Breakfast at Cape May Cafe/ Crystal Palace

[DVCJones]

How is the food at Cape May Cafe? We have always had breakfast at CP, however, we will trying CMC this trip. We were wondering if the food is similar. I know the Characters are different.

Thanks!

The food at Cape May Cafe is typical buffet breakfast food in my opinion it was great! but nothing extraordinary about it.

I like over all Cape May better because I felt it was less hectic and rushed than breakfast at CP. I think the characters there are Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, Chip and Dale all in beach gear!

subscribing.

We have the same question! Love CP, but probably staying at EPCOT hotel.

Cape May doesn't seem to be as popular as Chef Mickey's. The only reason why I chose it is because my son is going on the Albatross Treasure Cruise out of BC/YC at 9:30, so this way, we can enjoy our breakfast and not be in a rush!! Plus, he loves the characters and wants to see as many of them as possible. I've become OCD about this character location binder that I made.....

Although they are similar, they feel totally different. CP has good food, and a great selection, but somehow the layout of Cape May makes it feel like a larger selection. I don't think it is, but it's set up differently. I feel like Cape May has a more "upscale" buffet feel, more like Boma. They have a different kind of seasoned potato and things like grilled asparagus (yes at breakfast), and a yogurt bar. CP has potatos, and yogurt, but it's just different. CP is much more "kid" oriented to me, more kid-friendly foods, louder restaurant. Cape May is more laid-back and quiet...and the Yacht Club is just fantastic to wander around too.

I think the choice between the two would be based on what experience you were looking for. If you want a breakfast in the parks, then you want CP. If you want a more out of the way, not rushing in the parks place, go with Cape May.

Thank you for the replies. This was a last minute change in our ADRs. My DH always looks forward to breakfast at the CP. He thinks the food is great. I am so happy to hear the many people feel that CMC is just as good if not better (food wise) than CP. I think the adults will enjoy a quieter atmosphere and my DDs will enjoy the characters.

Thank you!!!

IMHO, CMC offers the nicest buffet brekfast onsite, the setting is nice and the character interaction is excellent.

Love CP, but for lunch or dinner rather than breakfast.

When staying at an Epcot resort, we always make plans to eat at Cape May. It is very good; although, Crystal Palace is still our favorite. There is no breakfast lasagna at CM.
