Gideon’s Bakehouse at Disney Springs is nearing the opening of its second location, with construction permits now filed for Six Ravens, a savory hand pie concept set to open near the bakery. The First Raven LLC, led by Gideon’s founder Steve Lewis, has detailed $5,000 or more in kitchen renovations for the space previously occupied by the Art of Shaving. This marks a shift from speculation to active construction, building excitement among Disney Springs visitors who have come to love Gideon’s Bakehouse.
Six Ravens will offer hearty savory hand pies called Coffyns, featuring fluffy yeast bread and fillings created by Gideon’s team in collaboration with local chefs, aiming to complement rather than compete with Gideon’s renowned cookies and desserts.
What the Kitchen Renovation Means for Disney Springs
Most locations in Disney Springs don’t have full industrial kitchens due to space constraints, relying instead on smaller appliances and shared facilities. Six Ravens is expected to share a main kitchen with Gideon’s Bakehouse for heavy production, while having its own equipment for warming and serving.
The renovation may add necessary appliances, allowing Six Ravens to prepare menu items onsite without needing everything fully prepped offsite. This setup offers operational flexibility while maintaining an intimate scale near Gideon’s original location.
The Menu and Concept
Six Ravens has already teased portions of its menu, describing Coffyns as house-made yeast rolls stuffed with savory fillings that draw on the culinary expertise of local Orlando chefs rather than just replicating standard hand pie recipes. The menu will also feature smashed potatoes, local draft beer, and desserts, creating a grab-and-go savory dining option that addresses different guest needs than what Gideon’s Bakehouse currently serves…
