    January 2nd way to start the year. Karen

    There's so many different food choices here Starbucks is in Maine and here then on the other side you have pizza and you have hotdog you have hamburgers and you have french fries and you have truffle frys and you have coffee and you have tea. Well you have Starbucks, so you know the basis of that is the different flavor of coffees and things like that. The pizza is an excellent choice. You got two slices for $11. You can't really beat that anywhere. The weather is beautiful here so there are a lot of people out from all over the world. We're just gonna take a stroll around and see what we're gonna see I'm not gonna get on any rides. The place is very very clean. The ambience is very nice and soothing and calm And the food. The pizza was good. No complaints.

    Best way to describe Connections Cafe would be, busy, quick, air conditioned, and relaxing. Any day at a theme park can be stressful, but Connections Cafe is a great place to stop to eat, sit for a while to recover, charge your phone, and get some coffee as well. As with a growing number of quick service eateries, there is mobile ordering at this one, although if you prefer to order in person they always have plenty of lines open for that too. Sometimes the app will say it will be several minutes before the food is ready, but we've rarely had to wait long. Here there is plenty of seating, the air conditioning is fantastic on hot days, and there are quite a few areas to plug in to charge your phone or devices, in regular wall outlets, USB ports, and on a few of the high top tables there is wireless charging as well. Sometimes it can get quite loud and somewhat chaotic with families that are a little on the hangry side, but the cast members are always so patient, and quick to clean up messes, spills, or help with any questions you might have. For the poor souls addicted to Starbucks, you can get your fill in there as well, with even more seating on that side of the building.

    French Bistro Burger

    3.5 stars It is a pretty standard cafe that is connected to Starbucks. It's very convenient since it's close to the entry/exit. Serves classic American fare - burgers, pizza, salad. Nothing adventurous, just simple foods. For dinner, I got the French bistro burger w/ fries and my mom decided on a grilled chicken bao (w/ 2 sides) from the kids' menu. Bistro burger was good even though the patty was a little dry. The caramelized onions was the star of the dish. French fries were typical. Least favorite was grilled chicken bao. It did NOT look appetizing at all and mom reported the dryness of the chicken and the bao. The good: facility and tables was pretty clean because there were plenty of employees. Food is quick to come out. The bad: food is subpar at best. Sodas are $4!

    Typical Starbucks. Huge indoor space, quick service. Loved the cafe. Drink was made good- not great. But I was happy Starbucks was offered within the park.

    This place is super busy quite often apparently. My kids partner works for Disney and they offered to bring me to Epcot cuz they know it's my favorite and it was during the food and wine festival which I love. We passed through here when we first arrived because it's nice to get out of the heat sometimes. After we spent our day circling the world and tasting quite a few foods we came back through here to stop at the Starbucks location. Basically the cafe is on one side of the wall and Starbucks is on the other side with tons of seating all throughout. We each got a water and my kid got a small cream-based drink. The service was good and we received stuff quickly. We found a seat to relax before heading back out into the 100° heat and humidity. It was a very good day at Epcot all around and the cafe isn't a bad place with plenty of people working to serve their amenities and keep the place clean.

    Lots of booth seating and tables if you wanna stop and eat, or take a breather from all the walking at Epcot.

The Pistachio Toffee Cookie was my favorite alongside the Banana Walnut! Heard the amazing hype about Gideons and I knew I had to make sure I get a stop to try this amazing, mysterious cookie spot in Disney Springs. Located near the Boat House and Irish Pub, you'll see this somewhat secretive building with a long line of people waiting outside. It may seem long but it actually goes by somewhat quick at around 15-20 min and it was well worth the wait. The inside reminds of the Haunted Mansion with the spooky decor and although they only serve cookies, cake, and coffee/drinks, they honed their craft down on excellent quality baked goods here. The cookies are just densely packed with ingredients, firm on the outside and soft doughy in the inside. 1-2 cookies is definitely enough to last a long while and the cake slices are more like 2-3 slices in a slice so be aware of their sizing here. Staff here were very friendly and welcoming here, and made sure you got exactly what you were looking for. I also got one of their cold brews and it was perfectly made and sweet. Cost was fine and comparing this place to Crumbles, Gideons was hands down much better in quality and pricing. I will definitely agree with the public sentiment for Gideon: A known staple for amazing cookies in Disney Springs, you have to visit here when you're in the area and leave here with a few cookies you will not regret!

The actual shop is relatively small - a little dark with cute decor - looks like an old library. The cookies and cake slices are huge! We got the original choclate chip cookie, cookies and cream and a slice of Chocolate everything cake? Unfortunately we did not take any pictures of the items we bought. the cookies and cake slices were very decadent. Way too rich for my palatte! Unfortunately did not care for it. It was dense and rich and buttery.

There's almost always a line, but it moves fairly quickly, and honestly, it's part of the experience. You can watch the bakers adding the final, intricate touches to each dessert while you wait, which is really fun to see. They do offer a small selection of croissant sandwiches and specialty beverages, but for us, it's all about the desserts. From their signature creations to seasonal offerings, everything is visually stunning and (most of the time) absolutely delicious. That said, while most items are fresh and flavorful, we have experienced a few cakes that were a bit dry and seemed over baked. It's not the norm, but worth mentioning. Anyone else experience this? Yes, it's a little pricey--but it's Disney, and you're paying for both the quality and the experience. Overall, it's still one of our favorite stops every trip and well worth it if you're in the area.

The convenience of this store (being located directly in the hotel) makes it so that I would definitely stop by again if I was staying here, however I think that the pricing is a bit predatory.

Just not the amazing, life-changing pastry TikTok made it out to be. In my opinion, it's a little overrated. It's definitely fun for the novelty and the photos.
