Outside Remy's Ratatouille Adventure at France Pavilion at EPCOT World Showcase at EPCOT at Walt Disney World Resort. Fun ride 4D ride.
Daniel B.

When it comes to the 11 countries represented at EPCOT's World Showcase, France Pavilion is one of the best. Therefore, five stars. Here's why: 1. It's one of the most beautiful pavilions. 2. It has lots of good food, including one of the top restaurants at Disney World: Monsieur Paul. 3. It has lots of good shopping including high-end brands like Chanel, Dior, Givenchy (which I just learned how to pronounce), and Louis Vuitton. 4. It has one of the most popular rides, Remy's Ratatouille Adventure, which I recommend. 5. It's home to the Pressed Brioche Ice Cream Sandwich at L'Artisan des Glaces. 6. You can get a lot of fun, delicious, and unique French cocktails here. I think this and Japan Pavilion are the top two pavilions in World Showcase.

The France Pavilion is located near the International Gateway Entrance. If you're entering World Showcase and make a right, you'll have to pass Canada, UK, and go over the bridge. It's the first country once off the bridge. This is one of our favorite pavilions and believe it's one of the best. To start, this pavilion has a show and a ride. The show actually has two options, first thing in the morning and then the last show of the day is the Impressions de France. In between those two shows during the day is, a Beauty and the Beast sing along. We prefer the Impressions de France. Aside from the ride and shows... they have the best food. 3 table service restaurants, 2 quick service, 1 drink location outside that sells wine and slushy cocktails, a walk up wine and champagne stop and then an ice cream shop. During festivals, they always have a booth and this is always one of the longest lines. My wife and I really enjoy this pavilion for the atmosphere. You are really emersed and it makes you feel as though you are in France. Overall this pavilion has a lot to offer. It has a ton of food, a ride (most of the pavilions do not have a ride), a show, shopping, wine, champagne and cocktails. I would definitely recommend checking it out especially when you visit EPCOT.

I love this pavilion! We've been here in the past to buy French perfume. This time we're here to try a little food. The Brie in a bowl was good, but it wasn't jazzed up with garlic or onion powder. I guess the task was for you to taste the cheese.

I love the France Pavilion at Epcot. The food overall was very great and the line was long but it was moving fast. I love the escargot croissant which was very good. We also ordered the red wine braised short rib with potato purée which was very good. I highly recommend eating at the France pavilion.

They had phenomenal frozen drinks however I was looking for a beer and wasn't a huge fan of what they had. I feel like they should've had another one or some variety at least but the frozen drinks was fantastic.

Tastiest bakery in whole Disney parks right up here in France pavilion in Epcot, love the place! Food is just awesome, creme brule, croissant, sandwiches- everything tastes delicious

The France Pavilion is one of the best in Epcot's World Showcase at Disney World. It originally opened in 1982 along several other pavilions. The pavilion was designed to replicate the ambiance of a French village. Some of the primary activities at the France Pavilion is exploring a wide range of shops and boutiques. You can browse through perfumes, wine, gourmet food, and beauty products. Once you're done shopping, you can stroll through the beautiful gardens and fountains, capturing the essence of French architecture. The France Pavilion has some of the best dining options by far at Epcot! The signature restaurant, Chefs de France offers French cuisine and the Boulangerie Patisserie offers an array of pastries and baked goods. You'll also find the L'Artisan des Glaces which has ice cream and sorbet. Another quick service option is Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie that offers sandwiches, quiches, and pastries. The pavilion recently added Remy's Ratatouille ride. I think it recently converted to a stand-by wait line and it also has a purchase lightning lane option. It's a dark, slow ride with some 4D motion picture. The wait time can get a little bit longer, so I'd highly recommend going on the ride first thing in the morning if you can! It's a lot of fun though! There is also the beauty and the beast sing along show. There is so much to do at the France Pavilion. I highly recommend trying out most of the food options!

Oh my yum!! In the sea of countries for the festival of the holidays the France pavilion is an absolute must stop for cocktails. There is a large amount of standing tables behind it with great views of the water and pavilion itself. Only wish there were some sitting tables. We got the hot chocolate martini which was to die for, it is like a chocolate milkshake with vodka. We also got the salted caramel vodka drink which came with an amazing cold foam. Sweet (but not too sweet) and the perfect night cap.

Ratatouille @ French Pavilion

The France Pavilion is definitely one of the best pavilions at Epcot! It feels like one of the bigger pavilions, with tons of different shops that you can check out, great exclusive merch, Remy's Ratatouille Adventure ride, and of course so many delicious restaurants and food stands that is some of truly the best food in all of Epcot! It's a shame that it's located at one of the furthest points at the "back" of the park! If you're eating around the world like I was, it was one of the last pavilions I got to (after rope dropping Remy's ride in the morning before any of the food stalls were open) because I started in Mexico. By that point, it was hot and I was tired and full, so I had no appetite to try much of the delicious food here, but it was such a shame because everything I did try and see tasted and looked SO GOOD! It's such a shame that I am for sure going to approach this with better planning next time and make sure to leave space for the French pavilions goodies next time I go!!!

The France Pavilion is located at the 8 o'clock spot in the World Showcase in EPCOT. The Eiffel Tower overlooks the pavilion and all the themed buildings. One of the big ride attractions is Remy's Ratatouille Adventure. We also went to L'Artisan des Glaces to get their croque glacé which was delicious. As part of the "drinking around the world" journey, we went to Les Halles Boulangerie to get the drink frosé.

As a kid, EPCOT was always considered the "boring" Disney park, but boy, has my opinion changed as…read morean adult! This is by far my favorite park to visit. Between the Food & Wine Festival, Flower & Garden Festival, and all the amazing food options, there's always something to look forward to. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is hands down one of my favorite rides, and honestly, I would visit EPCOT just for that ride alone! Remy's Ratatouille Adventure is also super cute, and I love all the little details incorporated into the experience. My favorite way to explore the park is to start in Mexico and work my way around World Showcase to Canada. It's the perfect way to enjoy the different countries, try new foods, and take in all the unique details. And don't worry if you visit when there isn't a festival happening! There are still plenty of great places to eat and things to enjoy. EPCOT is so much more than people give it credit for, especially as an adult. If you love good food, fun rides, and exploring different cultures, this park definitely deserves a spot on your Disney itinerary!

We arrived at Epcot during a graduation trip for my daughter and her three friends and were stopped…read morefrom entering because of a note placed on our account by Tyler at Animal Kingdom. That is why this review belongs here. A dispute at one park followed us to another and disrupted the celebration we had paid for. We had been Disney annual passholders for over five years and had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars with the company. This trip was my graduation gift to Yasmine and her three friends: a week at Myrtle Beach followed by a week at Disney. The original dispute began at Animal Kingdom when a ride was down as we tried to use our paid Lightning Lane access. I asked for a replacement pass. The interaction escalated into residency questions after I mentioned we had flown in. We had flown from Myrtle Beach as part of this two-state graduation trip and had one-way plane tickets documenting the journey. Then we were stopped at Epcot because of Tyler's note. Other members of our group were subsequently cleared after providing documentation. Yasmine remained blocked. She had turned 18 less than 30 days earlier and had been an annual passholder with us for years. I accepted that turning 18 meant she could be required to provide her own residency proof. What I challenged was why she had to provide a Florida-issued ID when the other seven members of our group were cleared without one, and Disney's website lists alternative residency documents. During this ordeal, Yasmine and her friends were made to sit outside in the heat for three hours. Later that day, they passed out and became severely ill after that prolonged heat exposure. Disney wanted approximately $500 for Yasmine to enter for two days. This was supposed to be a celebration of their graduation. These are the memories we were left with instead. I escalated our complaint. On October 5, Rick from Executive Correspondence called. When I asked about the different documentation requirement, he said Disney had the right to ask. He told me the website required one of three Florida IDs. I read him the provision allowing alternative proof of residency. He said he was looking at the website and did not see what I was seeing. He repeatedly disagreed that we had been discriminated against and refused compensation or a refund. I still did not receive a specific explanation of why Yasmine's documents were insufficient under the published alternatives. We canceled. You do not have to be a Florida resident to care about how a company handles a family's problem. Consider how you would feel arriving at another park and finding that an earlier dispute now prevented entry, then discovering that even an executive escalation could not get you a clear explanation. Our experience left me feeling that Disney was more concerned with keeping our money than meaningfully addressing what happened. After years of loyalty, I no longer trust it with our family's celebrations or vacation budget.

Everything feels very "crammed" together--tight, crowded, and packed in. Add the long lines and the lack of shade in this particular park, and at times it can feel almost unbearable. That being said, it's still Disney, and there's really nothing that can compete with that. Personally, I highly recommend Tower of Terror, one of my favorite rides, and the newly revamped Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, now themed to the Muppets. And for Star Wars fans, the Star Wars area is simply incomparable. You really feel like you've been dropped right into the movies. Toy Story Land is a must with little ones, although I still feel like something is missing there. Maybe it's just me... We'll see what happens when the long-awaited Monsters, Inc. area finally opens. As always, my recommendation is to bring your own snacks and something to eat, because food inside the parks is ridiculously expensive. And definitely bring a refillable water bottle! There are several water stations throughout the park with bottle-filling taps, so you can easily refill it instead of buying.

Giant game pieces, oversized footprints, building blocks used as architecture, and Christmas lights strung overhead as decoration all reinforced the scale in a way that rewarded me for actually looking around rather than just moving from ride to ride. Slinky Dog Dash is the anchor attraction and delivered as a family coaster that works for a wide range of ages. It is smooth, fast enough to feel exciting, and the Toy Story theming throughout the track layout is well integrated. Wait times regularly stretch past an hour, so prioritizing it early in the day or using Lightning Lane is the practical move. Toy Story Mania is an interactive 4D shooting game that holds up across multiple rides and was genuinely competitive and fun for my group. Alien Swirling Saucers is the gentler option that skews younger, but it is an easy yes for anyone who does not mind spinning. Woody's Lunch Box is worth building a meal or snack stop around. The totchos and grilled cheese are the items that keep coming up for good reason, and the Lunch Box Tarts are worth grabbing for dessert if I want something to eat while I keep moving through the land. The one consistent practical note is that the area has very little shade and gets genuinely hot during the middle of the day. Coming in during the early morning or staying into the evening is the right call. At night the land takes on a different quality with the lighting, and it is worth lingering in if my park day extends into the evening hours.

There, I encountered a peculiar spirit who led me directly to the wave pool. A tremendous wave crashed over me, releasing the spirit from my body--and, in a touching gesture of supernatural gratitude, he purchased me a cup of Dippin' Dots. In all seriousness, Typhoon Lagoon is one of my favorite water parks. The wave pool is fantastic, and Castaway Creek--the lazy river--is wonderfully relaxing. There are plenty of rides for thrill-seekers, while the entire park is beautifully themed around the aftermath of a tropical storm. Even the walking paths are thoughtfully designed, with little water sprayers keeping the pavement damp so your feet don't feel as though they're marching across the surface of the sun.

The after-hours event is also a tremendous amount of fun, especially with the park illuminated at night. Seeing the slides, palm trees, wave pool, and storm-tossed scenery glowing after sunset gives the place an entirely different personality--almost as if the typhoon itself has returned from beyond the grave. Whether you want to relax, ride some excellent attractions, float along the lazy river, or be spiritually cleansed by a six-foot wave before receiving complimentary Dippin' Dots from a benevolent ghost, Typhoon Lagoon is well worth visiting.

The wave pool was hands down the coolest feature. Watching those giant waves roll in was so much fun and unlike any other wave pool I've experienced. I could have spent hours just hanging out there. The lazy river was nice and relaxing, but be prepared to exercise a little patience if you're hoping to grab a tube since they can be in high demand throughout the day. Pro tip: get there right at opening if you want to snag a lounge chair. They go quickly, especially on busy days. Another perk? Disney provides as many towels as you need, which was a nice touch and one less thing to worry about packing. Overall, Typhoon Lagoon is a great way to cool off, relax, and have some Disney fun.
