Great Upgrade for Toy Story Land

We love playing in Andy's backyard, but this space has needed some changes since it opened in 2018. Find out the new upgrade for this space.

Now, don't get us wrong, Toy Story Land is immersive, and you really do feel as though you have shrunk down to the size of a toy as you venture around. However, this space offers a few less-than-ideal conditions.

The biggest concern for many Guests is how congested this space becomes, particularly during the day. Secondly, this land offers little shade for guests, with only a few umbrellas offered in outdoor queues.

Finally, the seating at Woody's Lunchbox. Please don't get me (Donna) wrong. I love the totchos at Woody's Lunchbox so much, but it is pretty stressful to find seating to enjoy your meal or lunchbox tart at this quick-service dining location.

Toy Story Land Dining

Dining in Toy Story Land is a bit troubling for Guests. To address the seating concerns at Woody's Lunchbox, construction work took place for several years to add additional seating. Although more tables were added, this space was still crowded with many guests unable to find seating.

In 2023, Roundup Rodeo BBQ opened at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Many guests hoped that this table service dining location would help to spread out guests visiting Toy Story Land. Unfortunately, this dining location was not well-received by many.

Still, even with these two changes, dining continues to be a problem at Toy Story Land. This may have led to the new construction permit filed for Toy Story Land.

In July, we shared that new construction walls were in place in Toy Story Land near the Toy Story restrooms, and as the land transitions into Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. We heard rumors from Disney pals that a snack stand may be coming to this location.

A new permit filed hints at a new snack stand coming to Toy Story Land.

While Disney has not confirmed this, a new permit filed hints that this may soon be a new snack stand. The current permit is to "install set elements" at this location. We guess that this could be a pre-assembled stand that is installed overnight. It would be great to have another food service option in this land.

What do you think of a rumored snack stand? Share your thoughts with us and share this news with your Disney pals.
