A Coffee Lover’s Guide to Disney’s Riviera Resort

Imagine it’s a sunny morning at Walt Disney World. You arrived late the night before, and unlike most families, you haven’t got a care in the world.

Topolino’s Terrace

If you’re staying at Disney’s Riviera Resort, you might enjoy the restaurant’s character breakfast at Topolino’s Terrace. If so, may I recommend ordering a press pot of the resort’s blend. It’s a delightful treat for coffee lovers. Here are the other coffees available at breakfast. (Note this restaurant typically requires reservations.)

  • Press Pot Riviera Resort Blend (Featuring Artisanal Roasted Joffrey’s Coffee. A blend of 100% Arabica Beans from Papua New Guinea, Costa Rica, and Kenya. Dark roasted to perfection which delivers a sweet and smoky profile with a rich aroma.)
  • Double Espresso
  • Macchiato (Espresso, Dollop of Frothed Milk)
  • Caffè Latte (Espresso, Steamed Milk)
  • Café Mocha (Espresso, Steamed Milk, Chocolate Syrup)
  • Cappuccino (Espresso, Steamed, Frothed Milk)

The same coffee drinks are also available at dinner service. Dinner at Topolino’s Terrace is considered signature dining. Characters are only available at breakfast. Please note that menu items and prices are subject to change. You can check the most current pricing here on Disney’s website or via the My Disney Experience app.

Lastly, Bar Riva does not list coffee on their menu. However, they do share a kitchen with Primo Piatto, so they should be able to accommodate your order. Or, since it’s a walk-up lounge, you could pick up a coffee next door at the quick service and bring it with you. Coffee or not, Bar Riva is a wonderful place to enjoy lunch, dinner, or a beverage.
