From wood-fired pizzas to wizard-inspired drinks and video game-themed snacks, Epic Universe’s food lineup is a full-blown adventure for your taste buds.

Whether you’re a die-hard foodie, a theme park veteran, or just want to try something magical, here are 10 must-try food and drink items from Epic Universe’s highly anticipated culinary offerings.

1. Trip to Vuvio Pizza – Pizza Moon, Celestial Park

Best pizza at Epic Universe

This isn’t your average theme park slice. Described as “the best theme park pizza I’ve ever had,” the Trip to Vuvio Pizza delivers bold flavors: chili, hot honey, arugula, and a crust that’s both crispy and airy. It’s a Neapolitan-style masterpiece with a spicy twist.

Pro tip: The crust is so good, you’ll want to eat it cold. Seriously.

2. PB&J Mac & Cheese Cone – Hooligan’s Grog and Grub, Al Bher

PB&J = Pork, Bacon, and Jam

This cone is about to go viral. Inside? Creamy mac and cheese, barbecue harissa pulled pork, maple candy bacon, and chopped parsley—all inside a cone that tastes like a garlic croissant.

Prediction: This will be one of Epic Universe’s most iconic snacks.

3. Stoic Steak Bowl – Spitfire Grill, Al Bher

A full meal that’s hearty and gourmet

Expect perfectly tender steak, sticky rice, sweet potato hash, balsamic-glazed mushrooms, and horseradish cream sauce. Every bite has layers of flavor and texture.

Pro tip: Mix the rice with the sauces. It’s magic.

4. Crimson Glazed Pork – Doss Steakhouse, Dark Universe

Fine dining inside a theme park? Yes, please.

This char siu-style pork belly is glazed in a rich “bloody” roast pork sauce and served with charred green onion mashed potatoes, acorn squash, and crispy mushrooms.

Described as “melt-in-your-mouth” and “absolutely stunning.”

5. Burning Blade Burger – Burning Blade Tavern, Dark Universe

A dark twist on the classic burger

A juicy black Angus slider with caramelized onions, American cheese, and jalapeño bacon on a black potato bun. Not the flashiest dish, but it hits the burger craving with a spicy kick.

Spice level: 2.5/5 – mild but flavorful.

6. Butterbeer Crepe – Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Ministry of Magic

Is this better than Frozen Butterbeer? Maybe.

Soft, fluffy crepes filled with sweet cream and drizzled with rich Butterbeer syrup. Fans are calling it “life-changing” and a possible new fan favorite.

7. Lavender Lemonade – Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Ministry of Magic

The most refreshing drink in the park

Tart, sweet, and lightly floral. Even if you don’t usually like lavender, this one’s worth a sip. It ranked above Lemon Squash and Tongue Tie among Potter fans.

Best on a hot Florida day.

8. Derigible Plum Juice – Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Ministry of Magic

Fruity, magical, and surprisingly refreshing

Smooth and bright, this drink is a great alternative to pumpkin juice. Sweet without being overpowering—and a fun option for kids and adults alike.

9. Toad Stool Cheesy Garlic Knots – Toad Stool Café, Super Nintendo World

Cutest garlic knots ever

These mushroom-shaped garlic knots are buttery, cheesy, garlicky perfection—served with warm marinara. They’re soft, savory, and “better than 90%” of garlic knots you’ve had before.

Yes, they’re photo-worthy.

10. Piranha Plant Caprese Salad – Toad Stool Café, Super Nintendo World

A fresh break from heavy eats

Mozzarella, basil pesto, vine-ripened tomatoes, and asparagus come together in this fun, light dish. Not the star of the show, but a great option if you want to balance out the indulgence.
