lululemon Coming to Former ESPN Zone

Athletic wear giant lululemon plans to open a new store in Downtown Disney. The retailer will occupy a portion of the former ESPN Zone building.

This location will offer a wide selection of athletic apparel and accessories. Shoppers can explore products for yoga, running, training, golf, tennis, and more activities. The store will also feature essential items like bags, water bottles, hats, and yoga equipment.

Nectar Life Brings Handmade Bath Products

Nectar Life plans to join Downtown Disney with its collection of handcrafted bath and body items. The brand creates all products with vegan, natural, and plant-based ingredients.

At this new location, guests can visit a custom blending bar to create personal fragrances. These custom scents can then transform into shea body butters or fragrance roll-ons.

For the first time ever, Nectar Life will feature a customization bar where visitors can make their own bath soaks and whipped soap. Plus, a Soap Mini Bar will let guests of all ages create custom blends of shaped soaps in various scents.

Before the main store opens later this year near Avengers Reserve, a pop-up shop will launch this spring. This gives shoppers an early chance to experience these popular products.

Bopo Go! Introduces Asian-Inspired Cafe

Downtown Disney will also welcome Bopo Go!, a new café concept from Eric Wang and Philip Wang. The co-owners already operate several Bopomofo Café locations across Southern California.

Bopo Go! will serve authentic bubble tea made with real fruits, vegetables, and natural sweeteners. The cafe sources tea directly from Taiwan and uses ceremonial grade matcha from Japan.

The concept draws inspiration from Asian convenience stores. Beyond signature beverages, the menu will include light bites, imported snacks, and candies.

New Details About Arthur & Sons and Pearl’s Roadside BBQ

Fresh design plans reveal more about two upcoming restaurants from Michelin-starred Chef Joe Isidori.

Arthur & Sons Steak and Bourbon will feature crisp lines and rich wood tones throughout the interior. The steakhouse will offer comfortable yet sophisticated dining with plush booths, warm table seating, and private dining options. A prominent bar will serve bourbon and specialty cocktails.

Meanwhile, Pearl’s Roadside BBQ will blend modern barbecue with traditional North Carolina cookout flavors. Inside, a hand-painted mural and vintage filling station décor create a nostalgic atmosphere. The restaurant will include a spacious patio and Shine Bar overlooking the Downtown Disney promenade.

The BBQ joint plans to serve pulled pork, beef brisket, and smoked heritage turkey with house-made sauces. These dishes will cook “low and slow” using fragrant hickory and oak wood.

With these additions, Downtown Disney continues to grow as a premier destination for shopping, dining, and entertainment at the Disneyland Resort.
