Any age would enjoy this one - you can't help but smile!
We like to book for lunch, as they have a nice range of food but it's not as expensive as in the evening.
The Characters all come around to your table, and your server will make sure that you get to meet them all. We have only had to wait if the parade is on, as the characters appear in the parade, so they have to leave the restaurant.
These buffets are great for kids as they don't have to wait for food to be prepared, and they can try lots of things, so if they aren't sure if they will like something they can try it, and if not, they can have something else.
There is a great selection of food for all tastes and you can have fried eggs/omlettes/special Mickey pancakes made to order as well as the huge buffet selection. The only downside to having things made to order is that it can take quite a bit of time and you might miss the characters.
We have been a few times so are not too bothered about meeting the characters which is just as well as last time we only saw Eeyore- apparently it can take up to 90 minutes for them to get right round, so best not be in a hurry.
The food is excellent we had breakfast here on our first morning plenty of fruit cereal, scrambled egg waffles sausages, bacon as well as other selections and you can even have an omlette made up by the chef.
Then our last day we had lunch which was excellent. There is also a kids section as well for Breakfast lunch and dinner.
I would very much recommend this restaurant.
We had a lunch buffet and it was a welcome rest from the heat of the Park.
The food was excellent There is a big range with something for everyone and plenty of children friendly food even for a fussy child.
The character interaction was one of the best. We saw Winnie. Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet. They all came round several times and interacted really well and were happy to pose for lots of phots.
The service was one of the best. The server explained everything to us and refilled our drinks regularly. She was very friendly and din't try to rush us.
This is definetly top of our list for our next visit.
