Follow us to a magical land, full of delicious cuisines to sample and exciting entertainment to take in. It’s closer than you might think!

The 2023 EPCOT Festival of the Arts has kicked off and we’re bringing you the good, the bad, and the ugly. From full menus for ALL of the Festival booths to a complete list of the concerts you’ll be able to catch, we’ve got you covered! Now, it’s time to journey over to the Pop Eats booth for some grub! Let’s find out if this booth is worth a visit this year.

Menu

Pop Eats is located near Port of Entry and is home to dishes inspired by pop artist legends like Andy Warhol, and we’ve really enjoyed almost everything we’ve eaten here in the past. This year, there’s a NEW dish on the menu and we can’t wait to try it.

Well, what’s the hold up?! Let’s get to the main event.

A fan-favorite booth is back this year at Festival of the Arts and we're popping with excitement 😜

Eats

NEW to the Pop Eats booth this year is the tomato soup with pimento cheese, bacon, and fried green tomato grilled cheese for $6.50. We’ve had a few different grilled cheese varieties at this booth in the past, but this one sounds out of this world.

We LOVED this grilled cheese! It had a great kick to it thanks to the pimento, and all the ingredients blend so well together. It’s essential to dip it into the delicious tomato soup though, so you can’t skip that step!

The regular Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese is one of the booth’s most popular dishes, with the soup in a Warhol-inspired can and a delicious little grilled cheese on the side.

Both were delicious, classic, and savory, so if you’re looking for a good comfort meal, this is it. This one is available for $5.75.

The Almond Frangipane Cake is returning, and it’s layered with Raspberry Jam and Belgian Chocolate. This cake is available for $4.75, and is very reminiscent of Mondrian’s Composition with Red, Blue, and Yellow. 

This cake was VERY dense and tasted very strongly of almonds, so if you love almonds, this is for you!

Now that we’ve got some snacks in our stomachs, let’s see what Pop Eats is serving to drink!

Drinks

You can grab the Brooklyn Brewery Pulp Art Hazy IPA here for $5.50/$9.50 for a 6 or 12 ounce pour, and the Bleu Spectrum is also available here for $10.50. This is a Blanc de Bleu Cuveé Mousseux with boba pearls.

This is quite a bitter drink, and while the boba adds texture, they don’t add any additional flavors. It’s very Instagrammable and very interesting in the texture department, but we wouldn’t get this again.

Disney does love a blue cocktail.

OVERALL

The Pop Eats booth remains a favorite of ours again this year. The grilled cheeses and soups are strong options, especially when it can be chilly in the parks, and we wholeheartedly recommend this booth (except for the Bleu Spectrum, we’ll pass on that).
