Tangierine Cafe – Flavors of the Medina is one of those Festival booths that rarely surprises us, but still serves up solid eats for every EPCOT festival.


Tangierine Café


We’re live at the 2026 EPCOT Festival of the Arts, checking out the food studios, artistic performances, merchandise, and more. There’s a LOT going on, but don’t let it overwhelm you. We’re here to tell you everything you need to know before your visit. Let’s go to the Tangierine Cafe: Flavors of the Medina and see what’s cooking this year.

Menu​


For years, the menu didn’t change at Tangierine Cafe when it came to Festival eats, but this year we have a new savory dish for the Festival of the Arts — a Moroccan Wrap with tomato-cucumber relish and garlic sauce served on warm Moroccan flatbread that you can get filled with your choice of Chermoula Chicken, plant-based Falafel, or Moroccan-spiced lamb. This dish is $6.29 or a snack credit on the Dining Plan.

You’ll also find the always-on-the-menu Stone-baked Moroccan Bread with assorted dips for $5.25, or a snack credit on the Dining Plan.

Drinks for this year include: three hard ciders (one is new for 2026) and a hard cider flight where you can sample all 3 hard ciders!

2026 Tangierine Cafe Menu


We like to call the Tangerine Cafe always the bridesmaid, never the bride! They have consistent offerings that don’t seem to change too much from year to year, but I feel like if they had ever completely bow out of a festival, people would riot cause they’d be like where is my Moroccan wrap? Where is my stone-baked bread with the dips people love bread with the dips?

Now that we’ve taken a look at the menu, let’s dive into the food itself!

Eats​


Our first item is the new-to-this-Festival Moroccan Wrap with tomato-cucumber relish and garlic sauce served on warm Moroccan flatbread that you can get filled with your choice of Chermoula Chicken, plant-based Falafel, or Moroccan-spiced lamb. This dish is $6.29 or a snack credit on the Dining Plan. This wrap was a change that we welcomed, but we do miss the kebabs. The kebabs were a little more friendly to picky eaters, whereas this is a little hard for picky eaters to pick certain things out. We appreciate that they made the wrap very easy to walk around with without anything spilling out.

Moroccan Wrap with Chermoula Chicken


The chicken was FANTASTIC! You can taste that it was grilled with that charring and smokiness to it. It doesn’t have a lot of seasoning, but you get the flavor from the sauce. The veggies pair beautifully with the chicken.

Up next, we ordered the Stone-baked Moroccan Bread with assorted dips for $5.25, or a snack credit on the Dining Plan.

Stone-Baked Bread with assorted dips


This is more of a pita bread consistency, and less like that “inflated balloon” look and feel that it has been the past couple of years. We were happy to see that they changed that!

This is so good!


The dips are good — they had a nutty and common hummus…

This ones got a kick!


Feel free to experiment with them; we discovered we liked mixing all three!

Try the dip!

Drinks​


The best way to sample the 3 hard ciders on this year’s menu is by ordering the Hard Cider Flight for $12.75.

This flight includes the 3 hard ciders for this year:

  • Rekorderlig Strawberry-Lime Hard Cider
  • Keel Farms Blueberry Lavender Hard Cider
  • Blake’s Hard Cider Co. Pomegranate Fizz Hard Cider (New)

Hard Cider Flight


The Hard Cider Flight consistently is one of our favorites of the festival! The strawberry lime was more notable, aromatic, and had a strawberry smell and taste. You can get a hint of that lime, but it’s more of a tangy lime, giving the cider a bit of a zing. So if you’re looking for a strawberry cider with a kick, this is the thing for you!

The blueberry lavender is also one that you’re gonna smell before you actually taste it. You can get that blueberry in the initial, but it tastes very floral. If you’re not super into lavender, you probably won’t be a big fan of this one, and its aroma may catch you by surprise. You just have to really appreciate that lavender taste along with that smell.

Last, we tried the Pomegranate Fizz, which was fine. We don’t feel like we got a whole lot of pomegranate notes to it, and maybe that was by design. It just really tastes like a regular hard cider. You kind of have to mow it around a little bit to really get that pomegranate flavor. Overall, we still found this one really good!

If you’re just looking to sample one of the hard ciders alone, they’re priced at $6.00 for a 6-oz and $9.75 for a 12-oz.

OVERALL​


This is just a solid and consistent spot to hit during the festival. You can never go wrong with the bread, and the cider flight and wrap are great options as well. Even if you say you’ve had it before, we guarantee you’ll find yourself back here. Guess what, we don’t blame you! It’s just that good and comforting!
