A visit to the Festival of the Arts would not be complete without a stop at one of our favorite booths: The Artist’s Table. Nestled in the heart of the American Adventure pavilion, this booth screams “elevated comfort food”. And, lucky for us, that just happens to be our third favorite food group on the food pyramid, somewhere between the foundations of ‘bread’ and ‘potatoes’ – the unsung heroes of our diet.
There are so many reasons we love this booth: the ambiance, the beer flight, the dumplings, the beer flight, the hummingbird cake, and of course, the beer flight.
In addition to all the great beer offerings at The Artist’s Table, this booth also has 3 of our other most favorite things to find at EPCOT: restrooms, ample seating, and live entertainment.
While not indoors, you’ll find more seating around this booth than any other booth at the Festival of the Arts. Plus, there is a large restroom nearby and the opportunity to see live entertainment since both the Voices of Liberty and the stage for the Broadway Concert Series are just steps away.
If you are looking for a good booth to plan a little bit more downtime at, this is a great one for that. Let’s dive into all the details:

Photos & Reviews
Duck and Dumplings
Smoked duck breast, ricotta dumplings, baby vegetables, and duck jus.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Great portion and combo of ingredients. Wanted it to have a little more flavor.
Heather: The dumplings were extremely salty – like SO salty. Was this a bad batch?! The duck had good flavor – Smokey.
Felicia: Holy moly, I loved this. Everything. Generally don’t enjoy duck because it’s gamey but this is delicious. The carrots are cooked perfectly and the mash is lovely. Plus the dumplings are a perfect pairing. Usually the items here are just okay, but thought this was fantastic.
Hummingbird Cake
Banana and pecan cake dipped in cream cheese icing with caramel sauce and warm pineapple compote.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Oh, yum! Lots of sweet flavors all coming together so perfectly.
Heather: Tastes like a hummingbird cake. Nothing extraordinary – but that’s ok. Because it’s really good.
Felicia: Incredible dessert. Banana isn’t too strong, it’s perfectly. Post, nice frosting/glaze. Pineapple on the side is lovely. So so good.
Wicked Weed Pineapple Daydream IPA
Brewed in Asheville, North Carolina.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Really awful taste. I think that about most Wicked Weed beers.
Heather: There are hints of pineapple but the hoppy IPA flavor masks it. As an IPA, it’s okay. But if you want that pineapple flavor to shine – look elsewhere.
Felicia: It’s a fine IPA, but not overly pineapple-y and not overly special.
Brew Hub Jazzberry Wheat Jam Ale
Brewed in Lakeland, Florida.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: The jam flavor adds just the slightest bit of sweetness which makes it delicious. One of my faves of the fest.
Heather: I love everything about this one. Delicious-smells great. Fantastic berry flavor.
Felicia: This is sweeter than I prefer, but has a distinct and good berry jam flavor while still being a relatively light beer.
Lost Coast Brewery Peanut Butter Chocolate Milk Stout
Brewed in Eureka, California.
Note: this drink is also available in a flight.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: The peanut butter and chocolate didn’t come through strongly, but it’s a fantastic stout overall.
Heather: One of the lightest stouts I’ve ever had – not an obnoxious amount of peanut butter, either
Felicia: Not a huge peanut butter fan, but this adds the perfect subtle peanut butter flavor to a lightly chocolate stout.
Migration Pinot Noir
From Sonoma, California.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Big fan of Pinot Noir in general, but this was just ok. Tiny portion.
Heather: Sharp Pinot Noir. Good bite when paired with the duck. I’m sure it has flavors or undertones but I’m drinking it with a funnel cake so I can’t taste anything but sugars.
Felicia: I love Pinot Noir and this doesn’t disappoint. Cold and refreshing.
