Gourmet Pantry @ Disney Village....from the 80s...NOT the redone Gourmet/Mickey Pantry from the early 2000's
I really miss the home stores of the past. We bought some great Mickey shaped candles & soaps years ago. I haven't seen anything like that in awhile. The kitchen store was great also.
I LOVED this place!!! Also the adjoining kitchen store. I drove my husband (boyfriend at time) nuts begging for the Mickey waffle maker for Christmas they sold there (it had four small Mickey waffle heads instead of one larger Mickey waffle) . I had regretted not buying it when we visited but somehow he found it and I still use it. That store had the coolest, cutest Mickey appliances and other kitchen things there. The pantry side sold fudge and unique cookies and candies but also chips and other food things like a Wawa. Also, way back in the 70's and 80's the Village itself had very unique stores, like a store that sold topiaries and other plants. Everything now seems so homogenized.
