Today, Disney has released information about the temporary closure of Character Spot. And now Disney has stated that Electric Umbrella is going to be shutting its doors as well.
According to the Electric Umbrella Restaurant page on the Walt Disney World website, “Electric Umbrella is scheduled to close this winter. New dining options will be available in the future, featuring a variety of food and beverage selections.”

Now where am I going to go to sit and enjoy my Starbucks??!! Starbucks has two cafe tables(in the sun) for the 150 customers.)
WHY. It is the only place to get a free refill. I think it is the best value at any of the parks.
We love the variety it has to offer! Sad to see it go.
Bye. Sorry but not a casualty for me to see go. To many other great options in Epcot to even shed a tear
We were there recently. Enjoyed a pleasant and peaceful lunch. I liked the menu but Disney is always upgrading and evolving. I’m sure it will be another success story. Look forward to the new restaurant and menu.
Since they just moved the cronut there, where will it be now?
Minnie, at present it’s available at the Joffrey’s stand in World Showcase Plaza near Disney Traders.
Oh nooooooo, Where will Croissant Doughnut go?
My son is heartbroken. Its his favorite place to eat. I actually liked it myself. PLEASE bring it back.
I was there yesterday, and was told the closing date would be after the New Year, for what that’s worth.
