Friday Fives ... More to Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival

With all of the changes happening at Epcot, one thing remains the same - the Walt Disney World Resort plays host to a number of seasonal festivals that feature food and drink tastings, live entertainment and overall fun for adults, kids and families. The most popular of Epcot’s festivals is every gastronome and oenophile’s dream come true - the fall Food & Wine Festival. Naturally, the annual event highlights the best of a number of country’s signature cuisine and libations. Admission to the Food & Wine Festival is included with Epcot admission, and guests are allowed to stroll the World Showcase sampling delish bites, paying out of pocket or with Disney dining credits. There’s much more to enjoy than visiting the Food & Wine Festival kiosks. What else you ask? Well, we’re answering on today’s Friday Fives blog post.

Friday Fives - The Best Quick-Service Restaurants at Walt Disney World

Why does it always seem that we’re talking about food on this blog?

Friday Fives - Our Five Favorite Table-Service Restaurants at World Disney World

Last week, we shared a list of our five favorite cocktails at Walt Disney World - because a Disney vacation can mean more than meeting characters, riding roller coasters and finding your stroller among the 500+ that look just like yours! What’s a vacation without a little liquid happiness?

Along those same lines, we at Beyond Imagination Vacations cannot imagine a vacation without enjoying some incredible meals. And because Walt Disney World is the ultimate in family travel, it is easier to partake in fine dining here than at other destinations. Children are welcome at all restaurants, excluding Victoria & Albert’s which only allows children 10 and older. (Our kids have sophisticated palates, but we’re not sure we would want to spend close to $200 on a meal for a seven-year-old!)

On today’s blog, we’re sharing our five favorite table-service restaurants at Walt Disney World Resort. And yes, you can bring your kids (if you want)!
