Dining with characters is done

[Sirwalterraleigh]

At the plaza inn you get about 13 characters too...

That’s the best character spot by far at a domestic park. Wish I had taken my kids there when they were a little younger

I had a reservation there for May 2020.

Goofy's Kitchen in its heyday was great, too, because you got both face characters and fur characters.

We were there in October 2016 and August 2019

Great news for H&V. Can't wait for the return of CP and Pooh's Picnic in the Hundred Acre Wood. That's the one character meal my 11 year old is still aching to enjoy. I know the food and price don't jive, but his reactions to Piglet even in the cavalcades would make it worth it for our family.

I would imagine garden grill would be next...and then crystal palace. Then I’d bet tusker house

I hope it does come back! Character dining has always been one of my favorite family experiences, and the Crystal Palace has good food.

If they could figure out Tusker in a way similar to Biergarten, AK is really hurting for some dining options right now. Though with FotLK returning that are made is about to get busy and tight.

GG already has characters back in modified form.

Correct...which is why I think they get their breakfast back...similar to Hollywood and vine

The wrinkle there is Epcot’s hours...if it stays as they are now indefinitely, garden grill gets knocked down the list

I’m definitely looking to crystals and tusker house then

Yeah...what’s up with DAKL? somehow food has become “optional”
There...

They need tusker...kinda lazy not to just make it a family style and get it going

I love tiffins...but the menu isn’t family friendly really at all.

My wife said yesterday that Crystal Palace was “totally disappointing”. I think she meant the food, which is even more disheartening because pre-Covid we also really liked the food options there.

Entertainment doesn’t get enough credit for the magic they create.

Don’t tell me that!

 

[HauntedPirate]

Don’t tell me that!

Believe me, I was not thrilled when she made that comment.

Curious to reviews and pricing.

Pricing info - $42 per adult and $27 per child (3-9), plus tax and gratuity.

Yeah...what they have now doesn’t look good at all...

Breakfast with the characters was fine - you can’t screw up breakfast - but I wouldn’t go to any of these platter/buffet slop spots after the prices went bonkers (probably 2008?).

A la carte ensures some preparation quality and service

I didn’t care for it before COVID, either.

Because it wasn’t very good...neither was liberty tree...chef Mickey’s...park fare...garden grill declined.

It’s the ingredients...you see the pattern?

And the prices doubled. Pattern there too.
