Fiddler, Fifer and Practical are the stars of the 1933 animated short The Three Little Pigs, Fiddler and Fifer being the work-shirking music lovers and Practical being the forethinking builder of a sturdy brick house. As the story goes, Walt was inspired to create these 3 iconic characters by Dottie, Dolly and Ethel, a 1920s performing trio collectively known as The Silver Lake Sisters. In addition to singing, the sisters each played an instrument, just like their Little Pig counterparts. But unlike The Three Little Pigs, Dottie, Dolly and Ethel loved coffee and thus decided to open a coffee shop.

All over the café’s walls, you’ll see memorabilia from The Silver Lake Sisters’ heyday, from black-and-white publicity photos to posters of venues they’ve played. You’ll also notice a music theme throughout, including booth dividers inset with stained glass featuring instrument motifs. Outside, find open-air seating looking out on bustling Buena Vista Street and the beautiful Art Deco-style Carthay Circle fountain. It’s the perfect place to relax, recharge and gather inspiration for your next adventure.
