Aside from cafe beverages, they also have some bottled selections in their fridges which include water bottles, juice, milk, and more.

Breakfast

Though this cafe serves Starbucks beverages, they don't have a bakery like typical Starbucks cafes do. Instead, they offer delicious breakfast options such as parfaits, acai bowls, oatmeal, sandwiches, and other fuel for long days of shopping or exploring! In addition, they have some to-go snacks such as chips, which are a perfect snack to bring on your next outing to hold you over until dinner.

Other Items

Since this is located within a resort, they also offer some convenient last-minute toiletries in case you forgot to pack them for your trip! Some products include toothpaste, toothbrushes, sunscreen, and more. There is a wider selection of toiletries and everyday household items at Sam's Club.
