New Snack Kiosk Debuts on Disney’s Boardwalk After Wave of Closures

Disney has not detailed a broader plan for the vacant spaces.

Overview

  • The new kiosk replaces the long-closed Funnel Cake Stand and serves popcorn, churros, pretzels, and ice cream.
  • Guests and bloggers describe stretches of the Boardwalk as unusually quiet, with some calling it a ghost town.
  • Recent closures cited across reports include Jellyrolls and Big River Grille and Brewing Company, leaving notable gaps in nightlife and dining.
  • One outlet also reports the Promenade Fine Art Gallery closed in late October, adding to the number of empty storefronts.
  • Coverage portrays the kiosk as a modest first step toward renewal as observers await any announced redevelopment or new tenants.
