How did you like Park Fare?

[WDW123]

has anyone ate at 1900 park fare at the grand floridian?

We ate there last July (09) for breakfast -- good, standard breakfast buffet, with Mary Poppins, Pooh & Tigger, Alice in Wonderland and the Mad Hatter. We liked the service, the food, and the characters were great...especially the Mad Hatter.

They had a system of taking group pictures of everyone first, then calling your name for you to go in and get seated for the buffet. It was done pretty well, although some people goofed and just walked in...

We ate dinner there in October 2009. It was 4 adults and two childres. We had ADRs at 5:00 PM and found the food was incredible and the characters were great.
The only one small complaint I have is we were sat at the table as soon as the characters walked out of the kitchen. We sat down right after Cinderella passed this table and she didn't make it back around until 6:30.

We are planning to eat here again this October with just all adults.

We have been there for dinner most every year and really enjoy it. DW loves the Strawberry Soup. They have Prime Rib carving along with other very good buffet items. The characters have changed over the years; however, Cinderella, Step-mother, and step-sisters were there last October and put on a good show. The step-sisters would "boo" Cinderella when she was introduced and posed for "funny" pictures.

We went for Breakfast and the food was mediocre at best. Mary Poppins was beautiful. I won't go back....

Have had breakfast and dinner there - we really enjoyed the food at both, and the location is beautiful. There ars some pictures in my reviews if you want to see the food. The ugly sisters at dinner are hilarious, and well worth the price!!!

We had dinner there on our recent trip and loved it. It was one of the best buffets we had and the characters were great.

We were there for dinner in May 09. We loved the food and the character interaction was wonderful!

 

[LittleStinkerbelle]

We had breakfast there last year -- I thought the food was okay and the character interaction was just so-so. Mad Hatter had to leave the dining room right before getting to our table but when he started circulating again he started wayyyy on the other side of the dining room and we had to wait quite some time before he got to us.

We did dinner there two years ago and I really wasn't a fan of the food but I thought the characters were great. I might do it again because that part was really fun and DD was too young to appreciate it (Lady Tremaine was scary for her).

We've done breakfast and dinner. We will never return for dinner. The food was Blah and cold. It felt like we were stuck in a hallway and the kids missed Cinderella and the Prince dancing mainly because the people waiting to be seated at Grand Floridian Cafe were constantly running in by our table to take pictures and even ask for signatures. No one did anything to stop them when several tables complained. The step sisters were the only thing that saved the meal they were very funny and took a minute or two with each table to chat. Cinderalla and the Prince not so much.

Breakfast we loved. I almost didn't want to go back at all but since we were not doing the parks I wanted to have a meal with Pooh while there. Food was good and the characters were amazing. We have added it to our will definatly return to list!

We went for dinner June 09, never again. Selection was not very good, but we did enjoy the characters.

Went for dinner last May and don't feel the need to go back. The food was good, nothing to write home about and not a ton of variety, but definitely decent. It was just so crowded and hectic when we went and I wasn't as impressed with the character interaction as many here. It took the longest of all the meals I've been to for the characters to come around. If your kids REALLY want to see Cinderella though, it might be worth it for you.

My family has eaten their for both breakfast and dinner.

As for breakfast, it is our favorite, so far, on site. We ate their last in September 08. The food was good and the Mad Hatter was a lot of fun, but scared my youngest child!

As for dinner, it is also very good. We ate there last in Sept 09. The food is good. My favorites were the strawberry soup, the garlic/parmesean potatoes, and the japanese salad (I don't remember what it was called!). My whole family loves the step sisters. They are hilarious.

We will eat both breakfast and dinner there again.

We have been for both breakfast and dinner. On our most recent trip we had breakfast and I have to say it was very good! The food on the buffet was fresh and tasty. We saw Pooh and Tigger two or three times, but Alice, th Mad Hatter and Mary Poppins we just saw once. That was okay with us, though. Our daughter loved seeing Tigger and Pooh and they spent a good amount of time with us. We were also asked twice if we had a chance to see all the characters which we thought was very nice!

We will be back next year!

We have done both breakfast & lunch every visit. We have enjoyed the food at both meals. The character interaction was good at both. Overall, we like dinner better due to the Tremaines. They are just too in-character-funny.

We were there in 2006 for dinner. It wasn't anything to write home about. We thought the decor was too fru-fru. Food was OK, but we like the atmosphere of Chef Mickey's better.

We had our VR at the wedding pavillion early in the AM then had beakfast at 1900 pf and they treated us like I was a princess and food was yummy

 

[laffingbead]

We were just there last Sunday for dinner and will not return. The waitress wasn't good (25 min from sitting down to give a drink order) (and other issues with her). The stepsisters/stepmom did stop our table by but Cinderella and Prince Charming never did. The food wasn't that great, okay mostly. I know having the poor service and not getting all the character interaction is coloring my impression of the place.

 

[disney2008]

We ate dinner there about a year ago. The best part was the characters. The Step Sisters were GREAT! The food was nothing special. I wasn't impressed. I probably won't go back, but did love the Step sisters!

 

[megan926]

We've eaten there before and liked it a lot! The characters were Cinderella and the gang...they were fine. Food was great!

We are going back in June!
