Booze, Bread, and Brie.. But Is It a Good Value? Spoiler: Nope

The Parisian Breakfast at Chefs de France is back for Food & Wine again this year! This buffet breakfast in the France Pavilion of EPCOT debuted in 2025 to mixed reviews.

The Basics

The Parisian Breakfast is billed as a “traditional French breakfast experience that transports you straight to the cafés of Paris” in the France Pavilion of EPCOT.

Dates: Fridays and Saturdays during EPCOT’s Food & Wine

Time: There is only one seating each day, 9:00am to 10:30am. You won’t be rushed out since there aren’t people waiting for your table. You may enjoy the entire 90 minutes.

Cost: $67.95 per person

• This includes $54.58 for breakfast
  • $3.55 tax
  • $9.82 gratuity
• Payment in full is due at time of booking. This means you can enjoy your meal and simply depart when you’re done unless you plan to have more than one mimosa. More on that down below. 
• Dining Plans were accepted last year but are no longer accepted. 

The price for this experience was $64.95 per person in 2025.

Reservations: You can make reservations on the My Disney Experience app or Disney’s website.

What’s Included: We were delighted to see hot items at our breakfast this morning that weren’t advertised on Disney’s website! The posted menu includes: Assorted French Pastries, Freshly Baked Baguettes, Cheeses & Charcuterie, Smoked Salmon, Fresh Fruit, and a beverage.

Beverage choices include: Mimosas, water, coffee, or hot cocoa. Soda and other drink options are not offered during this experience.

We were welcomed into Chefs de France with a mimosa and were swiftly led to our table.

The baguette was warm, and maybe caught a little on the ends and the ear, but it was still fantastic. The bread on the table at seating was a new and happy change this year. Butter and jams are available on the buffet tables.

Hot items in huge chafing dishes were a nice surprise since they weren’t advertised. The scrambled eggs in puff pastry cups with a sprinkle of chive, above, were tasty and warm.

The Croque Monsieur, above, was a nicely toasted ham and cheese sandwich ~also still warm.

The third hot item on the menu today was a ham croissant, which was nice. You can see from the plate above that all of the items on offer were of excellent quality, but special attention must be paid to the pastry at the bottom of the plate. That French Flag twisted croissant with a center of chocolate and a dollop of cherry jam is absolutely divine. Bread + perfectly tempered chocolate + thick, gummy (in the best way) cherry jam = l’amore. 

But Why Isn’t This a Good Value?!?

So is this breakfast worth the time and money? Maybe. Do you squeal over proper lamination and the perfect flake of pastry? Can you eat your weight in smoked salmon and cheese? Are you pleased with one glass of mid-tier champagne and orange juice? If you answered “yes” to all of these questions, 1) DM us your info because we should hang out, and, 2) YES! this is a good bet.

In general, this isn’t a good value. The reason we’re saying this is a skip is because they changed the endless mimosas to one mimosa per guest. If you want a second mimosa, (and who doesn’t?!?), that will cost you $4.99 per glass! Le scandale! 

If you plan to enjoy more than one mimosa, you will be presented with a bill at the end of your breakfast. Your pre-paid taxes and tip will not cover this new total.

We hope they make changes for the better before Food and Wine next year.

What do you think? Are you enticed by the addition of hot items on the buffet? Do you think this sounds like a good value? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
