How Disney Does Starbucks: A Photo Tour of the New Downtown Disney Starbucks in Anaheim

Wouldn't be incredible if Disney and Starbucks came together to make a mega Coffee house and dropped it smack dab in the middle of Downtown Disney at the Disneyland Resort. You know what they say, "When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true..." Well they did and it is glorious! The most beautiful Starbucks Coffee location has just opened right next door to the World of Disney Store. Just as you come off the tram and head down in the direction of Disney Parks, you are met with the most aesthetically pleasing Starbucks, we've ever seen. This place is gorgeous, open, airy, and HUGE - but we wouldn't have expected anything less from Disney.

Disney Sisters' Tips 

1. The lines were very long and there are no fastpasses! (Say it isn't so!) However, there are a lot of windows open with lots of hustling employees and all things considered, it did move fairly fast. 

2. The Downtown Disney location does not use the special Disney version cups, so if you want Disney whimsy, those are only sold inside the two Park locations.

3. This DTD location does accept Starbucks gift certificates and gift cards. Sweet!

A Magical Brew: Starbucks is Coming to Disneyland

Here's an equation for you Disneyland + Starbucks = A Magical Brew.

We've been really enjoying having our fancy Starbucks coffee while walking down Buena Vista Street at Disney California Adventure Park, check out this cute couple enjoying the evening there during Dapper Day 2013.

GOOD NEWS! 

Disney Parks Blog has just announced that Disneyland will also be adding a Starbucks. It will be built inside Market House and you can get yourself a Carmel Macchiato or whatever your favorite drink of choice is starting this fall. Just in time for all of those yummy holiday drinks... Pumpkin Spice Latte anyone?

Every time we go to Fiddler, Fifer and Practical Cafe there is a line, which is no different from any other location in the rest of the world. But by far, the best part about getting a coffee at the Happiest Place on Earth has to be the cups. They are personalized just for Disney! Tinker Bell, along with the Castle, Mickey, Minnie shapes (& more) are on the cup with a sprinkling of Pixie Dust! We think that a hot beverage tastes even better when drinken from these magical cups. (Proven fact amongst Disney Geeks) Market House closes next month, and when it reopens it will, "still be themed as a turn-of-the-century general store, serving Starbucks products and a selection of specialty Disney pastries" says Disney Parks. But there is a downside, since they will no longer be serving Disney branded coffee, they will no longer be offering free refills. As for us, we're just looking forward to ordering our "usuals."
