Also the perfect drunk food for all the people who start in Mexico... solidifying Canada as the pavilion to end in 🤣

It is, but I’m glad to have an in park option. It’s one of my favorite snacks.

I was just going to ask if the poutine place was still open at DS.

Just head over to Disney Springs! You can satisfy your poutine cravings there, plus explore their extensive array of shops and other eateries! 🤪

If the fries aren't crispy, it's a failure.

👍 from me. Slight criticism is that I feel like having only 2 options of poutine is kinda limiting. Would like to see a 3rd added that maybe rotates seasonally.

I will definitely be poutine that in my belly

Canadian summoned. Hey - that’s actually a good looking poutine 👀

I wonder how many people know it used to be a McD's?

Wasn’t it just under refurb not too long ago?

Captain BarbossaApr 09, 2026

While on the subject, is the poutine place at Springs still kicking?

Or a McDonald’s! Although i did enjoy getting a McFlurry at Epcot before illuminations. Am I officially old now? 😭
