I was pleasantly surprised with this option within Universal's Hotel Aventura. We had stir fry bowls that were delicious and a big portion for dinner one night. For breakfast one day we shared an omelet that was huge and delicious, another day we shared pancakes which was a tasty smaller breakfast (which is what we wanted so we're happy with it). One other morning we had a sandwich from the legit Starbucks and it was as expected; tasty and overpriced. All these options have a price premium for the convenience factor but it's a much better value than eating in the parks and probably cheaper than ubering to a nearby chain like Waffle House or iHop too. The only complaint I have is that a tiny self-serve coffee (not from Starbucks but from Urban Pantry proper) was like $4 and nothing special. It should have been half that. Urban Pantry itself is an enticing factor to stay at Hotel Aventura again.

The Urban Pantry is a convenient spot to grab a quick snack or any essential toiletries you might need. The selection is decent, and the setup is easy to navigate. The hotel itself is very modern with a sleek, designer feel, which adds to the overall experience. While it’s not a full grocery store, it serves its purpose well for travelers looking for a quick and hassle-free option. A solid choice for convenience!
