Quick service
Connections Café
The short answer
Connections Café is EPCOT's Starbucks, sharing a building with Connections Eatery at the front of the park: Starbucks drinks, breakfast sandwiches from $5.29 to $6.59, a Liège waffle at $4.49 and a pistachio-chocolate mochi doughnut at $5.29. Mobile Order does not work here, even though it does next door.

Is it worth the money?
For a Starbucks, fine — and the Liège waffle is a better reason to stop than the coffee.
Disney Food Blog's September 2026 update notes two things worth knowing: Mobile Order is not accepted at the Café side even though Connections Eatery takes it, and Starbucks stars can be earned only by paying with the Starbucks app and cannot be redeemed in the parks.
Who it’s right for
Starbucks regulars arriving at EPCOT, and anyone after a Liège waffle.
Who it’s wrong for
Anyone hoping to Mobile Order or spend Starbucks rewards.
What is actually good
Starbucks, plus a few EPCOT originals: the Liège Waffle at $4.49 — brioche dough with pearl sugar — and the Pistachio-Chocolate Mochi Doughnut at $5.29. Breakfast sandwiches run $5.29 to $6.59, cookies $3.99 to $4.29. Prices checked 12 September 2026, from Disney's own menu.
Portions

Allergies and dietary needs
