Anyone been that can confirm if the 'breakfast favorites' include things like eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, waffles?? Otherwise the menu looks rather limited.
Most breakfast buffets serve similar things. Of course they each have a couple of things unique to them, but for the most part all the "breakfast favorites" are there (the only one I am not 100% on is pancakes). What we really liked about breakfast at Cape May, is that it is a character meal without the same chaos that a lot of other character meals have. By far the most relaxing character buffet on property, IMO. I see you are staying at BWI as part of a split stay, so this breakfast would be perfect. The only negative about it is that unless you are staying in that EC resort area it can take a it to get to using Disney transportation (which won't be an issue if you plan on going during your BWI portion).
Just a side note, our favorite thing to do for breakfast when staying at BWI was to grab something from the Boardwalk Bakery and get a table by the water. Such a relaxing and peaceful way to start the day. A light morning breeze, the morning boats drifting along, very Zen and calming.
My DD and I ate there in December. All the breakfast "favorites" are included on the bar (eggs, bacon, sausage, Mickey Waffles). They had cheese grits, muffins, fruit, deli meats. It was a great breakfast with very fun characters!
We’ve been many times and it’s always been Minnie, Goofy and Donald in recent years. I think back in the day chip and dale may have been there, so I suppose their outfits still exist in case one of the other 3 is unable to make it that day. But bank on Minnie, goofy and Donald.Thank you - do you remember which characters they were?
Thank you - actually this reservation is for our upcoming Beach Club stay and we're "testing the waters" with this and other surrounding restaurants not in DHS or Epcot to see what will stay for our split stay BWI portion. Once we're back at the Poly for the latter half, we'll go back to our favorites that are on the monorail line I have to admit I'm a bit nervous staying on the Epcot side of Disney as we've never ventured there other than Beaches & Cream during our last trip and Yachtsman many many years prior -- so this is all new to us. Suppose its just fear of the unknown and we'll either go home and make the split stay a full Poly stay, or will enjoy both sides of the World.
I didn't even notice the big tickers for your trips, only the tiny font at the top of your signature... go figure.
Take a night to check out the Boardwalk at night. Its a fun place to walk around a little bit, see some of the street performers, maybe grab a funnel cake and/or something from the Boardwalk Bakery (which I still suggest you try one morning). Or just sitting by the water and watching the boats go by.
If your family likes seafood, especially crab legs, I highly suggest Cape May for dinner as well (no characters). You also have the restaurants at the Swan/Dolphin that are good if you aren't tied to a dining plan. BRG on the Boardwalk is good for a late night burger and a beer. We have not been to FF since the refurb so I can't comment on that. Nor have we been to Trattoria al Forno, which also has a character breakfast with Rapunzel, Flynn, Ariel and Prince Eric.
Half the fun of Disney is stepping out and "testing the waters".
I'm the only seafood eater. If you love seafood as much as I do, try Boathouse. We went during our September trip and it was FABULOUS!
