The tour groups will love this. Sorry for everyone else....

There are already tables there and is still pretty quiet. I don't know how many people even know this spot exists.

I welcome anything with some benches and air conditioning!

While this is great......it's just going to give away the REAL best kept secret! We always enjoy hiding in there because it's cool and empty. No more empty

I've never seen any tables. This is the area near the Electric Umbrella, right? The long curved hallway with nothing in it?

The tables are fairly recent. They are near the doors where club cool is.

No, this is the area behind Starbucks that basically only has restrooms in it. They also have the Epcot timeline on the wall with photos. They recently added tables and chairs in there about a month ago.

Great area, hopefully it stays relaxing with plenty of space.

Yeah, that's the hallway I'm thinking of. To the left, that little hall goes to a couple restrooms, then I THOUGHT it continued on to Umbrella. But maybe it's Starbucks.

When we were there in August, there were no tables or chairs. Just a nice, big, open, frigid hallway with nobody else in it.

I was just there and didn't notice it. Sure coulda used it though.

 

[JEANYLASER]

I think that is awesome idea! I love to seat down and read a book!

THEY ARE TAKING OVER MY FAVORITE SPOT!?!?!?!?!??!?!!?!

Okay, question for the Disney historians, what used to be in that hallway? I distinctly remember there being some sort of a shop or museum or something. I've only been alive since 1995 so whatever I'm thinking about was after that.

It has been a hallway for a long time. The room to the left in the picture above hosted the EPCOT history exhibits for a while, but its been shuttered for years.

Starbucks. Umbrella is in Innovations East.

When Centorium closed down to be made into MouseGears the store was temporarily moved there.

Where the Epcot 25th exhibit was the Imagineering Labs where they first showed the prototype of what became the Aladdin Magic Carpet attraction at DisneyQuest...

Did I get them mixed up? My bad if I did.

That sounds like that could be about right! Thanks!

Interesting! Thanks for the pictures! Wish there was more images out there of places like this and the Anne of Green Gables store in Canada!
