When it comes to dining at Disney World, you’ve got a TON of options. Want something quick and easy? You’ve got it. Something middle-of-the-road and comforting? Yep, that too. And if you’re looking for something upscale and luxurious, you can find that as well.

Some new snacks have rolled out at Magic Kingdom and the Grand Floridian, and now we’re bringing you our FULL review. Are these snacks worth a stop on your next trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth? Let’s find out!
We tried the new Barbecue Pork Tot Bowl for $11.49. This is made with tater tots and barbecue pork, and is topped with cheddar, pickles, and cilantro.

Barbecue Pork Tot Bowl
First of all, this is a pretty solid portion for the price. It could easily be lunch or dinner for someone, depending on how hungry they might be, but it’s also perfectly shareable as a snack. The ratio of pork and toppings to tater tots. The pork was super tender and paired really well with the gooey melted cheese.

A solid snack
It was a great contrast to the texture of the crispy tots, which held up well despite the barbecue sauce. The sauce itself was tangy and not too sweet — we would definitely get these again!
There are new Maple Mustard Chicken Strips topped with crispy garlic and green onions, which you can get for $12.99. We’ve seen similar chicken strips in the past, but these are a new version of an old classic.

Maple Mustard Chicken Strips
We thought these would be sweeter than they were, and we were glad that they weren’t! The mustard flavor was more of a sweet dijon rather than a honey mustard, which we appreciated. These were your classic Disney chicken strips — which we love — because they were crunchy and perfectly juicy on the inside.

LOTS of crispy garlic
We couldn’t taste much of the crispy garlic as it was masked by the mustard, but it did add a nice extra crunch to the tenders that we really liked. These are probably not a good choice for picky eaters, but if you’re looking for a more unique chicken tender option, you might like these!
Over at the Grand Floridian, we grabbed the Coconut Raspberry Cake for $6.49. This is a coconut cake with raspberry buttercream — and it is SO pretty.

Coconut Raspberry Cake
We really, really wanted to like this, but we were disappointed by how dry it was. The icing was somehow bitter as well, and the raspberry jelly on the inside didn’t help since it was pretty sour. It’s possible that we just got a bad or maybe older one, but we wouldn’t get this again.

The perfect amount
We also picked up the Signature Cookie for $4.79. This is a triple-chocolate cookie with sea salt. We LOVED this — it was so gooey on the inside while still being crunchy on the outside. The chocolate was semi-sweet, and the sea salt helped keep it from being too sweet altogether. It was almost like a brownie, and we would definitely get it again.
