Reservations are open for the 2026 Parisian Breakfast at Chefs de France, a prepaid $67.95 buffet offered on Fridays and Saturdays during the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival. The first date is August 28.
The price is only part of the decision. This breakfast requires EPCOT admission, may use shared seating, cannot be modified after confirmation, and takes place during the low-wait morning hours many guests normally reserve for attractions.

Parisian Breakfast Dates, Price, and Location
- Location: Chefs de France in EPCOT’s France Pavilion
- Price: $67.95 per person
- Schedule: Fridays and Saturdays beginning August 28, 2026
- Event: EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival
- Booking: prepaid; advance reservations highly recommended
Disney calls the breakfast limited-time but does not list a final date on the public dining page. Do not assume every Friday and Saturday through the end of the festival will remain available; use the booking calendar for the actual dates offered.
What Is on the Buffet?
The official menu includes assorted croissants and French pastries, warm baguettes with butter and jams, cheeses and charcuterie, smoked salmon, seasonal fruit, and a choice of beverage. Disney’s official photos also show miniature Croque Monsieur sandwiches with béchamel sauce.
This is closer to a leisurely continental-style breakfast with savory additions than a character buffet. No character appearances are advertised, and the menu does not promise the large hot-food selection found at some Disney Resort breakfasts.
The Booking Rules Have Real Consequences
- Valid EPCOT admission is required.
- A theme park reservation may be required based on ticket type.
- Disney Dining Plan meals are not accepted.
- Guests may be seated with other parties.
- The reservation cannot be modified once confirmed.
- Cancel at least two hours ahead to avoid the $10-per-person fee.
A dining reservation does not provide park admission. Everyone in the party needs valid entry for EPCOT, and the total morning cost can be much higher than the buffet price once tickets are considered.
Is the Parisian Breakfast Worth $67.95?
The experience makes the most sense for guests who already planned an EPCOT festival day, enjoy pastries and charcuterie, and value a slower meal in the France Pavilion. It is harder to justify for families focused on characters, large hot breakfast plates, or maximizing early attraction time.
The shared-table possibility also matters. Couples or small parties looking for a private, quiet breakfast should be comfortable dining alongside other guests before paying in advance.
How It Fits Into an EPCOT Morning
A breakfast reservation can pull you away from the shortest waits of the day. If Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure or Frozen Ever After is a priority, plan the attraction and dining sequence before booking rather than assuming both will work smoothly.
Chefs de France sits in World Showcase, so travel time from the front entrance is not trivial. Guests entering through International Gateway from the EPCOT-area resorts have the more convenient approach. Our one-day EPCOT itinerary can help place the meal within a broader park plan.
Before You Reserve
- Confirm EPCOT admission for every guest.
- Check the offered date and breakfast time in Disney’s booking calendar.
- Review the shared-seating and no-modification rules.
- Compare the $67.95 cost with a standard breakfast and festival snacks.
- Decide which morning attractions you are willing to postpone.
