Disney4me Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 With the Epcot transformation bringing some MAJOR construction to the park, it looks like it’s finally time to say goodbye to the Electric Umbrella. Electric Umbrella sign While it appeared for some time that the originally slated construction on the restaurant was delayed, the Future World area (where Electric Umbrella is located) is currently undergoing a redesign for the AMAZING new Epcot! And as of today, the Walt Disney World website is listing updated hours for the quick service location. You’ll see in the screenshot below that Electric Umbrella will be open from 11:00 AM – 9:00 PM on February 15, 2020.

Still, with the website noting a closing “this winter” regardless, it does seem that the time may be upon us. Electric Umbrella has been a staple quick-service location in Epcot with its chicken nuggets, burgers, desserts, and other eats, and we’ll miss grabbing a burger and fries underneath the glow of those perfectly retro-Epcot neon umbrellas inside.

Outdoor seating at Electric Umbrella View of the Fountains Still… though we’ll be without the ol’ Umbrella, we won’t be without a few classic quick service eats while in Epcot. Counter Service staples like Chicken Breast Nuggets, Flatbreads, and more are newly available at the Epcot Experience. Pepperoni Flatbread Check out our full review of the Epcot Experience menu here!
