Disney Springs
Shopping, dining and entertainment

The four areas
Disney Springs is made up of four areas:

- The Landing: waterfront restaurants.
- Town Center: big fashion brands around the springs in the middle.
- West Side: entertainment, with Cirque du Soleil, a cinema and a bowling alley.
Shops
According to Disney, World of Disney has the largest collection of Disney merchandise in the world. You'll also find The LEGO Store, Once Upon a Toy, Disney's Days of Christmas and, in Town Center, brands such as UNIQLO, ZARA, lululemon, Sephora and the Coca-Cola Store.
Food and drink
There are restaurants from seven James Beard chefs, such as Morimoto Asia, Chef Art Smith's Homecomin', Rick Bayless's Frontera Cocina, José Andrés's Jaleo and eet by Maneet Chauhan. On the waterfront you'll find The BOATHOUSE and Paddlefish, and at Raglan Road you can enjoy Irish food with live music. For something sweet, head to Gideon's Bakehouse.
