just rang to PS this for our next trip and it isn't "up on the system yet" :(
This is supposed to be a 90 day in advance booking and it is less than this so........I am going to have another look at the menus for a breakfast that I can use the FITS vouchers with :shrug:

We were just at this character breakfast last Friday...and truthfully, we were not all that impressed. We enjoyed Chef Mickey's on our last trip much better. The food itself was ok, but the selection wasn't that diverse. As for character interaction...they breezed through each table once and then disappeared. I truely felt pushed to *eat up then get out*.

If you are dead set on trying this one, I wouldn't worry too much about not getting a PS. I didn't call 'til Thursday late afternoon and had my choice of times for Friday morning.

Hi
I had heard that not all the restaurants/WDW employees/someone had managed to update all the systems to accomodate the 90 day PS rule even though it has been around for some time. I think I read this on the PS Calculator site, but I'm sorry I didn't pay much attention as my lovely TA has sorted all my PSs for me. Their advice was to try again, and again until someone can book it for you.

Hope that helps a little.

PS We did that breakfast last April (2003) and really enjoyed it, not rushed at all, good choice of food.

We did this breakfast in May, and enjoyed it, but not as much as other character meals we've done. I did like the food (breakfast pizza, fritattas, krispy kreme, fruit, and the regular bacon, eggs, stuff). Like Figment said, the characters did not spend a lot of time with you, but because it was not crowded, I felt I could take our time with our meal as DS can sometimes take forever to eat (little mouths do that sometimes). I don't think you'll have any problem getting PS closer to your travel date. I think it's worth doing if you plan on having breakfast in the park that day anyway.

I chose to eat here because it was inside an actual Disney Park. We will be visiting all 4 parks - New Year's Eve we have a PS for CP - wanted to eat at a different location to this.
Not sure if there is a character breakfast at MGM or Epcot :shrug:

I know MGM doesn't have a character breakfast. I think Epcot doesn't either.

We went to this one a couple of years ago. The food was good but the character interaction left a lot to be desired. We were also waiting for an hour after finishing eating to see Mickey and Pluto.

hey red we did that aladin one , it was the first character breakfast we had ever done , it was where the bear in the big blue house is now , i think , and we thought it was fantastic.
my son was absolutly obsesed wit haladin at the time and the fact that he just came up to him and put his arm round him for a photo made his holiday so good .
but wasnt Jafar frigtening !ben was really worried when he came over and just stood and stared at him !
oh and jasmin was quite nice too!!!

Epcot has the Princess Breakfast in Norway. I was very impressed with the amount of characters there 2 years ago when we went. I have a PS this year too since I couldn't get CRT. The food although it was not a large selection was wonderful we were not rushed and the Princess's all posed for pictures and signed autographs for both kids we were not rushed at all.

Truth be told...I didn't even see any Krispy Kreme doughnuts...can't believe no one in my crew found them if they were to be had.

Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, potato casserole, fresh fruit and bread basket, served family style, with french toast sticks for the kids.


Yes it is still available and great for the little ones the like Princess's or the older ones too like the guys, lol, but like I said there is not a huge variety in food but it is wonderful and they are always willing to bring you more!!

We've done the Breakfastasaurus twice now, and it is the only one where I've felt pressured to eat and get out. You only see the characters once - and DON'T be away from the table when they come by. You won't get a second chance. At least at the other character meals you get more than one chance to see them.
