Crystal Palace Description

Set in the heart of the Magic Kingdom, the Crystal Palace is an upscale but completely kid-friendly dining experience set within a Southern-style mansion. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner seatings are available. The sightings of Winnie the Pooh and the gang from the 100 Acre Wood will thrill the kids, but the impressive spread of family favorites will satisfy parents (and picky eaters, too).

Planning Notes

Book it. Plan a Crystal Palace character dining experience well in advance (up to 180 days ahead) of coming to Walt Disney World.
Have your camera ready. The characters come to each table taking photos with diners.
Dress down. While the atmosphere is upscale, your clothes don't need to be. Virtually everyone wears shorts.
Think chunky. Have your camera and autograph book ready. Large, chunky pens are easiest for the characters to hold.

Reviews of Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace- a Terrific Place- Not to be Missed!

By Michellenfun May 30, 2009

What we loved:
This is a FABULOUS place to not only eat, but enjoy family time!

What we didn't love:
My family loves the food, the fun and lively characters, and the fun!

Crystal Palace should be on your list of MUST-DO's for your vacation. Whether you are vacationing with or without children, and not matter what ages your children are, this is modertaley priced restaraunt that offers so much more than food!
Winnie characters meander about while guests enjoy a plentiful buffet. These characters are not look-only. In fact, they interact wonderfully with everyone! This past time we went, my 12 year old son had his back to the main part of the restraunt. Tigger came over and crouched down to my son Nathan, and stared at him from behind. Entraced by his food, Nathan paid no attention. But----the rest of the restraunt did! We all watched as Tigger slowly moved from behind Nathan to his side, and as Nathan had no clue at all! Finally, Nathan saw Tigger, gasped and nearly jumped! We all laughed along with Nathan and much of the on-looking restraunt, and enjoyed Tigger's trick.
This is just one example of the fun my family, including a 8, 12, 13, and 16 your old son has experienced! As we have gone many times over the years, I have experienced the Crystal Palace with all ages of kids, and even without them. Each time the experience is different, and treasured! Please make this a part of your vacation- I can't wait to go again....and again....Read More

What we loved:
Breakfast there is amazing.

What we didn't love:
The tables are a little close but, It wasn't too bad.

The breakfast buffet was excellent. Pretty much everything you think of when you eat breakfast. Cereal, waffles, eggs, meats, fruits ect... The menu does change frequently but it still stays pretty traditional. Last time we ate there you could get custom pancakes! Yum!
The characters were great too. They came around at least once and stopped to play and take photos. I was a little annoyed by parents that were letting their kids follow and pester the characters (It wasn't fair to the well behaved children.) but, Disney cast members tried to make sure every one got a fair turn with the gang from 100 Acre Wood.Read More
