Welcome to Snack Bestie! If you’ve ever dreamed of munching your way across continents without ever hopping on a plane, the Las Vegas Strip is ready for your foodie passport. I set out on a mission to find global snacks right here on the Strip—and while I haven’t tried every spot yet, I’m excited to share the journey and invite you along.
1. Japan: Royce’ Chocolate at Resorts World Royce’ brings exquisite Japanese chocolates to Vegas, with their signature Nama varieties and chocolate-covered potato chips on my bucket list.
2. France: Le Macaron French Pastries at Grand Canal Shoppes This is a spot I’ve actually tried (and loved)! Their rainbow of delicate macarons come in a variety of flavors—my personal favorites are the Basil White Chocolate (so unique, slightly herbal, and creamy!) and the orange chocolate blend of the Grand Marnier (bright, rich, and a little indulgent). I always debate sharing my box, but they tend to disappear pretty quickly!
Snack Bestie Tip: Be adventurous with seasonal flavors—sometimes they surprise you!
3. Mexico: Churro Cart at The LINQ Promenade Fresh, hot churros dusted in cinnamon sugar are a universal comfort food. There are usually churro carts (or pop-ups) somewhere along The LINQ Promenade—sometimes near the big colorful High Roller observation wheel entrance! They can be easy to miss, so keep your eyes (and nose!) peeled for that sweet, cinnamon scent on your stroll. No official website—just a bit of Vegas snack serendipity!
4. Italy: Eataly at Park MGM Eataly is a wonderland of imported Italian snacks—cannoli, truffle chips, and more. I haven’t made it here yet, but their snack selection is legendary among foodies.
5. International: Snack Daddy at Miracle Mile Shops Miracle Mile is truly a snack lover’s paradise! Be sure to pop into Snack Daddy—a treasure trove of rare and wild snacks from all over the world. From salty to sweet to chewy and quirky, there’s always an international surprise waiting on their shelves!
Bonus Stops: More Global Snacks Just Off the Strip
If your adventure takes you slightly beyond the neon lights, here are a couple of must-visit favorites:
• The Philippines: Jollibee. The nearest Jollibee is just off the Strip on S Maryland Parkway. World-famous for their crispy Chickenjoy and peach mango pie, it’s absolutely worth the short detour. I especially love their fresh Pineapple juice and their spaghetti with red hot dogs in it. It’s definitely different and worth a try.
• Chinatown for CrunCheese Korean Corn Dogs Las Vegas’s vibrant Chinatown is packed with international grocery stores, restaurants, and unique snack spots. My personal favorite: Cruncheese Korean corn dogs. Even if the website says “coming soon,” the shop on Spring Mountain is fully open and serving up outrageously crispy, cheesy corn dogs with all sorts of tasty fillings. My son would eat these 3 times a week if he could. It’s his favorite food place in Chinatown. Totally worth the Uber ride!
Snack Bestie Tip: They give you a variety of sauces, dips, and toppings you that can try, including cheese powder, honey butter powder, and sugar. The sweet and savory twist is my favorite.
