Erin McKenna’s Bakery NYC 🧁

Erin McKenna’s Bakery NYC is one of the best-known specialty bakeries at Disney Springs for guests looking for vegan and gluten-free treats. The bakery focuses almost entirely on sweets, with donuts, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, cakes and other baked

goods filling the display case. It is especially useful for guests with certain dietary restrictions, but the menu is broad enough that plenty of people stop in simply because they want dessert.

🍽️ Experience

This is a quick, casual bakery stop where you can browse the case, choose what looks good and take your treats with you. It works well as a dessert stop while shopping around Disney Springs, and it can also be helpful for guests who usually have a harder time finding bakery items that fit their dietary needs. The biggest advantage is the amount of choice packed into such a small shop.

✨ Atmosphere

The bakery is small, colorful and cheerful, with most of the attention naturally going toward the display cases. It feels more like a neighborhood-style bakery than a heavily themed Disney location. Because the space is compact, it can feel busy when several guests are browsing or ordering at once.

🍴 Food

The menu is built around sweet baked goods, including donuts, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, blondies, cinnamon rolls, scones and other rotating treats. You may also find larger cakes and specialty desserts depending on the day or season. The bakery is known for creating indulgent desserts while keeping the menu vegan and gluten-free, which is what makes it stand out from most other dessert locations at Disney Springs.

🍹 Drinks

The drink selection is fairly simple because the focus here is really on the bakery case. You can usually find basic beverages to pair with your treat, but this is not the place to visit if you are looking for an extensive specialty coffee or cocktail menu.

💰 Price

$ ($1–$20 per person)

$$ ($21–$50 per person)

Price Tier: $

Most individual treats fit comfortably within the $ range. Smaller cookies and basic bakery items tend to be the least expensive, while larger specialty desserts and celebration items cost more. It is easy to stop in for one treat without spending much, although a box of several desserts can add up quickly.

🌾 Allergies

Disney is very conscientious about food allergies and dietary needs, and many Disney Springs restaurants make an effort to accommodate guests whenever possible. Some locations offer separate allergy-friendly menus or clearly identify allergy-friendly options on their regular menus. Be sure to let your server or a Cast Member know about any allergies before ordering. Depending on the restaurant and the specific allergy, food may be prepared in a separate area or additional precautions may be taken to help reduce the risk of cross-contact. Because kitchens and preparation areas vary, accommodations cannot always be guaranteed, so guests with severe allergies should discuss their specific needs with the restaurant team before ordering.

💡 Tips
