What’s New at EPCOT: Pretzels, Royalty Merch, and Crispy Fried Shrimp!
Hello to all our DFB friends! It’s a lovely day for a walk around EPCOT, isn’t it?
UK Pavilion at EPCOT
We have found LOADS of new stuff, so let’s dive right in!
EPCOT Food Updates
Block & Hans
We spotted some changes on the menu at Block & Hans. They switched the Angry Orchard Rose Hard Cider ($9.25) on tap to the 3 Daughters Brewing Rose Hard Cider ($11.25).

We also noticed that the Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA was now gone from the menu. The Beer Flight is also gone, although both beers included in the flight are on the menu.

China Festival Booth
The Chengdu Street Fries from 2019’s Festival of the Holidays have made a reappearance, but this time with Crispy Fried Shrimp at the China Booth! We tried them and they were ABSOLUTELY DELISH.

You can pick this delicious dish up for $7.50, which includes those wonderful street fries, topped with their amazing sauce and four crispy shrimp! YUM!

Enoteca Castello
Enoteca Castello at the Italy Pavilion is now serving wine and beer by the glass again! And they’re also serving a yummy Limoncello Spritzer for $11.
Limoncello Spritzer
This drink is VERY pretty and VERY refreshing for hot Florida days!

Sommerfest
Over at the Germany Pavilion, Sommerfest has reopened! The menu is limited, though, with options for pretzels, four beers, and two wines. They’re also only open on weekends.
Sommerfest Menu
We helped ourselves to a wonderfully warm and soft pretzel for $9.39 — our only regret is that it didn’t come with yummy cheese on the side! But, even without it, the pretzel was pretty good on its own.

Chefs de France
Over at the France pavilion, Chefs de France is officially taking reservations for their reopening date on October 8th.
Chefs de France
We can’t wait to chow down on some authentic French cuisine so soon!

Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe
As of today, Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe HAS REOPENED! We noticed that the building was set up yesterday with social distancing markers in preparation of its grand reopening.
Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe
School bread for days, y’all! Yeah, we found our School Bread elsewhere in the park, but it will be nice to get it from the Bakeri once again!

They have a space bar for additional lettering, but at the time, nothing was showing.

Test Track now has a new line queue to help space out guests.
