If you’re looking for a nice frozen treat while you tour EPCOT, stop by Kabuki Cafe for the famous (and fan-favorite) Kakigōri — refreshing shaved ice topped with fruit syrup (and sweetened condensed milk, if you like!).

Important Info:
- One of the most interesting items on the menu is Frozen Kirin Beer. While the beer underneath is completely liquid, the head on the glass is essentially super aerated and chilled. This protective foam works as a mini-refrigerator, keeping the liquid beer beneath colder for longer. You can read more here!

Stop by Kabuki Cafe if…
You’re looking for a unique, frozen treat. If you’re looking for a nice frozen treat while you tour EPCOT, stop by Kabuki Cafe for the famous Kakigōri — refreshing shaved ice topped with fruit syrup (and sweetened condensed milk, if you like!).
You want a dessert that isn’t dairy or carb-heavy. A LOT of desserts at EPCOT are either super sweet, dairy-forward, or carb-heavy. The Kakigōri here is light and refreshing, and while you can opt for sweetened condensed milk, we find it just as tasty without it.
You’re craving sushi but don’t want to make a table service reservation, Kabuki Cafe fits that bill. Keep in mind that you won’t be getting mind-blowing, exquisite sushi here, but for simple rolls like a California Roll, Spicy Roll, or Vegetable Roll, it’ll scratch the itch.
Skip this spot if…
You’re in the mood for a more substantial dessert. While we love the shaved ice here, it’s just that — shaved ice. It’s definitely shareable, but if you’re looking for something more dairy-forward or carb-heavy like cookies or cake, you won’t find it here.
You’re looking for something savory but aren’t a sushi fan. The only savory item on the menu here is sushi, so if you’re not a fan, consider stopping by Katsura Grill further into the Japan Pavilion for things like udon noodles, curry, and teriyaki.
You want to eat somewhere with designated seating. You can typically find some high-top tables near Kabuki Cafe — especially during festivals, but there’s no dedicated seating area for this spot. Consider using the outdoor seating for Katsura Grill in the gorgeous Japanese gardens instead!
