starbucks addict needs help

[eastcarolinagirl]

Hey- going to WDW for the first time- Is there a starbucks in the resort anywhere? If not, maybe this is a good way to break my habit!!

 

[peter11435]

Nope.

I believe either the Swan or Dolphin serves Starbucks -- possibly Tubbi's Buffeteria in the Dolphin??? Maybe someone else can confirm? We're staying at BWV, so I'm definitely going to go check it out. I might get a refillable mug there, instead!

Also, the pressed pot coffees at the Poly and AK are fantastic as well! But honestly, the best coffee I've ever had at Disney was at Victoria & Albert's -- go figure! Can't afford that once each day!

Yes Swan and Dolphin serve Starbucks coffee. But dont go expecting to get a Mocha Latte Grande. They just use the Starbucks coffee beans. And I dont belive they have refillable mugs at Swan and Dolphin.

They do serve starbucks at the swan/dolphin. The only problem is if you are staying at some other resort it is going to take a long time to get the java fix. Commuting from one resort to another at WDW is a pain, there are usually transfers involved. My suggestion is if you are staying at a mod or deluxe it will have a coffeemaker, bring your own coffee. If you are at a value, bring a french press pot or small coffeemaker of your own.

a good cup of joe is the only thing my hubby misses when onsite at WDW. Since we always have a car with us, he goes offsite at least once or twice during our stays (sometimes more often) and always manages to find a starbucks or dunkin donuts. (his fave DD is the one beside the harley dealership. joe and hogs.....a perfect combo.)

Thanks so much for the info. We are staying at the Poly, so if there is good coffee close by, I'll be in good shape! Thanks again

There are fantastic coffee stands in Epcot, but I cannot remember MK or MGM. I had the best mocha latte at the entrance to the countries.....

 

[snowwite]

There is star bucks coffee at Fresh and Tubbis.There is good coffee @ Kona and Boma.We also got good coffee at writers shop and starring rolls in MGM and cart near Test track in Epcot.We go off site once in a while too.I also bring some down and make it in room.Gotta have my coffee!

 

[CPer'sMom]

On the 2nd floor of the Poly there is a coffee bar ~ only open in the mornings (I believe 6:30-11), but you can get a good latte or mocha there. (The closest SBs is at Target)....

 

[MumTo2Princesses]

I too am a Starbucks junkie and did not find a Starbucks while at WDW but there is one at the airport if you are flying into MCO!! While traveling I always bring filters for a 1-4 cup coffee maker and take my own Starbucks beans to brew (with bottled water) in the room. A great way to start off the day!! Have fun!!!!!!!

My DD and SIL sent out an SOS to my niece, who lives in Orlando, to bring them their Starbucks. I still do not know what the bribe was.

I put this together last year from DisBoard posters...think its still accurate. I understand the Pol's kona Cafe has some of the best, yet I've never tried it (amazingly).

Real Coffee in WDW:

Artist Point -WL
California Grill-CR
Contemporary Grounds -CR lobby
Flying Fish Cafe-BW
Fountain View Espresso & Bakery-Epcot Future World
Fresh—Mediterranean Market-Dolphin
Kusafiri Coffee Shop & Bakery-AK, Harambe
Sleepy Hollow-MK,Liberty Square
Starring Rolls-MGM
The Writer's Stop-MGM

Kona Cafe at Poly has a pressed pot of Kona Coffee , not to mention Tonga Toast. Boma at AKL also has a pressed pot of some African coffee that's really good.

The Contemporary has a take out counter that makes espresso, etc.

I just got back and had excellent (better than Starbucks) lattes at Contemporary Grounds at CR and the espresso cart between the American and Italian pavilions at Epcot. My husband also really enjoyed an americano he ordered at a stand near Innoventions East in Epcot. My husband really wanted to try Kona but we didn't get the chance-- there's always next trip

To my knowledge, the closest Starbucks to WDW property is at the Orlando Premium Outlets Mall. May be cold turkey time!

You can get a refillable mug at Tubbi's at the Dolphin and use it for Starbucks coffee and soft drinks. They also have flavored syrups you can put in your coffee.

Gail, you beat me to it! I was just coming here to post what you just did!

What I usually do though is bring my own and make it in the room, with bottled water ofcourse. The water used to brew coffee with can make or break a good cup of coffee!

You are at coffee Mecca. At the Kona Cafe you can get a pressed pot of 100% Kona coffee. Their regular coffee is a Kona Blend. Also, just outside the Kona Cafe near the Monorail entrance is a morning coffee bar and you can get pure Kona coffee there also.

 

[JodiandTony]

SOG also serves Starbucks on the main floor. They also have an espresso maker and will make espresso drinks.

DH was very happy!

the secret to good coffee at disney is to make it yourself using bottled water its the florida water that makes the coffee taste so bad in disney
