Great pix. Princesses were not as lingering at our table this year and the food choices had been drastically cut down. We missed the biscuits and gravy. The staff was really kind to my husband who was very sick that morning (April 9, 2011). You can't beat the experience if you have girls and want to see the princesses without standing in line.

The breakfast was great with the cold bar and then hot breakfast, which was excellent. Our server who was from Norway explained the visits from the princesses to our table and then let us know again when they would start the visits, which kept my 10 year old from being too antsy. Before we left I felt like a princess do to the great service and the visits from the princesses, not to mention the princess parade.

We ate breakfast here in Nov 2010 and loved it. The food is not great, but it was good and there were plenty of choices. My 5 year old daughter loved it. She got to spend time with all of the princesses and the photo was very nice. This was a wonderful experience and a must-do for those with young daughters.

We daughter and I had ressies for 9:40 on Monday, March 21 to celebrate my birthday. We were called right away to stand in line to get a photo with Belle then seated immediately.
The server was awesome and always ready with drinks and plus remembered my birthday cupcake. The food was really good with the muffins and potatoes a definite highlight! I enjoyed it much better than the lunch menu.
The princesses included Belle, Snow White, Jasmin, Ariel and Cinderella. All were fabulous, friendly and totally in character. My daughter was so enchanted.
The only downside was the quality of the Belle photo. Neither my daughter nor I were looking at the camera. After I saw them, I noticed that Belle and the photographer were waiting for the next shift of customers. They graciously took another photo of us with my camera.
PLEASE give yourself plenty of time to get to the restaurant. I'm a local so I've grown up on WDW and I totally miscalculated how long it would take us. We got to the parking gate at 9:00 am and literally had to jog to get to the restaurant at 9:43 am.
We will definitely be back for breakfast!

My DD's 10 & 7 would like to act as though they are not into princesses anymore, but put a princess in a gown and ask them to take a picture and they are all smiles! My little one was celebrating her birthday and received a card with all the princess' signature and would not leave until Mary Poppins came out, she signed the card but was not there that day! Even the 10 y/o popped up each time a princess came to the table. We received a complimetary photo of the girls with Princess Aurora, nice touch! Food just okay. we had already had a breakfast two days before. eggs, bacon etc. only difference a nice cheese selection and smoked salmon offering. Little princesses sure to enjoy!

We visited in Jan of 2010 and again in Feb of 2011. We loved it just as much (if not more) than our 1st time. This is the BEST place for princess dining. Beats out the castle by a million! The princess parade was a huge hit for my 5 year old (Cinderella asked her if she would join her in a parade and took her by the hand...totally made her day!). Food is fresh and fast. I would recommend that anyone who loves princesses makes a reservation for this as soon as you book your trip. That being said we've only every been for breakfast since it's traditional food. If you're not adventurous eaters make sure you book breakfast!

Went to this breakfast twice during our vacation. Once with a party of 12 people, (entire family)once with just my husband and 8 year old daughter. We love it. Best character breakfast,good food and good character interaction. Getting a picture a plus. We go to this breakfast yearly, and it has never failed to be wonderful. Like it so much that we decided to introduces our relatives to this gem. They love it too now. Only thing is they got rid of the rice pudding they use to serve at breakfast, my husband is crushed.

My daughter LOVED it! She even ate, which is saying something. A hot plate came to the table with scrambled eggs, hash brown potatoes, bacon and sausage. The buffet had muffins and pastries, smoked salmon (very good!) and pickled herring along with assorted fruit. The princesses paraded with the girls around the restaurant and we got a picture with Belle (which was complimentary, unlike Chef Mickey) My son even had fun and a good breakfast.

I treated my college aged princess to this breakfast and it was one of the highlights of the trip. The food was great even for the 2 of us who are vegetarians - fruit was wonderful. The waitstaff was efficient and friendly, and the princesses very attentive. We love this character dining event and will return.

We dined here in January for breakfast with a 8:25 reservation and were seated within 15 minutes. The cold buffet was nice and we all enjoyed mixing our own granola and having some fresh fruit and cheeses.
The princesses were great and we got to see Belle at the door, then Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Ariel, and Cinderella while eating. The princesses each had something fun to say and took pictures and signed autpgraphs. There was a Princess Parade around the resturant which my daughter loved. We all agreed the food was good, especially the potato dish and the sausage. I would have enjoyed the eggs cooked a little bit more, but I am little bit egg picky.
We found the waitstaff to be nice and were quick to bring more coffee and fresh plates. They also were sweet and brought out a cupcake and candle for my daughter as she was celebratng a birthday while we were at Disney. Overall we all enjoyed the breakfast and thought it was fun being in EPCOT before the general public.

I ate breakfast here with my family on Friday 1-21-2011. We were seated within five minutes of arriving and went right to our picture with Belle. She was excellent and took a lot of time with my two girls. She was engaging and patient and really made the girls feel special. She took a picture with just the girls and then the whole family.
We were seated right after our picture and introduced to our server. She was very attentive and polite, but seemed a little overwhelmed. When they seat at character breakfasts they rotate the seating arangement around the room so the waiting staff has an area that is either empty or completely full. We were one of the first groups to sit in her area and watched her go from having a couple of tables to being full. The food is served family style so there is not a lot of waiting for your meal and a lot of the families started eating about the same time which created some issues for her as she was trying to keep up with the requests for ketchup and coffee and juice etc. She did a great job and I commend her for it.
The princesses came out in this order - Aurora, Cinderella, Snow White, and finally Ariel. They were all beautifully dressed and very nice to the girls. They also didn't let my teenage son get away with sitting in the corner. They made sure he got up for pictures and hugs. Which he reluctantly did, but deep down I think he didn't mind as much as he pretended too. My only complaint was with Cinderella. I don't know if she was having a bad day, but her interaction with all three of my kids lasted less than a minute. She barely stood still to take a picture with the kids which was frustrating to me because of the cost of the breakfast and the fact that she is the favorite of both my girls. They didn't seem to notice and were just thrilled with seeing her, but I definitely noticed and thankfully the other princesses more than made up for it.
The menu was basic breakfast items including a selection of fruits and a cold bar with Norwegian influenced fish selections. Plus the hot meal with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and a really interesting potato dish with cheese on top. It was kind of like cheesy home fries, and even though I am not a home fry kind of person I tried them and thought they were very good. We received two 8x10 pictures and 8 4x6's and they came out really good. It was a very good experience for us and I would highly recommend it.

We were a party of 10 (4 adults, 6 kids) and booked a surprise breakfast for the 7 yr old princess in our group (all the rest are boys). Our little one was so excited when she walked around the corner to see her favorite, Belle, waiting to greet her and Belle was so sweet signing her book and posing for a picture.
The meal was great as well with the cold buffet and then the hot food served family style. The two 13 yr old boys ate three plates of bacon!
The other princesses, Ariel, Aurora, Cinderella and Snow White came around and signed books and posed for pictures. Nobody was rushed and twice the princesses paraded through the room with all the little ones. Great way to see the princesses without having to wait in lines.

We have been here several times in the past and have always enjoyed the food, characters, and *usually* the wait staff checking on us and such for drinks, more food, etc. This time was an exception. We saw our waiter at the beginning of breakfast when he brought our drinks and literally did not see him again until he brought the bill.
He never refilled our drinks or coffee - never even asked until he handed the bill to me and then asked if I needed more coffee (uh yeah - like 20 minutes ago, lol). He didn't bring our food (though I know from our previous experience here that sometimes happens) and he definitely never came and asked if we wanted more.
It just bugged me that with the Disney Dining plan that they will not run the credit swipe for the dining credit/bill until AFTER you tell them how much you want to tip. It's just awkward. We solved this later by carrying enough cash to cover tips for poor service (and we'd just say we're paying the tip by cash instead of charging back to the room) because they didn't need to know how much to charge if you're leaving cash. I just wish we had figured it out BEFORE here because we tipped the guy $12 to bring us drinks once and our bill. He literally spent about a minute with us for $12. Sigh.

My sister and I went here for breakfast one morning. I had saved this to do on our last day and we were both excited about seeing the princesses. I know we are both in our 20s but this was still our first time to Disney. 
We had to wait for about 20 mins even though we got there before our reservation time. We quickly got our picture taken with Belle and then taken to our seats. I can see why they did it, but that doesn't mean we weren't any less disappointed. They sat us at a two-top right next to the buffet station. So the whole time there were crowds of people next to us. 
Even with that, this was still one of our favorite meals for the trip. That day there was Aurora, Cinderella, Ariel, and Snow White. The princesses stop and chat with every table. They almost all asked us about our "princes" haha. It was cute. The food was about average. But I mean it's typical American breakfast. The photo was delivered right before our check and had 4 4x6s as well as the 8x10. We left full and happy! I can't wait to go back in March with my Mom.

We ate here on Dec 12th. We really liked the food. The buffet had some really yummy options, including fruit and pastries to keep my DD5 happy. The hot food was average breakfast food and was ok, with the exception of the potato casserole which was really yummy. Our waitress was busy but attentive and brought us another plate of hot selections as soon as we emptied the first.
The princesses all were attentive to my DD, especially Cinderella. DD has brought a picture she had drawns for Cindy. The other princesses were Ariel, Snow White, and Aurora, with Belle as the "hostesses".
We would definitely eat here again. A suggestion for others as I read the comments from folks that left hungry, the hot plates of food are also unlimited as is the buffet so if you want more just ask your server, ours offered but if she has not we would have requested more. Seconds of the potato casserole are a must!
