Crystal Palace for dinner?

How is it and how good can you see Wishes from there?

I dont think we could see much from inside.......the food was excellent.....alot of choices for all types of eaters..........

I don’t think the view for Wishes will be very good but I have eaten there and the choices are very good. I always recommend trying to get the very latest lunch reservation because you will save some money for the exact same food.

the fireworks will be pretty much blocked depending on where you sit.....the food is good, and there is a large selection, where everyone can find something they will love.

Agreeing with the previous posters...food is good and plentiful, Pooh characters are fun, but no real view of wishes from inside.

We have eaten dinner there on our last two trips and loved it! The food is great and the kids love seeing some different charcters (Winnie the Pooh and Friends). We did have to wait a little while to get in - even with reservations - but it was worth it. The inside of the restaraunt is so pretty. We weren't dining during the fireworks, so I am not sure about that view.

It's not like CA Grille, you won't see the FW well from inside...but plan on a late dinner, step outside and voila! a great view of the FW over the castle.

I'm going against the grain here... we (me, dh, dd-6yo and ds-2yo) ate here in December and it was the least favorite of all our meals at WDW!

It wasn't horrible or bad... but the food wasn't all that (loved CM's, Tusker House, H & V, and 1900 Park Fare's buffets) and the character interaction wasn't anything more than a hug, photo and signature.

I would have much rather eaten at Chef Mickey's or 1900 Park Fare again than waste our time at CP.

To see the fireworks, you need to step out on their porch (towards the castle). Its a great view and we've done it twice (in October both times) and it was not crowded. We just asked the server if there was anywhere to watch and she pointed us in the direction. (I don't think they would allow anyone not eating to watch from there - both times we just got up from our table to go watch).

I must say I have had two great dinners there - hot, fresh, good selection - probably my best meal in WDW. The last time everything looked and tasted as if it had been out for hours. The park wasn't closing until 9 (with EMH as well) so it wasn't as if they were closing. We are not planning on going back the next trip.
