  • It appears that Disney is attempting to get rid of all the bad coffee that plagued the resort, with the announcement last year of Starbucks coming to some places around the resort, with the Main Street Bakery and the Fountain View Cafe getting refurbishment already.  This week, it was announced that Joffrey’s Coffee will be the coffee choice that is now found throughout the resort.
