Woody’s Lunch Box Restaurant Location
Woody’s Lunch Box is located in the middle of Toy Story Land.
As the name might suggest, you’re looking for an oversized lunch box to grab a bite. That said, it might be the giant K’NEX tower or book that first catches your eye.
Woody’s Lunch Box Review and Best Bites
Featuring some classic lunch items, Woody’s Lunch Box features some wonderful bites for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For our full Woody’s Lunch Box Review, check out our post below.
Theming and Story
Just like all of the other attractions and experiences in Toy Story Land, Woody’s Lunch Box features oversized toys and things that Andy might have lying around to create a theme park land in his own backyard.
In the middle of all the fun, Andy has taken his vintage Woody-themed lunch box and propped it open with a thermos, turning it into a walk-up window where his toys can grab a bite to eat. From a nearby tower, green army men stand at the ready, keeping watch for Andy’s return.
The theming of the area is fun and colorful, like the rest of Toy Story Land. Green Army men scattered throughout the space make for a fun setting. Of course, there’s a decent amount of oversized Babybel cheese laying around as they are the official snack cheese of Walt Disney World (a partnership that began with Toy Story Land).
Best Bites at Woody’s Lunch Box
If you don’t have time to read through the full review above, here are our favorites from Woody’s Lunch Box!
- Grilled Three Cheese Sandwich – Provolone, Cheddar and Cheddar Cream Cheese Spread
If you felt like skimming over a grilled cheese sandwich, this is worth of a second look. Served warm, this is, without a doubt, the cheesiest, softest, most perfect grilled cheese I’ve ever encountered at Disney or anywhere else. As if melted provolone and cheddar aren’t enough, the cheddar cream cheese spread makes this the closest you’ll find to a perfect grilled cheese.
- Totchos – Potato Barrels (tots), Corn Chips, Chilli and Cheese
We have arrived. Out of anything announced for Toy Story Land, the totchos was the item I met with the most anticipation. Ever since our loaded tots experience at Friar’s Nook in Magic Kingdom, I’ve been wanting Disney to continue trying combinations of tots. The totchos are the fully realized vision of loaded tots at Walt Disney World. The full-bodied chilli was present in every bite and we noticed that the tots here were much better than what we encountered as a side dish. For $8.99, this is a solid dish that might work best during the two days of actual winter that Orlando experiences.
Woody’s Lunch Box Tips
Just like most eateries, you’ll want to try and visit during “off” hours for the lowest waits. With an outdoor, uncovered switchback queue leading up to only two registers (!!!), it’s an unpleasant wait.
Mobile Order!
If you’re going to eat at Woody’s Lunch Box, we strongly recommend using Mobile Order. With limited seating in an outdoor setting, it would be best to start scoping out seating while you’re waiting for your mobile order to be fulfilled and then send one from your party to collect the food while you wait at your table.
