The Starbucks in the Marketplace at Disney Springs will close early next week for a refurbishment that is expected to last about two weeks.

The Marketplace Starbucks at Disney Springs in Walt Disney World

The closure begins on September 9, with a reopening planned on September 23, 2024.

The ten-year-old kiosk in front of World of Disney and across from the waterside stage is set to receive a fresh makeover.

After the Marketplace Starbucks reopens, the flagship West Side location is also expected to close for a significant update.

Opened on May 19, 2014, the Marketplace Starbucks was the third Starbucks to open at Walt Disney World, following the locations at Magic Kingdom’s Main Street Bakery and Epcot’s Fountain View. This walk-up spot has become popular for its convenient location and quick service.

I agree. I guess, based on many recent renovations, it now fully matches the modern design of Walt Disney World hotel rooms. So, yay consistent theme?

"Fresh" new look? It looks the exact same boring bland aesthetic that literally every store has now. Can we please go back to interesting design?

I am struggling to care...because its a Starbucks...

Hmm, I don't hate this! But I do think the mural (itself a lazy way to theme) would have been more successful had the animals been removed and it was just the regional landscape and flora, which would have done a better job at conveying the intent behind it. The exterior should have also played into that more. But I do like the vibe! (for a Starbucks)

I look forward to Cotino Amazon.

Prices will go up refurbishment or not I presume? I always wondered about refurbishments. Are they going to freshen up things or make corrections in customer flow in this case? Over in Downtown Disney on the west coast, they are refurbishing a Sunglass Hut? Why? It’s a Sunglass Hut. Sometimes I think these companies have a refurbishment budget and they either use the money or lose the money. One refurbishment I wish never happened was EPCOT future world 🙁

Seems they are trying to evoke the vibe of where they source a bunch of their coffee (not that they don’t source from around the world) but I know Asia and Central/South America tend to be where they purchase a lot of their beans. I mean that’s probably most coffee beans in general but I digress. I feel that was the vision here

It's a really long springs.

Maybe it's just the picture, but more than jungle themed I just see another wall mural and an overall look that matches Connections at Epcot.

A jungle theme in Disney Springs?? Ummm...

This was an interesting choice... Like @Bocabear said - not sure why this is here... But, I guess it's nice enough? I still think the main Epic Universe one is my favorite, even though it's relatively small.

It's the new Disney way of mixing up themes throughout the property...Moana in Tomorrowland? Sure! Ariel on Main Street? Perfect!, Cars in Frontierland? A natural choice! Jungle themed Starbucks in Disney Springs? The perfect fit! lol Actually it looks very nice... And I agree their pre-prepared food shipped in from a factory somewhere and reheated is pretty dismal. Love their coffee, hate the food....But then again it is a coffee shop, not a restaurant.
