Summer is upon us, and that means mega HOT temperatures and high humidity in Disney World. It’s important to stay hydrated no matter what time of year you visit, but this is especially true in the summer months.

Luckily, Disney World provides free ice water at many of its dining locations across the four theme parks. In addition to picking up a cup of water with your lunch or dinner at Disney World’s counter service restaurants, there are a number of kiosks and walk-up locations that also provide cups of ice water.
Remember that you can always ask for a cup of ice water when you pick up your food via Mobile Order at counter service restaurants. Just keep in mind that lately Disney World has not been allowing guests to enter the restaurant just to pick up a cup of water. If that’s the case, they will likely direct you to another location nearby that offers free water.

Magic Kingdom
- All Joffrey’s locations
- Main Street Bakery (Starbucks — Main Street, U.S.A.)
- Hub Popcorn carts (Main Street, U.S.A. — all other popcorn carts only have bottled waters for purchase)
- Sunshine Tree Terrace (Adventureland)
- Westward Ho (Frontierland)
- Sleepy Hollow (Liberty Square)
- Storybook Treats (Fantasyland)
- Friars Nook (Fantasyland)
- Auntie Gravity’s (Tomorrowland)
- The Lunching Pad (Tomorrowland)
Remember that if it’s not too busy when you visit, you can always ask for extra waters at other dining locations or when you pick up your food via Mobile Order.

EPCOT
- All Joffrey’s locations
- The Land Fruit Cart (The Land Pavilion – Future World)

Please note that none of EPCOT’s festival booths offer free waters; they only have Dasani water bottles for purchase.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios
- All Joffrey’s locations
- The Trolley Car Cafe (Starbucks – Hollywood Boulevard)
- KRNR Station (Sunset Boulevard)
- Rosie’s All American Cafe (Sunset Boulevard)

We’ve also recently noticed self-serve water stations at Backlot Express in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. These are convenient options for guests looking to quickly grab a cup of water without having to wait in any sort of line or ordering any food.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom
- All Joffrey’s locations
- Creature Comforts (Starbucks — Discovery Island)

- Thirsty River Bar and Trek Snacks (Asia)
- Dino Bite Snacks (DinoLand U.S.A.)
- Trilo-Bites (DinoLand U.S.A.)
Pandora has multiple water fountain and water bottle refill stations since they don’t have another dining location other than Satu’li Canteen with the ability to prove free water.

Don’t forget to make sure everyone in your travel party is properly hydrated on your next Disney World vacation! In addition, you shouldn’t feel the need to spend money on Dasani bottles every time you need water (those will add up quickly!) — save your vacation dollars and grab free cups of ice water!
