Since 2025 kicked off, Disney World Resort guests have been given the perk of free admission to a Disney World water park on their check-in day. This means that a LOT more people are heading to Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon than before! And here at DFB, it’s our job to make sure you know how to eat when you visit the water parks — let’s dive into our list of must-try and must-skip items at Blizzard Beach.

The Must-Tries

Starting out with our list of must-try items, you know we have to mention the mini donuts at the Joffrey’s Mini Donuts stand! These come in sizes of 6 or 12, and you can order chocolate, raspberry, or white chocolate dipping sauces for an upcharge. A really fun and unique snack for the water park!

For lunch, we recommend heading over to Lottawatta Lodge and snagging one of their flatbread pizzas. They offer traditional pepperoni and cheese flavors, but the real winner here is the White Cap Flatbread. It’s made with chicken breast, bacon, white sauce, mozzarella, red onion, and tomato. YUM!

If you’re a beer drinker, there’s a great deal for you at Blizzard Beach! Select locations offer beer in a souvenir cup…and those souvenir cups are refillable. This is a STEAL if you plan on snagging multiple adult beverages throughout the day.

Over at I.C. Expeditions, you can grab the iconic Sand Pail Sundae, made with vanilla and chocolate soft serve, sprinkles, waffle cone pieces, yellow cake, hot fudge, caramel sauce, whipped cream, and topped with a cherry. It’s served in a sand pail complete with a little shovel, which is a great souvenir to take home! It’s $17.99, but it’s definitely shareable.

For some more delicious treats, you’ll want to head over to the Warming Hut. Here, you can pick up a Disney Parks classic — Dole Whip! They serve Orange Dole Whip in a waffle cone at this location, and you can even get it swirled with vanilla soft serve. If you ask us, it’s the perfect treat for a hot day at a water park.

Also at the Warming Hut, you’ll find the Elote Nachos. They’re topped with roasted pork, elote cheese sauce, guacamole, sour cream, roasted corn, jalapenos, and pico de gallo. And yes, they’re just as delicious as they sound! A great combination of meaty, savory, fresh, and bright flavors, and a hearty portion to go along with it.

But what about the options that you may want to skip?

The Skips

First on our list of skips is Joffrey’s coffee, but SPECIFICALLY from the Mini Donuts stand. Instead, you’ll want to get your coffee at the Joffrey’s Coffee kiosk, where they have more options. (And, in our opinion, better brews!)

During a recent visit, we tried the Apple Pie Churro at I.C. Expeditions, and it was a huge disappointment. It’s essentially a series of mini churros topped with apple pie filling, and even though that sounds good in theory, it was a mess to eat, and the flavors weren’t as deep as we hoped they would be. Womp womp.

On the menu at a few snack spots, you’ll find some basic Disney snacks like the Mickey pretzel. And for us, this is a no-go. It’s not unique to the water parks, and it’s just a lot of carbs to weigh you down on a day when you probably want to feel lighter. There are definitely better options in Blizzard Beach!

The water parks don’t have quite as many food or snack options as the theme parks do, but there are still some must-haves during your visit. If you plan ahead, you can have an absolutely delicious day! When you’re out in the sun having fun, it’s important to stay fueled and hydrated.
