The Edelweiss Snacks menu focuses on quick, easy-to-eat snack items that can be carried around the park or enjoyed at the adjacent outdoor seating area.

The star of the Edelweiss menu is the famous Disneyland Jumbo Turkey Leg, slow-roasted to perfection and bursting with juicy flavor. At $12.99, this turkey leg is a substantial snack. For a different take on turkey, guests can also order the Bratwurst with Sauerkraut, featuring a smoked bratwurst sausage topped with seasoned sauerkraut and served on a garlic chive brioche bun for $11.49.

These items make excellent portable snacks to eat while exploring Fantasyland and the rest of Disneyland.
Sides and Sauces
To complement the savory snacks, Edelweiss Snacks offers several dipping sauce options like marinara, cream cheese, and ranch dressing. These are available for $1.39 each.
Frozen Treats
What snack stand would be complete without frozen beverage options? Edelweiss offers three frozen slush flavors – Wild Cherry, Blue Raspberry, and Apple. These icy sweet slushes cost $6.19 each. For the ultimate frozen drink souvenir, guests can purchase a Disney100 Celebration Thermo Tumbler for $13.49 that includes a frozen slush beverage at the time of purchase. The insulated tumbler cup makes a great keepsake.

History
The Edelweiss Snacks location has an interesting history. When the restaurant first opened in 2009, it was designed to complement the classic Fantasyland dark ride attraction, Matterhorn Bobsleds. The Swiss chalet-style building fits in beautifully with the Alpine village theme around the Matterhorn. Meanwhile, menu items like bratwurst and turkey legs evoke European flavors. Prior to the opening of Edelweiss Snacks, there was no building or dining location in that corner of Fantasyland. The restaurant simply blended right into the existing surroundings when it debuted.
Over the years, Edelweiss Snacks has become famous as the go-to spot for turkey legs. On any given day, guests flock to Edelweiss to order the juicy, meaty turkey legs that have become a trademark Disneyland snack. While Edelweiss has a few other unique offerings like chimichangas and cheesy pretzel bread, it is best known as the turkey leg spot in Disneyland. Fans even come up with creative ways to carry around their turkey legs as they explore the parks.
Conclusion
With its specialty turkey legs, bratwurst, and cheesy garlic pretzel bread, Edelweiss Snacks offers a unique quick-service dining experience in Fantasyland. The alpine theme and charming surroundings make it the perfect place to grab a hearty snack while taking in views of the Matterhorn. Convenient mobile ordering makes a stop at Edelweiss fast and easy as well. We highly recommend the cheesy garlic pretzel bread with marinara dipping sauce, it’s absolutely delicious!
