The Garden House sake kiosk at the Japan Pavilion in EPCOT has reopened after a nearly six month closure. Construction walls came down this week, revealing the refurbished building. The kiosk reopened at noon on December 19, debuting an updated menu.
Refurbished Garden House
The base building remained through the refurbishment, but the windows and doors were reconfigured. As such, the exterior stonework and paneling were changed slightly.
The front doors were replaced by windows. Though difficult to see in pictures, these feature cherry blossom designs behind them.
Windows on the sides became doors, through which guests walk to pick up their order inside. They order outside at a side window.
Above the cash registers is a shelf displaying the different beers and cocktails available at the kiosk.
