I was at Disney's Hollywood Studios and was getting hungry so I stopped off at Starring Rolls for a legendary Butterfinger Cupcake.
I was surprised at first to learn it was a cold treat, but I quickly found out why.
Under the crushed Butterfinger topping was a layer of amazing butter-cream icings surrounding a super moist chocolate cake. In the center of the cake was very rich chocolate fudge.
All totaled it made this HUGE cupcake the best thing ever to use a snack credit on. I want another one right now!
Starring Rolls also offers sandwiches, but they are known for the cupcakes. Why mess with what works?

The food at Starring Rolls is so amazing - the sandwiches are huge and a great value if you're on the meal plan. We also loved the dessert options here - the eclairs were insane. There is only outdoor seating and the lines inside can get crowded but this is a great lunch option.
Pros:
Great sandwiches, huge portions, delicious dessertsCons:

Had a quick breakfast break here in early July 2013. Ordered a chocolate muffin & cinnamon roll for DH, DD(7) & I to share. YUMMY!! Loved each one. Wish we had time to stop back before leaving HS that day, would have liked to try a cupcake.
Only negative - it was very crowded at that time & there was no proper line formation, just a big crowd of people. Also, no napkins?? Might be because they were busy.

One of our favorite breakfast spots during the week! Wished we had time to go back. LOVED the Food! Ate here on 6/8 during Star War Weekends, and it wasn't overly crowded. Hidden gem in my opinion.

We ate here May 16, 2013. We wanted a quick, light snack to tide us over before our dinner at Ohana. When we went in, we were surprised to see a good variety of pastries and bagels with cream cheese. They also offered a limited sandwich menu. I opted for the chocolate croissant while my husband got the plain bagel in cream cheese. we split a large soda. Our total bill was around $10. Even if our son had come with us and we'd each gotten a bagel and a soda, our bill would have been less than $20. The pastry was slightly stale. I think they probably bring them out at the beginning of the day (we went at around 3:00 PM). The bagel was fresh. They toasted it perfectly and gave us plenty of cream cheese. My only other complaint was that you have to sit outdoors and the birds pestered us terribly. Still there was ample shade and at that time of day, plenty of tables. We will return there on our next trip for sure.

I recently grabbed a quick lunch here. I tried the Black forest ham sandwich and a peanut butter cupcake. The sandwich was huge! I had to take half of the meat out to fit it in my mouth. Definitely a great value. The desserts here all look amazing. My cupcake was great but very sweet.
Pros:
So many delicious pastries, cupcakesCons:

This place has really good sandwiches and excellent pastries. I know you've all heard it before but the napoleon is particularly delicious. Given the chaotic, cramped space in which you have to order and the lack of tables outside, the place could be rated lower but the product they deliver is quite satisfactory.
Pros:

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake was no disappointment!! It was excellent - definitely a fork and knife cupcake! Enough to feed 2 (but I admit I ate mine by myself!) Even though I used a snack credit from the dining plan, I definitely would have paid for it!
Pros:
Peanut butter chocolate heaven!Cons:

We ate here on January 25, 2013. We had read the reviews here and really wanted to try the desserts. I would suggest that Disney place instructions for ordering up somewhere in the very small store. There are 2 counter service areas and there is confusion over where to go first.
My daughter and I used our DDP to order Turkey sandwiches--which were very good, but there is no way to customize your order (hold the mayo!). Everything is already prepared ahead of time. We got our desserts and drinks, and then were told to go back and get our chips/fruit which were included on the plan--this was our first day using the DDP so we weren't sure yet what was included.
The dining area is outside under covered tables. Food was very good. Turkey was very fresh. My PB cupcake was huge and delicious. Daughter had a chocolate eclair, which she really enjoyed.
Overall a great place to eat, but there was no menu posted anywhere and the selection of lunch items was limited.
