“Once upon a time, I met a mushroom and I fell in love with it. And then I met some cheese and I fell in love with it. And then we had a baby and it was this poutine.”
If that quote from Heather doesn’t convince you to visit Refreshment Port and try the Braised Beef Poutine, who knows what will.
We continue to be fans of this special festival poutine that features French fries topped with braised beef, Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese sauce, cheese curds, and Gherkin relish. You get a huge portion for $10!
You should also try the Boulevard Brewing Co. Quirk Pineapple Orange Whip Hard Seltzer. Even Allyson who doesn’t drink seltzers or likes a creamsicle flavor enjoyed this a lot. It’s light, refreshing, and won’t make you feel bloated on those hot park days.

Similar to the Refreshment Outpost, Refreshment Port isn’t your standard Food and Wine booth.
This is a permanent Quick Service spot that you can find on the right-hand side as you walk towards Canada. It sits back a little, so keep your eyes peeled.
But, just like at every other Epcot festival, there are exclusive festival menu items sold here in addition to the daily menu (which includes traditional poutine!).
Here’s everything you need to know about the Refreshment Port festival menu, including reviews, photos, and our must-trys.

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

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Great portions and flavors.
Heather: If there wasn’t the other poutine option I’d rate this higher. I mean, it’s FINE. But the other is more fun.
Felicia: I love this. It’s available year round usually, though. So not special to the festival. Solid dish and it’s filling.
Braised Beef Poutine
French fries topped with braised beef, Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese sauce, cheese curds, and Gherkin relish.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Little salty for me, was spoiled by the flavors I preferred in the traditional poutine.
Heather: I am petitioning to be an honorary Canadian after eating this. To be fair, I love me some potatoes and cheese curds. (Although ironically, I hate the word “curd”).
Felicia: Huge portion, the meat and gravy is rich and delicious. The Boursin cheese is creamy and a nice addition. Solid food and good value.
Boulevard Brewing Co. Quirk Pineapple Orange Whip Hard Seltzer
A pineapple orange whip flavored hard seltzer made by Boulevard Brewing Co. in Kansas City, MO.

Our Thoughts
Heather: Welllll…. I love a creamsicle. This is a seltzer creamsicle. It is very tasty and creamy and delicious!
Felicia: Well this is just amazing. If you like seltzers, this is a great one. Tastes like pineapple whip in seltzer form. Delicious.
Allyson: I’m not a big seltzer fan, but this is actually pretty good and refreshing. Warning: you must like pineapple to enjoy this.
Florida Orange Groves Winery Sparkling Peach
A peach sparkling wine made by Florida Orange Groves Winery in St. Petersburg, FL.

Our Thoughts
Heather: Sweet – but truly not BAD. But, I would go with the seltzer if you are looking to purchase a drink from here.
Felicia: Sooooo sweet. Peach flavor is subtle and so just tastes like sugar. Not a fan.
Allyson: Peach wine? YES, PLEASE. Did not expect to like this so much.
