Our 10 Favorite Booths From Epcot Flower and Garden 2023

It’s that time again — to discuss the best booths from Epcot Flower and Garden!

The 2023 Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival kicked off on March 1 (we were there on opening day!) and it runs through July 5, meaning you have plenty of time to eat and drink all of the menu items offered.

This year, there are a total of 17 outdoor kitchens, with 7 additional locations serving exclusive festival offerings.

As always, we want to ensure you’re not wasting money on booths that just aren’t that great. Seeing as we ate and drank everything at this year’s Flower and Garden, we know exactly where to send you.

Keep in mind that while we may not have all felt the same about certain items (and some of us couldn’t eat everything for dietary reasons), these were truly the standouts of the festival — and something we all came to an agreement on in post-festival discussions.

Some of these options may not have even been our top-rated overall items (keep reading for more on this), but these are simply our overall top choices.

Now let’s check out our 10 favorite booths from this year’s Epcot Flower and Garden Festival!

Fleur de Lys (France pavilion)

Fleur de Lys is one of our favorites at this year’s Flower and Garden.

Even without a festival, France is a popular pavilion in Epcot’s World Showcase thanks to the drinks, food, and Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure.

But, when there is a festival happening, France is usually the go-to place for many guests. Why? Because it’s just that good of a booth.

Don’t say we didn’t warn you about the lines. You just might want to rope drop it.

Between the cheese, the bread, and the beverages (we’re looking at you frozen alcoholic slushes), you can’t go wrong.

Believe it or not, we weren’t fans of Fleur de Lys last year. However, we are glad to say that the outdoor kitchen has turned itself around and is serving all kinds of goodness, including:

Croissant au Fromage de Chèvre: Croissant with Goat Cheese

Croissant au Fromage de Chèvre, Herbes et ail Rôtie is a croissant with goat cheese, herbs and roasted garlic.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Yumyumyum. Warm and perfectly melty.
Heather: I cursed in glee when I took my first bite. So very good. Warm, cheesy, and lots of flavor. LOVE!
Felicia: This is pretty good. The herb sauce on top has a nice flavor and the croissant is nice and flakey. There is a goat cheese sauce in the croissant that is good. Only complaint is it was a little dry.
Allyson: So much better than last year. Yum! Yum! Yum! Flaky and cheesy goodness.

Daube de Boeuf à la Provençal, Compote de Tomate au Romarin Gnocchi à la Niçoise

Daube de Boeuf à la Provençal, Compote de Tomate au Romarin Gnocchi à la Niçoise is a provençal-style braised beef, rosemary tomato, and niçoise gnocchi. This is a new festival item for 2023.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: What a fantastic savory option! Good portion, great flavors. Highly recommend.
Heather: This is a fancy Sunday pot roast and I AM LIVING FOR IT. So delicious. I am in love with this booth.
Felicia: Loved this. Rich flavor from the tender beef, the mashed potatoes are creamy with great flavor, and the roasted tomatoes are out of this world.

Kronenbourg Blanc 1664 Draft Beer

1664 Draft Beer is a French wheat beer produced by Kronenbourg Blanc.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Yum! What a delightfully light but slightly floral beer.
Heather: Nothing fancy…but a good beer if you just want … a beer.
Felicia: This is a good beer. Slightly sweet but refreshing. Only thing I really liked at the booth and I wouldn’t waste my time waiting in line for it. Easy to find almost anywhere.
Allyson: Just an ok light beer. Nothing fancy.

La Vie en Rose Frozen Slushy

The La Vie en Rose frozen slushy features vodka, Grey Goose L’Orange vodka, St. Germain Liqueur, white and red cranberry juice.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Like the frozen drinks that are so popular in the France pavilion year round, this is a delicious option with a cranberry twist. Love love love.
Heather: The France pavilion is known for their frozen drinks, and this one is always a hit with my tastebuds!
Felicia: This is very sweet but the flavor overall isn’t bad. Another popular drink that I don’t necessarily think is worth the money.
Allyson: This is nice and refreshing, but also on the sweeter side. Can’t go wrong with Frances’s slushy drinks. But it is on the much pricer side for a drink (and for the amount you get).

La Isla Fresca (between France and Morocco)

La Isla Fresca celebrates the Caribbean with some of the most delicious food and beverages.

We loved this kitchen last year and the same can be said for 2023. It is that good. Plus, Encanto music is played at the booth. Does it get better than that?

Overall, this is a solid festival stop, but we walked away loving the food items and the beer. These are the true standouts:

Braised Oxtail

A braised oxtail served with pigeon pea rice.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Great portion and flavors. Would make a great light meal by itself.
Heather: So, so, so good. A little salty and spicy, but delicious flavor. The rice was cooked perfectly and is a great balance to the topping.
Felicia: Huge portion and a rich flavor that is tasty. The ox tail is very tender and the rice has a nice spice to it.

Sugar Cane Shrimp Skewer

Sugar Cane Shrimp Skewer with BEN’S ORIGINAL Long Grain White Rice, mango salsa, and coconut-lime sauce.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Nice portion, great presentation, delicious combo of flavors. Has a little kick!
Felicia: This is so good. Perfectly cooked rice with a nice flavor. The mango salsa is refreshing and the coconut lime sauce on the shrimp is super good. Big fan.

Coconut Tres Leches

Coconut Tres Leches is a vanilla cake soaked in oat milk, almond milk, and coconut milk with toasted coconut. This dish is also part of the Garden Graze, the food crawl where you can earn a prize.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Love the light coconut flavor. Manages to be soft without being soggy.
Heather: One of my favorite sweets from this festival! Loved it. Coconut without being fake and not too sweet.
Felicia: This was so good. The coconut is light, the whipped topping is light and perfectly sweet, not too much. The cake is moist and delicious but not soggy. So good and perfect on a hot day if you need (or want) a dessert.
Allyson: Give me all the coconut. Love this so much. So so good. And it’s plant-based!

Islamorada Beer Company Coconut Key Lime Ale

This Coconut Key Lime Ale is brewed by the Islamorada Beer Company in Islamorada, Florida.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Love love love the coconut lime combo. Refreshing. Delicious.
Heather: I absolutely love this beer. So refreshing without being too sweet.
Felicia: So good and refreshing. The coconut flavor is definitely there but not super sweet or over powering. Nice light lime taste. Easy to drink, not too heavy. Would love a full size of it.
Allyson: Really enjoyed this. The key lime really came through.

Tangierine Café (Morocco pavilion)

Did you really enjoy an Epcot festival if you didn’t go to Tangierine Café: Flavors of the Medina? Why is this booth so good?

Maybe it’s because there is a full kitchen here, but whatever the chefs are doing, they better keep it up.

This continues to be one of our favorites, and for good reason. Everything is delicious, but the stars for us are:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Hummus Trio

A hummus trio with traditional hummus, red beet and black garlic hummus, and an avocado-herb hummus served with Moroccan bread and crispy papadam. This is a new item for 2023. This dish is also part of the Garden Graze, the food crawl where you can earn a prize.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Great portion and options of pita and crisps. Liked the flavors.
Heather: Absolutely delicious. What a great combo of flavors and a huge portion. Fantastic for sharing.
Felicia: Great portion size, cool and refreshing and every hummus is unique and super flavorful. Love love love this.
Allyson: Absolutely gorgeous and tastes wonderful. Such a great snack and perfect for sharing. Can’t wait to get this again.

Orange Blossom-Saffron Cake

An orange blossom cake with saffron. This is a new item for 2023.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Interesting flavors and pretty presentation but ultimately too sweet in an artificial sweetener kinda way.
Heather: I love this for the crisp coolness and the delicate flavor. Big portion and perfect texture. Fantastic treat on a hot day.
Felicia: This is very interesting. The orange part of the cake is what seems like a hard white chocolate shell filled with a creamy cheesecake-consistency filling. The green layer is actual cake. The flavor is great but only giving a 4 because the texture was odd. It is served chilled.
Allyson: Light. Creamy. Just a beautiful texture and flavor. Really thought I was going to hate this.

Chermoula Chicken Grilled Kebab

Chermoula chicken grilled kebab with carrot-chickpea salad and garlic aïoli.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Incredibly tender chicken. Delicious flavors. Loved.
Heather: Yes it is “just” chicken but man is it good! Amazing flame kissed flavors of yumminess!
Felicia: Delicious chicken. It’s tender and delicious. The chickpea and carrot salad is both sweet and spiced and complements the chicken well. Nice portion.

Lamb Kefta Grilled Kebab

Lamb kefta grilled kebab with carrot-chickpea salad and garlic aïoli.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Good flavors. Slightly spicy. Strange texture to the lamb.
Heather: They knock it out of the park here. Don’t sleep on these kebabs!
Felicia: This is also very good. Perfectly seasoned, rich flavor, and it’s tender. Chickpea and carrot salad adds a little sweetness and complements the kebab well.

3 Daughters Pomegranate Hard Cider

A pomegranate hard cider made by 3 Daughters in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Would definitely get this again. Love the light pomegranate flavors.
Heather: My favorite cider of the festival. Wow.
Felicia: Very sweet and not my favorite. If you like ciders and/or sweet alcohol it is good.
Allyson: I really love this. Such good pomegranate flavor and refreshing. Can easily drink this.

Bold Rock Tangerine Hard Cider

A vegan hard cider with citrus notes made by Bold Rock in Mills River, North Carolina. This is new for 2023.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Little sweet. Not bad.
Heather: I like this cider slightly less – but it is still delicious. What I like about the ciders here is that they don’t give big cider energy. They are just good!
Felicia: Kind of a very faint orange soda flavor. Don’t like but hated less than the other ciders.
Allyson: A fantastic light cider with the right amount of crispness.

Keel Farms Strawberry Elderflower Hard Cider

A strawberry and elderflower hard cider made by Keel Farms in Tampa Bay, Florida. This is new for 2023.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Slightly sweet. Refreshing.
Heather: I am not a huge cider fan, but this one is delicious. Heavy strawberry flavor…which is great.
Felicia: Very sweet but the apple/cider flavor isn’t strong so at least there is that.
Allyson: Yummm. Such a great cider. Give me more.

Bauernmarkt: Farmer’s Market (Germany pavilion)

Prost! Germany’s Bauernmarkt: Farmer’s Market is an all-around solid booth.

One of the many reasons we recommend it is because you’re served nice portion sizes for a reasonable price.

Plus, the savory and sweet options are filling. The beer is just good beer. And, you can basically create a whole meal here.

All that said, we must tell you to not order the Apfelschaumwein (sparkling wine and apple liqueur). Just like last year, it’s bad again. Your taste buds don’t deserve to be punished with this beverage.

However, do order the following:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Potato Pancakes with Applesauce

These potato pancakes are served with house-made apple sauce. This dish is also part of the Garden Graze, the food crawl where you can earn a prize.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Mushy apple sauce topping + soft potato pancakes = bad texture overall with pretty bland flavors.
Heather: I love potato cakes and these are good. I like the ham ones better, though.
Felicia: The applesauce tastes homemade and is delicious. The potato pancake is potato-y and fine. I don’t personally care for this flavor combination, but it’s well executed.
Allyson: The potato pancakes are well down. The applesauce is an interesting combo but you can’t go wrong with the potato pancakes.

Potato Pancake with Caramelized Ham

Similar to the plant-based version, but instead this potato pancake is served with caramelized ham, onions, and herb sour cream.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Much prefer this savory potato pancake. Better texture and flavors.
Heather: Very tasty I’m just a little thrown off by the uniform size of the ham. That’s weird.
Felicia: This is okay. Potato pancake is a lot like hash browns. The topping doesn’t add much and the sour cream is cold which doesn’t go well with the hot food. Just fine.

Toasted Pretzel Bread

This isn’t just any toasted pretzel bread, but it’s topped with Black Forest ham and melted gruyère cheese.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Overly salty. Tricky to eat.
Heather: Kinda hard to eat. Salty. Not bad, though.
Felicia: Absolutely delicious. The pretzel is soft. The ham is crispy and full of flavor and there is plenty of salty delicious cheese. Pretty filling, too.

Warm Cheese Strudel

A warm cheese strudel with mixed berries. This is the only sweet option on the menu.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Flaky pastry, decent portion, berries lacked any sweetness.
Heather: It is too chewy and the berry seeds feel funny in my teeth make it stop.
Felicia: The mixed berries were slightly artificial tasting. I didn’t care for the cream and the pastry was soggy. I don’t ever like this sort of food item though so maybe why I didn’t care for it.
Allyson: The pastry is nice and flaky, but I wanted the cheese to be melted a little bit more. It’s good but nothing to rave about.

Flensburger Dunkel

This beer is a Munich-style Dunkel that is brewed by Flensburger Brauerei in Germany. This is a new 2023 Festival beer.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Light, enjoy this option
Heather: Nice beer flavor. Nothing special, but a good option if you just want a good beer.
Felicia: Great dunkel that is full of flavor. Overall a fun and good flight.
Allyson: A good dunkel with a good flavor.

Bitburger Premium Pils

The Premium Pils is a pilsner brewed by Bitburger in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Light but fairly flavorless.
Heather: This is what I’m talking about! A beer that tastes like a beer.
Felicia: Solid Pilsner. Bold flavor but easy to drink. Favorite beer from this booth.
Allyson: Nothing fantastic. Tastes like your typical Pilsner. Not impressive.

Stiegl Brewery Radler Raspberry

The Radler Raspberry is a fruity beer brewed by Stiegl Brewery in Salzburg, Austria.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Just the right balance of light and sweet.
Heather: Maybe it is too sweet but at this moment in my life, I really like it. Will I like it tomorrow? Maybe. But right NOW? Definitely yes.
Felicia: Too sweet for me, but it’s a nice light and bubbly raspberry flavored beer. Good for fans of fruity beer.
Allyson: This was my favorite drink at this booth but some might think it tastes too much like cough syrup (I didn’t). It has a good raspberry flavor.

Florida Fresh (near Disney Traders)

Florida Fresh is a new booth this year that sells some of the freshest and lightest offerings at the entire festival.

If you like watermelon, you’ll love Florida Fresh. Even if you don’t like watermelon (like some of us at WDW Prep School), you might actually walk away very surprised.

Oh, yeah, cucumber is involved as well. But, trust us! These flavors work so well together.

You definitely want to order:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Watermelon Salad

A crisp watermelon salad made with blueberries, pickled red onions, balsamic, and feta. This item is new for the 2023 Festival.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Like this combo of fresh flavors. This is the kinda thing I hope to find at F&G Festival.
Heather: I’m not a huge watermelon fan (don’t @ me) but this salad is very good! Wished it was cold, though.
Felicia: Loved this. Refreshing watermelon, delicious blueberries, the acid from the balsamic goes well with the fruit and the saltiness of the feta. Yum.
Allyson: Love love love this. So light and refreshing, with fantastic flavor. Great portion too.

Cucumber Watermelon Slushy with Gin

A slushy with hints of cucumber and watermelon. This slushy may also be purchased without alcohol. This is a new item for the 2023 Festival.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Fresh, light flavor. Small portion.
Heather: Both options (with and without alcohol) are very, very tasty. Refreshing – light watermelon flavor.
Felicia: Wow, loved both versions of this. Super fresh and strong watermelon flavor with just a slight hint of cucumber. The gin is a perfect complement. So refreshing.
Allyson: So refreshing and lovely watermelon flavor. I really enjoyed this a lot.

Cucumber Watermelon Slushy

A slushy with hints of cucumber and watermelon. This slushy may also be purchased with gin. This is a new item for the 2023 Festival.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: This non-alcoholic version of the drink is much sweeter than the one with gin. Don’t like it much.
Heather: Both options (with and without alcohol) are very, very tasty. Refreshing – light watermelon flavor.
Felicia: Wow, loved both versions of this. Super fresh and strong watermelon flavor with just a slight hint of cucumber. So refreshing.
Allyson: A great kid option and non-alcoholic beverage. Doesn’t taste artificial, but fresh.

Citrus Blossom (inside the Odyssey)

Instead of having a booth near Port of Entry this year, you can find Citrus Blossom inside the Odyssey Pavilion.

This is a hot spot thanks to the air conditioning, tables and chairs, Orange Bird merchandise sold, and, yes, the food and drinks.

You can also purchase an adorable Orange Bird souvenir sipper, which is served with a non-alcoholic Orange-Lemon Smoothie.

There were several items we truly enjoyed it, like:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Orange Sesame Tempura Shrimp

Sesame Tempura Shrimp served with an orange chile sauce. This is a new item for the 2023 festival.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Fantastic portion, light breading, orange chile sauce is a great flavor component to the shrimp.
Felicia: The tempura battering is cooked well and is super crunchy and fresh. My only complaint is there isn’t enough of the orange sauce.

Lemon Meringue Pie

A lemon meringue pie made with lemon curd, lemon mousse, and toasted meringue. This is a new item for the 2023 Festival.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Delish! Great portion and presentation, light lemon flavors.
Heather: Really, really sweet. Not bad. Just SUPER sweet. Kind of a fake lemon flavor, too,
Felicia: Light and flavorful meringue with a solid crust that is a nice textural contrast to the meringue. Loved it.
Allyson: A decent lemon meringue pie. Good flavors that go together well.

UFO Beer Co. Citrus Hazy Wheat Beer

A hazy wheat beer with notes of citrus brewed by UFO Beer Co. in Boston, MA. This item is new for the 2023 Festival.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Yummm. So light with just the right hint of citrus. Would get it as a full size option and not just in the flight.
Heather: Really good wheat beer with a hint of citrus.
Felicia: Very light wheat that is refreshing. Light orange flavors. Great beer for the heat.
Allyson: A good hazy wheat beer that has wonderful orange flavors. Great for a hot day.

BRUNCHCOT (near Test Track)

If you’re craving brunch or breakfast all day, you’ll want to head to BRUNCHCOT.

This is a new-ish outdoor kitchen for the 2023 Flower and Garden Festival. While the booth has a new name, it’s set up in the same location as 2022’s Epcot Sunshine Griddle.

This is a popular kitchen that can have lengthy lines, so know you may have to wait a bit to get your food and drinks.

You can order many of the same items that were available at Epcot Sunshine Griddle. And similar to last year, we still enjoy several of the offerings, especially:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Shrimp and Grits

Shrimp and grits served with blackened shrimp and cheddar cheese grits with brown gravy and sweet corn salsa.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Excellent savory flavors with a slight kick. Fantastic portion size.
Felicia: Cheese grits are so good. The shrimp is plump and cooked well and all of the flavors go together well. Little bit of spice to it, in a good way. Solid item.

Fried Cinnamon Roll Bites

Fried cinnamon roll bites served with cream cheese frosting and candied bacon. Tip: You can ask for these without the candied bacon.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Crispy outside, soft inside. Warm, delicious. Bit messy though.
Heather: Is it messy? Yes. Is it tasty? Perhaps. Am I tipsy? A little. This tastes best FRESH. Otherwise, it gets extra greasy.
Felicia: Didn’t care for this. The cinnamon roll bites are filled with cream which is gross and weird and hard to eat. The bacon was a nice addition but overall not good. Weren’t served hot either.
Allyson: We ordered one without bacon (yes, you can ask) and these are just as good as last year. I love fried dough and cream cheese frosting. Yum! Great portion size and good for sharing.

Joffrey’s Coffee Cold Brew Cocktail

A Joffrey’s coffee cold brew cocktail made with milk, Kahlúa Rum and Coffee Liqueur, and vanilla vodka.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Good portion, but liqueur taste a bit overpowering.
Heather: Tastes like a coffee flavored martini! Yum!
Felicia: Delicious. Big coffee flavor, lots of alcohol flavor but not overpowering, and the perfect amount of sweetness.
Allyson: A great cold coffee cocktail. Such a good coffee flavor. Nice and chilled. But you may want to avoid on a hot day — might be too creamy or milky.

Epcot Farmers Feast (near Creations Shop and Test Track)

Once again, we can’t help but rave about Epcot Farmers Feast.

What makes this booth so special is it has a rotating menu. We tried the Early Bloom Menu, which runs from March 1 through April 8.

Here are the dates for the 2023 rotating menu:

• Early Bloom Menu (Available March 1 through April 8)
• Springtime Menu (Available April 9 through May 20)
• Summer Solstice Menu (Available May 20 through July 5)

It’s important to note that all the beverages, except for the Hibiscus Lemonade, remain the same throughout the entirety of Flower and Garden.

This outdoor kitchen is all about the hearty dishes and savory sides featuring farm-fresh ingredients. We definitely think you should try these:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Hibiscus Lemonade Cocktail

A hibiscus lemonade cocktail featuring Islamorada Brewery & Distillery Hibiscus Gin.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Beautiful presentation, good size portion, but gin flavor pretty strong. Be sure to stir it first!
Heather: Again – extremely refreshing. If you have to pick one drink here, choose this one.
Felicia: Beautiful presentation. Decent portion size. The hibiscus flavor is present but not overpowering. Delicious light cocktail.
Allyson: This is a good and refreshing cocktail. Plus, it’s really pretty. I loved the flavors a lot. Definitely tastes like a spiked lemonade. Tip: stir first!

Char-Grilled Bison Ribeye

Char-grilled bison ribeye with creamy leek fondue, red wine butter sauce, and whipped red wine goat cheese

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Gave this a 5 last year, but way too salty this time. Good portion. Fantastic combo of flavors (other than the salt).
Heather: Very good. The ribeye was extremely tender and the flavors were very … homey? Made me feel like I was eating Sunday dinner at my grandmas.
Felicia: This is incredible. The bison has a great sear that is seasoned perfectly (kind of a Montreal seasoning flavor). The creamy fondue is delicious and the cauliflower complements the bison and creamy leek well. It’s a good mix of flavors and textures. Absolutely loved it. Huge portion, too.

Chilled Potato and Leek Soup “Vichyssoise”

A chilled potato and leek soup “Vichyssoise” with bacon lardons, potato croutons, chive oil and crispy leeks.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Good portion, enjoyed the light flavors, but pretty salty.
Heather: Love this. Delicious. Creamy, a bit salty. For when you want the comfort of a cozy soup without eating hot soup.
Felicia: This soup is cold which is a little strange. But, it’s delicious. Great flavor and it is somehow creamy in a light and refreshing way. Would recommend if you can get past it being intentionally cold.

The Honey Bee-stro (near Port of Entry)

Similar to last year, we once again walked away loving The Honey Bee-stro. You can find food and beverages that are both inspired by honey and infused with it.

Just give us all the food offerings. Admittedly, the only drink worth purchasing is the non-alcoholic option. It’s like a milkshake, which is also great for kids.

The Honey Wine? Trust us when we say to stay away. No one should have to drink medicine at a theme park.

But, don’t worry, the dishes taste as beautiful as they look, especially:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Chicken and Waffles

Crispy honey-brined chicken and honey sweet cornbread waffle with whipped honey butter and spicy honey. This is a new festival item for 2023.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Sooo good. Surprising flavors in the waffle. Has a little kick to it.
Heather: It is sweet, a little spicy, and really, really good.
Felicia: What a fun twist on chicken and waffles. The corn bread waffle is tasty and soft. The chicken is crispy and spicy in a good way. And the honey butter is the perfect amount of sweet.

Pollinator Flatbread

Pollinator Flatbread with honey-whipped mascarpone, honey caramelized onions, blueberry gastrique, prosciutto, honey-whipped goat cheese, arugula, honey vinaigrette, and bee pollen. This is a new festival item for 2023.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Gorgeous presentation with so many ingredients. Good portion. Great flavors.
Heather: Too many flavors. They tried to make fetch happened – and it didn’t.
Felicia: Fantastic mix of flavors. Great combination of sweet and savory. Flatbread base is cooked perfectly and a great base for the toppings. Huge portion.

Local Wildflower Honey-Mascarpone Cheesecake

Honey-mascarpone cheesecake with honey whipped cream, whipped honey, crystalized honey, honeycomb, dehydrated honey, and fennel pollen meringue kisses.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Honey in various forms and textures. Enjoyed this light dessert.
Heather: Delicious. Loved it. Light and fresh.
Felicia: Delicious. The cheesecake is a solid cheesecake and all of the various honey components are good and add to it. Slight orange flavor.
Allyson: Liked this so much more this year than last year. A solid cheesecake.

Honey-Peach Freeze

A frozen smoothie with honey and peach.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: The peach flavor is delicious and the souvenir cup is adorable.
Heather: Very peachy. Would be good as a dessert – but it is over the top sweet.
Felicia: It only faintly tastes of peach, and the peach flavor that is there is artificial. It’s also very creamy and thick and so sweet.
Allyson: This is a good non-alcohol option. Almost tastes like a milkshake.

Trowel & Trellis (near Port of Entry)

Calling all vegans and vegetarians, Trowel & Trellis is back and better than ever!

This booth is consistently fantastic. Like last year, you can’t go wrong with anything you order. Seriously, everything is good.

Everything is plant-based, fresh, delicious, and filling. You make a whole meal at this booth.

Even those who aren’t vegans or vegetarians should try both the food and drink choices. These are just a few of our favorites:

Keep reading for photos, along with our ratings and reviews.

Boneless Impossible Korean Short Rib

Boneless Impossible Korean short rib with cilantro-lime rice, danmuji slaw, and kimchee mayonnaise. This dish is also part of the Garden Graze, the food crawl where you can earn a prize.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Great mix of ingredients, colorful presentation, really fantastic flavors, Kimchee mayo a particular standout
Heather: Stuff like this would make it very easy to be vegetarian. Very tasty.
Felicia: Very good flavor and decent sized portion. Tasted like a Korean short rib, but the texture is more like meatloaf (which makes sense based on it being Impossible meat). Solid option.
Allyson: A decent size portion and makes a good meal. This continues to be one of my favorite dishes at the festival.

Impossible Lumpia

Impossible lumpia with a Thai sweet chili sauce. This is a new festival item for 2023. This dish is also part of the Garden Graze, the food crawl where you can earn a prize.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Not my favorite of the Impossible options I’ve had at the festivals, but not too bad. Slight kick. Decent portion.
Heather: Such a great flavor and huge portion. Little spicy but not too bad. Eat it when it is FRESH because the wrapper can get a little chewy.
Felicia: Love this a lot. The impossible filling is tasty and not obviously plant based. Love sweet chili sauce. Very crispy and good.
Allyson: Love this new option this year. Did want them to be a bit crispier, but still very good and not too much heat.

Chocolate Cake

Chocolate Cake with black currant ganache, mixed berry compote, and chocolate ice cream. This dish is also part of the Garden Graze, the food crawl where you can earn a prize.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Pretty presentation, love the raspberry flavors in multiple forms.
Heather: I really like how light this cake is. And, it’s a decent size.
Felicia: This was tasty. The cake was moist and the raspberry flavor wasn’t overwhelming. The gelato melts quickly, though.
Allyson: This has good flavor but not too rich or chocolatey, which I prefer. It’s a nice and light dessert.

Parish Brewing Co. Bloom Hazy IPA

Parish Brewing Co. produces this Bloom Hazy IPA in Broussard, Louisiana.

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Portion too small for price, fairly plain and basic flavor.
Heather: Delicious and light and fresh. Fantastic complement to the spicy flavors in this booth.
Felicia: Strong hoppy flavor and nothing really noteworthy otherwise. It’s a fine IPA, but nothing special.
Allyson: As a hazy IPA fan, LOVE this! I would go back and get the bigger size!
