food IS a theme park
EPCOT is home to many kinds of beautiful things from all over the world.
EPCOT’s France Pavilion
You can eat snacks from all around the world or even drink around the world if you desire. What’s more beautiful than a glass of bubbly from the France pavilion, right? Each World Showcase pavilion also has special merchandise from the country it represents. Did you know that there are genuine designer pieces hiding in the France Pavilion?
With SO many food choices in EPCOT, it can be hard to figure out where to stop for lunch.
EPCOT
The World Showcase is full of restaurants with globally-inspired cuisine, and with the park’s major transformation, we’ve even got new dining locations to enjoy. If there is a festival going on (and there often is), there are even more choices to decide between. So, we hit up every place we can to bring you reviews to make your decision process a little easier. Today, let’s take a look at one of the quick service options in the France pavilion: Crêpes À Emporter.
Who’s ready for some EPCOT news?
EPCOT
Disney finally released the menus for the Food and Wine Festival, and we just learned about some new food booths we can expect to see at the festival. But what if we told you we spotted a whole new food-inspired merchandise collection in World Showcase?
Okay we’re going to let you in on a little secret here — if you want some of the best food in EPCOT, you absolutely CANNOT skip the France Pavilion.
France Pavilion
We’re big fans of the quick service restaurant there, Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie with its delicious pastries and baked goods, and if you’re craving ice cream, there’s no better spot in the park than L’Artisan des Glaces. We recently had a pretty spectacular meal at Chefs de France as well, and Monsieur Paul is a great choice for high-end eats. But now, we’re taking you along to another restaurant in the pavilion — one you’ll find all the way in the back!
Did you know that you can find Disney bags in all shapes and sizes?
Mickey “The Band Concert” Loungefly Bag
We’ve seen Loungefly bags, Dooney & Bourke bags, and many, many others. And we wanted to remind you of some of the “tastiest” looking bags that you can find right now in Disney World.
Want to visit EPCOT with shorter lines and smaller crowds? Extended Evening Hours might be a great option for you, but you’ll want to be CAREFUL.
EPCOT
This special perk lets guests at Disney World Deluxe Hotels and Deluxe Villas (as well as a few other qualifying spots) stay LATE in select parks (usually Magic Kingdom or EPCOT) on certain nights after the regular park guests have left for the day. During those bonus hours, certain rides stay open, giving you the chance to hop on popular attractions like Frozen Ever After or Seven Dwarfs Mine Train with much shorter waits. But there is a big complication you’ll want to be aware of before going to these events.
Believe it or not, you can get free things in Disney World.
Plume et Palette in the France Pavilion in EPCOT
For example, you can get free “I’m Celebrating” buttons for your birthday, anniversary, and other special occasions, as well as free “First Visit” buttons. You can also get FREE water at many Disney World quick-service locations. Even Disney World transportation is free. You can also occasionally get free upgrades, and we’re going to tell you about one such free upgrade that makes for a VERY unique souvenir!
Picture it: The perfect moment — your ENGAGEMENT! — in the perfect place: Walt Disney World! It’s that once-in-a lifetime moment that begins your story with your significant other that ends with your “Happily Ever After.”
“Will You Marry Me?

We’d been walking around EPCOT today, reporting as usual, when the news broke that Argentina had won the 2022 World Cup. Since the park is home to World Showcase with cultural representatives from all the countries, we figured we’d see how the pavilions were reacting to the news!
Have you ever gotten drinks around the world in EPCOT?
World Showcase
There are lots of intriguing drinks you can find all over EPCOT’s World Showcase pavilions, and we do our best to try them all to tell you which are worth your hard-earned cash. We headed over to the France pavilion to give an updated review of a frozen citrusy drink, so buckle up and get ready for LOTS of orange!
