Carnation Cafe Dilemma....thinking out loud

[Misskitty3]

I made our PS's for our trip yesterday. According to the cast member I spoke to the park will open at 10am on the 2 days were are there early enough for breakfast. She said that Carnation Cafe stops serving breakfast at 11am (seems weird they would only serve breakfast for an hour but okay...).

So I made our PS's for 11am so we can get our cinnamon roll french toast (our favorite!).

Now I am second guessing myself, and wondering if I will want to give up valubale early park time to stop and eat. The day I made the PS's is also the day we will do MM so we will be in the park at 9am and will have grabbed McDonald's around 8am. So we will probably be ready to sit down for a nice breakfast but I don't know for sure.

We like lunch at CC too but the cinnamon roll french toast is our favorite.....

I would have either something very small before MM and then breakfast at CC (by 11 you will have been in the parks for 2 hours already) OR do a PS for the other day at 9:30 a.m. (they will have Main Street and the stores open by then) and you can then eat before starting your day. We love Carnation Cafe

By 11, the park will be getting busier. After 2 hours, you should have a good amount of fast passes and probably will be ready for a short break. I would keep it at 11 and have a nice sit down breakfast.

I agree, if you're doing MM that morning, you can collect your first FP right at 10 and the next at 10:45 or so. You'll already have done a lot, and you'll be ready to take a break by then-- and that can be your brunch, so you won't need a lunch break so soon. Maybe show up at 10:50 so you can be sure and get under the wire for the breakfast cutoff.... ?

Should work fine!

If they stop serving breakfast at 11:00 A.M., will you still be able to order it if you have a PS at 11:00?

You will be fine. We like to do our PSs for breakkie at 10:30, just enough time to get a couple FPs, do a couple rides and then we are STARVING! LOL

I also would wonder if at 11 am you show up and they are serving lunch. My luck is to get the lead, manager and GM who all agree that lunch starts at 11 am.

go for what you love not the rides. I would rather have a Taste Pilot's burger than ride any ride in the park without getting off 10 times in a row even my beloved bobsleds.

Agreed.

& send a runner to BTMRR or Buzz at 11:40 for your 4th FP while the rest of you are sipping coffee, finishing your Mickey Waffles, spooning out the last bit out of the breakfast parfait etc.....watching the late arrivals strolling up Main St.
