The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers is located at Disney’s BoardWalk. We have been keeping a close eye on the restaurant for a long time now, and we are eagerly awaiting its grand opening.

Seating has popped up outside and we have seen private events happening recently, so we are hoping this new restaurant will open its doors soon. We got a glimpse at the menu ahead of the restaurant’s opening a few weeks ago, and we recently noticed that something has CHANGED!

A few weeks ago, The Cake Bake Shop debuted its menu out in front and it was met with some pretty harsh criticism. The first thing that many people noticed were the prices on the menu. Disney fans took to the internet to express their opinions on the menu, with A LOT of the discussion focused on the expensive prices.

When the menu was first unveiled, quiches cost $28, a burger and fries was $32, and grilled cheese on the children’s menu cost $18. One of our readers on Facebook, Cathy, said, “$12 for a croissant ??? Is it gold dipped? Or the size of a cat? Wow. Just wow. ” To say that people were a bit surprised by the prices is a bit of an understatement. Some readers argued that this would be a “special occasion” place and that they can see this restaurant being popular in Disney World.

However, it appears that The Cake Bake Shop heard some of the outrage, as the restaurant just unveiled a NEW menu that features lower prices for many of the menu items. 

Quiches now start at $23.99 for a Broccoli Quiche (which was previously $28), a Classic Burger with Pommes Frites costs $26.99 (was previously $32), and a children’s Grilled Cheese can be purchased for $13.99 (compared to $18 previously).

Drinks have also decreased in price. You can grab a soda like Coca-Cola or Root Beer for $6.99, compared to $8 before. Many of the drinks only decreased a tiny bit, like Iced Tea, Lemonade, and pots of tea that decreased by one cent. And coffee & espresso options actually increased in price. A Cafe Latte now costs $7.99, but it cost $6 before. A Chai Tea Latte now costs $8.99, compared to $7 before.

We are continuing to keep a close eye on this new restaurant and will keep you updated. Make sure to stay tuned to DFB for more Cake Bake Shop news and for all of your Disney World food news!
