Travel with Lou around to Walt Disney World as he shares his Top 5 Snacks in the Magic Kingdom Under $5!
From sweet to savory, refreshing and sharable, you may discover a few tasty treats which are also some of Walt Disney World’s best values.
What’s YOUR favorite snack in the Magic Kingdom? Leave yours in the Comments below!
This made my stomach growl!! I can’t wait for my next WDW vacation…
Dole Whip Floats and Ice Coffee Floats!!!
I’d substitute the Sweet Cream Cheese Pretzel at the Lunching Pad and a Dole Whip for the baked potato and the sundae.
Hi Lou, this is bad for you but when I go to Disney I have to get both of them.
Pop Corn & also Cotton Candy…YUMMY!!!!!
Lv Lucille
Mickey Ice Cream Sandwich Lou!! How could this NOT make the honorable mentions list?!
My right ear is crying lol!
Itzakadoozy
can you use you dining plan for these?
I would consider it a snack (I believe it was $3.99?) but I love on Main Street walking into the bakery and getting a HUUUUUGE bag of Mickey Pretzels
, take them home and enjoy them for weeks!
The cookies in the Main Street Bakery
I feel bad for whoever was filming for Lou, I would have been starving watching him eat!
audio on this video is only on the left channel, no right channel audio
Funnel cake with strawberries and whipped cream!
yum! baked potatoes! I’m vegan so that would be perfect for me. WDW has something for everyone. Love you, Lou!
Love waffles at Magic Kingdom!
No question, our family’s go to snack under $5 – Dole Whip! Usually big enough for two people to share.
I rarely visit WDW without getting a Mickey Premium Bar – good AND good for you!
I wish Sleepy Hollow would bring back their freshly made caramel popcorn. The Germany pavilion in Epcot does a fine job but, as I recall, Sleepy Hollow was a little bit better.
Main Street Bakery Cinnamon Roll
Couple of questions what exactly is in the orange swirl and two why no dole whip or dole whip float.
No. 1 should be dole whip hands down. It’s not even up for debate.
The only thing we found under $5 was the ice cream and drinks, may have to go just one more time to hunt out these snacks!
Mickey Premium Bars are definitely my favorite snack! I have at least one a day when I’m in WDW!
Iced Coffee Floats you say!? I didn’t know those existed! I think I’ll need to pick one of those up next time I visit! In the meantime I’m going to have to say a popcorn from the beginning of Main Street USA followed by a Tofutti Ice cream root beer float to quench my thirst at the end at the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor!! It MUST be on Main Street USA..
We just return from the world on Saturday and haven’t had any of the ones on the list. We did have a Dole Whip which was very popular with my family.
Oh and the amazing cookies from the Bakery on Main Street.
Back when I worked at the Enchanted Tiki Room in 2007, there was a glazed nuts stand right nearby. SOO good. Forgot how much they cost, but I bought them the last week I worked there and they were worth it!!
Since then, I’ve visited and I think the cart was moved…
Egg role, near the tree house, or a orbit burger
How about the cinammon roll at the main street bakery.
I love the ice cream cookie sandwich at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments. It’s only $4.19 and it’s huge! You can find the iced coffee float here too for the same price. If you can spring the extra 99 cents, the Nutella and fresh fruit waffle sandwich is worth every penny of the $5.99 you pay.
have had all of these at least once except for the corn dogs,,have to give them a try,,,,thank you and YUM
!!!!
The waffles at Sleepy Hallow…
My favorite is the waffle bowl sundae from the ice cream parlor
Ack!! Just realized the issue with the audio. SO sorry about that (I reviewed it in a single earpiece) – It won’t happen again, I promise! Thanks for your patience
And sorry for any resulting hunger as well
Sweet and Spicy Waffle Sandwich @ Sleepy Hallow.
LOL Lou…That was probably one of the best days ever at MK.
Anything from the Main Street Bakery
Are the Mickey shaped soft pretzels in Disneyland too?
Lou,
That was such a delicious tour of treats!
My favorite snack seems to change with each trip to WDW. But, MK should find some way to bring back the Donald Duck Orange Juice Ice Pop. That is honestly still my favorite MK snack of all time.
have to say the one snack that i always look forward to on our return visits from the U K is Dole Whip, wow fantastic stuff.
mmmm!!! mmm! Corn Dogs and Water!! LOL ew!
The Dole Whip of course
What about the venerable churro?! No trip to WDW would be complete without buying a churro and having it stolen by a dive-bombing bird. We also love to share a bag of cinnamon-glazed almonds, although I don’t remember how much they cost–but who cares? A Dole whip is an absolute must as well!
There are 5 of us, so here are our picks…..
1. Choclate chip cookies with ice cream in center ( age 44)
2.carrot cake cookie,at H.S., Lou’s suggestion (age 47)
3.roasted nuts ( age 18)
4.churros (age 15)
5.egg roll at AK (age 12)
Keep the coming! I love these types of videos, leaving in 23 days too the world!
Oh I love these videos!
Pineapple Dole Whip!!
The Carrot Cake Cookies!!! MMMMMM!!!
The soft serve ice cream and slushie at Liberty square!
Skool bread in Norway, umm!
Awesome video, Lou! Would love to see more like these!!!
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What kind of list is this without a Dole Whip! Let’s nix the corn dogs and put the best snack at WDW on this list!
The cream cheese pretzel from Lunching Pad is my favorite.
One thing tht crossed my mond with tht big chick in background. In a Swartengger voice(thought it was funny). “I am going to devour that Castle and then I will East the Golfball at Epcot next”. just sayn.
The baked potato was great, but they charged extra for extra butter and sour cream.
yeah. I am huge fame of the Dole Whip aside from the restored orange Bird Citrus Swirl, And I know it’s above $5, but you gota get vid buying and eating a Tukey Leg and a Mickey Mouse Ice Cream bar. thx! And Yes the popcorn is great!
yeah I know you are grat guide. but on personal note. that Bug chick in the background all I could think,heard in my head was, in Aronlod voice, ” I am going to devour that castle, then for dinner I am going to eat the golf ball at EPCOT” lol
Wasn’t funny the first time you said it. Still isn’t funny.
Corn dog I love those
I know that I should try the ever popular Dole Whip, however, the Citris Swirl has always been my absolute favorite, and always wins out. Thanks alot Lou for making me drool!! Gotta get back soon…
How about 5 snacks that all add up to $5
Best is the chocolate covered frozen banana
Never had the dole whip I really want to try it because I’ve heard nothing but good things about it.
Im not sure if it’s above $5 but the ice cream sandwiches at the main street bakery delicious!!!!!!
There’s not much at Disney you could get for $1. Haha
$5.00 for a baked potato?
i want to go to disney world so badly!! wish i could go!
haha sad but true
My left speaker got jealous
I believe it is. I was there this summer and it was pretty cheap, and totally worth it. 2 scoops of ice cream and 2 big cookies.
Dont know if its under $5 but the dole whip near the swiss family robinson tree house is really good
I totaly agree with you thats my favorite snack to get. I think its under $5.00.
can you buy any of these snacks with the dining plan
i like corn nuggets
love how he lets us know its big enough to share but he is not going to
You can buy all of these snacks with snack points yes xx
Big enough to share….not that im going to…
when we were there i asked my sister for a bite of her sundae she nearly took my fingers off
I ope these snacks come with the annual season pass discount. I could get them even cheaper
Get me a Mickey Pretzel
I always go to Disney World thin, but I leave having gained 5 pounds. Totally worth it though.
Going back in October cant wait!, i love the Micky waffles at sleepy hollow. Also last time i went i dropped my ice-cream on the floor at Main Street Ice Cream Parlor, they man who worked there was kind enough to make me another one free of charge
not healthy mate ok for kids
I do agree that attractions do just occupy the time between eating!
did a pretzal really beat funnel cake
“Big enough to share.. Not that I’m going to.”
Haha poor camera man.
My husband and I are baseball fans and love Casey’s. That’s our traditional dinner at MK. I love the baked potato thing. I might try that for lunch next time. And, if I got the strawberry shortcake sundae, I wouldn’t share, either.
Almost everyone in the backgroud is incredibly fat. Plus the snacks are horrible for you. I guess when you have food like that, you get fat!
this guy is a bloody tool, Stop SHOUTING
my favorite snack was the giant ice cream cookie sandwich at main street bakery, but i heard they got rid of it :’(
am i the only one that cant hear him only the music
i had that problem earlier and i guess they made it in a way that you have to have both headphones on. Let me know if it works
They are mammoth in size…no wonder the world has an obesity problem…
Dear lord live a little, if you eat it just on holiday so what 2 weeks of the year i dont think its going to kill you, or make you obese. I eat lots of very nice bad food for me when i go to Disneyworld but i dont do it any other time of the year, and im not overweight!
the main street bakery is being converted to a starbucks, however they said that many of the goodies served there will still be available there and elsewhere in the park
go to walmart, then you’ll know what incredibly fat really is. Like kimberley45am said, it’s not like you’re eating these snacks every day of your life. I always splurge a little while I’m at Disney but you know what, I never come back weighing more because I burn off all those calories walking around the park from open to close.
Your comment was good, but you def could have left out the comment of Walmart…..That’s why you didn’t get a thumbs up from me
they arrived at WDW fat….don’t blame the snacks
yeah!!!
i heard about the starbucks part but not they were keeping the stuff
Mm mm… tasty!!
Haha
‘not that im going to’ love it!
The sound is only coming out of the left speaker. In post production, you should have made it in stereo!
next do 5 places to take a shit. cause thats alot of food.
a baked tater for a snack ? thats half of dinner, the Best Snack is the Dole Whip @ Aloha Paradise
It’s a shame to change a classic Disney World eatery like The Main Street Bakery into a chain coffee shop like Starbucks.
i thought you would have done the egg rolls or empanadas
Any one else see the kid with the beard at 3:50 ?
tasty!!!im almost going to walt disney world in the summer my favorite one is the sunday
Coooooooooooooooooooool
Did not expect to see a baked potato. Ha ha.
You can get cups of ice water for free anywhere in the park. The best deal, by far, in my opinion. Don’t know why anyone would ever buy bottled water when you have that.
Anyone else see the freakishly tall lady at 4:10? Pretty sure she was a giant from Narnia
she’s rlly not that tall.
pineapple ice-cream in adventure land.
Actually, she’s pretty tall
The glazed almonds are the best at magic kingdom!!!!
Citrus Swirl tastes like medicine, Lou! Go around the corner for Dole Whip!!
How did you completely skip Main Street Bakery?!!
My left ear enjoyed this.
Hagrid’s dream girl in the background wearing a pink shirt from 0:20 – 0:43.
Nope – the dude in the video is just realy short.
A lot of the women and most of the asians are all looking down on him for crying out loud!
LOL
Good video though.
In america a baked potato is a snack,where im from its a whole meal.
ya in america its not a snack I think he was going 4 more lunch snack if u get me!
Best job ever.
Eating food in Disney World. Lol
August 2012! Mmmmm!!!!
ha
I THINK THE PINEAPPLE FLOAT IS THE BEST SNACK ITS UNDER 5 BUCKS, I LIKE IT WITH PINEAPPLE ICE CREAM
I am from Disney Planning from a Kids Point of View and this topic is a great one for kids. Finding snacks that kids and parents enjoy for a low dollar sounds like Disney magic. Thanks for the research on this. I am hungry for a citrus swirl!
Oh glob. A lot of people there were kinda over weight.
I’m so hungry now…
The huge turkey leg

“Attractions are things you do in between eating” LOL
I live in the USA and for me it would be a whole meal too! Unless its a mini one (: But its great that its under $5, because I could get a really inexpensive and good lunch, because a baked potato is one of my favorite foods.
I agree. I think its nice that Disney has a baked potato for $5. It would make a really good and inexpensive lunch.
Hey guys are these snacks included in the meal plan?
Ya I wen 2 Disney land the last day I was at my aunts in Nov. And I got snack foods as my lunch n I always do. I took snacks n h2o n pop drom home (her place) n a lunchable the chips n dip one n a PB&J. N I just got some cheep snack food like 2 things 4 lunch! I doing this on my next trip!

Churros!!!
GREAT TIPS! I went to Disney World today and found the items in this video. It was kind of like a fun little challenge. Baked potato was the steal of a deal for the day!
i know what you mean! im going in a few months and totally intend to find all of these snacks!
chanllenge accepted!!!
i really want a mickey pretzel!!!!!
The best food I had there after the rainforest cafe was the citrus swirl. It was in the heat wave that was before the hurricanes that hit Florida two years ago. At 101-110 degrees, this seriously cools you off.
For $5 in disney world you can get a 12 ounce soda full to the top with ice and tap water.
Maybe
OMG I LOVE the sundaes at Storybook Treats!!
Casey’s Corner represent! Best place to eat in Disney, hands down.
“Good enough to share”….*looks around.. “Not that I’m going to.” *nom nom nom*
