Looks great and a huge upgrade to Monsters.

$9 for a popsicle? What a time to be alive.

And it's officially soft opened:

That better be a heckuva good popsicle, because that's a ridiculous price point!

 

[Imperius]

Would guess the specialty ones that cost $9 have more going on. 5.99 is pretty standard for these kinds of things. Hyppo in St Pete charges like $5.

Just noticed Jai Alai on the menu. Has the parks always carried that?

Yes, on and off. It was on tap at Today Cafe for a bit.

Dang. Been going over to JP for Pseudo or the JW brew only. Good to know US has actual good beer too.

I mean both of those are S tier beers so I get it.

Looks really fun! I really don’t see how anyone can complain about this replacing Monsters, and I was someone initially disappointed by the closure.

True. Just good to know if we’re at US can grab something decent too.

The food was great, the atmosphere was great, the service was great.

Great addition and a much-needed improvement in quick service options.

Overheard a UC TM mention that there's still a bit of work to do with some of the theming, but it looks pretty good to me.

Hoping the rest of the QSRs at the parks receive a similar upgrade/operations setup like this one.

The ice cream novelties at Disney are all $6 as well. It’s a pretty standard price.

Almost like things in theme parks are expensive!

I have forgiven Universal for closing Monsters Cafe. This looks amazing!

It's a net improvement for the park, absolutely.

I'd personally still rather go and sit in the atmosphere of the Monsters Cafe because I'm much more a fan of those characters.

Does the Bake My Day store have a counter of baked goods? Or is all just merchandise and pre-packaged candy?

 

[Jwhee]

Only took 11 months from when there were signs of visual demolition to this opening. Meanwhile epcot is on 2,000 days for flower beds.

Crazy quick!

Yeah, this is a nice upgrade despite my wish that it didn’t come at the expense of Monsters.

Uni needs to work a bit on theming coherence and transitions - seems like that sharp switch from Minions to Transformers could have been softened a bit, perhaps with some comical transformer-y Minion figures or something?

That Sing gorilla is frightening!
