Yes I think so.We had a time getting in but on a day we went early,It was an EE day(I know they don't do it any more. [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img] )My sister and I walk up and ask for a table and got in.The view alone was worth it. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Ok, If you've never done it before, you eat big breakfasts, and you're really interested in getting autographs and pictures with the princesses and Fairy Godmother....then it is worth it. We enjoyed it the first time we did it, though we don't eat much at breakfast. The second time all we could think of (us parents, that is) was how much we were spending on it. The kids still liked it, but they hardly ate a thing (nor did we)...I wanted to ship the food to the starving kids in _______ (you name the country) [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]. How's that for an answer? If you have kids, just use your flex features for you and pay for the kids....save theirs for something else. The kids meals are not worth using up Flex features on. -HiddenMickey

Loved this!! We all thought it was great!! In fact its one of only 2 priority seating reservations I will be booking for our next trip!!!

We just did it on Nov 5 - by far the character breakfast with the most ambiance and we thought the food was darn good - can I please have one of those chocolate muffins right now! WOW! Belle, Cinderella, Snow White, Mary Poppins, and Prince Charming roamed the dining room and Fariy Godmother greeted us in the lobby. I think it's well worth it - you'll pay the same price I believe at any character breakfast.

One of the neatest things that we were able to do was to enter the park BEFORE any other patrons not holding PS. We got some SPECTACULAR pictures of the castle with not another soul in sight, including a lot of us in front of the castle with NO CROWDS! Guess that's one thing early entry cancellation provided us - a SUPER Christmas card photo - looks like we had the park to ourselves!!!

Go for it - it's worth it.

Thanks for your opinions guys! It help in making my decision. I did finally get a PS for Chef Mickeys and I heard that if you get on there late the food is old-is that true?
I was so glad to get one...

You'll really enjoy Chef Mickey's - you'll get to see all the classic characters and the food is quite good there, too. Don't know about the food being old - I can't imagine that with the sheer crowd size that it would be, but you never know. Enjoy!

I can't speak specifically for Cinderella's Character Breakfast, but can say that my family and I thoroughly enjoyed the character breakfast at Chef Mickey's and the Character lunch at the Crystal Palace a week ago. My sons are 6 and 2 and they very much enjoyed the entire thing, meeting the characters, the atmosphere, food, everything. The food was exceptional at both, which were both buffets - great great food, truly uncommon things at both, and great things that the kids (who can be a bit "mainstream" or "picky") enjoyed. Compared to eating at a restaurant for any other meal, these meals beat them in quality, quantity, entertainment and price!!!

Chef Mickey's is Mickey and friends, Crystal Palace is Pooh and friends. I understand that CRT is Cinderella and friends and also know that it is the most popular and hardest to get into. Plus you get to be in the castle!!!

I say go for it either there or at the places I mention.

Hi,

I can't imagine the food at Chef Mickey's being old, since they are constantly restocking the buffet as the food runs out. I have delicious omelets, french toast, pastry, fruit, and other yummy dishes, and ALL seemed very fresh.

It was the best breakfast on our trip!

Yummy

11:15 AM ? Is that for breakfast or lunch? Just curious ...

lil poohbear · 11-15-2001, 05:44 PM

The CM said the PS was for breakfast as they do not serve lunch. That is what she said anyway...

lil pooh,
That's wierd as we had lunch there and our PS were at 11:35. It was wonderful by the way, so if anyone can't get breakfast PS go for lunch. Even thought the characters are not around, the food is fabulous. Peter Pan and Captin Hook did make a few passes by our table outside the castle while we were dining.

**HiddenMickey** · 11-16-2001, 08:44 AM

Nala----she is going to eat at Chef Mickey's not Cinderella's.

I think you're right about Chef Mickey's not serving lunch. 11:15 must be one of the last breakfast seatings.

If you find the food to seem old, simply ask your server to have something fresh made up for you. -HiddenMickey
