The “Six Ravens” opening at Disney Springs marks a major expansion for the Gideon’s Bakehouse universe in Summer 2026. This new savory-focused spot will take over the former Art of Shaving space in The Landing, bringing a medieval-inspired menu of hand pies known as “Coffyns” and local craft beers to the heart of Walt Disney World. If you have been waiting for a savory counterpart to those famous half-pound cookies, the wait is almost over.

The landscape of Disney Springs is about to shift again, and this time, the scent of vanilla and chocolate is being joined by the aroma of fresh yeast and savory spices. For years, the legend of Gideon’s Bakehouse Disney Springs has been defined by its gothic atmosphere and massive cookies. However, the announcement of Six Ravens Disney Springs signals a new chapter in the storytelling of owner Steve Lewis. This is not just a second location for cookies. It is an entirely new culinary concept designed to fill a gap in the Disney Springs quick-service market.

As we look toward the Summer 2026 expansion, the anticipation for Six Ravens Disney Springs is building. Fans who have spent hours waiting for a Coffee Cake Cookie now have a savory destination to look forward to.

What Is Six Ravens at Disney Springs?

Six Ravens Disney Springs is the official “savory story” counterpart to the world-famous Gideon’s Bakehouse. While the original bakery focuses on the sweet, the indulgent, and the eerie, Six Ravens Disney Springs is designed to offer a quick-service savory experience that remains deeply rooted in the brand’s signature gothic lore. The concept was born from a desire to meet a grab-and-go need at Disney Springs, specifically within a small footprint that allows for high-quality, artisanal food without the need for a full sit-down service.

The relationship between Six Ravens and Gideon’s Bakehouse is one of siblinghood rather than duplication. Steve Lewis, the creative force behind the brand, has envisioned this space as a way to expand the “Gideon’s Universe.” The aesthetic will remain consistent with the Victorian-gothic vibes that fans love, but the focus shifts from the library-like bakery to a more rustic, medieval-inspired setting. It is located just a few doors down from the existing Gideon’s location in The Landing, specifically in the storefront previously occupied by The Art of Shaving.

This location choice is strategic. The Landing has become the culinary heart of Disney Springs, home to heavy hitters like The Boathouse, Morimoto Asia, and STK Orlando. By placing Six Ravens in this high-traffic area, this ensures that it is easily accessible for guests who might be looking for a hearty snack or a light meal between shopping or before a show. The small space will focus on efficiency, offering a menu that is easy to carry while exploring the rest of the springs.

The Medieval Inspiration Behind Six Ravens Disney Springs

The name “Six Ravens” is far more than just a catchy title; it is a direct nod to one of London’s most enduring legends. According to folklore, at least six ravens must remain at the Tower of London at all times. The legend suggests that if the ravens ever leave the Tower, the Kingdom of England will fall. This sense of protection, mystery, and history is the foundation upon which the new shop is built. It fits perfectly into the existing Gideon’s lore, which has always leaned into Victorian and gothic storytelling.

Beyond the name, the shop’s culinary inspiration comes from the Medieval European and English Tudor periods. During these eras, pastry was often used as a vessel for preservation as much as for taste. Large, thick-crusted pies were known as “coffyns,” and they were designed to protect the flavorful fillings during long journeys or pilgrimages. Steve Lewis has taken this historical concept and modernized it for a Disney Springs audience, creating a product that is both a tribute to the past and a fresh offering for the present.

The gothic aesthetic that has made Gideon’s a global phenomenon will be fully realized here as well. Expect dark wood, antique-inspired fixtures, and a level of detail that makes the shop feel like it has been part of the Disney Springs landscape for centuries. This commitment to storytelling is what often separates the brand from other quick-service spots. When you walk into Six Ravens, you are not just walking into a sandwich shop; you are entering a specific moment in time, guided by the “First Raven” himself.

Everything to Know About Six Ravens Coffyns

The star of the show at Six Ravens is undoubtedly the Coffyn. This is a house-made yeast roll that is fully encased and stuffed with various savory fillings. Unlike a traditional sandwich where the bread is a separate entity, the Coffyn is a cohesive unit. The dough is a fluffy, artisanal yeast bread that is baked around the ingredients, ensuring that every bite is a perfect balance of bread and filling.

The term “Coffyn” is an intentional misspelling of the archaic word for a pastry crust. In medieval times, these crusts were often discarded after the filling was eaten, but at Six Ravens Disney Springs, the bread is just as much a part of the experience as the interior. These are designed to be “grab-and-go” hand pies, making them the ultimate park-goer food. They are hearty enough to serve as a light lunch but portable enough to eat while walking toward the West Side for a show.

One of the most exciting aspects of the Coffyn menu is the spirit of collaboration. Steve Lewis has partnered with some of Central Florida’s most talented chefs to create unique, rotating fillings. This approach allows Six Ravens Disney Springs to act as a spotlight for the broader Orlando food scene, introducing international crowds to local culinary superstars. For example, the first major menu tease is a Curried Chicken Salad Coffyn, developed in partnership with Eliot Hillis and Seth Parker of Red Panda Noodle. This ensures that the flavor profiles are complex, chef-driven, and far beyond standard theme park fare.

Side Items and Savory Pairings at Six Ravens Disney Springs

While the Coffyns are the main attraction, the side menu is designed to complement the savory flavors with equal care. The signature side dish at Six Ravens is the Smashed Potato. These are not your standard fries. They are rustic, hand-smashed potatoes that are prepared to have a crispy exterior and a soft, fluffy interior. They provide a hearty, earthy base that pairs perfectly with the bread-heavy Coffyns.

Dipping sauces will play a major role in the side-dish experience. Two confirmed sauces that have already generated significant buzz are the “World Famous” Honey Mustard and the Sweet Heat. The honey mustard is a house-made creation that leans into the Gideon’s commitment to high-quality, small-batch ingredients. The Sweet Heat dip offers a spicy kick that is balanced by a touch of sweetness, providing a versatile pairing for both the potatoes and the crusts of the Coffyns.

Even though the focus is on savory, the team hasn’t forgotten its roots in the world of sweets. The menu will also include Dessert Tarts, which serve as a bridge between the savory world of Six Ravens and the sweet world of Gideon’s Bakehouse. These tarts are expected to follow the same artisanal standards as the cookies, featuring unique seasonal flavors that change regularly. This allows guests to get a complete “savory and sweet” experience in a single stop at Six Ravens.

Local Beers and Beverages on Tap at Six Ravens Disney Springs

A savory hand pie deserves a proper beverage to wash it down, and Six Ravens Disney Springs is leaning heavily into the local craft beer scene to provide exactly that. The beverage program is a collaboration with Orlando favorites Sideward Brewing and The Ravenous Pig Brewing Co.. This is a direct callback to Steve Lewis’s own history, as he got his start at Disney Springs as a “secret menu item” at The Polite Pig (owned by the team behind The Ravenous Pig).

The draft list will feature custom beers specifically selected or crafted to pair with the savory fillings of the Coffyns. While the exact names of the brews remain a closely guarded secret, rumors of a Six Ravens Red have circulated among local beer enthusiasts. The goal is to provide a refreshing, local alternative to the standard domestic beers found elsewhere in the parks, further cementing Six Ravens Disney Springs as a destination for those who appreciate Central Florida’s artisanal culture.

For those who prefer non-alcoholic options, Six Ravens will feature root beer on tap. Much like the cold brew program at Gideon’s, the root beer is expected to be a specialty offering with a deep, complex flavor profile that stands on its own. Whether you are looking for a craft pint or a family-friendly soda, the beverage program at Six Ravens Disney Springs is designed to be just as much of a draw as the food itself.

How Six Ravens Fits Into the Disney Springs Landscape

The addition of Six Ravens Disney Springs is part of a broader Summer 2026 expansion that seeks to revitalize several areas of Disney Springs. While Six Ravens anchors The Landing, the West Side is preparing for the opening of Level99. This is a massive, 40,000-square-foot social gaming venue that is taking over the former NBA Experience building. Level99 will feature over 60 life-sized challenge rooms, physical puzzles, and its own two-story bar serving Detroit-style pizza.

The synergy between these two openings is clear. Walt Disney World is moving toward more “interactive” and “artisanal” experiences that cater to both adults and families. A guest might spend their afternoon tackling the physical challenges at Level99 before heading over to The Landing for a savory Coffyn and a local beer at Six Ravens. This combination of high-energy social gaming and high-quality artisanal food represents the future of the Disney Springs experience.

Furthermore, the proximity to the original Gideon’s Bakehouse allows for a unique “double-dipping” experience for fans. You can join the queue for cookies, then grab a savory lunch at Six Ravens. This should help distribute the fans that typically cluster around the Gideon’s Bakehouse storefront, providing a secondary outlet for the brand’s fans to explore while staying within the same themed universe.

Tips for Visiting Six Ravens in Summer 2026

If history is any indication, Six Ravens will be one of the most popular quick-service spots in Disney Springs from day one. Based on the patterns seen at Gideon’s Bakehouse, guests should be prepared for significant crowds. While it is currently unknown if Six Ravens will implement a virtual queue, it is wise to plan your visit for earlier in the day or during traditional “off-peak” hours (such as Tuesday or Wednesday afternoons).

The freshest Coffyns will likely be available right at opening. Since the dough is a house-made yeast bread, the quality will be at its peak when the rolls are warm and just out of the oven. If you are looking for the ultimate experience, try to time your visit for a weekday morning. This not only gives you the best chance at a short wait but also ensures you have first pick of the daily filling collaborations before they potentially sell out.
