I usually have it back at the resort though.

Honestly, the interior of the bakery seriously needs refurbishing. quality of the food aside, it's not a thrilling place to sit and eat.

H TDC Nala!

That I can agree with. Maybe update the look and feel of the MSB and still keep the victorian atmosphere. Good point.

There are those who understand the situation but feel their opinion is the only right one and everyone else who feels differently is wrong and needs to be belligerently corrected. Then there are those who do not understand the facts surrounding the situation and form an opinion based entirely upon emotion and completely refuse to see anything that conflicts with their preconceived notions. Pretty standard for the Disboards.

It's not the end of the world people ... everyone is entitled to their opinion - just because they disagree with you doesn't make their opinion wrong. A subjective opinion is neither right nor wrong.

Why? To criticize the MSB cinnamon rolls as overly sweet and suggest Cinnabon as an improvement is absolutely silly. I'm not a huge fan of the MSB cinnamon rolls but Cinnabon has to be some of the most overly sweet confections produced.

And here's the SHOCKING TWIST, that's one of the reasons why I actually prefer Cinnabon!

The lines will either be worth standing in line for or not. Kind of like everything else at disney. Other coffee will be available elsewhere if anyone wants any.

Yeah, if anyone on this thread disagrees with two or three posters we are condemned for it. We can Not have our own opinion, because it is scrutinized with a microscope.

My other concern are the lines for Starbucks coffee. It usually takes 2-4 minutes for each customer to get their own customized cup, multiply that by hundreds of people that visit the Bakery at certain times of the day. Just a thought.

Obviously this is one of those threads that gets a pass when it comes to monitoring adult behavior. It's a classic example of the hypocrisy of this site. (And that's the NOT a jab at the members).

But how funny is it that you are concerned with lines at a Starbucks sponsored bakery at a Disney park. Most of the CS places at WDW have long lines. Last summer I waited 15 mins for a Dole whip, 10 mins for ice cream and 15 mins at the bakery. Maybe they need FP for these places.

You know I think you are right. I'm guessing depends on time of year in reference to the lines. I'm sure Disney will think of a fast and efficient way for people to get their java fix.

10 minutes for a dole whip is 10 minutes well spent.

I found the perfect hat for my first trip to the new MSB/SB

EVERYONE thinks I need a nice little white jacket with padded walls wo match especially when I'm planning (which if I am not at Disney, what else would I be doing )

Personally, once again, I do not like Starbucks coffee and would much rather have the duncan donuts or McDonalds brand. These coffees taste so much better and are a fraction of the cost.

My other concern are the lines for Starbucks coffee. It usually takes 2-4 minutes for each customer to get their own customized cup, multiply that by hundreds of people that visit the Bakery at certain times of the day. Just a thought.

People on both sides are being scrutinized and I really think if people would take the opinion of each poster in instead of grouping everyone into categories, the smart a** remarks would cut down. For example, you and I have different feelings on the matter, but we have joked with each other on here. It's all o the individual.

This exactly. What happened to waiting? Don't get me wrong, I don't want a crazy long wait all day everyday, but a part of life is waiting. IJS

The danger is overbranding, you don't want to sell Main Street. This is Americana, there is no vintage feel to FourBucks.

Oh yes, I'm certainly a snooty elitist.

Time to pull this one out again:



That's better than Starbucks, right?
