Hey Universal Vacationers! Universal Orlando Resort has revealed the first look at the food and drinks coming to the Ministry of Magic section of Universal Epic Universe. This highly anticipated expansion opens on May 22, 2025, and will introduce guests to Wizarding World flavors with a French-inspired twist. Here’s a look at some of the food in the Ministry of Magic.
Food and Drinks in the Ministry of Magic
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic will feature several new dining locations, including Café L’air De La Sirène and Le Gobelet Noir. These restaurants will offer butterbeer-infused treats, hearty stews, and elegant European-inspired cuisine.
Here’s a breakdown of some of the must-try dishes:
Café L’air De La Sirène
- Butterbeer Crêpe – A new take on the classic Wizarding World drink. This crêpe is filled with shortbread cookie butter, Bavarian cream, Butterbeer cream, strawberries, Butterbeer drizzle, and a Butterbeer shortbread cookie.
- Baguette de Tinde – Sliced cracked black pepper turkey layered with arugula, apples, and Brie, served on a warm crusty baguette with zesty mustard butter and apple butter.
- Quiche Lorraine – A flaky pie crust filled with egg custard, crispy bacon, gruyère cheese, and caramelized onions. Served with mornay sauce and fresh berries topped with a lavender honey drizzle.
Le Gobelet Noir
- Alchemist’s Platter – A hearty assortment featuring smoked sausage, potato and cheese pierogies, pickled eggs, marinated beets, caramelized onions, and a warm pretzel with zesty German mustard and cheese fondue.
- Lentil Stew (VG) – A savory plant-based dish made with lentils, vegan bacon, and root vegetables, served with artisan bread.
What to Expect in the Ministry of Magic
The Ministry of Magic will be the third Wizarding World land at Universal Orlando, joining Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley. This new area takes inspiration from both the Fantastic Beasts films and the British Ministry of Magic from the Harry Potter series.
Guests will enter through Place Cachée, a hidden magical district set in 1920s Paris. The area will feature Haussmann-style architecture, interactive spell-casting experiences, and encounters with magical creatures. A Métro-Floo network will allow guests to travel from Paris to the British Ministry of Magic, stepping directly into the wizarding government of 1990s London.

The Ministry of Magic at Universal Epic Universe will offer a completely new take on Wizarding World dining, blending French cuisine with classic Harry Potter-inspired flavors.
