Disney4me Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Say it ain’t so… Learn About:Starring Rolls Cafe Disney's Hollywood StudiosDisney World Restaurants Actually, those are the same words that came to mind when Writer’s Stop — a unique little coffee and pastry shop that used to be open in Hollywood Studios — closed a few months ago to make way for construction of the future Toy Story and Star Wars lands. Only this time, these words apply to yet another beloved pastry stop in Hollywood Studios: Starring Rolls Cafe, located on the intersection of Hollywood and Sunset Boulevards. While Starring Rolls IS open today from 9:00 am – 3:00PM, we were told when we were in the shop recently that starting February 5th, 2017, the location will be shuttered. Here are the details: Starring Rolls Cafe is, indeed, closed starting tomorrow, February 5th. The Cast Members — who will be moved to other locations — have not been informed as to whether or not the spot will reopen in the future. Starring Rolls Cafe in Disney’s Hollywood Studios Wow. While Writer’s Stop was known and loved primarily for one snack above all else, the Carrot Cake Cookie, but I don’t even know where to begin with Starring Rolls. How can I possibly narrow down from ALL the favorites that have come from Starring Rolls over the years? Butterfinger Cupcake at Starring Rolls Cafe First, this was one of the key spots you could ALWAYS count on for amazing cupcakes. We’re talking total home runs here, from the Butterfinger Cupcake and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake, to the ol’ Red Velvet Cheesecake Cupcake and the (much missed) Marble Cupcake. Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake Starring Rolls, in my opinion, was one of the places that put Disney World squarely on the map when it comes to cupcakes. Not into cupcakes? Not a problem. You could always grab a Tiramisu, an Eclair, a Turnover, a White Chocolate Chip Brownie, a Fruit Tart, a “Banana Split,” a Napoleon… the list goes on and on. Napoleon at Starring Rolls Cafe Starring Rolls has also been a place to find savory sandwiches like the HUGE and gorgeous Pastrami, among others (until now, as the sandwiches have already been removed) and a few speciality coffee drinks. Pastrami Sandwich Speaking of coffee… several of those aforementioned snacks, many of which were previously unique to Starring Rolls, were suddenly also found at The Trolley Car Cafe — the Studios Starbucks location — when it opened in 2015. Though some items went by other names (i.e., the Butterfinger Cupcake was known as the “Chocolate Toffee Cupcake” in opening days, and is now called the “Chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch Cupcake”), these special snacks were so well known to us that it was impossible not to spot them all over the Trolley Car bakery cases.

In fact, here are a few pictures taken today, where you can spot a few of the favorites in the Trolley Car case.
