It is slightly odd that we're getting an uber-themed mini street facade for the Cafe.

I will never complain that something is too themed, so I'm fine with that element, but it does make the first two lightly-dressed showbuildings feel even more like just that: lightly-dressed showbuildings.

Yup. A facade similar to what Secret Life of Pets got would have been much preferred.

When they first announced Minion Cafe I was kind of annoyed, but honestly, I'm kinda more excited for this than the attraction now lol

Universal has leveraged themed food offerings to an art form. Wizarding World showed the whole industry the potential...

Some quick thoughts:
1. Man the word cafe is hard to read in this concept art.
2. The popcorn stand is on the same side as the cafe. (Maybe this has changed and moved across the street? or maybe they are doing separate updates like other food booths across the resort.)
3. Are the people behind the popcorn stand in the extended queue for transformers, or are they waiting in line for the restaurant?
4. Love seeing the “standalone” freeze ray pops store next to Bake my Day.

Yeah I gotta say - this looks really cool.

The different themed rooms sound interesting, and the food items look good. The Steak and Cheese Ray sandwich looks awesome.

It really does... and it makes Blast and Mayhem look substantially worse by comparison.

I didn’t care about this much but with this concept art, I’m actually kinda excited.

Also, at what point do they get rid of Transformers and replace it with SLOP? I’d personally be very excited for that.

Concept art shows them, and there’s still dirt and planters in production central, just begging for trees. Hopefully it happens


Would love to see an expansion of this with Sing on Tour inside of stage 18/nick studios building

I see shadows along the street as if there’s a legit forest on the other side of the cafe but we all know that’s concert space that’s got to stay grass.

I don’t think the little alcove next to the Transformers queue counts. I just wanted something to make the post-HHN hangover walk from the entrance to the Mummy slightly less miserable than the inner circle of hell

I wouldn't read too much into concept art as it relates to trees. we'll see what it looks like when all the walls come down and dirt is filled in. I'm also hoping for some shade, whether that's from trees, canopies or what have you.

I like it! Justtttt wish it wasn’t the first impression of the park for most people (real fans turn right down Hollywood when entering ;))

They really should give Rockit an IncrediCoaster style makeover. They’ve already gone this far with the surrounding area
