La Cava del Tequila (The Tequila Cave) is located inside the pyramid of the Mexico Pavilion in World Showcase. Tucked away near the entrance to the Gran Fiesta Tour attraction, this bar is a well-loved secret among Disney foodies.
Ambiance
The cozy, dimly lit interior is inspired by traditional Mexican haciendas, featuring rustic wooden beams, warm lighting, and walls lined with shelves of premium tequila. The atmosphere is lively but intimate, making it a great spot to take a break and savor a truly authentic drink.
There is a long bench along one wall with tables and corresponding chairs, several freestanding tables, a couple of high-tops without seating, and a standing-only bar.

Tequila is the star of the show here, with a selection that includes over 200 varieties! Whether you’re in the mood for a classic margarita, a unique flavor twist, or a full tequila flight, there’s something for everyone. Popular picks include:
- Dos Hombres Avocado (Avocado Margarita) – A creamy, refreshing blend of tequila, melon liqueur, fresh avocado, and a hibiscus salt rim.
- La Paloma – Lalo blanco tequila, Fever-Tree grapefruit soda, fresh lime, Dos Hombres mezcal and TajÃn chile-lime powder rim

No reservations are needed! This is a walk-up lounge, though seating is limited. It’s a popular spot, so you might have to wait a bit during peak times.
Steve Says
A margarita is a great way to start your day touring EPCOT! That is, if you fall into the Mexoci camp of where to start your day in the World Showcase, Mexico or Canada? Plus, it’s nice and cool inside the pavilion. If you can snag a seat, it’s a great spot to enjoy a cold drink and some chips. I recommend the Corn Old Fashioned for those looking for something different in the Old Fashioned category.
Wrap-Up
La Cava del Tequila is a must-visit for anyone looking to sip on high-quality tequila in an immersive, authentic setting. Whether you go for a classic margarita or something adventurous like the Avocado Margarita, you’re in for a treat.
