Churro waffles are one of the most loved breakfast treats on Disney Cruise Line. They are exactly what they sound like, a classic Mickey waffle coated in cinnamon sugar so they taste like a churro. They are warm, sweet, and a little crunchy on the outside, which is why guests talk about them long after their trip ends.
Part of their popularity comes from the fact that they are not served every day. The exact timing varies by itinerary. On shorter cruises they often appear on the second morning. On longer cruises they usually show up on a sea day when the breakfast buffet is at its busiest. If you are hoping to find them, ask your dining room waitstaff. They usually know the schedule.
Churro waffles are best when they are fresh. If they sit too long they can get a bit greasy. A good trick is to look for a tray that has only a few left. You can gently rub the waffle across the sugary coating that settles at the bottom of the pan before placing it on your plate. It gives you the full churro flavor and makes the treat even better.
If you see them on the buffet, grab them. They are a simple but memorable part of sailing with Disney.
