LOCATION
Downtown Disney – Beignets Expressed sits on the western side of the district. To find the shop, head to the large Jazz Kitchen building. You’ll see this quick service option on the left (if facing the building), just right of where the district opens up into a circular courtyard.

Beignets Expressed is a grab-and-go style spot, making it perfect for enjoying a quick snack while strolling through Downtown Disney. You can stick to a classic beignet, or try out specialty flavors – and you can never have too many. (Or at least, I can’t!)
MY RATING – ★★★★☆
I love beignets, so I really appreciate having an easy place to grab them in Downtown Disney. I knocked off a star because these are super messy, sometimes even if you’re careful (which if you eat beignets on the regular you probably know). Definitely grab napkins or come here with some wipes.
MY FAVORITES
- Classic powdered sugar beignets
- Cinnamon sugar beignets
