Chef Mickey ~ how long

[hopeis]

I'm hoping to make a late breakfast reservation at Chef Mickey's but wondering how long they will continue to serve breakfast and how long we can remain seated there.

I think that 11am is the last seating:

-so will my kids only have 1/2 hour to eat and interact with the characters that are there?

-and the characters WILL stay until 11:30 right?!

Has anyone done this recently and can let me know how it worked out?

This is our first ever trip and I want to make sure we have it all figured out so the girls get the most magic out of our trip.
Thanks everyone!

Any ideas anyone? I need to make ADR next week.

Even if your reservation is at 11:00, all of the characters will come to the table.

They do not pick up any food until everyone has left the restaurant, so you will not feel rushed.

There will be many families with 11:00 reservations.

We had 11:00 reservations at 1900 Park Fare, and it was lovely. It wasn't rushed in the slightest, the restaurant still had many folks still eating when we left.

We had the last breakfast seating at Chef Mickey last Dec. We did not feel at all rushed. All of the food items were available and fresh. We also saw all of the characters. You should be fine. Enjoy!!!

THANK YOU so much! I knew the good people here would help a girl out!
Can't wait!! I'm going to try to make the family chef hats to wear at breakfast ~ as long as we aren't considered to be "in costume".

That sounds really fun and cute! Chef Mickey will LOVE it!

Enjoy!

Wait, I have an 11:20 booked at Chef Mickey. How is that going to work?? As of now I don't think they are ding a lunch during Thanksgiving week, so if breakfast is over at 11:30, how will that work??

an 11:25 ADR this past June. All the people with late ADRs were seated in one section of the restaurant. The food was consistently replaced as needed. A couple of characters came around a second time to ensure they had not missed anyone. I think it took about an hour for all of the characters to get around to us. Most of our previous experiences with an earlier time took 90 minutes.
