Is it worth the money?
Only if you want Starbucks — which, first thing in the morning, a lot of people do.
Disney Food Blog says it gets super crowded in the morning and suggests coming about an hour after opening. It also has a detail worth knowing: you can earn Starbucks stars here only by paying through the Starbucks app, and you cannot redeem stars at any in-park Starbucks.
Who it’s right for
Starbucks regulars, and anyone after the carrot cake whoopie pie.
Who it’s wrong for
Anyone in a hurry at opening, and anyone hoping to spend Starbucks rewards.
What is actually good
Starbucks, with a few Hollywood Studios extras. Seasonal grande drinks run from $5.75 for a pistachio cold brew to $6.95 for a protein matcha latte.
The Carrot Cake Whoopie Pie at $6.29 is the local favourite — Disney Food Blog's long-time pick. Breakfast sandwiches run $5.29 to $6.59, and the Mickey-shaped Cinnamon Roll is $7.49. Prices checked 12 September 2026, from Disney's own menu.
Portions
Starbucks sizes: breakfast or a snack, not lunch.
