Bello! We’re taking a look at progress on Minion Cafe, which will be part of the renamed Illumination Avenue at Universal Studios Florida. The cafe and Villain-Con Minion Blast are both scheduled to open this summer.

Crews have been seemingly expanding what was once the Monsters Cafe building with new steel supports around the edge. Monsters Cafe closed for good back in May 2022.

Some scaffolding and blue scrims have been erected at one end of the cafe. The construction walls on this end were shifted further into the alley a week ago.

At the other end of the building, two tiers of steel jut out from the building’s entrance.

A grid of steel is along the side facing the main sidewalk.

Minion Cafe isn’t unique to Universal Studios Florida — a Minion Cafe opened at Universal Studios Hollywood in March 2021. It serves various treats and meals with bananas, a favorite snack of Minions.
