Rose & Crown Dining Room and Rose & Crown Pub will both close for planned maintenance on January 11, 2027. If either is on your EPCOT list for next year, it's time to pick a backup.
Disney's Dining Room notice says both locations are expected to reopen later in 2027. There's no specific reopening date, so we wouldn't build a spring trip around a meal here just yet.
Your pub stop needs a backup, too
This affects more than dinner reservations. Disney's separate Rose & Crown Pub notice confirms that the pub is included, with the same January 11 start date and reopening window.
If you usually stop for a drink while exploring World Showcase, pencil in another spot until Disney confirms the pub's return.
Keep the EPCOT day, rethink the meal
If a sit-down dinner was your chance to rest, look for another reservation that suits your group's tastes and budget. If you only wanted a drink, there's no need to turn that stop into a full dinner reservation.
Visiting before January 11? Your dates fall before the announced closure, but that doesn't guarantee a table. Disney recommends advance reservations for the Dining Room, so check its calendar for your actual visit.
You'll still need valid EPCOT admission for an in-park meal. A park reservation may also be required depending on your admission type, and a dining reservation doesn't guarantee park access.
Before booking your replacement meal, recheck Disney's current Rose & Crown notice and calendar. If your trip is later in 2027 and reopening is still unconfirmed, choose a meal you'd be happy to keep.
