (better known as “tater tots” covered in beef and bean chili, shredded cheese, signature queso with tomatoes and corn chips. On top, there’s a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of green onions. What’s more? It also serves a vegan version! What’s not to love? For only $9.99, you can purchase either variation and it will be more than enough to share. We think totchos are absolutely worth the recognition they receive, and the money out of our pockets.
2. Carrot Cake Cookie (Trolley Car Café)

Not only is it soft and moist on the outside, but the cream cheese filling on the inside really elevates this snack. Some might argue it’s just a cake in the shape of a cookie, but we don’t mind whatever you want to call it, that won’t change how delicious it is! Since the Trolley Car Café is actually Hollywood Studios’ Starbucks location, you can pair this carrot cake cookie with a drink of your choice that feels familiar. Starbucks and sweets in the most magical place on earth sounds like a win-win! Not only that, this cookie is quite large and only $4.99. So you must be asking yourself, “is this cookie really worth it?” We say, yes!
3. Funnel Cake (Epic Eats)
Funnel Cake. Photo: @flamingoinfantasylandYou really can’t ever go wrong with a funnel cake. Sweet fried dough with mountains of powdered sugar and a variety of toppings is not an easy snack to pass up on, especially from Epic Eats. Epic Eats has a few adaptations of the classic funnel cake, making this snack a step-up from your average park bite. The flavors rotate depending on the season or if any new and exciting rides/themed lands are opening up, but you can always get a plain funnel cake with powdered sugar if that’s what you prefer. We highly recommend the funnel cake with cookies ‘n’ cream and soft serve vanilla ice cream. This is definitely a snack you’ll want to consider sharing with others because a few bites will be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. Depending on which funnel cake you choose, the price ranges from $6.79-$8.49. Not bad for a super filling treat!
4. Bavarian Pretzel (Baseline Taphouse)

Photo: @vegandisneyworldYou might recall from one of our previous articles, Best Bars and Lounges in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we said a good enough reason to even make a stop a Baseline Taphouse is the Bavarian pretzel. We described it as “a soft, doughy, salty pretzel served with beer-cheese fondue and spicy mustard.” Is your mouth watering yet? Much like a lot of the other snacks in Hollywood Studios, this one is meant to be shared! We think the sizing and taste of Disney food products really does make up for the amount you spend on them, and with this pretzel you’ll be thinking the same. This snack will run you $9.00, and will result in immense happiness and a full stomach!
5. Lunch Box Tarts (Woody’s Lunch Box)
Lunch Box Tart. Photo: @boujiebites__Think “Pop-Tarts” but a thousand times better (no hate to Pop-Tarts, but if you ever try a lunch box tart you’ll understand.) Woody’s Lunch Box serves a variety of lunch box tarts, the daily flavors including banana-peanut butter fudge, chocolate-hazelnut, lemon-blueberry and raspberry. Banana-peanut butter fudge is stuffed with, you guessed it, peanut butter and chocolate fudge, and has a layer of banana fondant with banana chips on top. The chocolate-hazelnut flavor is stuffed with chocolate hazelnut filling and coated in maple fondant and candied bacon. The lemon-blueberry tart has a blueberry filling and frosting with a hint of lemon, and the raspberry flavor is filled with raspberry marmalade, and topped with strawberry fondant. You’re likely to find a lunch box tart for everyone at only $4.29, so it is definitely worth it in our book.
6. Jack Jack’s Num Num Cookie (Market)

This is a large delicious chocolate chunk cookie. It’s a very rich and filling snack as well. The aroma is really what draws you in as they are baked fresh at the Market. We’d say it’s adjacent to a “cookie pie” or “cookie skillet,” as it is served warm. This means if you’ve got littles ones, they’ll probably have gooey chocolate all over their hands and mouth, but if you give it a try your tastebuds will be thanking you (and you’ll understand why the kids love it so much!) This snack can be purchased for $6.19, and we highly suggest you try it.
7. Ronto Wrap (Ronto Roasters)

You could definitely consider this a meal, but if you’re sharing it, consider it a snack! A Ronto wrap contains roasted pork, grilled pork sausage, peppercorn sauce, and tangy slaw wrapped in pita bread. The sausage is super juicy and flavorful, and the slaw adds the perfect amount of moisture without making the pita soggy. Good news for those who don’t eat meat, Ronto Roasters has a plant-based wrap as well! This wrap has grilled zucchini as the sausage substitution, as well as chickpea-onion slaw, garlic-tahini sauce and fresh cilantro. You can purchase a Ronto wrap for $12.99 or it’s veggie-based counterpart for $11.99.
8. Wookiee Cookie (Backlot Express)

The Wookiee Cookie contains sweet vanilla cream sandwiched between two soft oatmeal cookies, and it is garnished with a milk chocolate sash. The oatmeal cookies are perfectly “chewy” (get it, like Chewbacca) every time. Though they are a bit dense, the airy filling pairs perfectly with the cookies themselves. Not to mention, the theme of the cookie is just adorable, representing some of our favorite Star Wars characters! The Wookiee Cookie can be purchased for $6.29, which is a fair price considering you’re actually getting two cookies!
9. Outpost Popcorn Mix (Kat Saka’s Kettle)
Outpost Popcorn. Photo: @disneysnacktimeWe think flavored popcorn is pretty much universally liked. Popcorn itself is pretty bland, so when you have the opportunity to add flavor, it can be whatever you like, salty or sweet! The outpost popcorn mix combines sweet and spicy flavors, and is a colorful way to brighten your day even more in the park! The purple popcorn tastes like grape, while the red has a spicy cinnamon flavor, reminiscent of Big Red gum. Surprisingly these flavors work together, and it’s a fun variety for when you’re not sure which genre of snack you want! Outpost popcorn mix can be purchased for $6.49, and like usual is a shareable snack.
10. Green and Blue Milk (Milk Stand)
Milk. Photo: @onceupon_thesteidlesHear us out. It’s technically not a snack, but there was absolutely no way we couldn’t include it. It seems as though trying either green or blue milk (or both) is a Disney rite of passage. These Star Wars themed drinks are a super fun way to feel refreshed, but for adults they can also come as an alcoholic beverage! The blue milk is a plant-based blend of coconut and rice milk, mixed with the flavors of dragon fruit, pineapple, lime and watermelon. To make it an adult beverage, Bacardi Rum is added. The green milk, however, has a more citrusy flavor, containing the same plant-based blend of milks, but instead highlighting the flavors of mandarin orange, passion fruit, grapefruit and orange blossom. Green milk becomes an alcoholic beverage by adding Corazon Blanco Tequila. The regular milks go for $8.49, and the alcoholic milks will cost you $15.00. So while this isn’t really a snack, we recommend it for the taste, the photo opportunities and the aesthetic. Yes, the $8.49 milk is actually worth it.
Now that you know which snacks in Hollywood Studios are actually worth your bucks, we encourage you to try as many as you can! There really is no feeling like snacking on delicious food in the happiest place on earth, knowing your money was well-spent. Before you go to Hollywood Studios, be sure to check and see if you’ll need to pre-order any of these snacks through the My Disney Experience App. We hope this list helped, happy snacking!
