Sunshine Seasons is another one of our favorites for Epcot breakfast. Located in Future World, inside the Land Pavilion, Sunshine Seasons offers a large dining area sure to accommodate your entire party. If you’re familiar with the “Living with the Land,” attraction at Epcot, you’ll be pleased to know that some of the food served at Sunshine Seasons comes right from the greenhouses shown there!
Their fresh food theme allows them to offer many plant-based options (great for us vegetarians!) as well as some classic items for breakfast. They also have delicious breakfast sandwiches and pastries, and even grab and go items like fruit and cereal.
Kringla Bakeri Og Cafe
Starts serving at 9:00 AM
The Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe, located in the Norway Pavilion in Epcot, is a staple in our Disney trip. The cafe serves a variety of snacks all day long, from sandwiches to treats to beer!
The most popular item here is the School Bread, a roll filled with custard, but that’s not the only good thing here. We also recommend the Kringle, Lefse, and Eplekake if you’re looking for a sweet breakfast treat! This is also the only one of the breakfast places in Epcot where you can get a frozen coffee themed to Kristoff from “Frozen!”
Connections Cafe
Starts serving at 9:00 AM
This is the Starbucks location for Epcot, and because of the variety of items you can get at Starbucks, this is an easy pick for some of the best breakfast at Epcot.
As with all Starbucks locations in Disney World, this is a great stop for your morning coffee, since you can use snack credits from your meal plan here! Starbucks is one place you can’t go wrong for Epcot breakfast because they offer uniform food options throughout the park, and the world.
With a new and convenient location, Starbucks is a great way to start your day with breakfast in Epcot. From coffee to tea to berry refreshers, your signature drink is there waiting for you. Pair it with a delicious cinnamon roll, croissant, or cake pop, and you’re ready to go around the world in just one day!
Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company

There are five Joffrey’s Coffee locations at Epcot, with one being outside of the park, underneath the monorail, and the other 4 within the park. The one outside of the park entrance opens at 7 AM, making it the earliest option for breakfast at Epcot, and is great for those who love to rope drop!
Joffrey’s offers great coffee and teas, as well as delicious pastries and doughnuts. They also have specialty seasonal drinks, especially during the Epcot festivals. This is another great choice for breakfast places in Epcot because of the convenience and options!
Table Service Epcot Breakfast Options
Garden Grill
Starts serving at 8:30 AM
Located in the Land Pavilion is one of the most popular Disney character dining breakfast spots of all time: Garden Grill. Here you can dine while being visited by Mickey, Pluto, and Chip and Dale.
This restaurant slowly revolves as you eat, and you can see into the Living with the Land ride as you enjoy an all-you-care-to-enjoy breakfast!
The food itself involves a large platter of pastries, fruit, Mickey waffles, grilled steak, bacon, potatoes, and eggs! You can even get a plant-based breakfast feast here too, making it one of the best breakfast restaurants in Epcot.
Garden Grill was even featured in our Best Character Breakfast post!!
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall
Starts serving at 8:30 AM
Another great character dining choice for breakfast in Epcot is Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in Norway at the World Showcase. If you resonate with the princesses (as most of us do), this is the place for you to start your day in Epcot!
The breakfast here is family style, and is a great mix of American and Norwegian breakfast options.
But the real reason this is one of our favorite Disney Epcot breakfast options is because of the Princesses! While you dine, Belle, Aurora, Ariel, Tiana, and Snow White will stop by your table to chat and take photos.
See how Akershus Royal Banquet Hall ranked on our Best Character Dining Post!
And if you’re using the Disney Dining Plan, breakfast here is a better use than lunch/dinner, since it’s only 1 credit!
La Creperie de Paris
Starts serving at 9:00 AM
Located in the back of the France Pavilion, near the Remi’s Ratatouille Adventure ride, is La Creperie. This table service restaurant offers both sweet and savory crepes all day, and this is a great option for Epcot breakfast restaurants.
You can get classic crepes here, like those with ham, egg, and Swiss, or even dessert-style ones like those filled with chocolate hazelnut spread. You can also get mimosas, wines, coffee, and juices here, letting you have a very French breakfast!
Best Breakfast Near Epcot
Trattoria Al Forno
Starts serving at 7:30 AM
If you’re looking for a filling and unique breakfast before you even head into the park, start your day at Trattoria al Forno at the BoardWalk. They serve breakfast before any of the other of the best breakfast options at Epcot, and you can easily walk over to the park after eating.
I suggest you get some of the more unique items here, like the tiramisu bread pudding, breakfast pizza, or caprese omelet. They have some amazing options you won’t find anywhere else on property, and they make for a great start to your day! This is some of the best breakfast at Disney World, and the proximity to Epcot makes it a great choice for breakfast.
The BoardWalk is one of our favorite places around here anyways! We love a stop over here, whether it’s to dine or stay, and we always think it’s worth visiting the BoardWalk!
Cape May Cafe at Beach Club
Starts serving at 7:30 AM
The Cape May Cafe is also a short stop from breakfast in Epcot at Disney’s Beach Club Resort. This cute New England themed resort offers one of the best places for breakfast, and is close enough to be considered the best breakfast buffet at Epcot.
Breakfast here is Minnie’s Beach Bash Breakfast, where Minnie and her friends visit your table for photos and chats while you dine on delicious traditional breakfast items. But, don’t miss out on the fun options they offer too, like the salted caramel beach buns and cheddar biscuits and gravy.
The Cape May Cafe at the Beach Club Resort is a fantastic choice for Epcot breakfast, as it is nearby and is an awesome dining and character experience!
Ale & Compass at Yacht Club
Starts serving at 7:30 AM
Located over at Yacht Club, the sister resort to Beach Club, Ale & Compass offers breakfast as early as 7:30 AM, making it another great choice for grabbing breakfast before heading into Epcot.
What makes this breakfast so unique is that you can either order from the breakfast menu, or do the buffet. It gives this restaurant way more options than the others, and really allows you to choose whatever you’re in the mood for!
They also have an extensive children’s menu, and even an extensive coffee and tea menu, making this a great place for breakfast near Epcot for the entire family to fuel up!
Ale & Compass tip: You can actually have brunch here even though it’s not advertised! If you come for a late breakfast, they will start adding lunch items to the menu in order to flip it once lunch is over. You can manage to have the best Epcot brunch for no extra charge!
