Thankfully, in a festival that usually lacks in plant-based menu items there is Earth Eats, which is hosted by Impossible.
When we tried this last year, it was a solid booth food and drink-wise for those who don’t eat meat or seafood.
And the best part? You don’t have to be vegan or vegetarian to enjoy the outstanding options you usually find here.
The same can also be said for this year’s Earth Eats booth. The Impossible slider is still a hit, but the meatballs steal the show.
Plus, the booth even has a non-alcoholic beverage that is very good, which is sometimes hard to find at Epcot festivals.
You can find the booth across from the restrooms near Refreshment Port, as you enter the World Showcase.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Earth Eats booth, including reviews, photos, and our must-trys.
Overview
Location: Near Port of Entry (across from restrooms before you enter the World Showcase)
Nearby booths: Refreshment Port, The Noodle Exchange, Australia
Nearby seating areas: Uncovered picnic tables and standing tables
Not to miss: Impossible Meatball, Strawberry Freeze featuring Twinings Lemon & Ginger Herbal Tea (non-alcoholic)

The Impossible Burger Slider
A plant-based Impossible Burger slider on a sesame seed bun served topped with a wasabi cream and a spicy slaw.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Large for a slider. Delicious flavors. Nice spicy kick.
Heather: The only reason this isn’t a 5 is because the bun was a little dry. But otherwise? It’s good and spicy. Like me.
Felicia: This is really good for a plant-based option. Has a nice peppery flavor with an Asian flair. Would happily order it again.
Allyson: This is just as fantastic as past years. It does have a little spice, but so good. And the slaw is super tasty.
Impossible Meatball
This plant-based Impossible Meatball with herbed polenta, rustic puttanesca sauce, and basil pesto is a new menu item this year.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Not a vegetarian but would get this again and again. Great flavors with a slight kick.
Heather: Delicious! I’m a vegetarian now!
Felicia: Super delicious. Can’t even tell it’s not real meat. Italian herb flavor, polenta is creamy and delicious and the pesto is a fresh addition.
Allyson: LOVE! So good. Has a good spice — but not too much. So happy this was added to this booth.
Strawberry Freeze
The Strawberry Freeze is a non-alcoholic beverage featuring Twinings Lemon and Ginger Herbal Tea.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Light and refreshing. Such a good non-alcoholic option.
Heather: Very refreshing. Better than the one with alcohol.
Felicia: Generally not a fan of frozen drinks but this is refreshing on a hot day. Mellow strawberry flavor. Would happily get again.
Allyson: A solid non alcoholic option. Really refreshing and great flavor.
Strawberry Freeze with Vodka
This alcoholic Strawberry Freeze features Twinings Lemon and Ginger Herbal Tea with Ketel One Botanical Cucumber and Mint Vodka.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Light, delicious, cute cup. Alcohol not too strong.
Heather: The strawberry flavor is lightly, but the crispness is mighty. Am I in a fever dream? It’s good. Only caveat…I CAN NOT TASTE THE BOOZE. Boooo
Felicia: This is delicious and refreshing. Somehow has a fresh watermelon flavor even though it is strawberry. Loved it
Allyson: Not bad but I think I like the non alcoholic version better. Just ok.
Stephen Vincent Pinot Noir
A full-bodied pinot noir from northern Californian winery Stephen Vincent.
Our Thoughts
Shannon: Super solid Pinot Noir option. Small size though.
Heather: Red wine for the win!
Felicia: Served chilled which makes it tastier in the summer heat. Good for a Pinot Noir.
Allyson: For a Pinot Noir, I thought this wasn’t bad. But still just ok to me.
