NEW! Festival Favorites – 2024 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival

Located near the newly opened CommuniCore Hall, the Festival Favorites booth is making its debut at Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival!

Festival Favorites 2024 Menu

This year’s menu is slightly questionable if we’re really being honest, here. A combination of European delicacy, southern traditions, and a pie that actually looks delicious.

Whether you’re craving something hearty, something cheesy, or a treat to satisfy your sweet tooth. Festival Favorites has options.

Kielbasa and Potato Pierogies

This dish looks like comfort food. Blending Eastern European flavors like savory Kielbasa sausage and tender potato pierogies. Expect this to be a hearty and satisfying option that’s sure to warm your soul. We’re legitimately looking forward to this dish, it just seems like a weird option for a booth called “Festival Favorites.

BBQ Pork Rinds served with Pimento Cheese

I’m not going to lie – this is not something that I’m looking forward to. It sounds like a, unique, take on nachos with a southern BBQ twist.

But that doesn’t mean you won’t like it. I am definitely not the target market for this, so choose your own adventure.

Key Lime Tart

The Key Lime Tart at Festival Favorites looks like a must-try. Key Lime Pie is generally the perfect balance of sweet and tart. With a creamy key lime filling nestled in a buttery crust. It’s a refreshing and zesty way to cleanse your palate between booths!

Frozen S’mores:

Satisfy your sweet tooth with the Frozen S’mores milkshake, a chocolatey, marshmallow-infused treat, that’s sure to delight both kids and adults. Topped with mini marshmallows and a graham cracker, this drink is a playful twist on the classic campfire dessert. It’s rich, indulgent, and perfectly chilled for a hot day at the festival. I cannot wait!

Irish Milk Shake

The Irish Milk Shake is a boozy blend of Guinness Stout, Baileys Irish Cream, and vanilla ice cream. Offering a creamy, slightly bitter, and sweet experience in every sip. This decadent treat is a must-try for those who enjoy a rich and luxurious dessert in a glass. Plus there’s booze and what’s a day in Epcot without a cocktail?

Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen

The Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen is a refreshing beer that combines the light, fruity notes of hefeweizen with the tangy sweetness of grapefruit. This drink is perfect for those who prefer a lighter, more refreshing option that pairs well with the rich, savory dishes at the booth.

However, it’s also available year round throughout Epcot and the Disney World resort as a whole. I recently picked one up at All Star Sports, so not at the top of our festival list.

SIPS Cab Franc Strawberry

Parish Brewing Co. is bringing something unique with their SIPS Cab Franc Strawberry brew. This drink is expected to have a fruity, slightly tart profile with a hint of Cabernet Franc’s rich flavors. It’s likely to be a refreshing and slightly complex choice, ideal for pairing with both savory and sweet dishes.

Beach Blonde Ale

This light and crisp ale from 3 Daughters Brewing is perfect for a warm day at the festival. The Beach Blonde Ale offers a smooth, easy-drinking experience with subtle malt sweetness and a clean finish. It’s a versatile beer that pairs well with a variety of dishes, making it a great choice for festival-goers.

Goldschmidt ‘Katherine’ Cabernet Sauvignon

Goldschmidt’s ‘Katherine’ Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma is expected to deliver rich, full-bodied flavors with notes of dark berries, plum, and a hint of oak. This wine is perfect for those who enjoy bold, complex flavors, and it pairs beautifully with the heartier dishes like the Kielbasa and Pierogies.

Martin Ray Chardonnay

The Martin Ray Chardonnay is a crisp, balanced wine with notes of green apple, citrus, and a hint of oak. Sourced from Sonoma Coast, it offers a refreshing contrast to the savory and sweet dishes on the menu. This Chardonnay is likely to be a favorite for those who prefer a lighter, yet flavorful wine option.
