Construction Walls Down at The Cake Bake Shop - October 7 2024
Posted: Monday October 7, 2024 1:05pm ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

The construction walls have officially come down at the new Cake Bake Shop at Disney's BoardWalk, revealing its whimsical façade and intricate detailing.


Along with the removal of the construction walls, we now get a first look at the much-anticipated menu for the Cake Bake Shop – and while the dishes offer a variety of options, many of the prices are notably high.

The Cake Bake Shop menu features offerings from breakfast to lunch and dinner, as well as an extensive cocktail list and a selection of decadent desserts available at the bakery. The menu spans a wide range of tastes and preferences, with both classic and creative dishes that cater to different palates. However, while the atmosphere and menu items provide a unique experience, the premium price points are hard to overlook, making it an option for those looking to indulge rather than an everyday stop.

Breakfast & Brunch Highlights

Served from 7:00 am to 11:00 am, the breakfast and brunch menu includes several options for early risers, but at a significant cost. A plate of Cinnamon Toast Brioche Bites is priced at $24, while Challah Orange French Toast is $26. Even simpler items like Belgian Waffles are listed at $22.

Breakfast cocktails such as Mimosas are priced at $23 and Bloody Marys at $19, making a morning beverage an indulgence. Guests looking for a lighter start can choose the Fruit Plate for $26 or a Broccoli Quiche for $28.

In addition to these items, the menu features other breakfast classics with an upscale twist. The Classic Eggs Benedict is priced at $34, while the Crab Cake Eggs Benedict comes in at $42. The Blackberry Avocado Salade at $26 offers a lighter, refreshing option.

Lunch & Dinner Selections

From 11:00 am to 11:00 pm, the lunch and dinner offerings continue with high pricing. The Croque-Madame is $34, while the Grilled Salmon Sandwich is also $34. Even a Chicken Salade Croissant is priced at $26.

The Charcuterie Board is listed at $78, which may be best shared among a group given the high price. Other highlights include Steak Frites au Poivre for $58 and Crab Cakesfor $52, both of which are positioned as signature entrées meant to offer a memorable dining experience.

For those seeking lighter fare, the Green Goddess Cobb Salade is available for $28, and the Lemon Caesar Salade is priced at $26. The soups, such as the French Onion Soupe at $20 per bowl and the Chicken & Andouille Gumbo at $24, add to the variety of choices available, though they maintain the premium pricing theme seen throughout the menu.

Desserts & Drinks

Desserts are a key highlight of the Cake Bake Shop, featuring items like Gwendolyn's Famous Earl's Court Chocolate Cake at $24 per slice and the Millionaire Cake at $26. The Raspberry Champagne Cake is also priced at $24 per slice, and while these desserts are certainly indulgent, the pricing makes them a luxury treat.

The drink menu includes specialty cocktails such as Gwendolyn's Famous Cosmopolitan for $26 and classics like an Old Fashioned for $24. For champagne enthusiasts, a bottle of Dom Pérignon is available for $600, catering to those looking to celebrate a special occasion in style.

The selection of teas, coffees, and non-alcoholic beverages also maintains the theme of premium pricing. A London Fog Latte is priced at $7, and even a simple Coca-Cola will cost $8.

A Pricey Dining Option on Disney's BoardWalk

The Cake Bake Shop aims to offer an enchanting atmosphere and well-crafted dishes, but they come at a premium cost. With high prices for even basic menu items, the Cake Bake Shop clearly targets those seeking an upscale, special occasion meal rather than an everyday option.

An opening date is not yet available, but with the construction walls now removed, its debut should not be far away.

Imagine what they could charge for a chickene salade sandwiche….

I love it! So much better than most of the QS stuff.

Chef idea Mickey`=4 days ago

Yup

MrPromey5 days ago

Obviously, there's no bottom to how bad a chicken salad sandwich can be but I think there is a ceiling to how high-end you can go with them and I'm not seeing anything suggesting they've done something special, here. The presentation with lettuce falling out into a "salad" may be appealing to some but it looks lazy to me. I look at that and think "that's gotta be easy to plate for a line cook since the entire open side of that croissant is just intentional havoc".

TrainsOfDisney5 days ago

The one that is $10.95?

Chef idea Mickey`=5 days ago

I wonder then What are your thoughts on the Baguette and Ham and cheese in The Boulangerie in The France Pavilion?

TrojanUSC5 days ago

Not really though. Flying Fish next door is in the same price range but offers much "fancier" food by any objective measure. Tons of restaurants at WDW offer creative, unique dishes. CBS's problem is that no matter how hard you try a chicken salad sandwich or a ham & cheese baguette are gonna be fine, not gonna be the best version of each you've had and not worth $30.

One of my mainstays here. Started where I went to school (Auburn, AL). Always consistently good, so I'd chalk your experience up to it being new and having to work out the kinks. I'd give it another go once they get their sea legs.

I stopped working at Subway 10 years ago. Only been back once and even then it was because my friend wanted to go. I wouldn't compare the Cake Bake Shop (and can we please stop using CBS as the short hand) to Subway.

Bocabear5 days ago

New chain opened up in our area called Chicken Salad Chick... Chicken salad on a croissant for $9.99 with a side. Just tried it and it was not great. You would think specializing in Chicken Salad that their Chicken Salad would be amazing...I am sure Gwendolyn's Chicken Salade is much better.... THough I still can't justify a $26 price tag for any chicken salad...even with an extra "e"...

lewisc5 days ago

Or CBS is offering what Disney guests consider fancy food. The criteria could wind up being luxury compared to other Disney restaurants

lewisc5 days ago

You've never had chicken salad from ""restaurants" like Subway.
