As invited media, Disney provided WDWNT with a gift card for food and beverage for the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, so some of the following coverage was hosted. As always, WDWNT will still provide our honest thoughts on all below.

The 2024 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival has officially started! While you’re visiting the park and taking in all of the beautiful topiaries, don’t forget to stop into the various Outdoor Kitchens for some delicious, fresh, tasty bites. To help you figure out which are the best from Flower & Garden, and which we recommend staying away from, check out our complete reviews for each kitchen below or keep scrolling for our video review.

BRUNCHCOT

Food:

• Avocado Toast – $6
• 🆕 Biscuit and Gravy with Impossible™ Chicken Fried Steak and Impossible Sausage Gravy – $6.75
• Fried Cinnamon Roll Bites – $5

Beverages:

• Froot Loops® Shake (non-alcoholic) – $5
• Peach Bellini – $11.50
• Coffee Cocktail: Joffrey’s Coffee™ with Milk, Vanilla Vodka, Kahlúa Rum and Coffee Liqueur – $11

Avocado Toast – $6

with Marinated Tomatoes and Plant-Based Cheese Crumbles on Toasted Ciabatta

Rank out of 7: 6

The avocado toast is sure to be a popular option! It is LOADED with creamy avocado, covering nearly the entire portion of the toast. The toast itself is quite nice, offering a nice exterior crunch with a soft inside. The tomatoes are flavorful, and the plant-based cheese is good. Considering this is a trendy dish served nearly anywhere you could go for brunch, we’re happy to see it at the festival, even if this isn’t the memorable take on the dish.

*NEW* Biscuit and Gravy – $6.75

with Impossible Chicken Fried Steak and Impossible Sausage Gravy

Rank out of 7: 2

Many of the plant-based options are good, but this is not one of them. The biscuit and gravy are nice, but they’re ruined by the dry and chewy Impossible meat.

Fried Cinnamon Roll Bites – $5

with Cream Cheese Frosting and Candied Bacon

Rank out of 7: 7

Phenomenal. While it’s not advertised, these are also cream-filled. The crispy, flakey, cinnamon-covered exterior, matched with rich cream and a hint of bacon, makes for a glorious combination. These would be an item we would get every time we visit EPCOT, if we could. It’s also a pretty solid serving size for the price.

Froot Loops Shake (non-alcoholic) – $5

Rank out of 7: 5

We were excited to try this, but it was beyond even our expectations. The shake itself tastes like a bowl of Froot Loops, as the milk has absorbed all of the sugary, fruity taste of the cereal. We don’t recommend using a straw, because getting the crunch of the Fruit Loops breaks up the texture of the shake. If you’re looking for something interesting or new that you haven’t had before, we recommend checking this out.

Peach Bellini – $11.50

Rank out of 7: 4

This is a very champagne-forward drink. We had a bit of a problem as most of our peach flavoring was found sitting at the bottom of the glass, but after we gave the drink a good stir, everything mixed together nicely. Our biggest gripe is that this is a bit on the smaller side for the price, and there are probably better options available at another kitchen. However, this drink is refreshing and fruity should you choose to give it a try.

Coffee Cocktail – $11

Joffrey’s Coffee™ with Milk, Vanilla Vodka, Kahlúa Rum and Coffee Liqueur

Rank out of 7: 6

We love a coffee cocktail, and this one is certainly very good. It tastes very similar to the often admired Tipsy Ducks in Love from the Joy of Tea kiosk in China (which we love). With more alcohol and less creaminess in the flavor profile, this may be a rare coffee cocktail from a theme park that pleases many guests with different palates.

Brunchcot is located at World Discovery near Test Track. You can find it at number 3 on the map below.

EPCOT Farmers Feast

Early Bloom Menu (Available Feb. 28 through March 30)

Food:

• 🆕Veal Loin – $8.50
• Strawberry Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake – $4.75
• Grilled Street Corn on the Cob – $5.75

Beverages:

• Hibiscus Lemonade Cocktail – $12
• 🆕Frozen Lemon Tea Cocktail – $12

*NEW* Veal Loin – $8.50

with Spring Pea Risotto featuring Ben’s Original International Grains Arborio Rice and Red Wine Syrup

Rank out of 7: 5

The veal is juicy and pairs well with the pungent sauce. The rice is cooked well and makes a good base for the dish.

Strawberry Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake – $4.75

with Crème Fraîche Whipped Cream

Rank out of 7: 7

This dessert was very fruit-forward, coming off as tart, but still very good. We found the cake to be very moist. You could taste the rhubarb, which was subtle and complimented the strawberry nicely. While the white dollop next to the cake might look like ice cream, it’s Crème Fraîche whipped cream (fancy French whipped cream.) It was delicious! The whole dish was amazing, and we recommend getting this dessert.

Grilled Street Corn on the Cob – $5.75

with Savory Garlic Spread and Plant-Based Cheese

Rank out of 7: 5

The seasoning on this corn on the cob is good, but nothing special. Corn on the cob is usually street food for fairs and flea markets, so it feels like there was a lack of effort/ingenuity in creating this for the outdoor kitchen.

It would have been better if it was hot, but that’s always a gamble with festival food. The vegan cheese is the weakest part, but overall, it’s good.

Hibiscus Lemonade Cocktail – $12

featuring Islamorada Brewery and Distillery Hibiscus Gin

Rank out of 7: 5

The first sip of this beverage was extremely tart, to the point that it made our mouths pucker. After letting the ice melt a little bit, this was a nice lemonade option. The strong notes of hibiscus and the dry gin help balance out the sour lemonade. If you enjoy tropical hibiscus flavors and dry gin, this would be a refreshing choice!

*NEW* Frozen Lemon Tea Cocktail – $12

with Bärenjäger Honey and Bourbon

Rank out of 7: 6

This is a strong cocktail with an equally strong honey flavor reminiscent of Halls lozenges. It’s alcohol-forward.

Late Bloom Menu (Available March 31 through May 27)

Food:

• Grilled Street Corn on the Cob – $5.75
• 🆕Seared Scallop – $7.75
• 🆕Blueberry Buckle – $4.75

*NEW* Seared Scallop – $7.75

with Tomato Risotto featuring Ben’s Original International Grains Arborio Rice and Tomato Beurre Blanc

Rank out of 7: 5

The scallop was prepared perfectly and flavorful. It paired well with the risotto and sauce, which was delectable. We wish it had more than one scallop. It was so good but the portion was small.

*NEW* Blueberry Buckle – $4.75

with Lemon Crème Fraiche

Rank out of 7: 6

This is basically a coffee cake with blueberries inside and blueberries on the side. It was a home run. The brown sugar and butter taste of the streusel-like crumble topping was amazing and its texture contrasted the rest of the dish well. We wanted more.

EPCOT Farmer’s Feast is located at World Discovery near the bridge to World Showcase. You can find it at number 4 on the map below.

The Citrus Blossom

Food:

• Orange Sesame Tempura Shrimp – $7
• Lemon Meringue Pie – $4.75

Beverages:

• Orange-Lemon Smoothie in a Souvenir Orange Bird Sipper Cup (non-alcoholic) – $15
• 🆕Key Lime Wine Slush – $12
• 🆕Left Hand Brewing Lemon Drop Shandy, Longmont, CO – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• 🆕Southern Tier Brewing Company Orange Twist Imperial Ale, Lakewood, NY – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• 🆕Stone Brewing Tangerine Express Hazy IPA, Escondido, CA – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.

Orange Sesame Tempura Shrimp – $7

with Orange-Chile Sauce

Rank out of 7: 3

This dish is a great size for a festival, however we found the flavor to be lacking. There wasn’t much of the Orange-Chile sauce to be found, leaving the overall taste of this dish to be deep-fried. If we had more of the sauce, we think this could’ve been pretty good.

Lemon Meringue Pie – $4.75

Lemon Curd, Lemon Mousse, and Toasted Meringue

Rank out of 7: 2

This is extremely sour and very tart. The crust does nothing but hold it together. If you love lemon, maybe you’ll like this, but it didn’t do anything for us.

Orange-Lemon Smoothie in a Souvenir Orange Bird Sipper Cup (non-alcoholic) – $15

Rank out of 7: 7

If you’re looking for a (cute) nonalcoholic beverage, this is one of our favorites. The smoothie tastes similar to a Creamsicle, with a little bit of lemon sorbet mixed in. It’s sweet, but still incredibly refreshing.

*NEW* Key Lime Wine Slush – $12

Rank out of 7: 7

This has the perfect iconic Key Lime tartness in a smooth, cool slush.

The Citrus Blossom is located at The Odyssey Pavilion. You can find it at number 5 on the map below.

Florida Fresh 

Food:

• 🆕Grilled Warm Lobster Tail – $11.25
• 🆕Cubanito – $6.50
• 🆕Florida Strawberry Shortcake – $5

Beverages:

• Cucumber Watermelon Slushy (non-alcoholic) – $5
• Cucumber Watermelon Slushy with Gin – $13

*NEW* Grilled Warm Lobster Tail – $11.25

with Key Lime Butter

Rank out of 7: 7

We were blown away by this. It’s fantastic. The thick serving of lobster is perfectly paired with the butter, which offers just enough hint of lime to make it unique. This is one of the best savory dishes we’ve ever had at an EPCOT festival.

*NEW* Cubanito – $6.50

with Mojo-Marinated Pork Belly, Ham, Swiss Cheese, Pickles, and Stone Ground Mustard Sauce

Rank out of 7: 7

The two new dishes here are both huge successes. This is the best Cuban sandwich we’ve had. Everything was balanced and fresh.

*NEW* Florida Strawberry Shortcake – $5

Rank out of 7: 5

This plant-based version of a strawberry shortcake is fresh and delicious. The cake is moist and not at all chewy. Don’t go out of your way to get it, but it’s a good option for the Garden Graze.

Cucumber Watermelon Slushy (non-alcoholic) – $5

Rank out of 7: 3

There are a lot of cucumber-heavy drinks this year. Those who enjoy cucumber drinks may enjoy this, but our group wasn’t partial to any of the cucumber-forward options.

Cucumber Watermelon Slushy with Gin – $13

Rank out of 7: 4

It has a strong cucumber flavor. It’s a little sharp but refreshing. The gin gives it a slight improvement over the non-alcoholic version.

Florida Fresh is located near Disney Traders. You can find it at number 27 on the map below.

Jardin de Fiestas

Food:

• 🆕Flan de Guayaba – $6.50
• 🆕Sope de Chilorio – $8.50
• 🆕Tamale de Rajas – $8.75

Beverages:

• 🆕Lychee Margarita – $14.50
• 🆕Floral Margarita – $14
• Craft Mexican Lager – $6 for 6 oz./$11 for 12 oz.

*NEW* Flan de Guayaba – $6.50

Vanilla Flan with Guava Coulis, Whipped Cream, and Fresh Fruit

Rank out of 7: 6

This is the best dish at Jardin de Fiestas. It’s a very good flan with perfect texture and it’s well complemented by the guava coulis.

*NEW* Sope de Chilorio – $8.50

Guajillo Pepper-Braised Pork on Fried Corn Shells with Black Beans, Shredded Cabbage, Crema Mexicana, Queso Fresco and Chives

Rank out of 7: 5

This is fairly similar to past dishes here and doesn’t offer anything exciting, but it’s a solid dish. The meat is excellent. The corn shell is unfortunately dry but has a good flavor.

*NEW* Tamale de Rajas – $8.75

Poblano Peppers, Corn, and Cheese in Masa topped with Poblano Cream Sauce, Crema Mexicana, Pickled Carrots, and Onions with Chives

Rank out of 7: 3

It’s not disgusting, but the masa is overpowering. The other flavors hardly come through.

*NEW* Lychee Margarita – $14.50

Centinela Blanco Tequila, Lychee Liqueur, Citrus Juice and Agave Nectar

Rank out of 7: 1

This is terrible. It tastes medicinal.

*NEW* Floral Margarita – $14

Cherry Liqueur, Mezcal, Hibiscus Tea and Lime Juice

Rank out of 7: 3

The Floral Margarita is also medicinal-tasting, but it gets a slight boost from the fruit flavors. We still wouldn’t drink it again.

Jardin de Fiestas is located near the Mexico Pavilion. You can find it at number 8 on the map below.

Lotus House

Food:

• Spicy Mala Chicken Skewer – $6.75
• House-made Cheesy Crab Wontons – $8.25
• Pan-fried Vegetable Dumplings – $5.50

Beverages:

• 🆕Mango Bubble Tea (non-alcoholic) – $7.75
• 🆕Dragon Dynasty – $14.50
• 🆕Lucky Peach – $14.25
• Brew Hub Honey Jasmine Lager Draft Beer – $5.50 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• Tropical Moon – $14

Spicy Mala Chicken Skewer – $6.75

with Creamy Peanut Sauce

Rank out of 7: 4

The chicken was a little dry, but the sauce was spicy and sweet. This had a real spicy kick, and we liked it, but each bite had a different taste, giving it some inconsistency. Overall, it’s still a decent option.

House-made Cheesy Crab Wontons – $8.25

Rank out of 7: 4

The wontons are fine, but they didn’t have a lot of crab meat. You get two wontons for the price, and they’re pretty tasty, so if you’re in the mood for these, we wouldn’t discourage it.

Pan-fried Vegetable Dumplings – $5.50

Rank out of 7: 1

While the presentation of this dish is pretty, that’s the only compliment we can give it. The top of a dumpling should be crunchy, but this was a rock. It was incredibly hard to cut through and resembled what we think chewing plastic is probably like. It’s vile and tough. The flavor isn’t good. This is probably one of the worst dishes we’ve had. If you’re looking for something similar, we recommend the spring rolls from the quick service in this pavilion.

*NEW* Mango Bubble Tea (non-alcoholic) – $7.75

Rank out of 7: 3

The tea is refreshing if you’re looking for a nice, non-alcoholic drink, but the boba are flavorless.

*NEW* Dragon Dynasty – $14.50

Baijiu Spirit, Light Rum, Dragon Fruit, Piña Colada Mix and Soda Water

Rank out of 7: 5

The tropical notes are great, with the piña colada mix adding a note that tastes a little like suntan lotion smells, but not in a bad way.

*NEW* Lucky Peach – $14.25

Peach Whiskey, Oolong Tea, Honey, Lemon Juice and Soda Water

Rank out of 7: 3

This was our least favorite drink at Lotus House. It’s fine, it’s drinkable, but it’s boring and a little sticky.

Tropical Moon – $14

Vodka, Triple Sec, Passion Fruit, Soda Water, and White Boba Pearls

Rank out of 7: 5

Due to the color, it may be difficult to see, but there are boba pearls in this drink, mostly hiding at the bottom. While we enjoyed the cocktail, which had a zesty, citrusy taste, we could’ve done without the boba pearls. We found they had a weird, Jello-like texture. However, if you sip around those, this drink is great.

Lotus House is located at the China Pavilion. You can find it at number 9 on the map below.

Bauernmarkt: Farmer’s Market

Food:

• Potato Pancakes – $5.25
• Toasted Pretzel Bread – $6
• Warm Cheese Strudel – $4.75

Beverages:

• Bitburger Premium Pils, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• Stiegl Brewery Radler Raspberry, Salzburg, Austria – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• Flensburger Dunkel, Flensburg, Germany – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• Apfelschaumwein – $10.50

Potato Pancakes – $5.25

with House-Made Apple Sauce

Rank out of 7: 4

You can taste the onions, the hash brown flavor of the potato, and the applesauce. It’s a very simple dish, but delivers what it promises. However, with so many options, we’d probably recommend other dishes, since this one isn’t terribly special.

Toasted Pretzel Bread – $6

topped with Black Forest Ham and Melted Gruyère Cheese

Rank out of 7: 7

We don’t even know the proper words to describe how unexpectedly amazing this dish was. The pretzel bread was filled with gooey cheese and black forest ham that oozed out when we cut into it. All of the flavors mix wonderfully together, making one of the best items we’ve ever had at Flower & Garden since they started Outdoor Kitchens.

Warm Cheese Strudel – $4.75

with Mixed Berries

Rank out of 7: 6

The strudel was a perfect combination of fruit, cheese, and flaky crust. Everything came out warm, making for a very good dessert.

Apfelschaumwein – $10.50

Sparkling Wine and Apple Liqueur

Rank out of 7: 5

This was similar to ice wine, but it would have been better if it had been colder. The fresh rosemary sprig gave it a nice herbal flavor, helping cut down the overwhelming sweetness of the spiced apple taste. This is a unique drink that you can’t easily get, so we recommend trying it at least once.

Bauernmarkt is located at the Germany Pavilion. You can find it at number 11 on the map below.

Primavera Kitchen

Food:

• 🆕Arrabbiata – $9.25
• 🆕Bocconcini – $7.50
• 🆕Chocolate Cannoli – $5.75
• 🆕Quattro Formaggi – $6.75

Beverages:

• Peroni Brewing Peroni Pilsner – $6.50 for 6 oz./$11 for 12 oz.
• Sauvignon Blanc – $14
• Prosecco – $11.75
• Italian Sangria Red or White – $12
• Italian Margarita with Limoncello and Tequila – $12
• Italian Mineral Water – $4.25

*NEW* Arrabbiata – $9.25

Pennette Pasta, Spicy Tomato Sauce, and Buttery Shrimp

Rank out of 7: 5

This was a pleasant surprise. The pasta was a little al dente for our preferences, but not as bad as the dishes here usually are. The shrimp weren’t too fishy, and the sauce was decently spiced.

*NEW* Bocconcini – $7.50

Mozzarella Bocconcini, Grape Tomatoes, and Pesto Sauce

Rank out of 7: 4

This is a supermarket-quality salad. It’s neither bad nor good. The presentation is cute but not enough so to be a must-have.

*NEW* Chocolate Cannoli – $5.75

Chocolate-Covered Cannoli Shell with Peanut Butter-Ricotta Filling

Rank out of 7: 2

This was so close to being good. The chocolate was tasty, and the peanut butter ricotta filling was amazing. However, the cannoli shell is inedible. It has the taste and texture of chalk.

*NEW* Quattro Formaggi – $6.75

Pennette Pasta and Four-Cheese Sauce

Rank out of 7: 3

This looks like something you’d find in a college cafeteria, but it wasn’t as gross as it seemed. Still, you could microwave a freezer meal at home for the same quality.

Red Italian Sangria – $12

Rank out of 7: 2

Have you ever put red wine in the microwave? That’s what this is. We thought sangria came with ice and fruit, but this was just a room-temperature liquid. The flavor was fruity, so it could have been really good, but as it got hotter, it was just too warm to drink.

White Italian Sangria – $12

Rank out of 7: 2

Usually, when a Sangria beverage of this price contains more juice than wine, we would complain. However, since the wine in this drink tasted particularly cheap and unpleasant, it was somewhat of a relief. The drink was supposed to contain Prosecco, however, this was unidentifiable from the lack of fizz in the drink.

Italian Margarita with Limoncello and Tequila – $12

Rank out of 7: 4

The margarita was quite good as it tasted almost like a melting lemon ice dessert. However, there didn’t seem to be much liquor in the drink, as we didn’t taste much besides the faint hint of tequila. Overall, this is a tasty drink, but don’t expect to get much alcohol for your money here.

Primavera Kitchen is located at the Italy Pavilion. You can find it at number 12 on the map below.

Magnolia Terrace

Food:

• Bananas Foster Bread Pudding – $4.75
• Muffuletta Panini – $6.25
• Spicy Chicken Gumbo – $6.25

Beverages:

• 🆕Schneider Weisse Love Beer Weissbier, Kelheim, Germany – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• 🆕Urban Artifact Capy Snacks Fruit Punch Fruit Ale, Cincinnati, OH – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• Bayou Cocktail – $12.50
• Parish Brewing Co. Ghost in the Machine Double IPA, Broussard, LA – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.

Bananas Foster Bread Pudding – $4.75

Rank out of 7: 4

This reminded us of the monkey bread from River Belle Terrace in Disneyland. It tastes like a bread pudding with some banana flavoring. The parts soaked with caramel sauce are great. We were sad as we dug more to find the inside of the cake on the dry side, putting this item firmly in the “mediocre” category.

Muffuletta Panini – $6.25

with Ham, Salami, Mortadella, Provolone, and Swiss with Olive Salad

Rank out of 7: 5

This just tastes like a mortadella sandwich, exactly what we were expecting. The olives give it a kick of flavor. The bread is crispy and looks burnt, but has a perfect consistency. It is very spicy. It’s overall a good sandwich.

Spicy Chicken Gumbo – $6.25

with Andouille Sausage and Long Grain and Wild Rice

Rank out of 7: 7

Don’t let the appearance fool you. This is probably one of the better dishes, if not the best one, at the festival. There was definitely a kick of spice in the right places. The roux was nice and dark, which is common in more authentic gumbos because that means it’s been cooked down longer. It was hearty, with decent portions of chicken and gumbo. We loved this.

Bayou Cocktail – $10.25

Spiced Rum, Coconut Rum, Fruit Punch and Orange Juice

Rank out of 7: 5

This was a basic concoction, but we enjoyed it. It was nicely balanced between the two rums, fruit juice, and orange juice. Tropical and delicious, it tasted like Mardi Gras to us. As far as premixed cocktails are concerned, this is one of the better options at the festival. Grab one of these, sit back, and let the good times roll!

Magnolia Terrace is located at the American Adventure. You can find it at number 14 on the map below.

Hanami

Food:

• 🆕Ramen Cup – $8.50
• 🆕Steam Bun – $8.50
• Frushi – $7.75

Beverages:

• 🆕Watermelon-Strawberry Lemonade (non-alcoholic) – $6.75
• 🆕Ichigo Breeze Cocktail Sake – $7.75
• 🆕Orange Blossom Brewing Co. Cherry Blossom Green Tea Pilsner – $5 for 6 oz./$9.50 for 12 oz.
• 🆕Ozeki Pineapple Nigori Sake – $9.75

*NEW* Ramen Cup – $7.75

Ramen Salad shaken in a cup with Fresh Vegetables, Grilled Chicken, and Dashi Broth with Chili Oil and Yuzu

Rank out of 7: 5

We thought this was nicely flavored for summer, and the sauce was very good. The yuzu comes through just enough. However, it’s overpriced for what you get.

*NEW* Steam Bun – $8.50

filled with Vegetables and Plant-based Soy Meat

Rank out of 7: 6

The plant-based meat works well here, and the bun itself has an authentic taste and texture. This is one of the best vegan options this year.

Frushi – $7.75

Strawberry, Pineapple, and Lychee wrapped in Coconut Rice and Pink Soy Wrap served with Whipped Cream, Drizzled Raspberry Sauce, and Toasted Coconut

Rank out of 7: 5

The popular Frushi returns with a dish that’s just as pleasant as the previous years. Not only does Frushi taste great, but it looks good too. The sweet rice wrapped around the different fruits makes for a crisp and refreshing snack.

*NEW* Watermelon-Strawberry Lemonade (non-alcoholic) – $6.75

Rank out of 7: 1

We will not be returning for this. It’s basically syrup — nauseatingly so.

*NEW* Ichigo Breeze Cocktail – $7.75

Sake with Strawberry and Watermelon

Rank out of 7: 3

The Sake makes this a little better, but the bar was so low in the first place. We don’t recommend this either.

Hanami is located at the Japan Pavilion. You can find it at number 16 on the map below.

Tangierine Café: Flavors of the Medina

Food:

• Grilled Kebabs – $6.25
• 🆕Mediterranean Flatbread – $6
• Orange Blossom-Saffron Cake – $5

Beverages:

• 🆕Keel Farms Pear Honeysuckle Hard Cider, Plant City, FL – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• 🆕Woodchuck Imperial Sippin’ Citrus Hard Cider, Middlebury, VT – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• 3 Daughters Brewing Pomegranate Hard Cider, St. Petersburg, FL – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• Pomegranate Mimosa – $11.50

Grilled Kebabs with Lamb Kefta – $6.25

with Carrot-Chickpea Salad and Garlic Aïoli

Rank out of 7: 5

If you’re a spicy food lover, we recommend trying this kebab. The lamb is tender, and absolutely packed with spice. The small chickpea salad on the side helps cut the heat a bit, and we found it to be the perfect balance.

Grilled Kebabs with Chermoula Chicken – $6.25

with Carrot-Chickpea Salad and Garlic Aïoli

Rank out of 7: 5

The chicken is thigh meat, and it’s tender and seasoned well. The salad it sits upon is raisin, chickpea, and shredded carrots, topped with garlic aioli. We found the salad is the perfect complement, adding a bit of sweetness to the dish. Both options are great, though we prefer the chicken just a bit more.

*NEW* Mediterranean Flatbread – $6

with Chermoula, Roasted Vegetables, Artichoke, Olives and Feta Cheese

Rank out of 7: 6

The flatbread crust has a nice, charred edge with a soft interior, but the real standout is the toppings. They’re fresh and earthy, each balancing the other for a fantastic combination. This is one of Walt Disney World’s best fast food pizzas.

Orange Blossom-Saffron Cake – $5

Rank out of 7: 6

This one’s interesting because it has an outer shell. It has an unusual flavor, but we liked it. The outside coating tastes like white chocolate, while the inside tastes like vanilla custard. The saffron base does overwhelm your taste buds a bit, but we’re not complaining. Meanwhile, the cake is fantastic; it’s incredibly fresh. We enjoyed this, and due to its very large serving size, we recommend grabbing one and sharing it with your friends.

Pomegranate Mimosa – $11.50

Rank out of 7: 5

We enjoyed this. It’s mostly champagne with aromatics of pomegranate at the end. We found the seeds in our drink were stuck to the bottom, but we got them after tapping the bottom a bit. The champagne flavor is more prominent than the juice, but, it’s another pleasant drink option.

Tangierine Cafe: Flavors of the Medina is located at the Morocco Pavilion. You can find it at number 17 on the map below.

La Isla Fresca

Food:

• 🆕Impossible Jamaican Beef Patty – $6.50
• Coconut Tres Leches – $5

Beverages:

• 🆕Wicked Weed Brewing Mango Wowie Hazy IPA with Mango, Asheville, NC – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• Florida Orange Groves Winery Tropical Perception White Sangria, St. Petersburg, FL – $11.50
• Tropical Breeze with Don Q Límon Rum – $11.50

*NEW* Impossible Jamaican Beef Patty – $6.50

with Spicy Papaya Syrup

Rank out of 7: 7

They knocked it out of the park with this. It’s amazing. The Impossible meat has a great texture, excellent spice, and it’s plentiful. The pastry is crisp and the sauce completes the dish with just a touch of sweetness.

Coconut Tres Leches – $5

Vanilla Cake soaked with Oat, Almond, and Coconut Milks with Toasted Coconut

Rank out of 7: 6

The flavor on the front is strong, and the cake is very moist. It’s a little one-note, very coconut-heavy. It’s not overwhelming. They’ve improved this dish, as in past reviews, we did not care for it and gave it the equivalent of a 3.

Tropical Slush – $4.50

Lemonade, Grapefruit and Simple Syrup

Rank out of 7: 5

This is both incredibly tart and very sweet. The drink starts off frozen, which is good for the current Florida heat, but quickly turns completely liquid. This is a solid, refreshing non-alcoholic drink for the spring and summer weather.

Tropical Breeze with Don Q Limón Rum – $11.50

Rank out of 7: 6

You can really taste the rum in this, which isn’t always common. The rum definitely changes the flavor profile of the drink, and cuts the lemonade a lot more than the non-alcoholic version, making the grapefruit taste more prevalent. We prefer this version.

La Isla Fresca is located between the France and Morocco Pavilions. You can find it at number 18 on the map below.

Despite the herbs and flavors, this is one-note. It’s tasty, but that taste is essentially just lemon pound cake.

*NEW* Parmentier de Canard A L’Orange – $7.95

Pulled Duck Confit with Orange Sauce and Garlic-Rosemary Mashed Potatoes

Rank out of 7: 5

This isn’t bad for theme park counter service duck, and the orange flavor comes through in the right amount. Overall, it’s more like a Thanksgiving dinner, and just not something we want to eat in the Florida summer.

Beignet Caramélisé, Fourré Crème Vanille, Glacé au Caramel Fleur de Sel – $6.50

Caramelized Beignet filled with Vanilla Cream and glazed with Caramel Fleur de Sel

Rank out of 7: 5

The pastry is soft and doughy, and the cream inside is rich and sweet. The caramelized sugar adds a nice, sweet finish, making for a pleasant snack that can be shared. This is a good crème-filled doughnut, but if you want a real French pastry, just go into the pavilion for Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie.

Croissant au Fromage de Chèvre, Herbes et ail Rôtie – $6.95

Croissant with Goat Cheese, Herbs and Roasted Garlic

Rank out of 7: 3

This is exactly what it looks like, a croissant with cheese on top. Really, it’s nothing special. Ours tasted like it had been out a bit, and was starting to go stale. We’d label this as “just okay” and recommend purchasing other items from this booth.

La Vie en Rose Frozen Slush – $14.50

Vodka, Grey Goose L’Orange, St. Germain Liqueur, White and Red Cranberry Juices

Rank out of 7: 5

France once again brings an alcoholic slushy to the festival, and this time it’s a very floral and fruity vodka concoction. It actually smells like a rose! We found the St. Germain Liqueur doesn’t overpower the cranberry and orange flavors, which makes for a well-balanced cocktail.

Fleur de Lys is located at the France Pavilion near International Gateway. You can find it at number 19 on the map below.

Northern Bloom

Food:

• Beef Tenderloin Tips – $7.25
• Seared Scallops – $7.75

Beef Tenderloin Tips – $7.25

Mushroom Bordelaise Sauce and Whipped Potatoes with Garden Vegetables

Rank out of 7: 4

Unfortunately, our two pieces of beef were overcooked and chewy, leaving a lot to be desired. The carrots and whipped potatoes were great, but they weren’t enough to save this dish. However, we do believe there’s a lot of potential here if you happen to receive well-cooked meat.

Seared Scallops – $7.75

with French Green Beans, Butter Potatoes, Brown Butter Vinaigrette

Rank out of 7: 6

Disney has scallops down to an art, which is surprising because they can be difficult to cook correctly. These were done perfectly, smooth and buttery, with just a slight bit of crunch from the bacon exterior. The green beans were also well done, and the brown butter vinaigrette tied the whole dish together.

Chocolate Maple Whisky Cake – $4.50

Rank out of 7: 4

A lot is happening here, so we’ll do our best to break it down. To start, the chocolate on top reminds us of a Krispy Kreme donut. Moving on to the cake, it’s incredibly dense and has a caramel flavoring, confusing us as that isn’t an ingredient listed. The cake was also a bit dry, leaving us wishing that ice cream was served as a side. The maple cream on top does a bit to help cut the dryness, but there isn’t enough for it to be effective.

We did end up getting some of the whiskey flavor on the back end, though, which was a positive for us. Overall, this isn’t the best dessert at the festival, but it also isn’t the worst.

Northern Bloom is located at the Canada Pavilion. You can find it at number 22 on the map below.

Trowel & Trellis Hosted by Impossible

Food:

• 🆕Brew Hub Strawberry Heatwave Berliner, Lakeland, FL – $5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.
• 🆕Raspberry and Lemon Herbal Tea with Gin – $12

*NEW* Chocolate Mousse Terrarium – $5.50

with Matcha Crumble and Chocolate Soil

Rank out of 7: 5

Chocolate fans will enjoy this, but it’s nothing special. The chocolate soil gives a nice crunch, but it’s basically a fancy version of pudding dirt cups. Previous versions of this dish have been served, but unlike those, this one is not vegan.

Impossible Farmhouse Meatball – $6

with Lentil Bread, Spinach, Marinated Vegetables and Creamy Herb Aioli

Rank out of 7: 7

There’s a lot of good seasoning in here, and it has a texture close to a meatball. The spice comes through as a slow burn on the back end. The lentil wrap is so good. We’ll have this again.

Soy-Glazed Sticky Ribs – $7

with Green Onions and Peanuts

Rank out of 7: 4

The meat was tender, and the barbecue flavor was very prominent. Our particular pieces didn’t have a ton of meat on them, but it’s difficult for ribs to be consistent. We were, however, a bit let down at the size of them, considering you only receive two.

*NEW* Raspberry and Lemon Herbal Tea (non-alcoholic) – $4.50

Twinings Raspberry & Lemon Herbal Tea and Simply Limeade

Rank out of 7: 5

A lot of the drinks this year were refreshing, but this is one of the better non-alcoholic ones. It’s thirst-quenching enough that we wish there was a larger serving.

*NEW* Raspberry and Lemon Herbal Tea with Gin – $12

Twinings Raspberry & Lemon Herbal Tea, Simply Limeade, and Conniption Kinship Gin

Rank out of 7: 5

This is the alcoholic version of the lemonade above. It’s just as good, with the raspberry and lemon well-balanced.

Trowel & Trellis is located near Port of Entry. You can find it at number 6 on the map below.

The Honey Bee-stro Hosted by National Honey Board

Food:

• Chicken and Waffles – $6.75

• Florida Orange Groves Winery Orange Blossom Honey Wine, St. Petersburg, FL – $6.50
• Honey-Peach Freeze with Blueberry Vodka and Streusel – $13

Chicken and Waffles – $6.75

Crispy Chicken and a Honey Sweet Cornbread Waffle with Whipped Honey Butter and Spicy Honey

Rank out of 7: 2

This reminds us of a hush puppy, except that it’s supposed to be chicken and waffles. Our chicken was very bland and looked grey inside. The honey sauce was great, being both sweet and spicy, but that was the only good part of this dish. We recommend skipping this one.

*NEW* Honey-Glazed Cauliflower – $5

with Honey-Roasted Carrot Puree, Wild Rice Pilaf, Spring Vegetables, Honey-Blistered Grapes, and Sunflower Brittle

Rank out of 7: 7

If you’re looking for something light and fresh, we highly recommend this. The cauliflower is excellently prepared, and the carrot puree is strong on the back end. The whole dish is flavorful and we will be back for more.

Florida Orange Groves Winery Orange Blossom Honey Wine, St. Petersburg, FL – $6.50

Rank out of 7: 2

Envisioning a honey wine, we expected a sweet white wine. What we received was a white wine that had a medicinal quality to the taste. One sip per person around our group was more than enough.

Honey-Peach Freeze with Blueberry Vodka and Streusel – $13

Rank out of 7: 7

If you’ve ever wondered what an alcoholic Pop-Tart tastes like, wonder no longer. This may be the strongest and best cocktail of the festival. The honey and peach pair perfectly.

The Honey Bee-stro is located near Port of Entry. You can find it at number 26 on the map below.

Pineapple Promenade

Food:

• Spicy Hot Dog – $8
• DOLE Whip (plant-based) – $6.50

• Frozen Desert Violet Lemonade (non-alcoholic) – $4.75

• DOLE Whip topped with Sōmrus Mango Cream Liqueur – $12.50
• Florida Orange Groves Winery Sparkling Pineapple Wine, St. Petersburg, FL -$12
• Playalinda Brewing Company Violet Lemonade Ale, Titusville, FL -$5.75 for 6 oz./$9.75 for 12 oz.

Spicy Hot Dog – $8

with Pineapple Chutney and Plantain Chips

Rank out of 7: 6

Perhaps one of our (definitely Tom’s) favorite returning items is the spicy hot dog. You receive a full hot dog for your money, slathered in pineapple chutney and crumbled plantain chips. The hot dog delivers on flavor and spice. Each bite has a pop against the perfectly cooked exterior leading to a wonderfully spicy interior.

The chutney adds a cool pineapple flavor, and the chips add a nice crunch. It’s a filling dish and best shared if you plan on enjoying the rest the festival has to offer.

Frozen Desert Violet Lemonade (non-alcoholic) – $4.75

Rank out of 7: 6

A slush so iconic they had to make Minnie ears to match them. We can proudly say that the admiration is much deserved. The Violet Lemonade slush is sweet, refreshing, and takes a nice picture.

DOLE Whip with Fanta (non-alcoholic) – $6.75

Rank out of 7: 4

Pineapple Fanta fills the bottom of this cup. The pineapple Dole Whip mixed with the soda works very well and surprisingly isn’t overpowering. The only problem you’re going to run into with Flower & Garden is A) the portion of Dole Whip and B) how icy it comes out, to the point of almost being flavorless.

Typically, the version at Magic Kingdom is very light and airy, this comes out stiff and dense. It’s still the only place to get the soft serve in EPCOT, so if you feel the price is worth saving a trip to Polynesian Village or Magic Kingdom, then this is recommended.

DOLE Whip topped with Sōmrus Mango Cream Liqueur – $12.50

Rank out of 7: 4

This was quite refreshing. We felt it tasted a bit too much like Dole Whip, meaning there wasn’t probably a ton of Mango Cream Liqueur mixed into the soft serve, which was disappointing.

Pineapple Promenade is located near Port of Entry. You can find it at number 25 on the map below.

The Land Cart Hosted by AdventHealth

Food:

• 🆕Açai Parfait – $4.75
• 🆕Roasted Red Pepper Hummus – $5
• Strawberry Fruit Bar (plant-based item) – $6

Beverages:

• 🆕Florida Smoothie – $6.25

*NEW* Açai Parfait – $4.75

with Greek Yogurt, Fresh Berries and Granola

Rank out of 7: 4

The açaí balances out the Greek yogurt, but there’s nothing special about this. It’s exactly what you’d expect from an açaí parfait.

*NEW* Roasted Red Pepper Hummus – $5

with Cucumbers, Olives and Multigrain Crackers

Rank out of 7: 4

This is basically a supermarket snack box. The hummus is well-spiced with a smoky aftertaste. The rest is all just standard.

*NEW* Florida Smoothie – $6.25

Pineapple, Orange, and Mango

Rank out of 7: 7

This lives up to its name, tasting like Florida sunshine in a cup. The flavors all work together, and they taste fresh.

The Land Cart is located outside The Land Pavilion. You can find it at number 28 on the map below.

Connections Eatery

Food:

• 🆕Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich – $12.49
• Orange Bird Liege Waffle – $4.19

Beverages:

• 🆕Blood Orange Hibiscus Margarita – $15

*NEW* Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich – $12.49

Southern-Fried Chicken Sandwich with Hot Honey and Pickles on a Brioche Bun

Rank out of 7: 6

The dishes at Connections Eatery are unique because they are full-size as opposed to the tasting sizes at the booths. If you’re looking for something hearty and filling, this is an excellent choice. The chicken isn’t very hot, but it’s thick and tasty. The cabbage is crisp and the pickles are the perfect finishing touch.

Orange Bird Liege Waffle – $4.19

Rank out of 7: 6

The liege waffle is always great, but the presence of the Orange Bird adds a nice springtime touch and ties it in with the festival. (Plus, we can’t resist anything with the Orange Bird on it.)

The sugar and the icing add a balanced sweetness, complemented by the orange flavoring. It’s the perfect amount of citrus — not overpowering, and not too subtle. The Orange Bird medallion is made of chocolate, though easily removable if you choose to save it in the plastic wrap for later. Overall, this is a winner.

NEW* Blood Orange Hibiscus Margarita – $15

Teremana Tequila, with Hibiscus and Blood Orange Syrup and Orange Juice

Rank out of 7: 6

If you’re looking for a margarita, skip Jardin de Fiestas and come straight here. It’s a little on the syrupy side but it’s overall very good.

Connections Eatery is located in World Discovery. You can find it at number 1 on the map below.

The honey jasmine syrup sets this apart from a regular latte. It’s subtle and light but still stands out against the espresso.

Frozen Lemon, Minute Maid Lemonade, Iced Tea, and Orange-Tangerine Syrup garnished with a Glazed Orange Peel (Spirited option available featuring Grey Goose Vodka)

Rank out of 7: 2

We ordered the alcoholic version, but if it had any vodka, it was undetectable. It’s otherwise a fine iced tea but our least favorite of Joffrey’s specialty drinks for the festival.

You can find it at number 21 on the map below.

*NEW*Joffrey’s in the American Adventure Pavilion:

Frozen Lemon, Minute Maid Lemonade, Iced Tea, and Hawaiian Island Syrup garnished with a Glazed Orange Peel (Spirited option available featuring Grey Goose Vodka)

Rank out of 7: 6

The tropical syrup makes this a wild twist on a classic Arnold Palmer. The heavy tea contrasting with the light fruit works well, though it was tart on the front end.

You can find it at number 13 on the map below.

*NEW*Joffrey’s Near Disney Traders:

Iced Berry Chai Latte – $6.49/$14.99 with alcohol

Chai Tea, Blueberry Syrup, and Milk topped with Whipped Cream and Cinnamon (Spirited option available featuring Bailey’s Irish Cream Liqueur)

Rank out of 7: 7

We will be back again and again for this. If you like chai and blueberry, this is a can’t-miss. It’s different enough to be fun without being off-putting and is the perfect spring twist on a typical fall drink.

You can find it at number 7 on the map below.

Mango fans may enjoy this, but none in our party were. The quality of the ingredients was fine; it just didn’t appeal to our group.

Tangerine Soft-Serve – $6.50

Rank out of 7: 6

We absolutely loved this! It’s incredibly refreshing, which is great in the Florida heat. The tangerine and vanilla are both prominent here, while the fruity flavor of the tangerine is fresh and citrusy. This is one we highly recommend!

Lavender Martini – $12

Boyd & Blair Potato Vodka with Lavender and Lemon

Rank out of 7: 6

Poured over ice, this proved to be quite refreshing. The flavors of lemon and lavender came together in a very refreshing drink that we wanted more of after we finished it. The lemon gives it a flavor profile almost like a light lemonade. This is an easy cocktail to drink, making it a winner that we all loved.

The Refreshment Outpost is located between the China and Germany Pavilions. You can find it at number 10 on the map below.

on Crispy Potato Barrels with Plant-Based Ranch and Blue Cheese Crumbles

Rank out of 7: 6

The potato barrels were the right balance of crispy on the outside and soft inside. The biggest surprise is the blue cheese, which easily passes for the real thing. This is another excellent vegan item.

Frozen Mojito with Boyd & Blair Rum – $13

Rank out of 7: 6

Another strong cocktail in contrast to the many weak festival cocktails. It’s easy to drink, though very potent.

Like always, the funnel cake is a huge success. They make great funnel cakes here, so the base was quality. The strawberry toppings are perfectly balanced with the ice cream and whipped topping.

This, however, is excellent. The granulated honey and mascarpone make it a little gritty, but it’s so rich and pairs well with the compote.

The sorbet still isn’t good, but it’s boosted here by the excellent Quirk Strawberry Banana Whip Hard Seltzer.
