EPCOT stands for Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, and it’s a pretty amazing place to visit today. Many families I know don’t even make it to Epcot when they’re visiting Walt Disney World, and that makes me sad because I think it’s an amazing park with lots of opportunities for both fun and education for all ages.
Epcot is divided into two parts: Future World, which is home to attractions like Test Track, The Seas with Nemo and Soarin’, and the World Showcase, which features 11 different countries. There’s a lot to see and do, but you can’t do it without fueling up first, so I’m sharing my both my favorite breakfast items in Epcot.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. So where to go? Check out this video to see three different quick breakfast spots that have the best breakfast items in Epcot. (Please note: this is for quick service breakfasts. If you have time, breakfast at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall with the princess is lovely, and delicious. It’s possible that they brought us an entire extra tray of delicious bacon when we were there in January, thus earning our undying gratitude and appreciation.)
If I had to pick a favorite quick and easy location for breakfast, I’d say Les Halles Bounlangerie-Patisserie in France. Les Halles in the France Pavilion opens before the rest of the World Showcase opens. Just tell the staff that you want to go have breakfast there and they’ll let you into the World Showcase. Not everyone knows that it’s open, and not many people head there first thing, so it’s not very crowded, as you saw in the video. It’s a chance to really take in the beauty of the area and enjoy a lovely start to the day.
I’m a sucker for a fabulous croissant and a pain au chocolate, while perhaps not intended as a breakfast food, is a perfect way to start a vacation day in my book. I also love that they have some items with more protein, like Croissant Jambon Fromage (ham and cheese croissant) and quiche.
The French pavilion is also a very convenient breakfast option if you are using the back entrance to Epcot if you are staying at the Beach Club, Yacht Club and Boardwalk resorts. France also has some pretty fantastic coffee if you need the caffeine. (Thought there is also a Starbucks in Future World if you can’t make it that far.)
I really wish I was going during Food and Wine Festival time so I could check out the Parisian Breakfast at Chefs de France. The Disney website says of the breakfast buffet option, “Bubble away with mimosa, tuck into just-baked baguettes, rich brioches and golden croissants.” Sounds amazing, doesn’t it? I wish they would offer it year-round and not just during Food and Wine.
Of course, if a croissant doughnut at Port Refreshment is more your style, I’m not about to judge. And if you want to hit Sunshine Seasons to stay close to the rides in Future World, you can find the menu, with items like croissant berry pudding, french toast and a breakfast panini, here.
