Wine & Champagne Kiosk in Epcot's France

Perhaps one of the least assuming places to grab a fantastic cocktail is the small Kiosk on the side of the water in Epcot's France Pavilion. This small but bustling booth serves up a variety of French alcoholic delights. You can fine nine selections of wines, the French Beer Kronenbourg 1664 and chilled shots of Grand Marnier.

Date Night in Epcot's Mexico Pavilion

Mexico! When I think of Mexico I think of the Food, the Music, and the Tequila. All of these things can make for a fantastic night at Epcot's Mexico Pavilion in the World Showcase. Situated on the left hand side at the beginning of the promenade, the Mexico Pavilion beckons you for fun more than romance, but it still makes for a fantastic destination for your Disney Date Night.
