New Shopping and Dining Experiences Coming to Downtown Disney
Exciting changes are on the horizon for the Downtown Disney District at Disneyland Resort! From trendy athletic wear to handmade bath treats and unique boba drinks, several new spots are set to enhance the vibrant atmosphere.

lululemon Brings Activewear to Downtown Disney
Get ready to shop at the new lululemon store coming to Downtown Disney! Known for its innovative athletic apparel, footwear, and accessories, lululemon offers gear for yoga, running, training, and more. Guests will find a wide range of products, including bags, gloves, hats, scarves, water bottles, yoga blocks, and mats. The store will be located in the space of the former ESPN Zone building, offering visitors a sleek and stylish retail experience.
Nectar Life: Handcrafted Bath Bliss
Nectar Life is set to delight guests with its luxurious handmade bath products crafted from vegan, natural, and plant-based ingredients. The shop will offer popular items like moisturizing whipped soaps, body scrubs, exfoliating hand washes, and curated gift sets.
Visitors can also explore a unique custom blending bar to create personalized scents for body butters and roll-ons. A special feature will be the Soap Mini Bar, where guests can dispense their own blend of soap minis in a variety of shapes and fragrances. Ahead of the official store opening near Avengers Reserve later this year, a pop-up will appear this spring, giving a sneak peek of what’s to come.
Bopo Go! Boba and More: A New Café Experience
Craving boba? Downtown Disney will soon welcome Bopo Go!, an exciting new café concept by Eric Wang and Philip Wang of Bopomofo Café fame. Known for its high-quality bubble tea made from real fruits, vegetables, lactose-free milk, oat milk, and natural sweeteners, Bopo Go! promises refreshing, authentic flavors.
Inspired by Asian convenience stores, the café will also feature signature drinks, light bites, and imported snacks. Tea is sourced from Taiwanese farmers, while matcha comes from Japan, ensuring top-notch quality with every sip.
Arthur & Sons Steakhouse and Pearl’s Roadside BBQ: Culinary Delights
Two new dining concepts from Michelin-starred Chef Joe Isidori are also on the way:
-
Arthur & Sons Steak and Bourbon: A sophisticated steakhouse offering premium beef, fresh seafood, sandwiches, and salads. The elegant interior features crisp lines, rich wood tones, and a prominent bar.
-
Pearl’s Roadside BBQ: A casual spot blending modern barbecue with North Carolina cookout traditions. Expect pulled pork, brisket, smoked turkey, and house-made sauces. The rustic décor will evoke a vintage filling station vibe, complete with a spacious patio and the welcoming Shine Bar.
