This pressed sandwich was our favorite of the four and is perfect for this time of year.

All the sandwiches are returning from last year. This one was formerly known as the Holiday Leftovers Sandwich.

The bread is amazing, with a hearty fall flavor and a nice crunch. The turkey gravy on the side really brings this whole sandwich together.

Chocolate Pressed S’mores Sandwich – $10.49

Chocolate brioche filled with ganache, marshmallow cream, marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs

This s’mores sandwich tastes exactly like a Pop-Tart. The chocolate and marshmallow are perfectly balanced, and the chocolate isn’t too overpowering.

“VBLT” Sandwich – $11.49

Smoked tempeh bacon, Divina tomatoes, arugula, vegan pepper jack cheese, and tomato aioli

This vegan offering is excellent. The tomato aioli gives this a rich, slightly sweet flavor that compliments the spicy vegan pepper jack cheese and tempeh bacon.

It might not be the most filling sandwich of the four, but it’s a delicious vegan offering that is sure to please.

Peanut Butter Fluff n’ Stuff Sandwich – $10.49

Creamy peanut butter, raspberry jelly, and marshmallow cream

This might not be a deep friend PB&J, but it certainly is impressive. The combination of peanut butter, jelly, and marshmallow fluff is perfection.

The toasted, crunchy bread and warm filling make this sweet little sandwich a must-have.

The marshmallows added a super salty caramel flavor to an otherwise rich and decadent hot chocolate. It’s a step above regular hot chocolate, and we’ll be back for more.

Hot Chocolate – $3.99

Classic Nog – $14.50

with Bacardi 4 year aged rum

Fire Nog – $14.25

with Fireball Cinnamon Whisky

These aren’t pre-mixed drinks, so the liquor is poured into the cup, and then eggnog is added. You may want to stir it up before drinking.

eggnog-deluxe-mistletoe-pines-village-review-universal-orlando-citywalk-6-9061277

The creamy, cold eggnog masks the alcohol well and makes this easy to drink. It’s very heavy, but perfect for this time of year. This isn’t an overly strong drink, but it was tasty. You can never go wrong with eggnog at Christmas time. 

Non-alcoholic Nog – $6.50

Brooklyn Winter IPA – $12

Shiner Holiday Cheer – $10.50

*NEW* Mulled Wine – $13.00

Spice infused, served with smoked dried cherries and an orange wheel

This isn’t quite what we think of when we hear “mulled wine,” but it’s good. It’s served cold with cherries and an orange wheel. It’s got a bit of sweetness and richness from the fruit, but it’s pretty simple. Once we finished our wine, it was nice to have an orange wheel and cherries to eat. We would recommend it if you’re not a fan of eggnog but need something a little stronger than hot chocolate.
