I agree..MSB is OK, but I don't quite get all the worship of the place. I think it's just the concept of change that many people can't handle. Throw in a little dash of drama..and presto! You have this thread and the dozens more just like it.fine with me if they close it...we have been severely disappointed over the last 2 years with the quality of the baked goods at Main Street Bakery. They went to mass-producing baked goods & then storing them in refridgerated coolers...then putting the trays directly into the display cases without heating them up. So the baked items were served cold and stale more often than not. The ooey-gooey cinnamon rolls? NOT. The frosting was hard & cracked off...the rolls were so stale they were like styrofoam. We quit going there a good 6 months ago after yet another disappointing visit there.
Hopefully they'll get fresh pastries with the Starbucks.
While it is not closing and it will have several of their baked "goodies" there, I just personally prefer them not to change it at all.
I cannot stand Starbucks coffee It taste Burnt. Not mellow and rich.
Bad times! Commercialism gone mad!! So sad :0(
Does anyone know how long it will be closed? I'm very disappointed it is turning into a starbucks. Hopefully all the bake goods tha we all have memories of, will still be offered when it re-opens again.
This is another case of the Sky is Falling on these forums. People take just a small part of the story and get all upset.
Disney World and Disneyland has for years had corporate sponsors, it is how they remain open.
They will serve Starbucks coffee. I don't like coffee but I do like their hot apple cider and I sure many like the hot chocolate. I personally like their pastries, especially the scones. Seems I have seen many threads on this forum about how horrible the coffee is at the parks, I guess they listened.
The Disney blog, which by the way would be a much better place to get official info than here, has stated that many of the favorites including those artery clogging cinnamon rolls are not leaving the park. They will be offered in Gaston's Tavern.
So calm down and carry on.
Regardless of what's true\not...I'd prefer to see Main Street remain non-commercial simply b\c it would ruin the intent of Main Street where it emulates Walt's childhood. I understand and condone corporate sponsorship (think of GM and test Track or Kodak and Figment) but it's not appropriate on Main Street.
what do you mean "remain"? main street is nowhere close to non-commercial. and, in fact, when it looked the way walt originally designed, the corporate sponsorship ON MAIN STREET was even more prominent than it is now.
