It’s no secret that EPCOT has a lot of amazing places to eat.
Between the rotating festival booths and authentic Table Service options, it seems like there’s always something new to try. But if you’re on the hunt for a quick and easy meal, there are a few dishes you should know about — and you probably don’t even know they exist!
We’re sharing our favorite hidden gems for an in-and-out meal at EPCOT.
Joy of Tea
While Joy of Tea in the China Pavilion specializes in egg rolls and hot and iced tea, we’re recommending a lesser-known snack: the Salt and Pepper Popcorn Chicken! While this isn’t officially on the menu (it’s currently listed as a “daily special”), it makes the top of our list for a convenient and tasty meal.
Although this is a simple dish (think elevated chicken nuggets), we’re big fans. It’s simple and perfectly seasoned! This popcorn chicken will cost you $7.95.

Yorkshire County Fish Shop
In the United Kingdom Pavilion, we’re recommending a classic World Showcase snack: the Fish and Chips from Yorkshire County Fish Shop!
This dish is flaky, crispy, and totally tasty. If you’re in the mood to munch, give it a try! At $11.49, this is a great go-to meal.

La Cantina de San Angel
Our next stop around the World is La Cantina de San Angel! The Quick Service neighbor to the Mexico Pavilion’s La Hacienda de San Angel, La Cantina de San Angel has great grab-and-go meals inspired by traditional Mexican fare.
One of our favorites on the menu? The Empanadas con Queso! For $13.50, you’ll get fried flour tortillas filled with cheese, served with Mexican slaw. And if you’re not in the mood for empanadas, you really can’t go wrong here. They’ve also got great nachos and tacos!

Sommerfest
Sommerfest is a small Quick Service spot tucked away in the back of the Germany Pavilion. Stop here for bratwurst with sauerkraut on a freshly baked roll! You’ll get house-made paprika chips, too.
We’re big fans of the bratwurst here, and the portion is large enough that it could really fill you up! At $10.29, it’s well-priced for a meal, too.

Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie
Make sure to stop by the France Pavilion if you’re looking for an easy meal! Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie is a traditional French bakery that serves pastries, sandwiches, and coffee — and even champagne!
Just about anything inside would make for a great quick meal. We love the Macaron Ice Cream Sandwiches and the Baguette and Cheese Plate in particular. If you’re looking for something a bit larger, they offer ham, chicken, and turkey sandwiches, too!

Tangierine Cafe
Although Tangierine Cafe is currently closed, we’ve got to put it on this list due to its popularity as a quick — and tasty! — spot for a meal. You can get a Chicken or Lamb Platter for $15.95 (or combine them both for $16.95!) with a side of hummus, tabouleh, and Tangierine Couscous Salad with fresh Moroccan bread.
For a lighter meal, there are sides of hummus, French fries, and the Tangierine couscous salad. If you’re looking for a slightly more adventurous meal, this food keeps us coming back for more! We’re crossing our fingers the restaurant will be back open soon.
