Minion Café and “portions” of Minion Land at Universal Studios Florida will soft open tomorrow, Saturday, June 17.
Minion Café
Minion Café will sit at the end of Minion Land closest to Battery Park. The restaurant’s sign was recently completed and the full menu was released. The menu includes various bowls, sandwiches, Minion Tots, Fluffy Unicorn Cupcake, and more themed items.
In addition to Minion Café, food and beverage locations will include Freeze Ray Pops, Bake My Day, and Pop-A-Nana. At Pop-A-Nana, guests will be able to get banana-flavored popcorn and Minion-inspired popcorn buckets. Some of these locations may open with Minion Café tomorrow.
Illumination’s Minion Land
Illumination’s Minion Land at Universal Orlando Resort will be opening this summer with a variety of new attractions and eateries for guests.
The land will take over Production Central, transforming it into Illumination Avenue with Minion Café (replacing the former Universal Studios’ Classic Monsters Cafe) and “other surprises inspired by popular characters from Illumination’s blockbuster franchises.”
The back of the Transformers: The Ride show building has been painted teal blue to match the new land.
Bake My Day — which has a giant pink cupcake on its roof — will serve cupcakes, macarons, and s’mores. This venue will also feature a selection of Minion-inspired merchandise, including apparel, plush, drinkware, accessories, keychains, and more. Freeze Ray Pops will have a variety of colorful popsicles inspired by Gru, the Minions, and Vector.
The attractions will be the pre-existing Despicable Me Minion Mayhem and brand new Villain-Con Minion Blast. The façade of Despicable Me Minion Mayhem was recently refurbished.
An entirely different Minion Land also exists at Universal Studios Beijing, meanwhile Minion Park is yet another separate land at Universal Studios Japan, with a clone under construction at Universal Studios Singapore. A version of Minion Café exists at Universal Studios Hollywood.
