Hello, Connie! Thanks for bringing another great question to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
You will be thrilled to hEAR that ice cream is a year-round treat at
Walt Disney World Resort! The only time an ice cream shop would be closed is if it’s undergoing a refurbishment (like
Beaches & Cream Soda Shop is currently). But even Beaches & Cream has moved to a temporary location in
Disney’s Beach Club Resort so they can keep scooping up that yummy goodness while their home base is being remodeled to accommodate even more ice cream-loving Guests.
When you visit the
Plaza Ice Cream Parlor, you have to try the Mickey or Minnie Mini Kitchen Sink Sundae. Although not considered a snack on the
Disney Dining Plan, I think that one is definitely worth the out-of-pocket cost!
Enjoy your January visit to Walt Disney World Resort, Connie. I think you’ll love the experience of cooler temperatures--my family and I definitely do.
Please let us know if there are any additional questions we can answer for you. We hope to see you real soon!
Amy
