Dining but not at DW or Epcot, etc.

[OrangeLily]

We are going to DW Nov. 23 for my daughters 4th birthday. I thought we might do a brunch/lunch/dinner on the 22nd. Thought of the hotel, but wondered if we had to stay there to do the dining there? Are they easy to get to? We are not staying on Disney property.

Do any of the meals have Pinocchio in attendance?

Thanks for any help or advice.

Hello, so you want to plan a breakfast or dinner but not at one of the theme parks (Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios or Animal Kingdom) but at one of the WDW resorts instead?

Disney has several resorts and no, you do not have to be a guest at that resort in order to book a dining reservation. There isn't a character dining that has Pinocchio. Chef Micky's at the Contemporary Resort has Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Pluto? (I think) for breakfast. At 1900 Park Fare, at the Grand Floridian, you have Winnie the Poo, Tigger (are they still there?), The Mad Hatter, Alice in Wonderland for breakfast. For dinner, 1900 Park Fare has Cinderella, Prince Charming, The Wicked Stepmother and the Evil Stepsisters.

Both the Contemporary and the Grand Floridian resorts are Magic Kingdom resorts meaning, Magic Kingdom is the closest theme park to them.

Cape May Cafe at the Beach Club has Minnie, Goofy and Donald for breakfast. This is an EPCOT resort.

Are you planning to visit one of the theme parks before or after your meal?
