Taking our 2 DDs in March. DD12 and DD6 love all things Disney. We have done the castle and chef mickey. We have 3 full days of dining.

Princess Storybook Breakfast at Akershus in Epcot is nice for Princess-y fun, and less expensive than CRT.

Crystal Palace was surprisingly fun for our DDs due mostly to the presence of Tigger.

1900 Park Fare at GF can be a lot of fun just for the stepsisters. Any time you can get Disney CMs rolling around on the floor in a hair-pulling fight, it's a good day

Donald's Safari Breakfast at Tusker House is also a nice meal.

One of our favorites is Lilo and Stitch breakfast at O'hana.

Garden Grill is our favorite!!!

We are character meal freaks and go to most of them on each trip. The only one we have never been to is Cape May. I do think it is funny that in a few responses, you already have most of the available character meals listed. Everyone is different. You really can't go wrong.

We have done them all. There isn't one that is our favorite. They are all good in their own ways. That being said, O'hana's is being one of our favorites for breakfast. The food is great and the interaction with the characters is also good. My teenage boys love Stitch.

We love Garden Grille for dinner and Donald's Safari Breakfast. If you can get a reservation for Donald's breakfast at 8:00 and AK opens at 9:00, it works perfect to come out of breakfast and get right on the safari just as people are walking in!

It really depends a lot on who they are into character wise. If they are into princesses, Ackershus Princess meal is very nice as is the 1900 Park Fare. You see a big variety of princesses at Ackershus. Park Fare has Mary Poppins, Alice, Mad Hatter, and i think Pooh at breakfast and Cinderella, Prince Charming, and the wicked step mother and step sisters at dinner. My daughter enjoyed both of these a couple of years ago.

We all enjoyed Crystal Palace if your into Pooh and the gang, and loved the Lilo and Stitch breakfast at O'hana (also Mickey and Pluto).

We are trying Garden Grill and Tusker House on our trip next month, and returning to O'hana for bk and dinner.

There are other fun themed restaurants if you want something other than characters also that your kids might enjoy. O'hana dinner has entertainment (coconut races, hula dancing, etc) and Whispering Canyon (hobby horse races, music, fun antics) just for a couple of ideas.

Good luck with your planning.

Wow thanks for all of the ideas! I think Im going to let my DD12 decide leaning toward breakfast meal instead of dinner.
