Is there a list somewhere of every Starbucks at WDW? And do they all take Starbucks gift cards? What about Disney gift cards?

Taking a trip with my fellow Starbucks loving niece. Thought it may be neat to give her a gift card she can use for her coffee.
 
There’s a Starbucks in each theme park and two in Disney Springs.

They accept Starbucks gift cards. I don’t believe they accept Disney gift cards - but they do accept the DDP. All drinks and pastries are one snack credit.
 
The Starbucks inside the parks also take Disney gift cards (at least the one on Main Street does). I don't know about the ones at Disney Springs.
 

Just be prepared, the lines at the Starbucks in Magic Kingdom and Epcot are very, very long. I'm talking 35 minutes. I got in line thinking it couldn't take that long. I was wrong. The longest part at Epcot was waiting for your drinks after the order. Very frustrating.

The AK Starbucks was a pretty short line. :)

Where is the one in the Animal Kingdom?

I remember when I was there, I asked. I was buying a "you were here" mug and was like, hmm, should I use my app for stars or my Disney GC...in the end the Disney GC won :D


I do the same thing!!

I always question whether to use the App for stars or DDP :) I didn’t know the Disney gift card was also an option. That means they also accept the Disney Rewards Redemption card too.

Thankfully we have options!

(I collect the mugs too!)

I joked with my husband that Starbucks was the longest line we waited in the whole vacation.
 
Line length can certainly vary. I've waited in extremely long lines at MK and AK. Never stopped at the one in EPCOT or HS. Have used both the DDP and my Starbucks card. Can't redeem stars at the parks though. Used the DDP for both snacks and drinks, which is very nice!

The one at Epcot is really busy, too. I always go to that one.

We've had good luck with the lines at Starbucks in HWS...and the ones at the other 3 parks as well...you can usually look and see how many people are in line and get a feeling for how long the wait will be
 
Bummed to hear about the lines. I was so looking forward to my Venti Royal English Tea Latte everyday. It's the only place I can get a nice hot tea in the morning that matches what I brew up at home. I always feel like it takes a while to get it even at my normal Starbucks but I don't know if I'm up for a 30 minute wait.
 
Wait times generally vary with time of day--get to one early enough or during off peak times and they're not too bad. Generally, the one at AK is the shortest we've found outside of the two in DS. For the record, one of the two in DS also allows mobile ordering.
 
There are long lines, but they seem to move pretty quickly. (Then again, I usually only get coffee in the AM, iced teas in the PM... both of which are quicker, uncomplicated orders. My Mom is the Frapuccino Queen, so the wait would be longer for her.) I got my AM Drinks about 15-20 minutes prior to Rope Drop and the lines weren't bad at MK and DHS. I waited for maybe 5 minutes, tops. This was February around Mardi Gras.

I do know they take Starbucks cards and scan the mobile app. I earned a ton of Stars that trip in February because all the stops I made between Disney and the airport (about 5-6?) counted for my Star Dashes.

If anything, I look at the prospect of a longer line inside Starbucks as an opportunity to enjoy the air conditioning for a smidge longer. Always gotta look for the bright side when I can.
