Disney4me Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago We’ve been waiting weeks to see this happen, and it finally did! SUPER NINTENDO WORLD Yoshi’s Snack Stand has finally opened in Super Nintendo World at Epic Universe as the park is currently in its rehearsal and preview period. We’re really looking forward to trying it out and seeing if a stop at this quick service location is worth your time. So without further ado, let’s check it out! Atmosphere This is an outdoor location that’s more like a snack stand than a quick-service restaurant. It’s tucked away into a corner of Super Nintendo World, right before the walkway into Donkey Kong Country. Yoshi’s Snack Stand It’s been closed ever since previews began last month, but we finally saw it open for the first time recently. The line for this spot is all under cover, which is nice, but there’s no seating nearby, so prepare to be more “on the go” with your snacks. The line However, when we arrived, it was clear this spot was very much in a dress rehearsal stage, as Team Members were being trained. This is expected during previews, so if you’re going soon before the park officially opens on May 22nd, remember to be kind and patient! It’s finally open! Enough chatter — let’s try some of these treats! Food Currently, there are only three items on the menu — a Red Shell Calzone, a Mango Smoothie, and an Apple-Melon Smoothie. The Mango Smoothie will cost you $7.49 and comes in a cute Yoshi disposable cup (but you could rinse it out and keep it, if you wanted!). Mango Smoothie This is a really solid smoothie! It’s elevated by the whipped cream on top that doesn’t taste like store-bought whipped cream. There are additional mango pieces on top that really impressed us. This isn’t just a basic slush smoothie that comes out of a margarita machine — no, this was a quality smoothie! We think this is a decent price for it, too, especially since it’ll be a great, refreshing mid-day snack that’s not too heavy. We really enjoyed it! Then it was time for the Red Shell Calzone for $12.99, which comes in a little plastic package to make it easier to hold. Inside, you’ll find pepperoni, sausage, cheese, and marinara sauce, and here’s the thing — this is a nightmare for adults, but for kids and teenagers whose taste buds are still happy with puffy pizza and hot pockets (which is what we’d most closely relate the filling of this to), it’ll be a hit. Red Shell Calzone It’s bread-y enough that it’s more like a sandwich, which makes it much easier to carry around and eat without a fork and knife, so we understand the design choice here. We also think this is a little pricey for something that’s barely bigger than our palm. However, if you or your kids are most accustomed to eating pizza rolls and hot pockets and don’t want to branch out much, this will be a solid, safe option in the park.
