Starbucks Locations at Magic Kingdom Park, and Epcot Set to Open Next Year

[Wendy]

The first two Walt Disney World Resort Starbucks' locations will open next year, one at Magic Kingdom Park and one at Epcot.

At Magic Kingdom Park, Main Street Bakery will close for refurbishment in January 2013 and reopen as a Starbucks location in early summer.

At Epcot, Fountain View will close in March 2013 and reopen as a Starbucks location in midsummer.

Both locations will be designed to fit the theme of their surroundings. At Magic Kingdom Park, for example, cast members will wear a costume consistent with the early 20th century look and feel of Main Street, U.S.A.

At Future World in Epcot, the new Starbucks location and cast member costumes will be designed to match the park’s futuristic theme.

The Starbucks locations at Magic Kingdom Park and Epcot will both offer the full complement of Starbucks signature beverages, artisan breakfast sandwiches and a wide selection of baked goods, including muffins, scones and specialty treats.

WHAT??

As much as I like Starbucks, Im so not happy about the Main Street Bakery being substituted for one!

Starbuck's bakery items are nasty. Their scones in particular; overly sweet hard lumps.

I am shocked to see that Disney are getting involved with a company that has just been announced as avoiding to pay corporate tax

Starbucks, Disney and the USA tax system won't care because it is tax in the UK that they are avoiding, you can bet they are paying what they need to in the USA.
