We thought this was one of the best buffets. We had yummy omlets and the french toast was divine. We got all four characters within 20 minutes and once again wonderful Disney Staff.We plan to try lunch next !! Really good food and wonderful fun for Pooh fans...

We had breakfast here on 11/10. It was not crowded at all. The food was all very good. They should have more people at the omelette station. My husband waited over 15 minutes to get an omelette, because a father, who had cut in front of him (you can't get away from rudeness even at Disney), and proceeded to order special orders of chocolate chip pancakes for his kids as well as omelettes for his entire party (who were not in line with him). But while he was tied up there, the rest of us had a lovely breakfast with the characters.

WE WERE HERE FOR OUR FIRST MORNING IN THE PARK. IT'S A GREAT WAY TO START YOUR VACATION. CHARACTERS ARE FUN AND I LOVE WHEN THEY PARADE AROUND THE RESTAURANT TO POOH'S THEME SONG. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL AND OLD FASHIONED FEELING PLACE. FOOD IS OK-BUT I GO FOR THE ATMOSPHERE. WILL GO AGAIN ON MY NEXT TRIP.

Where have the Pooh bear waffles gone?
|

Can't really mark a point down for the loss of my Pooh and Piglet waffles but seeing Mickey Waffles here just broke my heart.
The other food was excellent as usual. Freshly made omelettes even better than I remember them.
Lots of fruit, pastries, normal cooked breakfast and the two varieties of breakfast potatoes were yum.
This place never grows boring for us. We only booked our holiday a month before and can't believe we got in for breakfast on our third morning.
Hoping to be back same time next year and this is a must.

Ate here with advanced reservations and got seated within 10 minutes. The food was your typical American breakfast fare and all was great. Got to see all the Winnie-the-Pooh characters except for Eeyore because he took too long  Otherwise it was nice being able to walk down Main Street USA before the park opens, they even have the photopass photographers ready so you're able to get a professional shot with hardly anyone in the background!

I think we've been to the Crystal Palace for breakfast one too many times in a short time span. The buffet is getting a little "old". We are actually not there for the characters as much as for the location and the smoked salmon, hmmmm. Still, I think they could "refresh" the menu a bit for us regular guests.

We tend to not do character meals (our kid is old), but I love Winnie the Pooh. This was perfect for me. The food was very good, good choices. The tables were a little close together and it was a bit noisy.

This is probably our favourite location - it really is a beautiful place. The service has always been good and the food lovely, with lots of different choices.
To me, this is one of the 'must do' Character meals.
The characters can be a little slow coming round but it just gives me more time to relax and enjoy an unhurried meal.

DH and I ate here 9/16. We had an 805 ADR. It is nice getting to take picture's with an almost empty Main Street. We did not have to wait very long to be seated. DH and I had been to the buffet before so we knew what all to expect. It is a good thing too, because our server was pretty much nonexistant. We saw him when he brought out our drinks, when he brought one drink refill (after the drinks had been sitting empty for about 10 minutes) and then when he brought our check and asked how we were going to pay for the tip. I understand servers are put into an uncomfortable position when it comes to the gratuity, but this gentleman was rude. We were glad we were not a party of 6 where gratuity is automatically added to your check. We had come prepared to leave at least a 20% tip, but ended up leaving a lot less than that.
The food was very good. I love the Puffed French Toast. We were able to see all of the characters and watch the kids in the parade. That was fun to see. On our next trip we will gladly return to Crystal Palace, because we have had excellent service here before. This just was not one of those times.

This is a beautiful restaurant. The service was excellent and it allowed us to get to Magic Kingdom early and walk down Main Street with hardly any crowds. The service was very good. The characters were slow moving. We were waiting around for some of them. Finally we left before we got to see Eyore but my kids are older so they were ok with it. We were there over an hour. I think in that time, they should all come through. Food is the standard buffet fare but it was all fresh and well replenished when necessary.

The Pooh & Friends character breakfast is my favourite Character Breakfast in Disney. We were there on September 11th and it was our 4th visit. We have celebrated 3 birthdays there. The restaurant is so pretty and bright. Because of the glass structure, you can take great pictures with the Characters because of the light that pours in. The food here is good too, some of the usual breakfast buffet fare, but they offer Pooh's Puffed French Toast at the kiddies buffet that is amazing. I haven't seen this anywhere else in Disney. For my fellow Ontario travellers, this is like a giant Tiny Tom's donut from the CNE. People of all ages love Winnie the Pooh, and we found this character dining experience at the Crystal Palace to be one of the most endearing and whimsical experiences in MK. I see the CP will be closed for reburbishment in early 2010, so now we'll have to visit again! The only down side, as with many of the larger Character Meals is the noise when the restaurant is full.

This was our breakfast for our second to last day and I am glad we did it! Aside from my son telling the characters to "Get away!" it was a very positive experience. The characters were not intrusive...you could watch them without having to interact with them (my son is only two). The food was amazing and i don't even particularly like breakfast food! My husband loved it because we rarely eat breakfast out as a result! The selection was unrivaled! Definitely a must do part of Disney!

We had ADR for 9/18. Food was good, lots of choices, Pooh's breakfast lasagna was interesting. Kids loved the French toast. Loved the characters, we saw Pooh and Tigger twice. Great place to see the Winnie the Pooh characters at one spot.

Visited 9.15.09: Always a great buffet. The character interaction is wonderful, they visit each table. Serivce is good. It nice to walk down Main Street before the park opens when it is empty and quiet, so grab an early seating.

My husband and I ate here on the last day of our anniversary trip, Sept. 19. The food was excellent, as usual. The cheesy potatoes were fantastic. I had two servings. Our server was a bit unattentive, but I forgave him when he showed up with our check and handed over a 25th anniversary card signed by Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet! Also he had a cupcake with two candles in it and actually clapped for us when we blew it out. So his tip went right back up to 20%!
We only got our picture taken with Eeyore because we wanted the characters to have more time for the families with kids. We had a lot of fun and a very very good ending to our week at Disney.
