I'll Admit It. This EPCOT Pavilion Update Would Change My Life.

Tucked inside the Morocco Pavilion at EPCOT, Restaurant Marrakesh has long been a hidden gem that has been closed for years, and we have the perfect idea to revitalize it.

Morocco Pavilion in EPCOT

Since the closing of Disney World in 2020, this once vibrant dining spot has remained largely closed, only occasionally reopening as overflow seating during festivals like the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival or as a lounge space for Annual Passholders. And while we’ve appreciated having access to the space in any capacity, we can’t help but feel like it’s time for something more permanent. and honestly, something transformative.

We recently stepped aboard the Disney Adventure, Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship sailing out of Singapore, and while we expected plenty of innovation, we were NOT prepared for the coffee experience that would completely change our standards forever. Located on Deck 7 near TWG Tea, Bacha Coffee immediately stood out. This historic brand, which dates back to 1910 and originated in Marrakech, felt like a perfect thematic match for EPCOT’s Morocco Pavilion, as if it was meant to be there all along.

Bacha Coffee

The coffee shop on the Adventure is stunning, with design elements inspired by Aladdin — think rich colors, intricate details, and an overall sense of opulence. (Sounding familiar to Restaurant Marrakesh?) But what stood out to us was the experience. What started as a quick stop for a to-go coffee quickly turned into something we’ll be talking about for a long time. We were invited to sit at the bar, and suddenly, we weren’t just grabbing caffeine, but instead, we were part of a full-on, elevated tasting experience.

Every detail felt intentional. Silver coasters, ornate spoons, glass straws, and engraved cups. The menu alone was overwhelming in the best way, with TWO full books of options. Thankfully, the Cast Members were incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through the selection process based on our flavor preferences. We ended up trying both a hot and an iced option. The hot coffee arrived in a stunning gooseneck gold kettle, while the iced version was paired with Chantilly cream and liquid syrup on the side. It was indulgent, luxurious, and completely unforgettable.

Hot Coffee

Yes, the prices were higher than your average cup of coffee (almost double), but for the quality and the experience? We’d do it again in a heartbeat.

Which brings us back to EPCOT. With Bacha Coffee’s deep roots in Marrakech, its immersive theming, and its truly unique offering, we can’t think of a better fit for the currently underutilized Restaurant Marrakesh space. Instead of leaving this beautiful pavilion corner in limbo, why not bring in an experience that feels both authentic and excitingly new? It would elevate the Morocco Pavilion in a whole new way and give guests a reason to linger, explore, and sip something extraordinary.

Our to-go order at Bacha

At the end of the day, we’re dreaming big, but this is one update that would truly change our EPCOT day. Restaurant Marrakesh deserves some new life, and Bacha Coffee feels like the perfect answer. Stay tuned to DFB for Disney dining news, reviews, and tips you need for your next trip.
