The all-new Minion Land at Florida's Universal Orlando Resort is expected to open sometime this summer and will feature a new ride, an immersive restaurant, and a bakery with sweet treats!
Illumination's Minion Cafe
Described as the marquee dining location in Minion Land, Illumination's Minion Cafe will be an immersive dining experience with three themed dining areas:
The Kitchen - showcase the equipment and gear the Minions have used to create the cafe's menu
The Breakroom - showcases the Minions break area with "Office Safety Tips" and a vending machine with "mischievous items."
The Dining Room - A vibrant space featuring colorful artwork of the Minions
There will also be an outdoor patio that overlooks the land.
The menu will feature nearly 20 items inspired by the franchise, such as Otto's Noodle Bowl, Agnes's Honeymoon Soup, Carl's Crispy Cauliflower (vegan offering), Steak & "Cheese Ray" sandwich, as well as desserts: Bob's Teddy Bear Chocolate Cream Puff.
Bake My Day
It will be hard to miss Bake My Day and the large pink cupcake topped with a yellow minion. The bakery will have a whimsical design and feature Minion-themed treats, including cupcakes, macaroons, and s'mores.
It will also sell merchandise, such as clothing, plush toys, drinkware, accessories, and keychains.
Pop-A-Nana
We all know the minions love bananas, so it appears Universal will be opening a popcorn stand inspired by the minions' favorite treat. Banana-flavored popcorn sound good?
Freeze Ray Pops
Freeze Ray! Freeze Ray Pops will have colorful popsicles inspired by Gry, the Minions, and of course, Vector.
Illumination Theater
Here, fans will be able to meet with some of their favorite characters from the Minions movies, including the minions, Gru, Margo, Edith, Agnes, as well as characters from the "Sing" movies – Rosita, Gunter, and Johnny – in an outdoor facade.
