There see, you've hit the nail on the head, the whole idea is to keep guests on property and not going to the Mall.

Quite a lot of live music in different areas, bars and restaurants - we love watching with a drink.

Im not a fan, it seems its less Disney and more about the money these days. Which is understandable I guess. I preferred it as Downtown Disney when I went in 2005 and 2006, it felt alot more relaxed and kinda Disney then. We went in Oct 2015 and couldnt believe the change, we only went there twice, as it was really busy but it wasn't something we really enjoyed anymore.

We want last a couple of Saturdays ago.
The place was heaving and felt like an open air shopping mall.
Queues everywhere & no charm or character whatsoever.

I'm sure some like it, but we won't be returning unless we go to Cirque...

Drat all this talk of shops means I`m going to get dragged back to DS next year by my clan! We went last year, admittedly in the middle of all the disruption, and I hated it. Took us over an hour to park, really cramped and 1 1/2 hour wait for dinner... perhaps I was just tired and in a bad mood!

It felt like an upmarket outlet mall, without the benefit of cheap prices. They've made a good job of it but its not for me.

I liked to wonder around it... but can't say I really buy anything there, it all just seems over priced. I associate shopping in the US with getting a bargain compared to our over-inflated UK prices... seems to happen less and less these days though

And I can never decided on where to eat. I mean on paper all the restaurants at DS (new and old) sound lovely but nothing quite grabs my attention... tell me I'm wrong?

Have you not seen Eddy Maserati dancing at Disney Springs. We watched live entertainment from the outside part of the Hanger Bar, and he was there joining in.
