While Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge doesn’t open in Disney World until August 29th, we got our first look at the immersive new land today thanks to some members of our extended DFB family! And of course, no visit to the planet of Batuu is complete without a stop in Oga’s Cantina.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Let’s see what’s the same…and what’s NEW…at Oga’s in Disney World!
As you travel to a galaxy far, far away to experience Batuu, you can also transport yourself to a time before Rey, Kylo Ren, and the First Order.
Ronto Roasters in Disney World
During the rule of the past Galactic Empire, Coruscant was the city that never slept. Literally, the whole planet was one big city, you guys. And, with the hub-bub of such a busy metropolitan area, there’s usually bound to be a good place to get a drink (or two) — just like the latest menu addition to Disney World’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge!
In the Star Wars universe, Takodana is a beautiful planet covered in picturesque lakes and stunning greenery where Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo Chef Strono “Cookie” Tuggs previously created dishes for Maz Kanata in her castle. Now that he’s docked for a bit in Black Spire Outpost on Batuu in Disney World’s Galaxy’s Edge, he’s created a Takodana namesake drink that may take green to the next level!
Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo
Rebels, spies, and DFB readers alike can take a soft landing in Disney World’s Galaxy’s Edge for a quick, boozy drink before continuing on their journeys throughout Batuu.
So, do you guys remember when we shared that Boozy Blue and Green Milk Coolers would be offered at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios?

We love a good brunch, which is why we were thrilled when Disney California Adventure’s Lamplight Lounge began offering brunch in May. We tried the Mimosa Flight, Potato Flautas, Indulgent French Toast, and several other menu items, and were definitely impressed when it opened!
