Refreshment Port Menu, Prices, & Review (2024 Festival of the Arts)

Refreshment Port Menu, Prices, & Review (2024 Festival of the Arts)

Refreshment Port is a year-round booth in between the entrance to the World Showcase and Canada. For those in the know, it is the year-round home of the delicious poutine.

But, come festival time, their offerings expand to include items themed to the festival, too. For the Festival of the Arts, stop here to grab the Artist Palette Jumbo Chocolate Chip Cookie to take a cute picture.

And if you’re REALLY looking to have some fun, go wild and grab one of the seltzers, too! It is light and fresh and full sized!

Oh, and a nice bonus of stopping at this food studio is that they offer free cups of ice water. Only the permanent locations like Refreshment Port and Refreshment Outpost have that as an option, so it’s nice to take advantage of that when you can.

Photos & Reviews

Gnocchi Poutine

Gnocchi Poutine with Red Wine-Braised Beef, Cheese Curds, Basil and Burrata.

  • Price: $10.00
  • Special Diets: N/A
  • Rating: 3.3/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Meh. Dry gnocchi and couldn’t taste a lot of flavor to it. Good portion though.
Heather: Large portion, but the beef was a bit fatty and in huge chunks. Also – the gnocchi was cold-ish.
Felicia: Love all these flavors together but the temperature is odd. The gnocchi is hot and the beef is warm but the cheeses are cold. So weird bite to get. Flavors are great though.

Traditional Poutine

French fries topped with Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs crumbles, cheese curds, and brown gravy.

Traditional Poutine
  • Price: $7.50
  • Special Diets: Gluten-friendly
  • Rating: 4.0/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Great portions and flavors.
Heather: Fried Potatoes. Gravy. Cheese. There are days I love these 3 things more than anything else in the world, and when you mix them together? MAGIC. Large portion, decent price – the poutine is generally a win for me!
Felicia: I love this. It’s available year round usually, though. So not special to the festival. Solid dish and it’s filling.

Artist Palette Jumbo Chocolate Chip Cookie

A large chocolate chip cookie with dollops of colored icing to invoke an artist palette look.

  • Price: $5.50
  • Special Diets: Kid-friendly
  • Rating: 4.3/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Soft, cute, and delicious.
Heather: Super large portion and a fantastic kids option. The cookie is soft… whaaa?!
Felicia: It’s a good chocolate chip cookie and the presentation is fun. It looks overcooked but is still soft and isn’t too sweet. It’s a fun festival item.

Blood Orange Cosmo

Boyd & Blair Potato Vodka with Blood Orange, Cranberry and Lime.

  • Price: $12.00
  • Made with alcohol? Yes
  • Rating: 4.0/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Nice size and good flavors. Allllmost too sweet but the lime helps cut through some of that.
Heather: So tasty! Strong blood orange flavor, nice size.
Felicia: This isn’t too strong and is super cold and refreshing. But the orange flavor tastes artificial to me and that’s not my favorite. Decent option, though.

Boulevard Brewing Co. Quirk Blueberry Lemon & Lavender Hard Seltzer

At 4% ABV and comparatively few calories, this hard seltzer is crafted from blueberry juice with additions of lemon and lavender.

  • Price: $12.00
  • Made with alcohol? Yes
  • Rating: 5.0/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Yummm! Great seltzer and huge size.
Heather: Boulevard Quirks are THE BEST seltzers, and this one is amazing. I’d buy it all day every day.
Felicia: I love the Boulevard Quirks and this one doesn’t disappoint. Nice strong flavor for a seltzer but not super sweet and not syrupy, the flavor isn’t too artificial. Love it.
