Where to eat

Places we have written up come first, cheapest first, with the opening line of our verdict. The rest link to Disney’s page.

• L'Artisan des Glaces · Snacks, about $10 a head
  Yes, for the macaron ice cream sandwich above all.
• Crêpes À Emporter · Counter service, about $11 a head
  Yes.
• Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie · Counter service, about $15 a head
  Yes.
• Chefs de France · Sit-down, about $39 a head
  Yes, and it is the World Showcase table-service booking that most reliably delivers what it promises.
• La Crêperie de Paris · Sit-down, about $40 a head
  Yes, and it is the best value table-service meal in the France pavilion by a distance.
• Monsieur Paul · Sit-down, about $195 a head
  For a milestone dinner with people who love French cooking, yes.

Bars and drinks

• Les Vins des Chefs de France
  For the orange slush on a hot World Showcase evening, yes.

Shops

• La Signature
  French cosmetics and fragrances, including Guerlain. Inside the Magic reported it closing from 8 June 2026 for several months, with Guerlain moved to Plume et Palette; Disney still lists it, so check before you go.
• Plume et Palette
  Designer French fragrances, through a mock Paris Métro entrance.
• Souvenirs de France
  French-themed souvenirs at the back of the pavilion, with a Mickey and Minnie Paris range added in February 2026.

Around the lagoon

Every pavilion has a Kidcot Fun Stop, where children colour and collect a stamp from each country, on Disney’s own description. Next door round the lagoon: Morocco and United Kingdom. Or see all eleven pavilions.
