Cinderella's Royal Table closing for lengthy refurbishment in early 2015

[Jabbas]

If you hashtag cinderellas royal table and then go above one of the pictures and click where people are tagging themselves at the restaurant, a cast member posted two pictures with the hashtag "cast only." Not sure if anything is different about those pictures.

I'll have to agree! Everything else is ok, but walking into the castle, up the stairs and looking out the window is magical, even to a group of adults

Which, as mentioned above, is why it should be an adult sit-down rest. with wine, tablecloths and cloth napkins, and not a princess meet and greet.

I remember hearing that the refurb they did was one of the kitchen, probably some plumbing and electrical too, but not the actual room where people eat.

I am SO anxious to see what was done. I really hope they re-themed the dining area. Not that it was bad before, but I have always felt it needed to be more....regal? I like the way the cruise ships have done it with similar style restaurants.

if the picture I saw on Instagram is new then it does not look really any different from the waiting area to the ballroom .... sadly.............

I assume it still serves Alpo and didn't decline by degrees to Kibbles n Bits.

So the lengthy refurbishment resulted in little to no visible changes? That's a bit of a let down.

far more than just a bit... its a huge let down...

It's an aging building that needs lengthy maintenance every now and again just to stay functional. See also: POTC.

Not all refurbs need to have upgrades associated with them. Routine maintenance is always needed and generally appreciated.

Of course, I'm fairly certain that this refurb included the installation of the ability for you to experience (at a premium upcharge) the experience of being actual nobility in a medieval castle. The windows seats will be reserved for VIP packages, and will open, allowing you to throw your leftover food at the peasants below. You will get your own all-you-care-to-throw plates of mashed potatoes, boiling hot stews, and rotten tomatoes, all on a commemorative plate that you can keep (or throw itself if you choose to).

I was told new carpet, paint, and some new furniture as well..

That costs money and effort where a princess meet-n-greet is a license to print money with no efforts needed to maintain standards.

Dare to dream--Disney could have a restaurant in the Castle that also happens to have stellar food. That used to be the case before it had its name changed to CRT.

But it's FAR more PROFITABLE now, And after all that's all that matters to TWDC these days.

Kibbles-n-Bits too upscale, Now it serves "Canine Nutritional Ration - Food Service Pack" gotta watch the pennies you see.

Guess which one you come across as recently on every thread.

I'm a realist I expect things to get worse and I'm rarely disappointed these days especially at WDW...
