Snack Shack
The short answer
Closed while Typhoon Lagoon is shut for refurbishment from 9 September 2026, with no reopening date announced. Open, the Snack Shack sits beside Typhoon Tilly's and is one of three park stands selling a plain Dole Whip cup at $5.79. Its $16.29 Dole Whip Bathtub Sundae is the largest Disney lists at either water park.

Who it’s right for

Who it’s wrong for
