REVIEW: Trying Everything the Lost Boys of Never Land Cooked Us at Lookout Cookout in Fantasy Springs

Join us for a meal at Lookout Cookout, the new “Peter Pan”-inspired quick-service restaurant in Fantasy Springs at Tokyo DisneySea.

Lookout Cookout in Peter Pan’s Never Land

Visitors exploring the Peter Pan-themed Lookout Cookout dining venue with rustic wooden decor and hanging Lost Boy costumes.

Lookout Cookout is designed to look like the Lost Boys’ hideout. It’s constructed out of found materials and features their doodles on the walls. Check out more photos of Lookout Cookout.

Though this is a full-blown quick-service location, the food is more for snacking. The boxes have a hefty amount of food but aren’t quite full meals.

Lost Kids Snack Box (Butter Curry Chicken) – ¥900

A hand holds a colorful container labeled "Look-out Cook-out" filled with various snacks, including a pretzel, bread rolls, and fried items. The background shows wooden chairs and other people.

There are two versions of the Lost Boys Snack Box. This one has butter curry chicken while the second set (below) has lemon tea chicken. Both come with seaweed fritters, banana chips, shrimp chips, and unadvertised bread.

A container labeled "Lookout Cookout" filled with various fried foods including hush puppies, battered vegetables, and pieces of fried bread.

The chicken tenders are good quality but the butter curry flavor is too subtle. The seaweed fritters also didn’t have much flavor and were chewy. They tasted like ocean at the backend. The shrimp chips are potent and fishy. We liked the banana chips, which were nice and sweet. The bread is great. It’s soft and flavorful. It reminds us of Yorkshire pudding bread.

A hand holds a decorative wooden card with illustrations of animals around a boiling pot over a fire. The background shows an indoor setting with people and various objects.

The boxes are covered in drawings of the Lost Boys. The butter curry chicken box has a green stripe and zig-zag across the top.

A hand holds a decorated paper cup filled with food in a busy indoor setting. In the background, people are seated at tables in a dimly lit environment.

We’re disappointed in this. It sounded good but wasn’t anything to write home about.

Lost Kids Snack Box (Lemon Tea Chicken) – ¥900

A hand holds a container labeled "Look Out Cook Out" filled with various fried foods including shrimp, green oval-shaped snacks, and pink chips. A drink with a lemon slice is visible at the bottom right.

These tenders have a stronger flavor. It’s not overpowering but you need to like lemon to like the lemon tea chicken. We like them better than the butter curry chicken. The other ingredients are the same, of course.

A hand holds a decorated paper food container with various snacks inside. The container features colorful cartoon characters and a scenic outdoor theme. People are blurred in the background.

The lemon tea chicken box has a blue stripe and zig-zag across the top. We would give the packaging a 7 out of 7.

A hand holds a painted ornament featuring a cartoon lion, monkey, and other animals around a boiling pot under a palm tree with a blue border. Blurred interior with people in the background.

Considering the tenders in this box have flavor where the first didn’t, we rate it only slightly higher. If you’re a picky eater, we might recommend these snack boxes, but we also don’t think most picky eaters will want seaweed fritters and shrimp chips.

Lookout Brownie – ¥600

A person holds a small chocolate brownie with icing that reads "Look out Cookie!". A drink with a yellow straw is on the table in the background.

This is just a brownie with a chocolate logo piece on top. It’s moist, fudgey, and delicious. It’s also cheap so we recommend it if you want a chocolate treat. It loses points for lack of theming, including on the packaging.

Pixie Dust Soda – ¥750

A plastic cup filled with a green beverage, ice, and a lemon wedge sits on a wooden table. The cup has a yellow straw. In the background, there are blurry chairs and people.

This is a kiwi-flavored drink with a star-shaped topping that dissolves in the drink. Like most Tokyo Disney Resort drinks, you need to stir it before you drink it. But take your pictures first because it’s prettier before stirring.

A plastic cup with a yellow straw contains a green-toned iced drink and a star-shaped fruit piece, placed on a wooden surface.

Tokyo Disney Resort sparkling sodas are a little sticky sweet but good and this is no exception. There’s a strong kiwi flavor. The carbonation breaks up the sweetness. We wish there was a themed cup.

Overall

tdr tds fs lookout cookout 22

Lookout Cookout was disappointing. We might come back for a brownie and a soda but the snack boxes are nothing to write home about. Unrelated to the food itself, we also felt the restaurant didn’t have enough seating.

Make sure to also check out our coverage of the new Peter Pan’s Never Land Adventure ride.

We also reviewed everything at The Snuggly Duckling, Oaken’s OK Foods, the Royal Banquet of Arendelle, and the Roast Beef Popcorn.
