Hi all. Is there a character meal with the Disney Jr. characters? I thought there was one or used to be one?!

We had a great time at the breakfast last June. We did lunch this year (we were there last week) and I have to say I was definitely disappointed. Food was mediocre compared to last year's breakfast. Tables, bathrooms, overall restaurant was dirty and character interaction was almost painful without having a CM with them as before since they're non-face characters. They also didn't dance which was a huge highlight for our daughter last year.
With that being said, she still had an AMAZING time and I'd do it again and again for her!
 

I believe the breakfast at Hollywood and Vine is still Disney Jr. Play and Dine but the dinner has switched over to Minnie's Seasonal Dining. I'm not sure what characters are there at lunch.
 
Worth noting that unless you just want the meal, you can meet all them outside the Dis Jr show now. In a much better location for pictures.

Is it pretty likely to meet Doc McStuffins outside the show? We are considering EMM hour when we're there, but that would mean dropping H&V breakfast and Doc is the number ONE character that my 2 year old has to meet!

Yes, she is a regular character outside the Dis Jr show. Only reason she'd not be there is an unexpected absence. If they can only staff 1 Doc on a given day I haven't any idea which gets priority, M&G or Meal. I'd guess meal, since someone is paying for that one but it's just my guess.

And she's got the cutest setting there, like her play house/office.
 
Who are the characters at this meal?? Is it Sophia and Doc?? We are hoping to see Jake and Miles from Tomorrowland....not even sure that is possible! Is there a Miles to meet??

I have not heard of Miles meeting anywhere in the parks. Disney.com lists Jake, Doc, Sofia, and Handy Manny as the characters for this meal.

Yes, no Miles (as of yet).
It is now the only place to meet Handy Manny, if he appeals to your group then the meal would be worthwhile.

As for Miles, it took them a long time to get Doc available so if they go with that same timeline it will be bit before Miles shows up

IMO, Although Miles fits with the Disney Jr. Characters over at HS, a better tie in would be to have him in Tomorrowland at MK. After all the show is called Miles in Tomorrowland.

I can assure you as a very good friend of the Disney Junior kids, Doc will always be present in M&G and dining at all times! ;)
 
Is there a PhotoPass photog at the M&G? Here now and rethinking H&V breakfast.

No photopass at H&V! You are better off meeting the characters in the M&G over by the Disney Junior show. Sofia and Pluto are out at 9:30 with Doc and Jake following at 9:35 until about 7 pm. Just a heads up though the Star Wars march occurs through the courtyard many times during the day and the stormtroopers accompanied with loud music has been known to scare the little ones. Otherwise, the m&g is much better and you'll have more time to do other things than spending the time at the breakfast!

Yes, I knew about breakfast, just wasn't sure about the M&G, if there was a photographer there. Breakfast is PPO so it doesn't intefere with park time in theory, I'm just wondering if I still feel like paying that much for character interaction with non-face characters. We did 1900 Park Fare last night, which was wonderful, but the stepsisters were absent and some of the helper mice were there instead. They were cute, but I wasn't sure they were worth paying for a meal if all non-face.

My apologies I misread your original post! Yes, there are photopass at the regular park M&G, just not at the breakfast. Also, if your kiddos like handy manny, H&V is the only place to meet him. Hope that helps!

Thank you! Decided to cancel, kids don't care about Manny and we'll save the $$ on breakfast for other stuff, like Mickey bars and ears :)
