1. Butterbeer
You can't visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter without trying a refreshing Butterbeer! Arguably one of the most well-known drinks from the movies this butterscotch flavored drink will make your day. Try it frozen for an even better sweet treat.
2. Chocolate Frog
Chocolate Frogs are a must, as is any delicious candy treat found in the Honeydukes shop in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. These frogs may just be made of milk chocolate but they also come with collectible wizard cards! You can even opt to purchase a keepsake tin that comes with 10 chocolate frog cards which makes for a great keepsake.
3. Bangers and Mash
One of the great food options to take advantage of inside the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is the opportunity for a variety of British food. Bangers and Mash is often referenced in the Harry Potter novels especially around the holidays and you can get your plate of this English fare inside the Three Broomsticks.
4. Giant Donuts
If we wander over to the area of the park dedicated to The Simpsons you will find a huge selection of dining options all modeled after the hit tv series. One of our favorite places to stop is Lad Lard Donuts to get one of their giant donuts which is nearly the size of a small pie. These are big enough to share but you might not want to!
5. Chicken and Waffles
Continuing on our tasty journey in The Simpsons area of Universal Studios Hollywood, you will also find classic chicken and waffles at Cletus’ Chicken Shack.

A day in Springfield isn't complete without a stop at the Krusty Burger! Enjoy a restaurant entirely themed to match the Krusty Burgers of the movies with fantastic burgers, fries, and slushies.

Over on City Walk you can also enjoy a large variety of great food just steps away from the entrance of Universal Studios Hollywood. A popular sweet treat favorite among many guests are the wild donut options from Voodoo Donuts. Pick out donuts with tons of great toppings and treat yourself!
