After 7 years of construction, Epcot's reimagining is finally complete with the opening of CommuniCore Hall. This new building and festival area is located in Epcot's World Celebration, nestled into the Celebration Gardens and right in front of World Nature. It includes new Meet & Greet space, indoor Epcot Festival flex space, a new Encanto stage show and a brand new food booth called Festival Favorites.
Whenever there's new food at Epcot we feel inclined to try it out. We assume that this new Festival Favorites Quick Service dining window will have a menu that rotates throughout the seasons. It's currently offering arepas, a Coconut Passionfruit Smoothie and a Coconut Tres Leches Cake that complement the adjacent Encanto stage show.
This video provides our complete experience trying out these new items and exploring this new area. We end the video by highlighting one of our dessert hidden gems at Epcot. See our thoughts, favorite eats and whether we think CommuniCore Hall was worth the 7 year wait.

The black beans are mixed with panko and mung bean was used to bind it. Such an inventive burger.

lol I’m a cole slaw snob as is my daughter. And when you showed that slaw, I was like “That’s not it”. 😂😂

@ThemeParkFoodies Ай бұрын

hahahhah I'm glad to know there are other slaw snobs out there!

Happy to finally see all the walls down in Epcot. New space remind me of college l. you think after being under construction for so long, they could’ve done something better.

It's seriously disappointing. Especially the lack of shade in front of the stage and the cheap tables. We're happy to have another food window though 🙂.

Hi Sam and Jay! Excellent food review as always 👌🏻 The vegan coconut tres leches, the black bean burger and the chocolate peanut butter Whoopie Pie look delicious 😋 They could bring the empanadas instead of having two kind of arepas 🫓 in the Festival Favorite booth

@ThemeParkFoodies Ай бұрын

Agreed! Empanadas > Arepas, at least at Epcot. The cake, whopper pie and burgers were definitely the winners here. Thank you 🙂, we really appreciate it.

@cherrytreelane4264 Ай бұрын

That whoopie pie looks amazing, we love Reese's. I'm happy to see the slaw battle ongoing 😊 Great vlog, and I will appreciate the hall for a/c alone! ❤

We love that whoopie pie! I don’t think the slaw quest will ever be over for Jay 😂 Thanks for watching and AC is always a win 🥇

I appreciate your honesty on communicore hall. Hopefully come festival time it changes. Great video!

Thank you! Interested to see how it changes throughout the year- can only go up from here 😂

Being honest is so helpful, thanks for sharing.

We honestly do our best to be positive and like making positive content but this wasn't it unfortunately 😕.

Hi TPF's so happy to see your video today, as always. I am a lover of slaw as well. I believe there was a good one at Regal Eagle to pair with my favorite vegetarian option at Epcot, the Pulled BBQ Jackfruit sandwich. This one looks pretty good. Thanks so much for trying the bean burger. I eat fish and poultry, but tend to gravitate to vegetarian options. The woopie pie goes to the list of things to try. Stay cool and keep hydrated! Thanks for the infusion of Disney magic ❤

@ThemeParkFoodies Ай бұрын

Oh man, we love Regal Eagle. Need to get back there to try that slaw. This bean burger was solid. I wouldn't say it blew me away but it's a good option and I enjoyed it. The whoopie pie is a must! Although, we are disappointed they shrunk it down since we last had it. Definitely need to stay hydrated in this heat 😆. Of course, and thank you for all your support 🙂.

I think everyone is disappointed with Communicore Hall, I have yet to see a positive review outside of nice A/C 😬😬 It is surprising that’s all it is considering how long it was under construction😅 but I guess there is hope that during festivals and special occasions it will better!

@ThemeParkFoodies Ай бұрын

All the disappointment is bringing ppl together 😂 Hoping to see some changes as time goes on !

Thank you so much for thi Review I always liked old school Epcot , and I feel for you with the heat here in jersey is a hundred degrees i'm actually not too far from laguardia I'm not complaining about the heat I get to wear my new dress when we go for jersey dolewhips BTW looks like they can put more tables in there or maybe ❤ not?

@ThemeParkFoodies Ай бұрын

Laguardia airport got fancy! Dole whips & a new dress sounds like my kind of day 😊 There looks like they could put a few more tables in there. Thank you for watching Alessandra ❤️

I am disappointed to hear that the arepas are anything less than amazing. Carnival Cruise lines do a quick serve arepa that is delicious. Disney should totally be able to produce and even better arepa than those. The desserts looked amazing, though.

@ThemeParkFoodies Ай бұрын

The desserts were the stars here. The arepas were basic and honestly nothing note worthy. If we ever end up on a Carnival Cruise we'll have to try the arepas! Despite not being that impressed, we're still happy to have this food window. Hopefully they'll change it up to some with some items that are actual festival favorites though.
