How to Get a Chefs de France Reservation

  1. Book the day your window opens. Disney World dining reservations open 60 days ahead. Guests staying at a Disney resort hotel can book 60 days before check-in for their whole stay (up to 10 days).
  2. Keep checking as your date gets close. Disney charges a no-show fee when a reservation is cancelled less than a day ahead, so plenty of tables open up in the final few days.
  3. Be flexible on time and party size. Early lunch and late dinner slots open more often, and smaller parties fit into more tables.

About Chefs de France

Be transported to the heart of Paris without leaving EPCOT. Chefs de France is a bright, airy brasserie located in the France Pavilion of World Showcase, designed to capture the warmth and elegance of a classic Parisian café.

The Setting

High ceilings, intricate mosaic flooring, and expansive windows looking out onto the World Showcase promenade create a dining room that feels genuinely French. Sunlight pours in throughout the day, making it one of the more pleasant indoor dining environments in the park. The atmosphere strikes a balance between special occasion and everyday brasserie — dressed up enough to feel like a real meal, relaxed enough that families with children feel completely at home.

The France Pavilion

Chefs de France sits at the heart of the France Pavilion, surrounded by a lovingly detailed recreation of a Parisian neighborhood. The pavilion includes a patisserie, wine shop, and the adjacent La Crêperie de Paris, making the entire area a genuine destination for food lovers visiting World Showcase. Advance dining reservations are highly recommended, as walk-up availability is limited during peak park hours.
