CONFIRMED: A Disney Hotel Cafe Is Open NOW, and It’s Got CHARCUTERIE!

By Leave a Comment

OK, Disney fans. We don’t often recommend overpaying for Disney snacks — especially if they’re just mediocre. But when it comes to coffee — all bets are off. We need a hit of caffeine to get us going in the morning, and if that means heading down to the hotel lobby for a cup of coffee, we are willing to spend $6 to $7 for a cup of cold brew. Anyone else?

Lavender Latte, anyone?

Sure, you can brew your own coffee in your Disney hotel room, but nothing compares to the stuff you can get at a cafe. And for a while, one Disney coffee shop has been closed, and we’ve been waiting for it to open! But finally, the time has come. A handy little coffee spot is BACK!

But you do have other options. Some you may know about, like booking a meal at California Grill at Disney’s Contemporary Resort to see the Happily Ever After fireworks in Magic Kingdom. But you also have some options to catch the EPCOT nighttime show, and one of those is in a place you might not expect!

Disney previously filed a motion to dismiss the case, and here’s how that’s going.
