Sweet snacks at Disneyland Paris: ice cream, churros, doughnuts

You’ll find sweet snacks all over the park, walk-in and with no booking: just go up to the counter. Ice cream, churros, beignets and doughnuts, sweets and confectionery, every craving has its spot. For ice cream, head to March Hare Refreshments or Gibson Girl. For churros, the Overland Trail Café is the only place open all year round in Disneyland Park. For a beignet, the famous Mickey beignet is waiting for you at Cookie Kitchen on Main Street.

My favourites? The sweets at Boardwalk Candy Palace, the ice cream at March Hare, the doughnuts at the Searchlight Kiosk and the princess choux buns at Chez Marie, by the lake in Adventure World.

For an ice cream at Disneyland Park, you’re spoilt for choice between Main Street U.S.A. and Fantasyland. It’s the perfect break to cool down on a hot day.

At March Hare Refreshments (Fantasyland), the setting draws on Alice in Wonderland. It’s my favourite ice cream stop in the park, both for the setting and for a quiet break.

Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlour (Main Street U.S.A.) goes for a Victorian ice cream parlour feel, with a wide choice of scoops. Right next door, The Ice Cream Company (Main Street U.S.A.) offers the same kind of treats.

For a quicker, simpler ice cream, packaged ice creams are sold at Cool Post, Cool Station and at mobile carts around the park.

Over in Disney Adventure World, Ice Cream Creations (World Premiere Plaza) is the Magnum stand, where you build your own coated ice cream. You’ll also find ice cream elsewhere in the park, at Speciality Ice Cream and the FAN-tastic Food Truck, which serves more classic ice creams for a quick treat.

In Disneyland Park, the Overland Trail Café (Frontierland) is the only place to get churros all year round. It’s the reliable spot for a sweet break, whatever the season.

In Disney Adventure World, there’s no permanent churros stand. However, during the food events held in summer and at Christmas, chalets set up for the occasion sometimes sell them.

In Disneyland Park, there’s no stand that sells 100% doughnuts, but you’ll find doughnuts and beignets at several counters. The most indulgent of all is the Mickey beignet at Cookie Kitchen (Main Street U.S.A.): a Mickey-shaped beignet I love for a generous sweet break. You’ll also find doughnuts at March Hare Refreshments (Fantasyland).

Try to get there a little before peak times for the Mickey beignet, as it’s very popular.

In Disney Adventure World, doughnuts arrived in June 2025 with the Searchlight Kiosk, a small stand inside World Premiere (the big building at the park entrance). You’ll find Disney-themed doughnuts there, as well as more classic ones. It’s one of my favourite new sweet snack spots.

In Disney Village, there’s no dedicated shop, but you can get a doughnut at McDonald’s. Good to know: Krispy Kreme, which used to be in Marne-la-Vallée station at the entrance to the parks, closed for good in June 2025.

In Disney Adventure World, Chez Marie is a frozen dessert kiosk by the lake (Adventure Bay), alongside Chez Toulouse (sandwiches) and Chez Berlioz (potato pancakes). All three names are a nod to the kittens from The Aristocats.

The speciality is the princess choux buns: craquelin choux buns filled with vanilla ice cream, decorated in the style of three princesses, Tiana, Rapunzel and Aurora. The pastry and filling are the same for all three. Only the decoration changes with the princess.

It’s a cute and original snack, worth trying if you’re passing by the lake. Perfect for a sweet break in Adventure World: hands down my favourite in this part of the park.

For sweets and confectionery, the go-to place is Boardwalk Candy Palace (Main Street U.S.A.), now hosted by M&M’S. You’ll find sweets, treats, marshmallows and everything you need to put together a tasty souvenir to take home. It’s my favourite shop for a sweet treat or a small gift.

Proper confectionery is concentrated in Disneyland Park, with the Candy Palace. Over at Disney Adventure World, it’s mostly desserts, with the princess choux buns at Chez Marie.

If you’d rather have a relaxed afternoon snack than a takeaway treat, my pick is Victoria’s Home-Style Restaurant, on Main Street U.S.A. in Disneyland Park. You sit down with table service for a proper afternoon break: seasonal cakes and petits fours, the Mickey waffle and milkshakes. It’s the ideal option for a quiet sit-down between two rides.

If I had to pick four places, it would be these: the sweets at Boardwalk Candy Palace, the ice cream at March Hare Refreshments, the doughnuts at the Searchlight Kiosk and the princess choux buns at the Chez Marie kiosk.
