More commercialization was certainly inevitable after things we have been seeing at DTD! It won't be long before we see other commercial restaurants in the parks!

I love the idea of Starbucks. It is fantastic in DCA but I do not agree with replacing it the iconic Main Street Bakery.

please, oh, tell me please, they are not taking away my cinnamon rolls!!!!!!!

if the way it was handled at Cali is any indication, this is going to be a very classy establishment combining the Starbucks brand inside, with the Disney bakery items inside; the outside will stay themed, and the number of logos you'll see will be very small indeed.

As long as the cinnamon rolls remain Disney, I don't see this as terrible. I would just hope they don't change too much in the facade.

I agree. It is very well done. They had Disney Bakery items (so cinnamon rolls will likely stay) and Starbucks bakery items.

The only problem I have with it is that it's super busy ALL the time in DCA! I like my Starbucks but I don't like the crazy long lines to get my cinnamon roll!

This is an absolutely terrible idea. There is a Starbucks on every street corner everywhere in the country. Magic Kingdom is supposed to be special and magical. There is absolutely nothing magical about yet another Starbucks.

Well said and I couldn't agree more.

I 100% agree with this. Starbucks has no place at Magic Kingdom period! I HATE THIS IDEA!

I was disgusted when I was first reading this.

I still don't like it but have calmed down a little. However, if they do it and don't disturb the Main Street theme, I guess I can't complain.

Think about it this way. The title is basically this if I read correctly:

" A Starbucks is coming to MK" (i know that is not exact words)

or this sounds better:

"Main Street Bakery to now serve Starbucks coffee"

I probably would have thought it better if it was like that. It just like a MK restaurant serving Coke like someone said earlier. Of course, Coke on main street makes sense. lol. I just hope Disney does this right, where we dont see a big lit up sight that says Starbucks Coffee, which I don't think will happen.

Yay, better coffee, and I am confident it will still retains its current look at the location.
