time to eat here? do you think b4 park opens OR about 10:00am

I really want to the latter but should i get to the park at opening to ride the Safari 1st? Do you think i'll get on it prior? OR if i fast pass it how long usually is the wait?

we're doing Donald at 8am on a non-EMH day so we get into the park an hour earlier than the "public". That way we'll make the rope drop at dinoland for park opening and be that much closer to FP for EE or Safari. :thumbsup2
 
I like early for the above mentioned reasons and because the food hasn't been so mauled and handled by too many people in front of you. The upside to having a late seating is that it will hold you for lunch...
 
We've been to Donald's for breakfast 5 times. We went to a later breakfast one time, but all the others have been at 8am on a non-EMH day. We enjoy getting into the park early and finishing breakfast right around the time the park opens. We also found the character interaction and service to be better early, and the buffet is fresh and well-stocked.
 

I have done chef mickeys and donalds, I prefer early breakfast always. You get a good jump on the people that dont have it together pirate:
 
I just can't bring myself to haul myself out of bed, get the sleepy toddler dressed and sunscreened and awake and not screaming bloody murder anymore to go to a park an hour before it opens to eat breakfast. I booked them last fall for free dining - and free food didn't get me there.

However - my kid likes to sleep until 9ish in the morning. If you have early risers - go for an early breakfast. For the upcoming fall trip I've planned a couple of late breakfasts on EMH mornings. Wake up at the crack of waaaay-to-early-in-the-morning, ride some rides - then camp out with a pile of waffles and maple syrup when everyone else comes pouring into the parks.
