Tomorrow is reservation day... Illuminations view restaurant and Where will Tigger be in Feb.?

We are taking our daughter for our 2nd annual 3rd Birthday WDW visit in Feb. I am making reservations in the AM at the start of the new 6 month rule... can you please tell me where is the best restaurant to view Illumintations from and what time dinner reservation should I try for (remember 3 year old in tow). Also I see that Crystal Palace is closing for renovations Jan -Feb 15 2010... where will we be able to revisit Tigger and Pooh?

For Illuminations, I've heard Rose & Crown is an excellent location, but they have a limited outdoor area so it is not guaranteed you'd be able to get out there. Someone else will come along who knows more about that & the timing.

As far as Tigger & Pooh, you'll have plenty of opportunites to see them at character meet & greets in the parks (in Epcot, they're in England). But during CP's refurb, they'll be at Liberty Tree Tavern FYI: Liberty Tree Tavern Jan- mid-Feb

I'm hoping to catch Pooh and Co. at LTT too in Feb.

I don't know, that with a 3 year old, I would worry so much about a restaurant with a view for Epcot...I would probably get a CS and just find a good seat to camp out at.

Hi and welcome to the boards!

Tigger will be at the Liberty Tree Tavern then, as the Crystal Palace will be closed for refurbishment. For IllumiNations, your best choice would be the Rose and Crown.

it's my understanding that LTT will be more of the classic characters that were at LTT originally: Minnie, Goofy, Chip & Dale (I think Pluto was missing from the list)

Tigger is routinely with Pooh and Eeyore in the back of the Toy Soldier at the UK pavilion and I believe he should also be available near the Pooh playground in MK

I made an ADR for LTT for Feb tonight and the CM told me that the Pooh Characters will be relocated to there for the duration of the CP refurb.

Just wanted to add that our favorite place to meet Tigger, Pooh, and Eeyore (besides CP, of course) is at AK. They're in the shade and the line is never long!

We went to Rose & Crown, booked our ADR 45 - 60 min before Illuminations. We didn't get outside seating, but just before Illuminations start, your server will excort you outside to their patio for viewing, and will hold your dinner. With us the timing was great as we were in-between courses.
