PI Update: Snacking On Pleasure Island

With the closing of Pleasure Island's last snack location, thought I'd go through the archives and see what other options existed on the Island over the years.  Certainly most of you would remember Stage Pizza. For the years I hung out on Pleasure Island it was located near Mannequins adjacent the No. 2 Bridge. There were always long lines for pizza around 2am.  After PI permanently closed in 2008, Stage Pizza was temporarily resurrected to help liven things up and was placed in this spot between Soundstage and Adventurers Club. It seemed like you could never find the girl that was supposed to be working in there; every time I was there she had snuck down the AC stairs behind the booth to have a cigarette!

My favorite snack location was the Missing Link Sausage Company, located along with several shops in the building that now houses Paradiso 37.  It was a great late night place for burgers and hot dogs as well as a large order of fries around 1am to soak up the alcohol!  The place closed around 2006 and the building was entirely gutted for a future use never revealed.  Disney apparently didn't know either because in 2008 when P37 contracted to go in there, the building had to be gutted entirely again to meet their needs.

That brings us to the Adventurers Club Cart, located appropriately enough next to Adventurers Club.  This was a place to get popcorn, sodas and Mickey popsicles.  During the 2011 purge on any buildings that still had PI club name signs on them, Adventurers Club Cart became simply Adventures Hut.  The picture above was taken less than a week ago when it was still closed one early afternoon.  But unless they've relocated AH to some other place on the Island, it must be permanently closed now since its location is blocked by those new demolition walls!
