We’re enjoying ALL THINGS SPRING at the 2025 EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival!

And that includes a visit to the Trowel & Trellis Outdoor Kitchen, one of the Festival’s Outdoor Kitchen Food Booths. The Food Booths join the Garden Rocks Concert Series, the Garden Graze food crawl, the gorgeous Disney topiaries, and more as part of EPCOT’s spring festival. And right now, we’re checking out Trowel & Trellis so we can bring you our complete review… just like we’re doing with every single Outdoor Kitchen at the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival!

Menu

You’ll find Trowel & Trellis near the Port of Entry along the World Showcase Promenade. The food items returning this year to Trowel & Trellis are the Soy-glazed Pork Sticky Ribs, the Farmhouse Meatball made with IMPOSSIBLE Beef, and the Chocolate Mousse Terrarium.

The drink selection is where you’ll spy new items on the menu this year, including the Tropical Punch, which you can enjoy with or without Cruzan Mango Rum. Ology Brewing Co Spa Goggles Cucumber Lime Gose is also new this year.

Here we go!

Eats

Let’s start with the Soy-glazed Pork Sticky Ribs for $7.25. These are plated with green onions and peanuts. These ribs were more moist than we expected and that just made them even better for us. They had a great balance of fat and meat, and that just made them super flavorful. There was also a hint of spice, but it’s Disney spice, so nothing too out there. We also loved the crunchy peanuts on top because they added a nice textural element.

Up next is the Farmhouse Meatball, which features IMPOSSIBLE Beef for $6. This plant-based dish is served with Lentil Bread, Spinach, Marinated Vegetables, and creamy herb aïoli. And it happens to be an option for guests participating in the Garden Graze food crawl. Okay, where has this been all our lives? This SHOCKED us with how good it tasted. These meatballs ROCKED. However, we weren’t crazy about the lentil bread, although we loved the creamy herb aioli, which just added a lot of extra flavor to balance it out. This will be one of our favorite plant-based dishes.

The too-cute Chocolate Mousse Terrarium is back for $5.50. A matcha crumble and chocolate “soil” lend this dish its signature look and flavor. This sort of reminded us of a cookies and cream kind of dessert. It’s nice. Maybe it’s not a “must get,” but the presentation is cute.

We also want to point out that the matcha isn’t too flavor-forward because we know matcha can be a controversial flavor for some. If you don’t like matcha, though, you still might want to skip.

Drinks

New to Trowel & Trellis is the Tropical Punch made with Twinings Mango & Pineapple Herbal Tea, Minute Maid Passion Fruit Orange, and Guava Juice, Simply Fruit Punch, and simple syrup. You can try it without alcohol for $4.75, or with Cruzan Mango Rum for $11.50. 

This drink also surprised us. It’s light and super fruity. This is what you want to drink when it’s hot and humid out because it’s so refreshing.

And beer drinkers can try the Ology Brewing Co Spa Goggles Cucumber Lime Gose ($5.75 for a 6-ounce pour, or $9.75 for a 12-ounce pour).

OVERALL

Overall, this booth is not a best-of-the-fest kind of situation, but plant-based eaters visit just for that Farmhouse Meatball (and honestly, carnivores will like it, too, we think). However, we also found the ribs and drink pretty good, so you’ll want to make this a stop on your EPCOT Flower & Garden food booth adventure.
