The Blue Ribbon Bakery was famous for its irresistible pastries and desserts like fresh - baked chocolate chip cookies, chocolate croissants and Mickey Krispie Treats. Now the charming old-fashioned bakery has a new home and a new name:Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe, named after the Sherman Brothers famous song, "Jolly Holiday" from Walt Disney's 1964 film adaptation of "Mary Poppins."
The elegant bakery cafe,once the home of the Plaza Pavilion at the far end of Main Street, U.S.A., will offer more than sweets. In addition to bakery and expresso offerings, the new counter service menu includes deli sandwiches, fruit and cheese plates,soups,salads,coffee,tea and other beverages.
Guests will experience a Victorian influence in the ornamentation adorning the exterior of the Queen Anne - style bakery cafe. Inside, artwork reminiscent of the film includes colorful mosaics of pavement chalk drawings, stained glass windows with penguin waiters and two models of the carousel featured in the film's "Jolly Holiday" sequence. Guests will enjoy a music box soundtrack of "Jolly Holiday" playing in the background as they savor their sweets, sandwiches and beverages.
Did You Know???
The Victorian building that houses the Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe dates back to the opening day of Disneyland when it was known simply as the Pavilion. After many years as the Plaza Pavilion restaurant, it became the Annual Passport Processing Center and also the site for special offerings, such as the Junior Chef program.
So much history, the old with the new. Disneyland Resort will never be finished...Dr Lee
