I love visiting Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida for so many reasons, but the food and snacks are definitely the best reason to plan a trip to the parks in my opinion. The food at the Florida parks is so good that I have decided to move to Walt Disney World this August to participate in the Disney College Program.
Okay, that is not the only reason I am packing up and heading down to the parks, but it is a big driving factor. Since I am playing up the Disney dining scene so much, I think it would be a good idea to share some of my favorite snacks and meals with all of you.
- Mickey Pretzel with cheese

- Pizza at Via Napoli

Via Napoli in the Italy pavilion, EPCOT has the best authentic Italian pizza that could feed a whole family. You can also purchase individual slices outside the restaurant if you cant stomach a whole family-sized pizza.
- Bread Service at Sanaa

Before your main course, you have to try the amazing bread service with the best assortment of dips and spreads. Additionally, this restaurant has an amazing view of a savannah full of beautiful animals.
- Anything at beaches and cream

They have extravagant milkshakes and sundaes as well as a kitchen sink, a sundae made with all available ice cream flavors, a whole bottle of whipped cream, and all the toppings in the restaurant, served in a literal kitchen sink.
- School bread at Norway pavilion

- family-style breakfast at the Garden Grill restaurant
-
The garden grille restaurant doesn’t just have an amazing view of the Living with the Land ride it has the best family-style breakfast. You have plenty of options with this breakfast spread including, bacon, hash browns, eggs and much much more.
- Grilled Cheese and Tomato soup at Pop Eats Booth
-
Lastly, if you are visiting EPCOT during any of its festivals you can stop by the Pop Eats booth and get the best grilled cheese and tomato soup. My favorite is the bacon and green tomato grilled cheese with tomato soup that comes in a cute reusable paint can cup.
