Welcome backglad to hear you had a lovely time ex Cafe Mickey... I must say last year in March we were there for lunch and it was really good...
I'm definitely going to try a lunch time next time we go then!
Welcome back!![]()
Thank you

Great highs Helen
Look forward to the TR.
We will be eating at cafe Mickey 3 weeks today hope we get better service.

I am hoping to start my TR at the weekend - I was good and kept a diary for the first 3 days, then when my Niece was ill i stopped writing it.. so hopefully I can remember what we did!
Less than three weeks until your trip! Have an amazing time!
Welcome back Helen
Glad you had a brilliant time. Shame about Cafe Mickey, its so hit & miss.
Looking forward to your TR, thanks for sharing xx
It is very hit & miss in Cafe Mickey, but didn't at all ruin what was an amazing trip!
Gaston sounds brilliant! i've never met a 'face' character, which is why We're going to Auberge on our next trip.
Such a shame about cafe Mickey. it sounds like lunch is definitely the time to visit.
The face characters are amazing - to me, they hold the magic! Gaston was outstanding - but we also had lovely interaction with Jasmine, Mulan, Cinderella & Sleeping beauty! I'm gutted we missed the Mad Hatter, as he always seemed to be amazingly in character.
Welcome back!! A wonderful set of highs! The crowds - or lack of! Such a pleasant surprise eh?
Our experience at Cafe Mickey was a bit flat too. Yet when we ate there in summer 2012 it was much better, but that was lunchtime at opening so maybe that is the trick to a good meal there!
Can't wait for your TR!
I'm still in shock about the lack of queues - it was a definite surprise! I hope you had a lovely trip, too - it certainly sounds like you did!
Welcome back. I would suggest you email DLP and let them know about missing BBWWS. If you still have the tickets that you did not use they might refund them or issue you new ones for your next trip.
No harm in asking .
I hadn't thought about doing that. I might tag it into an email I was going to send to them to praise the housekeeping staff in the Santa Fe. As you say, there's no harm in asking!
Hi, great highs. Sorry you had bad experience in cafe Mickey. We went on the Thursday night of half term. We did have to wait to get in at 6.15 but luckily we're sat upstairs which was practically empty when we went up there. We saw 5 characters & had really good interaction. Think it's really hit & miss.
Totally agree about Gaston - we saw 2 & they were both ace & he seemed to stay out the longest even in the rain.
The one we saw must have been british/american as he had the voice down to a tee. Whereas the other one we saw the next day was very French sounding, DD would have been onto him straight away

Aladdin & Jasmine got absolutely soaked on the Wednesday morning we saw them, but it didn't faze them at all!
