Back in late January, we learned that Panda Express at Carowinds would relocate from their current location across from Midway Market to the Joe Cool Cafe building.

The current Panda Express building has a long history at the park but with the added patronage and being added to the Carowinds dining plans, they have outgrown the space and were looking to upgrade their accommodations.

Fortunately, just footsteps away is Joe Cool Cafe.

For the 2017 season, the former Joe Cool Cafe will receive a complete facelift for the modern era of Panda Express. The new facade is very similar to the architecture of the standalone stores located outside the park.

The new building has more than enough space to accommodate large crowds as there are dual lines for the really busy days.

The former Panda Express building has been razed.
