Minion Café

[Brian G.]

Minion Café opens at Universal Studios Hollywood

Minion Café has officially opened to the public during Universal’s brand-new “Taste of Universal” event. Sporting a vibrant, retro-style brick exterior with cute murals based on the beloved characters and locations from the source films painted all around, the restaurant brings a new element of life

I'll admit, I'm disappointed.

Gru's Lab was probably too industrial and consequently unfriendly, but this looks like something you'd find in a budget hotel, not a world class theme park.

Pre Nintendoland...I think this works but now after seeing taods place...like why can't all the restaurants be like kinda attractions?

I'm not even talking that much maybe like a shadow window (like in the star tours Q) where you see minions "making the food and being silly" with some sounds. Also a few more props and bam....it would be really cute.
Its just weird to me that people who make pop ups on there own budgets make cool restaurants but theme parks are like...Posters.

Anyway its a who cares because kids and mos adults just want to grab the food and leave anyway..they are not us who want things to feel special and unique

I actually didn't mind the vibe. Modern and whimsical is a tough combo (and modern more won out), but the design works for me. And I actually liked the meatball grilled cheese. It didn't knock my socks off, but liked it.

It gives off a big Googie vibe. Which I guess kind of matches the theme for the Minions movie.

Ah yes, quite compatible within the mise en scene and aesthetic themes of the cinematic classic Minions, released in 2015 by Universal Pictures, and starring the eponymous Minions as themselves. Hi, I'm Ben Mankiewicz...
