Porto’s Bakery is still coming to Downtown Disney District

For a while now, rumors have been swirling around that Porto’s Bakery had backed out of their deal with Disney and were no longer coming to Downtown Disney District at the Disneyland Resort. However, recent reports indicate that the Southern California bakery is still coming to the Disneyland Resort with plans to open in 2025.

Porto’s Bakery Coming to Downtown Disney District

Porto’s Bakery was initially announced to be coming to Downtown Disney District at the 2022 D23 Expo (now renamed to D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event). However, since then, there has been very little chatter about the bakery still coming except for a few rumors that suggested the bakery had backed out of the deal. But, with all of the recent announcements at the recent D23 fan event, the bakery has stated that they are opening their Downtown Disney District location in 2025.

The bakery is slated to take over the former location of La Brea’s Bakery which is currently occupied by Earl of Sandwich. When the bakery was first announced in 2022, Disney stated that the La Brea’s Bakery building would be demolished and a new building would be constructed for Porto’s Bakery. However, with the news that the bakery is coming to the resort in 2025, the bakery will mostly likely take over the current building since demolition and construction would go well past 2025.

A new location is under construction on the West end of Downtown Disney for Earl of Sandwich which is scheduled to be completed by the end of this year. In the meantime, Earl of Sandwich has opened up a pop-up location near “Star Wars Trading Post”. The sandwich shop is still operating in the La Brea’s Bakery building and no announcement has been made on when their East end location will be closing.

Porto’s Bakery serves a variety of cakes, pastries, international sweets and savory items. The menu for the future Downtown Disney location is not available at this time.
