Universal Refreshes Comic Strip Cafe Menu After 27 Years

The quiet food-only update points to a strategy of modernizing legacy areas through dining rather than full re-themes.

Overview

  • Universal Orlando confirmed Wednesday that Comic Strip Cafe in Toon Lagoon now serves a refreshed quick-service menu.
  • New options mix comfort food with global flavors, including a double stack cheeseburger, grilled Tuscan chicken, BBQ pulled pork, a Caesar salad, a Dagwood sandwich, mac and cheese, and bowls like orange chicken, teriyaki stir fry, and chicken tikka masala, plus jumbo pizza slices.
  • The building and cartoon-strip theme remain in place, and Universal has not announced plans for a broader re-theme of Toon Lagoon.
  • The update broadens choices for families and diverse groups, aiming to make the venue a practical stop for a full meal rather than a last resort during a park day.
  • This marks the first notable change to the long-running location since Islands of Adventure opened in 1999, reflecting measured resort-wide upgrades following Epic Universe’s debut.
