EPCOT Food and Wine 2019 Booths and Menus

It's fall, which means Food and Wine Festival in EPCOT! 



If you haven't been to Disney's Food and Wine Festival, it is in EPCOT. There are food booths located around EPCOT's Future World and World Showcase. Future World is near the main park entrance. EPCOT typically opens at 9 AM. However, most of the countries in World Showcase do not open until 11 AM. The booths for Food and Wine Festival also open at 11 AM. 



The festival passport and menus use a few helpful abbreviations. GF is gluten/wheat friendly. KA indicates a kid-approved dish; a dish designed with children in mind. V indicates a vegetarian dish. DDP is Disney Dining plan; several foods are DDP eligible for a snack credit (DDPSE).

Here's the list of the foods offered at this year's booths and menus. I focused on the foods because there are so many booths and all the menu items can be overwhelming, but the pictures provide the full menu of each booth. I find it super helpful to plan where I want to go and what I want to eat. There are so many great choices; let's eat!

We also went to the Food and Wine Festival in 2018. Here are are favorites from last year; some of them returned in 2019! If you have a chance to visit Disney World during EPCOT's Food and Wine Fest, I would highly recommend it. It's a great way to try new dishes and flavors from around the world. The small plates are often dishes that are served in different restaurants from around the park, so it's a less expensive way to try dishes. 

I want to hear from you! Have you been to EPCOT's Food and Wine Festival? What were your favorite booths? Comment below or on social media. For more tips, encouragement, and recipes, you can follow me on FacebookPinterestInstagram, and Twitter
