History
Snow White Waffle Shop opened in Hollywood's Christie Realty Building in 1946. The business would later change its name to Snow White Coffee Shop and later still to Snow White Cafe.[1]
Despite the restaurant having no affiliation with The Walt Disney Company,[1] it was decorated with murals featuring characters from Disney's 1937 film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, reportedly created by Disney animators.[2] Additionally, the restaurant's original 1946 menu boasted a “Walt Disney Productions” copyright mark.[1] According to the cafe's former website, The Walt Disney Company allowed this because the owner was friends with Walt Disney.[2][3] Walt Disney was also a patron of the establishment.[4]
