character dining

[MomG]

This will be our first trip to WDW with our 4 year old twin daughters.

Any advice on character dining?? When can you make reservations - is it 60 days before the date you want?? The girls love princesses, but I've heard nightmares about trying to reserve the castle. How about the new one at Epcot?? Anyone ever been there? How much do these meals cost??

Thanks for the advice.

The Princess Bkfast is really nice. Good food and IMHO better interaction that at the castle. You need to call 120 days in advance for this meal. It is 60 days for Cindy's. Plan on spending $65 for the Princess and last time we ate at the castle for bkfast I think it was about the same. Cape May also has a nice bkfast. It includes Goofy, Minnie and Chip and Dale dressed is swim wear. The food again is really good here and you'll spend in the $60 range for a party of 4.

Hope this helps.
