Character Meal Suggestions

[Deb luvs Disney]

We're going to Disney World in June with our 2 kids ages 8 and 5. We have had character breakfasts in the past at O'Hana and Chef Mickeys, but I would like to hear about other peoples' favorties. I'd like to do a breakfast and lunch/dinner. I'm actually not sure if Character lunches are available (except at the Crystal Palace in MK).

Also, has anyone ever heard about the ice cream social with the characters where you can enjoy ice cream sundaes :slurp: while visiting with characters?? Where is it?

Let me know your favorites - Thanks!

Can't wait for June!!! :sohappy: :sohappy:

Hi there!

We have only done Character meals at Chef Mickey's we've done breakfast and dinner there and have always enjoyed it. We've never done the ice cream social but I believe it is at the Garden Grill in the Land Pavillion at Epcot. If I am wrong, hopefully someone here will correct me.

If you have girls, they might enjoy breakfast at Cinderella's Castle or the princess breakfast at Epcot (I think in Norway). However, I hear the Cinderella breakfast is hard to get PS for.

I hope this helps. Enjoy your trip in June!! We'll be going in August!:sohappy:

we went to animal kingdom and donald breakfastosaurus at the restaurantosaurus and loved it!!! Also liberty tree tavern has a great one and i suggest booking a later time (close to the end) if u want lots of character exposure

I love character meals..........if your children like the Pooh character...1900 Park Fare at the Grand Floridian has an excellent buffet character meal & I've heard they have a nice breakfast as well with Mary Poppins though I've never been. The Liberty Tree is lots of fun as well....family style meal served at the table & the characters dressed up in Revolutionary War type costumes. There is a nice breakfast at the Beach Club as well with Admiral Goofy & the gang. Have a great time whatever you decide to do. Can't wait to do our character dining in Oct/Nov. :sohappy: :sohappy:

The ice cream social is at the Garden Grill in Epcot. It's around $7 a person and you get a large ice cream sundae type dessert. It's expensive for ice cream but cheap for character dining!

We enjoyed it. Mickey, Pluto, Chip and Dale were there.

Our favorites are Cinderella's and Chef Mickey's. Both delicious and great character interaction. Have fun!

We liked Breakfastosaurus in Animal Kingdom. It was a great Character Breakfast.

OK - three of our favourites:-
MK - Crystal Palace for breakfast with Pooh, Tigger (watch those hands :lol: ), Eeyore and Piglet - an excellent way to start off the day.
MK - Liberty Tree Tavern for evening meal with Chip & Dale, Goofy etc - we did it last year for the first time and thought it was excellent.
EPCOT - Garden Grill for evening meal with Chip & Dale, Mickey etc. Again agreat place for characters but the meal is not the best.

My top 5

Here is a list of my gotta eat at top 5:
5. Crystal Palace (MK) - winnie the pooh and friends
4. 1900 park fare (Grand Floridian) - Marrie Poppins and Alice in Wonderland
3. Liberty Tree Tavern (MK) - Minnie, Chip and Dale, Pluto
2. Garden Grill (EPcot) - Mickey, Minnie, Chip, Dale
1. CHEF MICKEY (Contemporary Resort) - Goofy, Max, Chip and Dale, Pluto, MICKEY, MINNIE, and many others unannounced

numbers 1 2 3 are m ultimate favorites

Garden Grill has all 3 meals as character meals. I usually get there witha priority seating request, go down stairs and get a f ast pass for the boat ride then go back and eat, then ride the boat, then MISSION SPACE!!!!!!!!:drevil:

Our favorite breakfast alas is no more, Hollywood and Vine at MGM, Minnie, Goofy, Chip, Dale, Pluto, plus great food. Liberty Tree dinner was delicious and well as fun characters. 1900 Park Faire for breakfast and dinner again, great food and fun characters.

buffets

We especially enjoy the Cape May Cafe Dinner Buffet at the Beach Club, (if u like ur seafood, of course! ). They have a great selection of all american food as well. Although the dessert bar is very good, the main focus are the seafood dishes -du jour.
The breakfast buffet is good, with Goofy and Minnie and co.
The best dessert bar at a buffet is to be found at Boma at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Absolutely DIVINE.Try the bread pudding with vanilla sauce.
We find the Crystal Palace a good choice. A wide selection and unlike the other places mentioned, you get to meet and greet with Winnie!!
