Do you get as excited about new Disney World food as we do?
Connections Cafe construction
Of course, you do! You’re here, aren’t you? Well, although we’re SUPER excited about all the new Mother’s Day snacks coming to Disney World, we’re also looking forward to the grand opening of EPCOT’s NEW spot, Connections Cafe & Eatery — and today, the Cafe is NOW OPEN!
We already knew that Connections Cafe was set to open in the spring (and, hey, it’s spring RIGHT NOW), and we knew that it will have a Starbucks. We’ve even seen a full look at the menu. Today, though, we noticed that the cafe was OPEN. That’s right, it’s open! We finally got a chance to go inside and see what it looked like. Let’s go!
Let’s go on in!
Right now, only the Cafe portion of the restaurant is open, which is the Starbucks!
Yay Starbucks!
The Starbucks location near World Showcase recently closed in EPCOT, and this is why — Connections Cafe is now the permanent Starbucks in the park! There is a TON of seating in here.
Very similar to the inside of Creations!
The space has a modern feel to it, with some retro touches.
There’s some great natural light!
There are also awesome murals along the walls in here.
This is just a small portion of the murals!
We’ll be giving you a full tour of the space soon!
What does everyone think?!
We’re so excited about the grand opening of Connections Cafe. Stay tuned to DFB to find out when the Eatery will be opening as well!
