Hey there,
Only one week left before our trip to
Disneyland! We are planning to eat at Goofy's Kitchen but can't decide to go for breakfast or for dinner.
Which one do you recommend?
My personal favorite and preference is the breakfast, because I'm more of a 'hearty breakfast kind of person' than a dinner person. Other folks who are not 'breakfast people' might swing the other way and suggest dinner. The two times I had dinner at Goofy's over the years (and I actually forgot about one of those times until a friend reminded me) happened to be on nights when I was not very hungry. So nothing at the very large buffet appealed to me. I am always famished when we hit the breakfast buffet, however, and so I naturally am more inclined to recommend that, even though there was nothing wrong with the dinner other than the fact that I just was not hungry.
Here is a page from Disneynerd420's Trip Report from Fall 2009 - scroll all the way down the page and see photos of the wonderful, extensive Goofy's breakfast buffet – Posts #338 and #339:

We don't seem to have any extensive photos of the Goofy's dinner buffet, but it is just as large as breakfast. I do, however, have a list of dinner buffet items that was posted on Mouse Savers or some such site last year. Keep in mind that some of the breakfast items seem to be included on this dinner buffet list, but you can kind of tell which item goes with which meal. Pizza, chicken and hot dogs are served at both breakfast and dinner. The menu and meat entrees tend to change often, but some possible selections include:
create-your-own omlet station including mushrooms, onions, ham, tomatoes, green peppers and olives
whole eggs are available fried to your liking
carving station with roast tri tip and ham
Daisy's scrambled eggs
