Which Character Dining?

We are staying off site and would like to do a character dining so that the kids can meet all the ‘main characters’.
Where would people suggest? Inventions or Plaza Gardens?
I thought Plaza Gardens only did breakfast, but I can only book from midday onwards, so maybe that’s not the case 🤷🏼

Plaza Gardens only has characters at breakfast. You can’t book the character breakfast at 60 days ahead in the same way you can for all the other restaurants.

If you pay in full up front you can add it to your hotel booking and secure a reservation. Otherwise it’s a case of booking it 3 days ahead on the phone or in resort whilst you are there.

If price is important, then Plaza Gardens breakfast is a great budget way to meet lots of the main characters.

If money isn’t so important, my vote would be Inventions. We enjoyed both, but Inventions was much more relaxed. The tables were better spaced, much more choice of food, the characters spent longer at each table and often interacted with each other and guests while moving between tables. The characters all came back to us more than once, and it felt like they had much more freedom to do their own thing than at PG.

Thank you, that’s great. I think that’s made the decision for us!

Just be mindful that Inventions brunch is also about 3 times the price of the Plaza Gardens breakfast (99 Euros vs. 35 Euros per person). Also while Inventions is relaxed be prepared to be there for around 3 hours to see all the characters, which has happened to me on multiple occasions.

Does anyone know if Inventions and/or ADC offer different character experiences based on when you dine, i.e. afternoon or evening? Or is it generally consistent in terms of number of characters?
