Breakfast in the Parks.

[real mad hatter]

Good Morning All.If your a early bird,like myself,and want to get to a park for the rope drop,I usually wait until Iam in the park before I have either I light breakfast or something more substantial.But where in each park do you have your early morning breakfast? I have my own favourites but curious if there's a place I've missed out for that most important meal of the day.

We rarely do breakfast in the parks because it can be problematic if you are not doing a character meal. The only real good QS place that comes to mind is Sunshine Seasons in the Land. Main St Bakery is OK, but the place is far too small to handle the crowds it gets. RFC at AK has the only good non-character TS breakfast that I can think of that is at the parks even though it is technically not inside AK.

Even though I enjoy being in the park before rope drop for an early morning ADR, I have found that the resorts have much better restaurants, especially for breakfasts and especially if you want something that does not have characters. My favorite places for breakfast are Boma (AKL), 'Ohana (Poly), Kona (Poly), 1900 Park Fare (GF), Crystal Palace (MK).

I never really get to do rope drop. The kids actually sleep in when we are at WDW cause of all the activitiy. When we do make it out early we either grab something on the fly like granola bars or will stop at Main Street Bakery for a pastry and coffee. Otherwise it usually is a food court or TS at the resort or Charecter breakfast.

The majority of the time we do breakfast in the room or grab something to go at the resort. That being said, we enjoy brunch at Tusker House, Crystal Palace and the Supercalafragilistic Breakfast at 1900 Park Fare. A gooey treat from Main St. Bakery is also a must.

Whit! Kids sleeping in at WDW. Next time set that Mickey wake up call and join us early birds for the MK morning party,well at least for one morning only.

No way Hatter up every day at 5 am with them! They are hard chargers at WDW and by the time they fall a sleep from the days fun it is 12 or 1 am so we welcome the sleep!!! I will take you up on the Morning at MK on your next visit! Hopefully by then Starbucks is open in MK!

Breakfast is in room, or at the resort CS. Usually one of us will get it from the CS while the other is getting ready, saving time. Why waste 15 minutes of perfectly good ride time waiting in line in the park? Wait a minute, yes, everyone go eat breakfast in the parks. Take that extra 30 minutes to get to the rides in the morning, leave the lines shorter for me.

You got it..

We are all big big fans of breakfast foods here, and I honestly wish there were more QS options in the parks for breakfast. Sunshine seasons is always a good bet, and anything from Main Street Bakery is terrific. The only other breakfast option that is a always a hit, (although not IN a park) is WPE in DTD.

 

[NYwdwfan]

We too usually eat breakfast in the room - but QS waffles from Sleepy Hollow are a MUST for us!! We pass right by the insane lines at Main Street Bakery and go straight for waffle-y goodness in Liberty Square!! *YUM*

 

[Vader2112]

I wish there were more healthy choices as well. Can only eat pasteries so often.

I usually eat breakfast in the room. I did get breakfast once from the Sunshine Season in Epcot. And also a must for us on every vacation at least twice is the Cape May Character Breakfast at the Beach Club.

 

[LuLaSue]

We typically don't do breakfast in the park. We grab something small at the resort and then grab an eary QS for lunch.

 

[zurgandfriend]

As other have stated Main Street Bakery, other wise we do a breakfast at Kona Cafe and Grand Floridian Cafe.

 

[Mukta]

I either do a nice TS breakfast like Kona or Kouzzina or I grab a pastry from the Beach Club Marketplace and eat it while I wait for a bus. I like to make rope drop and hit the ground running. Stopping to eat ruins that for me.

 

[tracyandalex]

If we don't have a TS ADR for breakfast we usually just eat at the resort. We are also late risers though so the food court often isn't too packed by the time we get there.

 

[Phonedave]

We are DVC and when we are there with kids there are 5 of us so we have a 1BR with a kitchen.

We also do not care for the WDW Nescafe.

We always make coffee in the room. If we are not planning on eating breakfast in the parks, someone (me - I am almost always the first up) will go to the Resort QS and bring back the breakfast order while the kids and the other gets ready. We do 1 or 2 restaruant breakfasts - maybe CP or the Resort TS. Sometimes we also just make something in the room - toast, somtimes cerial. I will stop once at the MS Bakery for a cinnimon roll, but then I am forced to drink their nasty coffee.

We typically grab a very fast breakfast in the resort food court (or sometimes the kids & I just eat cereal in the room on early EMH days). We ALWAYS make rope drop, but we would never leave for the parks, though, without having eaten something - particularly my hubby who gets a sugar imbalance if he doesn't have some protein first thing in the morning. We'll get up as early as necessary to eat before leaving.
