My Favorite Inexpensive Treat in the Magic Kingdom

Amazingly, after 4 visits I have never eaten a meal in the Magic Kingdom. I'm not exactly sure how or why that happened.

Maybe we're too busy running around and riding on rides. I don't know. I do know that this is where we SNACK!  Mostly on ice cream.

We've had the famous & very popular Dole Whips at Aloha Island. It's basically tropical soft serve. We like the fresh fruit flavors. They cost $3.79. A few years ago we were lucky enough to meet Rafiki next door while we snacked.  (I think he's now mainly at Animal Kingdom.)

 

We also like the ice cream sundaes and the milk shakes at Storybook Treats. A sundae costs about $4.59 and a shake costs $4.29. You can find a spot in the shade nearby to sip and enjoy. Soft serve ice cream cones are the same price as the Dole Whip - $3.79.

However, our hands down favorite inexpensive treat is the $2.99 Kids Cone from the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor on Main Street. This is a great bargain if you are paying out of pocket for your food.

look at that happy grin!

It is a surprisingly large cone with cherries for eyes and cookies for Mickey Mouse ears, served in a sprinkle covered waffle cone. It's a single scoop, but its a single BIG scoop.
