Prepare for lift off - literally! As you board an “elevator” to the newest restaurant at Disney’s EPCOT for an out of this world dining experience!
Disney recently announced Space 220 will open in mid-September, previously the restaurant was set to open in 2020 but due to the global pandemic, the opening was a bit delayed. After learning more about the experience, I feel it will be well worth the wait.
The Space 220 restaurant is located adjacent to the Mission: SPACE attraction, and is a completely immersive experience. Upon arrival, you will check in to the Space 220 Departure Lounge in Future World and board one of two “Space Elevators” that will feel like you’re being transported 220 miles above Earth to Centauri Space Station. Pretty incredible and the experience is hinted at providing out of this world views as you journey into the atmosphere!
Not only will this unique experience be quite the adventure, the food is going to be out of this world as well. Managed by the Patina Restaurant Group and under the direction of Executive Chef Marc Kusche, the menu will feature stellar dishes and gourmet recipes, with a two-course prix fixe menu for lunch, and a three-course prix fixe menu for dinner. In addition to great meals - there will be an impressive luxury wine list as well as an extensive craft beer selection and space-themed craft cocktails.
More details are sure to be announced soon and as soon as the menu is released I will provide another update. There is no word from Disney when reservations will be open to guests, but one of the perks of using Middle of the Magic travel is that we will keep an eye on that, and if you’d like a reservation added to your Magical Vacation, we’ll handle all of that for you!
