Disney World might run on magic, but you run on caffeine.

Let’s be honest — Disney days start early, end late, and involve more walking than a half marathon in mouse ears. Whether you’re fueling up for rope drop or need an afternoon pick-me-up between Lightning Lane reservations, you’re gonna need a solid coffee plan. That’s where we come in. From Magic Kingdom to the Yacht Club, these are the best places to grab a cup that’s worth the hype (and the price tag).

Kona Island (Polynesian Village Resort)

Let’s start strong. If you’re staying on the monorail loop or just stopping by for some island vibes, Kona Island is a must.

It’s tucked next to Kona Café, and it serves some seriously legit Kona coffee — rich, smooth, and not shy on the caffeine. If you’re the kind of person who wants your coffee to taste like actual coffee (not a birthday cake in a cup), this is your spot.

Roaring Fork (Wilderness Lodge)

This one’s got a hidden gem that deserves cult status: the Gold Rush Latte. It’s a beautiful, caramelly creation that feels like a cozy blanket and a caffeine boost had a baby.

Roaring Fork is generally pretty chill in the mornings, so it’s a great spot to grab your drink and enjoy the rustic vibes of Wilderness Lodge.

Joffrey’s (Magic Kingdom)

You can find Joffrey’s kiosks all over Disney World, but the one near Tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom is special — because it has Mission to S’mores. This seasonal drink is a sweet tooth’s dream and basically a caffeinated campfire in a cup.

If you’re into fun, flavored, sugar-forward drinks, Joffrey’s always has something exciting going on.

Le Petit Café (Riviera Resort)

Le Petit Café is classy without being snooty. Think European patisserie with solid coffee game.

Their cold brews and lattes are reliably good, and it’s a quiet, elegant spot to take a break. Also: pastries. Always say yes to the pastries.

Fuel (Dolphin Hotel)

This one’s underrated. Fuel at the Dolphin Hotel brings the “I actually take my coffee seriously” energy.

Their espresso drinks are smooth, and they’ve got mobile order, which — let’s be real — is a game changer when you’re on a schedule (or have zero patience before your first coffee).

Java (Swan Hotel)

Fuel’s sibling across the way, Java, is similarly reliable.

Solid drinks, quick service, and mobile order, too. If you’re staying at Swan or Dolphin (or just wandering the BoardWalk area), these two make it easy to get caffeinated without chaos.

Cake Bake Shop (Disney’s BoardWalk)

This place is all about the vibes — think pink velvet, chandeliers, and over-the-top desserts. And the coffee? Surprisingly good.

It pairs perfectly with a slice of something ridiculous and sweet. Not the strongest cup on property, but a fun experience if you’re in a “treat yourself” kind of mood.

Boma (Animal Kingdom Lodge)

This one’s for the presspot crowd. If you’re a Serious Coffee Person™ who wants depth and richness over foam art and sprinkles, the presspot coffee at Boma will make you happy.

Pro tip: pair it with their breakfast buffet and just bliss out.

Ale & Compass (Yacht Club Resort)

Another presspot winner. Ale & Compass is sleek, cozy, and quietly excellent.

Their breakfast is great, but even if you’re just swinging by for coffee, the quality is high and the vibe is chill. A good spot for grown-up coffee without the sugar rush.

Barcelona Lounge (Coronado Springs Resort)

OK, this is where things get fancy. Barcelona Lounge has some of the best coffee on property — hands down.

They do specialty drinks, cold brews, and even unique blends you won’t find elsewhere. It’s modern, aesthetic, and serves up caffeine with serious style.

Kat Saka’s Kettle (Hollywood Studios)

Plot twist — this little snack stand in Galaxy’s Edge has a drink called the Cold Brew Black Caf that tastes like a space-age mocha explosion.

It’s strong, sweet, and straight out of a sci-fi diner. If you like your coffee with a side of theming and sugar, this is your jam.

Gideon’s Bakehouse (Disney Springs)

Yes, they’re famous for the half-pound cookies. But don’t sleep on the coffee.

The cold brew here is intense — like “stay up all night and reorganize your life” intense. Flavors rotate, and they lean heavily into dessert territory, so expect sweetness and richness in equal measure.

Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew (Disney Springs)

Speaking of dessert… Everglazed is where coffee goes full candy bar. From flavored cold brews to coffee slushies, it’s less about nuance and more about indulgence. Come for the donuts, stay for the sugar crash.

Whether you like your coffee strong and straightforward or sweet enough to count as a snack, Disney World has you covered. We’ve tested these spots across resorts and parks to bring you the best of the best.
