8 Snacks You’ll Regret Not Trying at the 2024 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival

Who’s ready for the 2024 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival? That isn’t a rhetorical question — share your excitement loudly and proudly! There’s a LOT to look forward to this year, like new and returning treats, live music, and more.

In fact, we’ve put together a list of some of the best new and returning treats you simply MUST try this year! Get out your pens and papers, people. It’s time to take NOTES!

Now, like we said, there are a LOT of new and returning snacks this year.

FULL MENUS for the 2024 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival

It can be hard to decide what to get! That’s why we made a handy list of both savory snacks and fun new desserts that are worth trying this year. Let’s dig in!

Macatizers

Up first is one of the NEW EPCOT Food and Wine Festival booths that we’re SO excited to visit. As you may have guessed by the name, this booth will serve all kinds of mac and cheese dishes!

You will find this new Festival food location at CommuniCore Hall, and we expect it to be a POPULAR destination. Now, allll the menu items here sound AMAZING, but if you have to pick one dish to try, we’re recommending the Cheesesteak Macaroni and Cheese with shaved beef, peppers and onions, and breadcrumbs. Stay tuned for our review!

The Fry Basket

Time to move on to a location that’s near and dear to our hearts: The Fry Basket. You’ll find this booth located near the Refreshment Station, and if you see a line full of fry fanatics, you’ll know you’re in the right place.

So, what do we recommend here? You’ve got to try the Fry Flight! It’s a Food and Wine classic at this point, and it’s a great sharable snack with three kinds of warm, salty fries. Both the garlic-cilantro aïoli and the smoked aïoli really make this extra special, so make sure to dip those fries in the accompanying sauce!

Brew-Wing Lab

Your next stop is just a short walk over to The Odyssey! This year, the Brew-Wing Lab is serving up a mixture of new and returning treats, and we simply couldn’t pick just one menu item to talk about here, so we’re giving you TWO options.

OK, so last year, the Pickle Milk Shake went VIRAL online. People couldn’t stop talking about it, and honestly, we can’t blame ’em. But if milky pickle drinks aren’t your thing, we’re also excited to dig into those Peanut Butter and Jelly Sticky Wings. Give them a chance! 

Mexico

Now, let’s head into the World Showcase. Our first stop? It’s a no-brainer! The Mexico booth rarely lets us down.

The Mexico menu is all new this year, but we’re excited to try the Tostada de Camarones, which is tempura battered shrimp atop a fried corn tortilla with guacamole, cabbage, chipotle aïoli, diced mango, and chile-lime powder.  Last year’s Tostada de Carnitas were AMAZING, so we have high hopes for this guy. Look out for our review!

Refreshment Outpost

OK, we’ll be honest. When we saw this on the menu at Refreshment Outpost, we FREAKED out.

Now, the menu technically refers to these as a new Chocolate Amarula Mousse with white chocolate, but we know that description anywhere. Those are Zebra Domes, which you can typically find at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. If you’ve never tried this amaziiiiing dessert, this is your chance!

The Alps

Now, we’re making our way over to The Alps for this classic Food and Wine snack. It’s an oldie but a goodie, people.

Does the Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with alpine ham, baby potatoes, cornichons, and a baguette win the award for prettiest snack in EPCOT? No. But the taste makes up for it — trust us! That warm, fresh cheese is HEAVENLY, and you can’t go wrong with bread and cheese, right?

Flavors of America

The American Adventure Pavilion has a new menu item we’re VERY interested in trying.

This year, the booth is serving a new freshly baked Chocolate Pudding Cake with bourbon caramel. Do we need to say anything else? DUH! It’s warm chocolate pudding cake and caramel. That description speaks for itself. Do yourself a favor and ORDER THIS!

Canada

Finally, let’s round out our list with an old favorite. If you know, you know.

The Cheddar Cheese and Bacon Soup served with a pretzel roll is actually a Le Cellier menu item, too, but the soup takes a field trip to the Canada booth for the Food and Wine Festival. If you like cheese (and who DOESN’T like cheese), this is a must-buy. It’s warm, creamy, and rich. We’re getting hungry just thinking about it!

Phew! That concludes our tour around EPCOT for all the must-try items this year. Don’t forget — we’ll be giving you a FULL REVIEW of EVERYTHING there is to see and do at the Festival, so keep your eyes out for more details!

In the meantime, we’re always on the lookout for the latest Disney news, so stay tuned for more.
