I think people saw Tropical Hideaway as the next potential Blue (Purple or whatever color it is this week) Wall. Basically that the younger APs would use it as their blogging and instagram HQ.

How many people can fit in Oga’s Cantina? How much is the Disneyland bar raking in? Let’s look at the math - OCR/SCNG

The cantina is the part of SWGE that most feels like Star Wars. I’m not a drinker, but the non alcoholic drinks are really good (carbon freeze is my favorite although hyperdrive is good too) and the blue bantha, besides not being a slushee is infinitely better because the cookie is delicious. I also really like Ogas obsession, having Bolba balls in jello makes for a great and refreshing treat and the pop rocks provide an extra kick. I expect it to be packed for a long time.

What’s not to love about an overly sweet alcoholic beverage? I’m pretty sure it will be a one and done for me unless they introduce some decent snacks/ food. Can you sit there and not buy anything?

That's what I did when I went. I intended to get blue milk but it was so overpriced.
How many people can fit in Savi’s Workshop? How much is the Disneyland lightsaber shop raking in? Let’s do the math
Savi’s Workshop could be raking in more than $100,000 per day and stands to haul in more than $20 million in its first year of operation, according to theme park experts.

How many people can fit in Oga’s Cantina? How much is the Disneyland bar raking in? Let’s look at the math
The Star Wars Land watering hole could be raking in tens of millions of dollars in its first year of operation, according to theme park experts.
>>A little sign over the door just inside Oga’s Cantina tells us a lot about how many people can fit in the new Disneyland bar and how much money the Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge watering hole is raking in every day.
The posted maximum occupancy for the wretched hive of scum and villainy in new Star Wars land at the Anaheim theme park is 276 people.
That means Oga’s Cantina could be raking in nearly $200,000 per day and stands to haul in as much as $70 million in its first year of operation, according to theme park experts. But more on those mind-blowing numbers in a bit.
The Star Wars cantina slinging pricey space cocktails has been doing gangbusters business in the new themed land at Disneyland.
Food and beverage sales from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge are exceeding expectations, Disneyland officials said.

I think this is dramatically overstating the daily visitation and potential sales of this bar. Sure the fire department occupancy sign is 276, but I can't see how they'd get more than 100 customers in there at a time.
There's six banquettes that seat six people. 36 Seats.
There's six tall table tops that could host six people each. 36 Standing.
There's the actual circular bar that has no barstools but could accomodate about two dozen shoulder-to-shoulder. 24 Standing.
That's 96 people, but let's just round up to 100.
In this panoramic photo of the crowded Cantina, we can see 46 customers standing, plus six CM's working behind the bar. Let's assume all the banquettes are full and there's 36 people sitting who are blocked from view by all the people standing. That gets you 82 people. Let's also assume there's 18 additional customers standing in back corners and off camera, or maybe they're just short or are bent over tying their shoes, and you get to 100 customers in this crowded bar.
(And yes, I counted the small child learning about cocktail science in the lower right hand corner)
But let's just inflate that number even further and say you could cram 138 customers in here at any one time, which would get you half of the maximum fire capacity of 276. That would net you exactly one half of the financial figures based on the fire capacity, so you're really looking at $100,000 per day and only $35 Million in sales per year.
So no wonder Mr. Chapek is in such a panic and is cutting the budgets on everything; after he pays the $15 an hour bartenders and the supplier of all that cheap grain alcohol and fructose syrup, he's probably only netting $25 Million per year from his Cantina! Mr. Chapek should set up a gofundme just to keep his 401K topped off, as he's no spring chicken.

I guess we can just safety assume from now on only bars and stores will be added to the parks.How many people can fit in Savi’s Workshop? How much is the Disneyland lightsaber shop raking in? Let’s do the math

Although, I wouldn’t count on Star Wars droid and lightsaber building to always be as popular as it is now. I’m sure once they’ve met initial demand it’ll start evening out.

But they already have the metrics for this. And I guarantee you they know to the penny how much revenue they will add for every category of food service. I think the trickiest calculation is how expanding alcohol in DL, but how it will impact DCA and DTD. But I think it's a net gain. It certainly won't double alcohol sales--that's ridiculous. But do they see an increase of 10% or 20% or more? OTOH, they can compare to the numbers from WDW when Magic Kingdom added and then expanded alcohol sales.

I'd happily trade its federally legal status for another product.

It annoys me that you can find booze in every store, but I have to hunt for Tab.

If Tropical Hideaway had booze it would be packed at all times and there would be a long line to get in. AP's love booze.

And let’s not forget, not everyone in there is buying two drinks. Or even one.
Our waiter was way to disinterested (and vocally told us he was “over the whole thing”) to maintain the drink minimums declared at the door.
Bright suns, or whatever.

Most everyone loves booze.
APs love Disneyland. That’s why the have an AP. Disneyland is full of APs on any given day. Everything after that is redundant to say. It’s like saying the Catholic Church had a bunch of Catholics going up to the altar to take Communion.

Is Tab Cola flavored?
