Akershus or Cinderella's Table?

[scoobygrl79]

Planning a trip in August and want to do a princess dining experience. Which is better for two six year old princesses? It's been years since I've done Cinderella's Royal Table,so I don't remember which princesses are there. Any feedback is appreciated!

Hey there! I always struggle with choosing too! I end up doing both because, well, its the CASTLE!! That said, I think the ONLY reason we hassle with CRT is because of that castle. I say that because the food isn't too far off from each other (quality, etc), both have princesses galore, and CRT is a whole TS higher more (or more $$$ if you're paying OOP). I think where the problem for me starts is that I like that Belle is in her full yellow gown dress at Akershus but at the castle, she's in the blue peasant dress....boooo. I know, I know....it's the little things! I hope your little 6yr olds and you have a great time!

I like and agree with figment_jii's point-by-point analysis. We've eaten at both on our last 3 trips and love them both. We have always done breakfast at Akershus and love the family-style hot foods. Had a very tasty lunch at CRT this last visit and a so-so CRT dinner our prior trips.

I give a slight edge to Akershus because it brings a little princess/magic/kiddie stuff into Epcot, which is otherwise not very character/centric.

I've eaten at both restaurants, multiple times. If you're looking for a Princess meal - I say Akershus. If you're looking for an overall Disney magical experience - I say CRT.

I would actually suggest holding a bit until reviews of CRT come out after the remodel. I wouldn't be surprised if there are some changes to the character line up and maybe some other feature changes. Go ahead and book now, but be open to change.

Here are characters pictures from just a couple of my visits:
