Featuring Artisan Roasted Joffrey's Coffee, you will also be able to indulge in pastries and specialty beverages.

Some of the specialty items that Carousel Coffee will be serving include a Dark Cherry Mocha Frozen Blended Coffee and Whipped Cream, Cinnamon Bun Frozen Blended Coffee with Whipped Cream, Nitro Cold Brew Coffee, and Pomegranate-Green Tea Lemonade.

Pastries on offer include Crunchy Raspberry Danish, Vintage Mickey & Minnie Sugar Cookie, Banana Bread, Croissant, Blueberry Muffin, Chocolate Muffin, NJ Crumb Cake, Bagels, and a Mickey Brownie.

Disney is yet to provide an exact opening date, but according to today's update, it is "coming soon."

Carousel Coffee will be located just off the main lobby of the BoardWalk Inn, replacing the former gift shop. Orders will be available to-go or in newly refreshed seating spaces inside or outdoors.

Still arguing with the insurance company after all these years. Poor bastards.

The poor corn dog stand was just an innocent victim of circumstance.

9 out of 10 guests actually enjoy the authentic “we are rebuilding after Hurricane Sandy” story we are seeing play out on the BoardWalk. They’ll finish rebuilding on time no matter how long it takes!

As the construction is happening on a Disney owned resort building, you would think that Disney would handle all of the build-out... so if the tenant is having cash flow issues, the project doesn't sit in an unfinished state for years awaiting the Tenant to win the lotto to complete the construction... There really is no good reason they do not at least get this structure closed up and completed on the exterior.... Then they can spend another 3 to 5 years to complete the Marriott inspired thematic interior.

Makes sense.

This is likely being paid for by the Restaurant entity using Disney selected or approved contractors. I’d wager it’s a combination of cash flow issues and materials shortages. I also can’t imagine that the rent payments are being waived by Disney, as well as some sort of additional compensation to Disney for hurting the brand of the resort.

Which ‘25? 2125?

It will take a long time to interview all 7 billion humans to find the best bakers. This isn’t any old Cake Bake Shop.

I’m so confused on why they decided to hire people for a project not opening until at least summer of ‘25. 🙄

For all the criticism people throw at Disney for slow construction. This is it. This is the one project where no one can say anything 😂 It’s legitimately wild, and I think most cries of slow construction are overblown

And cake fondant.

Not sure why but maybe they are waiting for Cake Bake Shop to open. It would make their parks blog post more plentiful?

See, the world hasn't recovered from the shortage supplies from the pandemic. There's a world wide shortage of faux wood!
