Late breakfast at Crystal Palace

[DSMDGA]

We would like to have a late breakfast at Crystal Palace. They show breakfast ending at 10:45 AM and lunch beginning at 11:30 AM. How late a breakfast reservation can we make and be certain to not be rushed, and not have the buffet empty of breakfast foods, as they prepare for the lunch crowd?
Thanks!

My guess would be if you asked for the last breakfast seating you could eat until full.

I know people who've gone to the very last seating and raved about it. There were no food or rushing issues and they claimed things felt a bit more relaxed than the early seatings. It's also usually late enough to qualify as an early lunch at breakfast prices...as far as hunger and appetites are concerned.

If you want to make sure you get all your breakfast favorites book earlier, if you want lunch book later. We tried to over lap (my DH and 14 yr old DS can eat forever) to enjoy both meals and ended up disappointed as the breakfast food ran out (bacon and French toast) they would replace the food slowly with the lunch food. There was plenty of food, but it appeared the favorites from breakfast were not replaced when finished and the lunch portions were not ready to put out yet.

Did you ask for something that ran out that you wanted? Disney chefs are very accommodating.

You are probably correct, we did not ask.

Most people don't think to ask at buffets. I like my bacon extra crispy and you just don't find that on buffets. They have been real good about getting me my crunchy bacon.

Thanks for your quick replies. I'll book around 10:15, which will allow us to either arrive at a leisurely pace, or hit rope drop and get a ride in before breakfast. If anything is missing from the buffet that we wanted, we'll be sure to ask for it.

We always try to get breakfast at about 10:30 at Crystal Palace. We have always found that they refill food as it empties and sometimes we get to eat both lunch and breakfast food. We have had plenty of time with the characters and never felt rushed.

Our breakfast ADRs for Crystal Palace have always been for either 10:30 or 10:45 and we have always had breakfast items available. No rush, and no change on the buffet.
