The Cake Bake Shop is located at the end of Disney's Boardwalk shopping and dining district, near Epcot and Hollywood Studios. The restaurant is not owned or operated by Disney but sits on Disney's property. 29.
The Cake Bake Shop's interior features white walls, Victorian-style ceilings, golden chandeliers, and grey leather banquettes. Meanwhile, Disney's new Lightning Lane system has drawn criticism for being expensive and requiring guests to stay on property to qualify. Research indicates that many guests bought Lightning Lanes, creating bottlenecks in standard lines, and that the system aims to price many out of the market to reduce fast lane congestion.
I hate myself for even suggesting this but is Disney losing the plot in the wake of Universal's expansion ?
A Theme Park Insider commenter said Disney is removing iconic areas and replacing them with poorly thought out attractions in response to Universal's new park, and that rides are breaking down at a time when Big Thunder will be closed for redevelopment. Another commenter stated that Disney has become elitist in pricing, turning away from its core demographic of families.
It's my belief that all is not well at Disney. The Champions of Theme Park entertainment might be losing their grip and might be in decline.
I know that , with great reluctance, I'll be turning my head towards the likes of Busch Gardens and Knotts as alternatives to Universal. Disney will be beyond my budget.
