But, as the Aerosmith Roller Coster will make way for the new Muppets home, Carousel Coffee has made its new home at The Boardwalk Hotel. I see Disney making these quick Grab & Go spots in other hotels. The Riviera has a similar concept coffee spot. My wife and I woke up and trust me, the last thing you want to do is drink coffee at a Disney park. Yuckko! (Is that even a word?) It was nice to get our coffee at Carousel Coffee, sit in the lobby and just take it all in. The Boardwalk hotel is an iconic hotel for us, I can still see my mom with my kids looking at the gingerbread house. Wearing the Boardwalk DVC sweatshirt I bought her at the gift shop. Now, all I can do is pour myself a coffee and ask for a DVC discount. Which Carousel Coffee does not offer!

If you have any food, allergies or dietary restrictions, you would need to speak to a food chef or manager today, I ordered the Mediterranean salad with vegan feta olives, onions, artichoke, and tomatoes.

It was solid, but I do wish they mixed in the mocha sauce since it all settled to the bottom. I did appreciate that they had oat milk as an option for my drink. We also tried the raspberry brioche, which was really soft and delicious! They have cute and comfortable seating if you plan on eating there. I visited in the morning, so it wasn't too busy and our drinks came out fairly quick. I would definitely recommend Le Petit Cafe if you're staying at the Riviera or a nearby resort.

Still a good spot to stop for your caffeine fix that we will more than likely visit again next time we're in Disney.

They definitely have much better dessert options, I was just going for novelty. All the employees were friendly and I got everything super quick.

Hidden in plain sight on the first floor of the most bonkers hotel ever built (the one with a train…read morerunning through its chest cavity), sits Contempo Grounds -- the kind of place that reminds you Disney understands that adults need caffeine more than kids need churros. History lesson: when the Contemporary opened in 1971, it was all about the future -- monorails, modular construction, Mary Blair murals. But the Imagineers missed one crucial fact: the future doesn't run on nuclear power, it runs on coffee. Contempo Grounds fixes that oversight. The setup is classic Disney grab-and-go, but the quality? Surprisingly solid. Coffee that doesn't taste like it was brewed in Tomorrowland circa 1975, specialty lattes that could hold their own in a hipster café, and pastries that look innocent until you realize you've inhaled three of them. Try the chocolate croissant -- it'll ruin your willpower faster than a BOGO churro cart. It's also one of those weird Disney paradoxes: you're standing in a futuristic mega-hotel, clutching your cappuccino, while the monorail literally glides overhead. It's a caffeine stop and an architectural pilgrimage. Where else can you order a latte with the ambiance of an airport terminal designed by Walt's fever dream? Sure, it's overpriced. But you're at Disney -- your wallet checked into hospice care the moment you hit the parking lot. At least here you're getting something essential: good coffee, quick service, and the ability to pretend you're functioning before a full day of Magic Kingdom chaos. Bourdain would've loved this place for what it is: honest, unpretentious fuel for the Disney machine. No smoke, no mirrors, just caffeine keeping parents alive one latte at a time. Bottom line: Contempo Grounds is the unsung hero of the Contemporary. Without it, the happiest place on Earth would be full of the crankiest people on Earth.

There are tables with umbrellas outside around the corner so that was a bonus.

Classic Disney Quick Service restaurant! Backlot Express located in Hollywood Studios. This used to…read morehave my favorite salad on Disney property but has since been removed. This place is VERY busy during the peak lunch time due to them having burgers and chicken tenders. There are some unique and different options as well. This location has a ton of seating both inside and outside. Let's face it, Florida is hot, so my wife and I never sit outside. We are always making a point to go inside. We also always use the mobile ordering on the app, we find a table, sit down and wait for the food to be ready. Using the app is so much easier, but if you want a lot of customizations, you need to go to the register to order. One of the other perks about Backlot, they are one of the few locations that have fill your own drink station, aka you can get refills. Most days there are people also filling their own bottles with water at the station. I don't love this for sanitary reasons, but the ice goes faster as it cannot keep up with the demand of purchased drinks and personal bottles. Food options are typical theme park: hamburgers, and chicken tenders. However, they do have different items such as a General Tso's bowl, Cuban sandwich and more. I personally love the General Tso's bowl, it's filling and very tasty. This location almost always offers specialty items, such as holiday treats and Star Wars themed items. It is usually a dessert and a cocktail. They are also a location for one of Disney's sauced chicken tenders which came out awhile ago. Disney created a ton of different sauced tenders around their property. Backlot has the honey buffalo which are really delicious. My wife and I have had them a few times. I do hope these stay. Sometimes a chicken tender just hits right! Overall, I would say this is a great place for families, lunch and quick bites. There are a lot of options, lots of seating and the best park, drink refills. I would say check it out.

There is seating inside and outside. In the summer though, I am not sitting outside, so we try to visit at a more off time. It can be tough to find seating inside when its really busy. They also are one of the few locations that have fill your drink station which means you can get refills. And when its hot you will see tons of people filling their own bottles with water at the station. But any place, quick service, that offers free refills, always has a higher rating for me. Drinks at Disney are SO expensive! Their food is very much theme park, hamburgers, chicken tenders, but they also offer a few unique items such as a General Tso's bowl, Cuban sandwich and more. They usually offer specialty items as well. Most recently we went for the Star Wars themed items which included a cocktail and a cupcake. Both were very good. They also offer one of Disney's sauced chicken tenders. Disney came out with sauced chicken tenders awhile ago, with different flavors across property. Backlot has the honey buffalo which are awesome! I really hope these stay around. This is not necessarily a place we visit every time but it is a good stop. There are tons of options for everyone and the free refills is a plus. There are quite a few unique options in studios but Backlot probably has the largest seating area. One of their items that I wish would come back was a salad. It had grilled chicken, avocado, and more with a garlic lime vinaigrette, it was so good! That I will definitely miss! But overall, I would say this is a great place for families. Lots of options, lots of seating and drink refills. It is also sort of near the front in between Indiana Jones and Star Tours. I would highly recommend using the Disney app and mobile ordering.
