Hi there, Jeffrey!
Welcome to
planDisney! I'm thrilled you've popped by to chat about a true essential for any
Walt Disney World morning - coffee! So, let's get brewing!
I was buzzing with excitement when
Carousel Coffee opened at
Disney's BoardWalk Inn. My family and I frequently stay at
Disney's BoardWalk Villas, so having this cozy java spot right off the lobby is a dream. It's ideally located just outside the elevator bank, making it an easy stop before heading out for the day. And with doors typically opening at 6:30 in the morning, it's perfect for early risers like me.
I understand the conflicting internet reports; Carousel Coffee opened in late 2022 and has seen some slight operational tweaks since its debut. Additionally, Guest experience may vary. When I last visited this location, Guests could bring their refillable mugs to the counter, where a Cast Member offered them a disposable cup with either drip coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. Carousel Coffee has no soda fountain, so head to BoardWalk Deli for soft drinks and self-service refills.
I hope this is helpful! I recommend bringing your mug to Carousel Coffee to see if refills are offered during your stay. If not, take the steps down to Disney's BoardWalk from the resort lobby, make a right, and walk until you reach BoardWalk Deli. Bonus: use
Mobile Food & Beverage Ordering to snag some tasty snacks with your cup of joe. The combo will perk you right up!
Thanks again for sending your question to us, Jeffrey. Please don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything else we can do to make your next trip even more magical.
See ya real soon,
Betsy
