"We only made our Priority seating reservation half an hour before we were seated at lunch, I was expecting a much longer wait. Our table was visited by Pooh, Tigger, Piglet and Eeyore so I was really excited (much more than my 10year old!)The lunchtime buffet was very good as was the service I would recommend this restaurant to everyone. I shall definitely make a PS for breakfast the next time I visit MK." (7/03) Alison

"We just returned from our trip to Disney and after the great experience at Chef Mickey's, we decided to use P.S. and book at Crystal Palace for a late lunch. Wow! The buffet was amazing, there was so much to choose from and it would definitely please even the fussiest eaters! Our 2 yr old daughter loved the children's selections and especially the sundae bar. We were so full that we didn't even have an appetite for dinner. It was definitely worth the money and what a great way to see Winnie and the Gang. My family loved it and can't wait to get back!"

"For value for money The Crystal Palace is hard to beat. The characters are great and spend time signing and poseing for pictures. As the food is a help yourself buffet you can go up as many times as you dare! There are numerous choices of main,sweet,salad and childrens. Even with fussy eaters there is a choice for all..Go here early, eat loads then dont worry for the rest of the day!!" (05/03) Lisa Thompson

"We tried the Crystal Palace character lunch in Jan 2003 when we were there for our honeymoon. I found that a great deal as it is only one dollar more in comparison to the lunch. My hubby and I really enjoyed having the meal with the castle as the background. Character interactions were great and we really enjoyed the character landscape as well. We had so much food that we almost didn't have any appetite for the character dinner at Grand Floridian at night! I'd highly recommend this place, not only for dinner or breakfast, but for lunch as well!" (3/03) conniel_hk_2000@yahoo.ca

"We were at Disney in Jan 2002 with a group of disabled people and went to the breakfast with Pooh and the gang at Crystal Palace. The characters were just great and really took time with each person in our group and made them feel special. They took pictures with each of them and came to our table several times to visit with us. If you really want time with characters this is the breakfast to go to and it's one of the lowest costing. The all you can eat buffet is terrific and you do not go away hungry."

"We have enjoyed a holiday meal at crystal palace for the past two years (thanksgiving day 2000 and christmas day 2001) and have not been disappointed either time. We have had priority seating both times (a must - we saw so many people turned away because they were booked). Both times we have only had to wait maybe ten minutes to be seated. The service has been excellent both times. The characters are great (we all love the pooh characters). The food is excellent - like i said, we have been there for holiday meals, and they did not disappoint us! The children's buffet is a great idea - they can actually reach the items and serve themselves. We are going back to orlando dec. 28th thru jan 4th this year, and are planning on trying the character breakfast at crystal palace this year - the reviews we saw on your website have convinced us to try this! Thanks!" (8/02) Gaylynn Branham

"Our family actually started our first day in Disney with Breakfast at The Crystal Palace. What a great start to a fantastic day! We had priority seating and arrived 15minutes before our scheduled time and were taken right to our seats. Our little girls so loved visiting with Pooh and his friends. The food was fantastic! The breakfast lagasana was the favorite with the adults in my family and the kids loved Pigglet on their waffles although they were too exceited to eat. The service was excellent! They didn't miss a thing. Wonderfully delightful. I wouldn't miss doing it again. Except this time I my try dinner!" (4/02) Karen Price

"I visited The Crystal Palace with my older sister and my 2 year old nephew in early February of 2000. We enjoyed the dinner buffet, but the best part was it was not busy at all so we got lots of character interaction, which was wonderful being as Winnie the Pooh and gang are my favorite "Disney's" of all time!"

"I had Priority Seating for breakfast at 8:05am, and it was great to walk up Main Street with virtually no one else there! The wait to be seated was only around 5 minutes. There was a long queue for the buffet at first, probably as it had only just opened. The lines later on were minimal. The choice of food on offer was great, pancakes, fresh fruit, pastries, hot food. I'd highly recommend the breakfast lasagna, which consisted of pancakes, waffles, cream, bananas and peaches - delicious! Although it could be a bit sickly if you eat too much. Character interaction was good. Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet all visited my table once. It's a very big restaurant, so they didn't get round twice like at some character meals. Pooh was stood near the buffet, although he wasn't as friendly as he usually is. It's a lovely restaurant, very light and airy." (11/01) Joanne

"We went to the Crystal Palace Dinner Buffet in 6/2000 and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Our then 9 yr old has many pictures with each of the characters that our so special to look back on. We hope to go back in 2002 and enjoy it."

"We ate at the Crystal Palace for brekfast one moring and it was wonderful. The selection was delicious and the characters really made the meal wonderful. Pooh and friends not only were there to stand in line and see but they all came around to your table while you were eating. The one on one experience was great for the six year old we had with us. O.K. so it was great for the adults also." Adria-Missouri

"The Crystal Palace in the Magic Kingdom with Winnie the Pooh and gang the buffet breakfast is out of the world. Been there twice so far and going again in Sept. of 2000. Just seeing my 3 yr. old son's expressions is worth it all.  Chef Mickey is also Great!!!!!" gvmuir@home.com
