character breakfast

[Jenn]

Which character breakfast would you recommend for my 5yr.old daughter...Cinderella Castle or the Princess Breakfast at Epcot?

Cinderalla castle is always hard to get reservations for.

character breakfast again

If we had reserevations for both which is better? What is the difference between the two? THe characters? the food? the atmosphere? Thanks !

I would say the Castle would be better just for the atmosphere. The one that's held at the restaurant Akerhaus is served family style.

Though I haven't been to the one at Epcot, we did just do Cindy's Castle a couple of weeks ago. You can't beat having breakfast in the CASTLE!

The food was pre-plated and awesome - in fact, it was my DH's favorite meal during our vacation.

You might want to try one of the classic character breakfasts like Chef Mickeys or Ohana. This way she can get to see the fab 4 characters.

Judging by how hard it is to actually get a place in the castle for breakfast - then I would say that the castle is the better.

Having done both, recently, I would definitely reccommend the Castle.

If you can book the castle, do it. You must call at 6:59 am eastern time, 60 days out to be able to book it. It is near impossible to get it any other way.

I have been very fortunate and have been able to get it 9 out of our last 10 visits. My girls, now ages 6 and 8 LOVE IT! To them, no trip is complete without it.

We are doing both during our vext trip, but I know the castle will remain a favorite with us.

33 days and counting!

I definitely recommended the Crystal Palace.

The Castle is actually becoming a little easier to book now that you need the credit card to reserve it. Before the CC system people would call and get reservations and then sell them, use them as gifts for clients (travel agents), or other things.

If you don't get Cinderella's:


Chef Mickeys. I think it would be better to sit in the family area if you can. If you do Chef Mickeys you won't be sorry -- guaranteed.


Crystal Palace is great. Wonderful atmosphere for adults, too. Winnie the Pooh characters. You'll likely get seats even without PS, especially if you go at a slower time of year.

I think I have to throw my vote for the Castle. I havent done the one in EPCOT as of yet but nothing can beat dining in the Castle. As previously stated ressies for that location are EXTREMELY tough to get although I have been able to do it several times. It takes patience persistance and flexibility on what day you will be eating there!!!! Start at the first day you will be able to make breakfast and call for each day after until you get it!!! That is usually my strategy!!! Bring a Camera and video if you own one, you wont be sorry!! Good luck, Belle

The castle is really good but really hard to get into. I've read on WDWIG that there is a new Cinderella breakfast (or maybe dinner) at 1900 Park Fare at the GF. It has Cindy and the Prince, Lady Tremaine, Drizzella, Anastacia, Suzy and Perla. Sounds good to me. I'm going to look into it and try it in January. We always like to try the new character meals.

Just found the Cinderella DINNER thing again on Mousesavers. Sorry I thought it was a breakfast!!! Still sounds good to me. Hope you have a great trip. All the character breakfasts and other meals are fun.

Cinderella's castle is definitely our pick. The food is much better and the environment speaks for itself. I also thought the character intervention was much better at the castle.

:veryconfu

I don't think the word "intervention" means what you think it means....

 

[bt909]

you're right - interaction is a better word.

Sorry.

Cindy's castle rocks!:slurp: The characters there really take the extra time with each table and the theme there is the best...as stated before. It is very hard to book. Also, keep Chef Mickey's in mind. It gets the whole family involved.:slurp:

27 days and counting.:sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy:

Depends on which characters she wants to have visit. I recently did Donalds Breakfastasaurus in Animal Kingdom with just adults. We had Mickey, Pluto, Donald, and Goofy (the FAB FOUR)! Also, everyone who was selected for the 4 p.m. Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade, ourselves included, was at this breakfast.

Don't fret over this one too much, though. Your 5 yo will enjoy whichever you choose.
