Disney4me Posted September 13 Report Share Posted September 13 If you’ve ever been to EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival, you know that eating your way around the world is basically a rite of passage! EPCOT Food & Wine Festival I mean, truly, all the food booths have something delicious to offer, but there has been one glaring issue that keeps hindering the experience. We haven’t seen Disney fix it yet, so that means we’ve gotta talk about it! As we were saying, the food has been great at EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival, but there’s been this glaring and nagging issue that Disney just hasn’t fixed and it’s threatening to ruin our collective experiences. Disney, if you’re listening, “Where are all the tables??” EPCOT Food & Wine Festival We noticed early on Day 1 of this year’s festival that it was clear there was a serious lack of places to actually sit and enjoy your food. Many of us were immediately wondering how we were supposed to fully savor our festival treats when we’ve got to awkwardly balance our plates on trash cans? And if the trash cans are already taken, we’re left to stand in some random corner all while juggling a drink, food, and trying not to drop anything? (Raise your hand if you can relate.) Strawberry Basil Cocktail: Beefeater Pink Strawberry Gin, St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur, Seagram’s Ginger Ale, with strawberry and basil syrups Now, fast forward 15 days into the festival and guess what? At this point, Disney still hasn’t done a thing about it. No new tables have magically appeared, and we’re still doing a balancing act to eat at one of the most popular festivals of the year. Dark Chocolate Fondue with berries, pound cake, and meringues To be fair, there are a few scattered standing tables here and there, but finding one open feels like winning the lottery. It’s pretty frustrating, especially when you’re just trying to relax between bites and enjoy the park’s vibes. Cheddar Cheese and Bacon Soup served with a pretzel roll Now, don’t get me wrong. I love EPCOT, and the Food & Wine Festival is an absolute must for any Disney foodie, but you’d think after all these years of hosting this massive event, Disney would get the memo that people actually want to sit (or at least have a decent table) while enjoying their eats. The demand for tables is painfully clear. All you need to do is just take a look at the crowds trying to claim a spot. Filet Mignon with mushrooms, Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs mashed potatoes, and Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs butter So, here we are, two weeks in, still balancing gourmet snacks on garbage cans like it’s a normal thing. Disney, we love you, but this seems like a fixable problem. EPCOT Food & Wine Festival In the meantime, you can check out our festival video right here!
