Disney Parks, Walt Disney Company: Save the Main Street Bakery!

The Issue

On November 9, 2012, it was announced that the Main Street Bakery in Magic Kingdom would close in early 2013 and re-open later that year as a Starbucks.

While we applaud Disney's movement toward bringing more premium coffee options into its parks for its guests, we do not want to lose that piece of Main Street Americana that is the Main Street Bakery.

We want those unique bakery items that say "Main Street." We do not want the menu of food items that is at every Starbucks around the country.

Disney ~ at most, amend your agreement with Starbucks to only bring it in as your new coffee vendor.

Please keep the Main Street Bakery in Magic Kingdom as it is ~ wonderfully unique, nostalgic and special ~ for all current and future Disney guests.
