Reviews of Norway Pavilion

Although Norway houses Frozen Ever After, there isn’t much else to it. The Norway bakery has some good snacks, but it’s not a good quick service. It lacks in activities and atmosphere. The princess dining is good, but tucked away. I wouldn’t consider this a must-do pavilion unless you have a little one that loves Frozen/princesses.

I love when I see that Stave church coming up to the pavilion, we’ve had many amazing memories at the Princess breakfast at Askershus, and the Frozen ride is absolutely amazing.
Pros:
Princess breakfast, the atmosphere of Restaurant Askershus, Frozen Ever After ride, the Stave church and the museum inside of itCons:
I would just say aside from the Stave church it’s not a beautiful pavilion to look at, it’s not one I typically hang out in like some othersReviewed by KevintheSnipe Review Date: 08/16/2021

This is a very fun pavilion with some great food (Akershus and Kringla), an awesome ride, fun meet and greets and great shopping. The dining locations in this pavilion really are great with one having some delicious baked goods (yes, I am thinking of the school bread) and the other having some great, unique food as well as characters to make it a character dining restaurant with lot of popular princesses. Frozen Ever After has become my new favorite ride in Epcot- it is so fun and beautiful! You can meet both Anna and Elsa in this pavilion which is always fun and there are lots of different items to shop for here because of the number of popular brands that originated in Norway. This is quite possibly one of -or is- the most popular pavilions in the world showcase but it is one of the smallest which causes some big crowds when the park is really busy. Reading other reviews before writing this, lots of people were mentioning how this has become more of a Frozen pavilion than Norway and I can agree. Frozen is really pushed in your face in this pavilion and I would like the actual country of Norway to be represented more in its pavilion. This is one of the most family friendly pavilions because of the meet and greets, the character dining and the attraction.
Pros:
Great food, fun meet and greets as well as a great attraction.Cons:
The pavilion feels small especially since there is typically a line weaving around half of the area. Kind of focuses more on Frozen instead of the Norwegian culture.Reviewed by LoverofDisney Review Date: 04/30/2020

Overall I truly enjoy this pavilion. I love Akershus and it is a wonderful place to go meet the princess's. The Kringla bakeri has pretty good treats and the school bread is a classic. I personally have found it is more of a love hate treat I don't love it but some people love it! It is no France pavilion but still super fun and if you have a Frozen fan definitely check it out.
Pros:
Akershus, Character Meet and Greet (Elsa and Anna!)Cons:
I love Frozen but feels a bit like a Frozen Pavilion nowReviewed by Ag923 Review Date: 04/30/2020

I just love the Norway pavilion so much. The Frozen ride is adorable, the food is great, and the atmosphere is lovely. Elsa and Anna are a great character opportunity and I’m obsessed with the perfume that they sell.
Pros:
Beautiful, Frozen ride, food, perfume lolCons:

The pavilion itself has some great themeing, you can meet 2 of the most popular princesses in a very cute detailed cottage with their childhood pictures. Akershaus is awesome, you don't feel rushed through your meal and the staff is amazing and it's much easier and cheaper than Cinderellas Royal Table.
Pros:
Great food Great character interactionCons:

this is by far my favorite pavilion to visit. the food is very similar to the homeland of norway, the architecture is beautiful, anna and elsa are here, there's a ride too. the only reason this isn't a 10 is because i wish it was a bigger space! i wish disney would add onto this pavilion.
Pros:
beautiful, good food, anna and elsa, rideCons:

One of my favorite pavilions, although some of the changes are not my favorite. I love Frozen, but feel like it has really taken over the pavilion. Wish they had left it with the Somerhaus and that store and left eh other store to be just items from Norway. Miss Maelstrom too. I also enjoyed Akershus as a restaurant but totally understand why they made into a character dining experience. Wish we could see more interesting characters or have it be a Frozen dining experience
