Epcot’s Flower and Garden Festival is right around the corner and we are ready for it.
We’ve already seen some topiaries go up, full menus have been released for the festival, and there’s even a “NEW” booth for us to check out. We spotted this booth on one of our last trips to EPCOT and are here to tell you everything we know about it so far — come take a look!
This new booth, BRUNCHCOT, is located near Test Track and is taking the place of last year’s Sunshine Griddle — our Best of the Fest booth from 2022. Don’t fret, though — even though BRUNCHCOT is a new booth, a LOT of the menu items look very familiar. Let’s take a look at what food they’ll be offering.
For food options, we’ll be getting three returning favorites and just one new item: Lox Benedict on Everything Focaccia.
This is made with everything-spiced cream cheese, shallots, crispy capers, and hollandaise.
Returning this year is the Avocado Toast with marinated toybox tomatoes on toasted ciabatta…
…as well as one of our favorites: the Shrimp and Grits.
This is made with blackened shrimp and cheddar cheese grits with brown gravy and sweet corn salsa, and we loved it last year.
If you’re looking for something sweet, you can’t miss the Fried Cinnamon Roll Bites with cream cheese frosting and candied bacon, which is also returning from last year.
For drinks, this booth is bringing back two options from last year’s Sunshine Griddle and is also getting a NEW cocktail. In true brunch fashion, you can now get a Peach Bellini with your snacks. If you prefer a little caffeine in your brunch cocktail, Joffrey’s Coffee Cold Brew Cocktail is returning this year.
It’s made with milk, Kahlúa Rum and Coffee Liqueur, and vanilla vodka. When we’ve tried this in the past, it was pretty strong on the alcohol, so keep that in mind when you order! If you’re looking for a non-alcoholic option, you can try the returning Froot Loops Shake.
We thought this tasty beverage was super fruity and a perfect kid-friendly drink.
While this booth has quite a few options that we’ve seen before, we are looking forward to trying the new items. But these aren’t the only exciting changes we’re getting at this year’s festival — Florida Fresh, a booth that was missing last year, is back with some new food! At this booth, we are getting the new Blackened Fish Slider with roasted tomatoes, watercress, and citrus remoulade on brioche, as well as a Florida Strawberry Shortcake
Connections Café & Eatery will also be participating in the Flower & Garden Festival for the first time this year with a new Orange Bird Liege Waffle.
Over by the Land Pavilion, the Land Cart will also be participating with a new snack, and at Sunshine Seasons we’ll be getting a new Strawberry-mango Slushy.
We’ll be at EPCOT on opening day reviewing all that the festival has to offer — so stay tuned to DFB for more!
