So - are you going to try to do anything in FW?

I am not an expert, but these are my thoughts: If you are really only going to do WS, then go at 9:25, when you are done with breakfast it will be just about 11 and you can pick up a Kim Possible kimmunicator if you are doing that. If you do the 8:25 breakfast, by the time you are done with breakfast (about 9:40) you will be able to do one or two things before having to trek back to the WS. Maybe you could pick up a FP for TT, ride MS (green if you have kids) and check out Innoventions (surprisingly fun) and then head back to WS.

Just my 2 cents.
 
I am not completely ruling out Future World that day, but- we actually have 2.5 days planned for Epcot (going to WDW for 10 days) so 1 full day will be spent in future world-

We have a 2yo and 5yo.

I do like that the 9:25am lets us sleep in a bit
 
I have to same plan as you. Our 2nd day is going to be WS. I made a 9:15 ressie, so we'd have time to get our meal and autographs for the girls. Then going to get the passport thing going.
 

I would do 9:25. No reason to get to Epcot an hour earlier if you aren't planning on doing FW! :rolleyes:
 
I'd do the 9:25AM. Let the kids sleep - and you're still in early enough to get some great pics from the back of Epcot.
 
Go with the 9:25 a.m. one. You'll have abit of time in the morning & that so helps out the day.

On our trip a few weeks back we had 3 breakfast times of 8:00 to 8:25 times. After the headaches of trying to get a bus to get there on time each time we canceled our last breakfast at CM & slept longer. I think a later breakfast time just works better for us as more buses are running.
 
I would take the 9:25 (we have that time for next week ourselves!). There is always a wait for your table, and it's a longer meal I find. Then when you are done, WS is open for your enjoyment.
 
Personally we like to eat there the earlier the better (the best time to have a character meal in a park is before the park opens IMHO), but we don't dedicate our Epcot days to just WS one day and FW the other, we always intermix both of them. So for your situation I would go with the later time therefore, like you said, you can sleep in a bit longer, and you can also take your time eating and hanging out with the princesses before heading out and enjoying WS. Good luck and have a great trip.
 
We have done the earlier time twice and it works out better for us, you are seated first and will not miss any of the Princesses, the food is very fresh, the place is not jammed yet and to walk through the empty park first thing in the am is nice, great picture ops
 
If you're only going to do the World Showcase, then there's no way I'd want to get to breakfast at 8:25. The latest you'd likely get out of there would be about 10:30, leaving you a full half hour with nothing to do.
