Known for its Mickey-shaped beignets and tasty Southern dishes, Scat Cat’s Café has long been a must-visit for Disney fans looking for a sweet or savory treat with a side of French Quarter flair. While the refurbishment may temporarily halt beignet feasts, it’ll only make the experience better when the doors reopen.

If you need to get your snack fix during the refurb, don’t worry, you can still get your hands on those iconic Mickey-shaped beignets and more during the downtime. Popular menu items like the specialty beignets and specialty coffees will be available at Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory, the resort’s main dining location.
