Epcot advice please!

Hello!
Our second trip to WDW coming up this August, but our first trip to Epcot (we bumped it of our itinerary last time in favour of more days at Universal! ). Anyway, planning on making this the first place we visit this year. Can you recommend where would be good for Breakfast either at Epcot or close by? We're staying at Windsor Hills. Was thinking of Garden Grill - thought it might be a fun start to the holiday but as we're paying OOP I'm kind of loathed to pay adult prices for my daughter at the buffet (she's 11) and eats like a sparrow (a vegetarian sparrow at that!).

Also, can you advise how long it takes to park up and get into the park from the parking booths?

Any advice greatly appreciated as always x

There's a new character dining location opening at Trattoria al Forno on the Boardwalk.

It will feature Disney couples (e.g. Rapunzel and Flyn). It looks like it could be a fun start to a day. You could then get into Epcot at International Gateway.

If you do the want a sit down meal Starbucks does pastries ect. Personally I would have breakfast at you villa then a snack mid morning.

Sunshine Seasons is our family favourite at Epcot. You can get everything from a snack to a full meal.

Allow about 20 minutes from the car park to the entrance on an average day.

I'd do this . Via Napoli is wonderful for lunch and the pizzas Devine and quiet large so very easy to share and would be cheaper than the breakfasts. Lots of nice lunch places in Epcot x

If daughter not a huge eater then I wouldn't book Garden Grill OOP. I'd go with Starbucks or head to France in World Showcase for Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie where you'll admittedly spend a bit more than Starbucks but will enjoy a fantastic selection of breakfast pastries.
