Cindy's Breakfast advice & encouragement

[sarahsmom3]

I want to book a reservation for a late lunch. Is it even possible to receive the time you want or is it better to get what they give you??

 

[Disneyglobegirl]

You can ask for a certain time but as fast as they seem to book up you might be better off just saying late lunch please. When I call for breakfast I usually say earliest available and the CM will book the time that they can pull the fastest so maybe say latest lunch available?

Hi all!

I called last night to book at cindy's for lunch for 7/21/05. Thought I might not get anything since the 90 day window had come and gone but I had no trouble at all. The MS rep actually asked me what time I wanted to eat!! I couldn't believe it! Apparently, with the start of the character lunches it will be much easier to get an audience with the princess.

He had to stay on hold for 20 minutes, and we got more "brunchy" (10:30) times, which is GREAT for us! We'll grab a quick snack in the room with coffee and milk and head to the park - by the time its time to eat, we'll be ready! Then maybe we can skip lunch and eat a BIG early dinner.

That's exactly what we did - hit the rides early before they were crowded, ate breakfast with Cindy and her friends, and then had dinner with Goofy, Pluto, Minnie, Chip, and Dale at the Liberty Tree Tavern. It was a great character-filled day!

I am heading to Disney on Oct 1st with my DS and DM. I have always wanted to go to the princess breakfast at the castle. I asked my son if he would like to go and he said sure, but I'm not sure if he understands that it's just cinderella yet. He is going to be 6 at the time. Do you think that it will have a special effect on him as much as it does on the girls???

my ds is 5 and he can't wait to go back to the castle...last time we were there, cindy and sleeping beauty each planted a big huge kiss on him right at the same time...it was priceless!!! he wore the lipstick prints on his face all day!

 

[meatballsmom]

Thanks momof2. I'm glad to know that. I will try to make a ressie then.

I have a question, I know if you have an early ps at crt, they will let you into the park early, but will they let you in even if it is about an hour before the park opens?

 

[MomOf2DisneyKids]

yep...you'll need your confirmation number to get it. It is SO awesome to go down Main St USA before the crowds are all there. That's what we did last year, and we have a PS for 8:10 on a non-EMH morning, so we're doing it again. It's great....you finish breakfast, and you're already well into the park when it opens!!!!!

Hello, I heard that children under 3 eat for free at the character meals, except the former ice cream social. But when I check out the menu on allears.net, at the bottom is has the following:

"Adults $21.99 Children Under 11 $11.99"

Is that a typo? I'll be happy if my 2 1/2 yr old eats a couple of strips of bacon.

It is actually children under 3 may eat off of an adults plate rather than free. This works well for table service and buffet. If you order something special for your 2 1/2 yr old, you will have to pay for it. I have to pay for my DD 3 1/2 and it will be a miracle if she eats more than a few bites too!

 

[Kellydelly]

I think that is incorrect. I'm pretty sure they can have their own plate too and eat for free. We have only done buffet character meals with our little ones but they had their own plates of food. If you went to a meal with family style or plated meals they would give your child under three a meal for free.

I am cancelling a Cindy's ressie and someone here is going to try to get it. We are wondering does anyone know least busy days and times at WDW Dining for us to call? Thanks, Kris

 

[EEyorelover22]

I did this last year over the lunch hour and it worked great. We were both online...emailed each other...and were both on with Dining at the same time. They were able to pick up the ps. Mid afternoon might be a good time if you can do it then.

I just cancelled an extra Cindy's ressie for May 31 at 9:30 am. It was for 2 table of 3. I coordinated with a fellow DISer but she only needed 1 table so there's still a table for 3 available. Good Luck!

I'm sure many of you know this but for those who don't, after June 10 they will now be offering a Cinderella princess lunch. It will be exactly the same thing as the CRT breakfast in the castle, with the princesses, only a little more expensive and it's lunch instead of breakfast. A nice CM told me about it when I couldn't get the breakfast ressies.

My daughter has talked about Disney for years! We are finally going this summer! She is 5 1/2. After reading all of your advice, I did exactly what you suggested! I am the proud holder of ressies for Cinderella on our first day! THANK YOU! My little princess is so excited!

 

[precious02]

I just cancelled breakfast for two at Cinderella's castle for May 21st. I may have to cancel the other half of the reservation for four if i don't figure a few things out. I know it is kinda last mninute and it may be gone as I am typing, but I don't know how many people actually cancel. So, the info is there for you!

Have a good time!!!

Sarah

I have CRT breakfast for 10 people for July 26th at 9:05 a.m. that I am going to cancel. If anyone here is interested you can post or better yet PM me so we can set up a good time to call. Being that its for 10 this may even be able to benefit 2 parties. We could time coordinate for all

 

[lmhall2000]

I am cancelling a CRT for 11:05 on May 18th for 5 people if anyone needs it...I'll wait a day before cancelling it just in case...

Hope I can help someone...

Good luck all!
