Construction walls up along Grand Avenue at Hollywood Studios. New snack stand coming?

[tissandtully]

This is gonna be the nicest snack kiosk or it should for how long it took. Glad they didn't announce it as a churro stand like Universal does for their rides or everyone would be sorely disappointed lol.

I think I found it, it was issued back in March. Doesn't tell us much. Expiration date is 3/26/2024 which is one year from when it was issued so most likely a default expiration.

357 B CYPRESS DR(GRAND AVE COKE KIOSK) - General Construction

Interesting, is Coke Kiosk a normal identifier for these? Would be cool if Disney ever did Freestyle stations.

It's the other kind of coke kiosk, in keeping with the Hollywood theme.

I don't expect WDW to go the full Universal route of a 1-time purchase for all-day drinking, but I think Freestyle machines help reduce the need for additional staffing and could be a potential revenue driver in themed souvenir bottles.

Popcorn buckets and themed beverage containers sell well at WDW, now imagine one that is actually usable lol

I don't drink soda at the parks but would love these machines added so I can fill up my water bottle for free without using a disgusting water fountain or having to wait in line to ask a CM for a cup.

Yeah, they usually have some sort of iced tea in them now, so that's what I usually get or some Powerade or flavored sparkling water. But sometimes a coke on a hot day just hits right.

Can you imagine the mark up...

I wish they would get rid of all the Freestyle machines everywhere!

I guess it's actually a good thing since I just end up drinking water instead, but standard Coke from Freestyle machines is disgusting and doesn't taste even remotely similar to Coke from cans, bottles, or normal fountain machines.

I hate the Freestyle machines as well.

Not only is the taste subpar when compared to their traditional soda fountain counterparts, but they also sometimes produce lines because of customers sampling the various flavor combinations.

I have never seen that term used by Disney.

Disney has never used a Freestyle machine (at the parks) (that I know of) I don’t know why they would start now.

Is this the $30 million addition to DHS the insiders were talking about?

 

[MisterPenguin]

It's a new attraction that combines Frozen and Cars.
