Le Gobelet Noir™

Le Gobelet Noir is a hidden restaurant within the Ministry of Magic Harry Potter Universe at Epic Universe. And when I say hidden, I mean we walked around for a good 7-8 minutes at first looking around for it, before realizing you walk through an obscure hallway to a little back area, and there it is. Once you find it, there are workers posted outside to guide you along as again, the chamber you walk into has no markings on where to go and there are 2 hallways to choose from. The left takes you to the pickup/ to-go spot and bar, the right will take you into the dining hall. I was surprised by how big the dining area actually is. There’s 3-4 big rooms with plenty of seating. If you need a break from the heat there’s is plenty of AC in here and it’s comfortable. The menu offerings are heavier food but it was good- I loved the beef goulash and it did not last long. They had a version of chicken noodle soup with a dumpling in it and it was decent, very simple but enjoyable. We also tried the baklava as dessert and it was tasty but definitely not the flaky, pistachio and honey flavored traditional baklava, so it’s okay as long as you’re not expecting that. Everything here is online ordering through the app- you either order to-go, or sit at a table and order on the app and note your table number on there.

This is the “hidden” restaurant in the new Harry Potter French area of Epic Universe. The place has like five areas and is themed very well. They have two fake stairwells and if you stand near them you can hear things going on “upstairs”. I’ll hot the issues first. This is another place where they force you use to the app. Again the problems with the app with trying to order what you want on your sandwich. The sandwich I wanted had mustard. I cannot eat that. No way to remove it on the app. They told us you have to click allergy issue and the chef will come out and you can tell him. That’s not going to work when you have a restaurant full of customers. The drinks here come in child sized plastic cups and they will not refill them even though the drinks cost just as much as the other places in the park that do allow refills. I’m close to calling the credit card company on this because I’m pretty sure we were told wrong and ripped off. They did give us waters. The employees seemed stunned here when we asked for a refill since I was almost out before the food even showed up. Her answer was to go into the app and order another. Just so you know it was just an unsweetened tea. Nothing special. Asked for the manager. They never showed. The soup looked so good but was so tasteless. It needed at least salt, again you cannot get condiments. Universal has many many restaurants all over the place. I don’t understand who is running it at Epic but they shouldn’t be. Now for the good. The atmosphere is really good, especially if you are into the Harry Potter world. The beef sandwich was really good. The dessert was also very good. It was a cool place to replace too. Lots of seating.

This place is easy to miss while visiting. We were planning on eating elsewhere and walked this way and soooo glad we did! Atmosphere is amazing with sounds of foot steps, fantastic beasts and music. Food was great, no major complaints. Menu has options for drinks including beer. This place is also very large with ample seating.

The whole area is a must see for fans of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts. While I did not go in expecting theme park food to be top tier, I can safely say the sandwich we got was amazing. Everything tasted great, was perfectly cooked and the portion size was perfect. Le Gobelet Noir not only looks great, but it also provided one of the best spots we found to escape the heat. Out of everything we drank on the tour of the parks, the lavender lemonade was single handedly the best, most refreshing drink we had, cannot recommend it enough. The service was also fantastic, with the people at the tills able to advise for intolerances and also provide some great recommendations.

Located in the Ministry Of Magic, it is an order over the app restraunt. Unfortunately for me, the menu doesn't really have items that are suited for my taste buds. I had the Jagerschnitzel and the sauce on top had a strong onion taste that overwhelmed me and I tried to scrape it off...I don't care for onions that much. My wife had the Lentil Stew and said it was good. The atmosphere and service was adequate for sit down dining and food delivery. The Sella Artois beer was cold and delicious!

Perfect place to eat with AC. Seat yourself. You can order through the app, food gets delivered to you. Reasonable prices for a theme park.

Not that hidden. Service was quick but the food was rather meh Had the beef goulash and wish there was more meat and more flavour

Think about a terrible experience, now multiply by 2, no, better by 10! This is Le Gobelet. They propose an ordering thing that doesn’t really work. The service, better say is the lack of it, is as awful. It seems they are not really willing to serve.

This restaurant is definitely a hidden gem at Epic Universe! It's tucked away inside an alleyway in the Ministry of Magic section of the park and is the coziest spot by far from the hustle and bustle of surrounding areas. Once inside, you can order drinks at the counter, or just take a seat in the one of 5 different themed dining rooms. The lighting is very dark and eerie and adds to the wizarding vibe. I loved how spacious it was inside and you can take any table you'd like and just order from the QR code and your order is brought right to you, and quickly as well. The A/C inside is also a huge welcome feature that helps with the heat of the summer big time. I ordered the hot shaved beef sandwich with fries along with a cold Butterbeer. The sandwich had on it Shaved corned beef, butterkäse, German mustard, hearty multi-grain bread, with fries. It came super quick to my table and I couldn't wait to eat it! It was something I saw from some content before going to the park so I knew this was a must try and let's say it did not disappoint!! I thought the sandwich for the price along with the fries was a fantastic deal! This is the price you'd pay at a normal restaurant not in a theme park so to get this quality here was fantastic. The Butterbeer was also good. I am not the biggest fan of the flavor but I wanted to try it when in the wizarding world. This restaurant is also a great spot to relax in while waiting out the rainstorms that are common certain times of the year. I was able to order, eat, enjoy the drink and take a little time to plan out the rest of my park day when inside. I definitely recommend if you are debating what and where to eat when at epic universe! It was delicious and the decor inside really adds a lot to the experience as well.

Excellent food and excellent service. Totally different than the Harry Potter at Universal/islands of adventure. The food is very good. The fries are excellent, and the pastrami sandwich was really really well done. The lavender lemonade is really good as well. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Cool and plenty of tables on this 95 degree day. Just grab a table and scan the QR code on the table to see the menu. You can order and pay through Universal Pay if you've set up a credit card already. They bring the food out in just a few minutes. The Pork Schnitzel was crispy and fresh, smothered with mushroom gravy and served with thick cut fries. Reasonable pricing at $17.95, but added a Berry Saison for a whopping $13. Everything tasted great, well worth the money.
