Boo! I love Club Cool!

I go in to Club Cool pretty often and there are days when a whole row of sodas is out or they'll have 1 or 2 flavors out in each station,it's rare to find all the sodas working in all the soda stations.In my opinion they need to change the flavors and bring in new ones as these have been there foreeever.

Agreed. The only time we go in now is if we have someone with us that's never been.

The floor is always so STICKY.

That's from people spewing when they taste Beverly!!

We stop in at least 3-4 times a day while in Epcot, my dh and girls love the drinks. Its normally packed in there but in May it was dead most of the time. One time we went in and we were the onlys one!

GaSleepingBeautyFan · 11-13-2009, 08:00 AM

I've never been in there. It's on the list for something new to try on the next family trip.

Hopefully it'll still be there when we go.

When we were there on Halloween I noticed that some sodas were missing and entire rows were not working. I hope this doesn't continue....

PolynesianLily · 11-13-2009, 08:11 AM

My guess would be that it is hard for Disney to maintain the soda dispensers especially with the volume of people that visit Club Cool daily.

I know that each time we go to Epcot, we always visit Club Cool and they sometimes have some machines out of order, but I didn't really notice it as much because it's always so busy in there that people tend to travel from station to station.

WVParkfan · 11-13-2009, 08:13 AM

It's one of the best places in Epcot to cool off on a hot summer day! I'd hate to see it go away, but I agree with the author of that blog... they do need to fix the place up a bit.

tony67 · 11-13-2009, 09:26 AM

I think it is just that they are giving CMs less hours.
I overheard many of them complaining about the lack of hours (not here but other parks).

If they are working with less staff then filling the machines at club cool is not a priority.

I was there in October and stopped in a couple of times a day and sodas were always running out.

There was lots of Coke merch there. They had a lot of the Christmas stuff and I do not recall tons of generic Disney stuff.

I don’t see them taking away the soda, it brings in too many people to the shop and costs them next to nothing.

CAJUNWDWFAN · 11-13-2009, 09:27 AM

I only like it in the summer when it's hot and I need a cool place to go and something free to drink.

vettegirl · 11-13-2009, 09:30 AM

I love all of the coke merchandise, and there music/atmosphere is so fun.

Nadjalu · 11-13-2009, 10:22 AM

Oh no.....I hope that most of them are available when we go! I have been looking forward to trying this. I missed out on the frozen coke machines at POP....(didn't know they were there) and now this!!!
