{Disney} Day 6 - A Crystal Palace Luncheon

Crystal Palace is a table service restaurant in Magic Kingdom featuring table to table appearances by Winnie the Pooh and friends (Piglet, Eeyore and Tigger.)  Food is served buffet style.  We've enjoyed our meals here in the past and because the girls prefer character meals right now, I searched and searched for an open ADR and was lucky to eventually find one for lunch.  This restaurant is fairly popular, which is evidenced by the lines to check-in and all the guests waiting to be seated.  If you're looking for a character meal at lunchtime in Magic Kingdom, Crystal Palace and Cinderella's Royal Table are your only choices.

Eeyore, Allie's favorite, was first to visit our table.

Followed by Piglet.

The buffet isn't huge but we all felt that it was decent, especially for a buffet.  There was enough of a selection to keep everyone satisfied.

(It looks like I color coordinated my food.)

Tigger was the last character to stop by our table.  He tried to steal Allie's Minnie ears, which they all found to be hysterical.

For some reason, the girls' facial expressions in all of these pictures crack me up.

Up next - Our last afternoon at Magic Kingdom.  How much can we fit it?

You got some great shots! I love Emily's face in the second photo with Eeyore. The laughing photos crack me up too!

Great pics! I am really enjoying all your trip posts, they are making me want to plan a trip to Disney with my 3 year old for next year!

In your experience, approximately how long do the character meals take?

Hi Beth - I would say on average an hour and 15 mins.
