How is character breakfast at Akershus in Epcot?

[dsnygirl2006]

I was wondering what the general reviews of this place are? My DS will be 7 when we go so he won't care too much for the princesses, but my sister seemed to really enjoy this place last year and I was wondering if it was worth trying? Thanks guys

i'm not sure how much help I will be, we haven't been in five years, but when we did go, the food was cold and the meal took forever, we wasted so much time waiting on food. As far as character breakfasts, we prefer the cinderella's castle breakfast, chef mickey's and 1900 park fare.

We had breakfast here about a year and a half ago.......... it was AMAZING - Fantastic........... I absolutely LOVED it - so much so, I have it booked for our next trip in May. The food was VERY good and hot and they continue to bring more of whatever you want. I also VERY much enjoyed the "bar" with the cheeses, fruit and carved meats - we just thoroughly enjoyed it. The Princess interaction was also very nice - we got tons of pics and autographs and they spent a lot of time with each child. It was very relaxed and the pace of the meal was fine, not rushed or slow!

I think your DS will enjoy it - our's did, he was 8.

If he loves Princesses folks go on and on about it. He'd probably enjoy O"hana's
a lot better. Also maybe Chef Mickey's would be a great idea. My DGS loves stitch (hate him) but pretend to like the blue monster and take him to O'Hana's for character breakfast. Also Crystal Palace has good food and Pooh and friends.

We just did it last week on our trip and it was our worst meal.

It isn't a normal buffet. They bring a plate of eggs, bacon, potatoes and sausage to the table for everyone to share and then on the buffet there are pastries and some fish.

I liked it myself because I like smoked salmon and cream cheese/capers/onion for breakfast but the rest of the family mostly ate fruit.

But generally it was't that great. I think we'd have liked it better with an omelet station or more things like the buffet at Boma or Crystal Palace.

We ate there last Sept and overall we enjoyed it - it's not a favorite of ours, but we would probably do it again in the future. We had good character interaction with the princesses, we had excellent service and the warm breakfast platter was pretty good. The cold buffet was rather disappointing as we really didn't care for many of the items that were offered.

We enjoyed the food. My nieces loved the princesses, but my sons were not so into it. The boys liked 1900 Park Fare for a different character meal, and then we took the Monorail to Epcot from there!

We liked the food and the interaction with characters was great. I would suggest that you look at the menu and decide if you would like the food well enough to try it.

We loved it!! We have eaten there on our last 3 trips and are going again in April. This was my younger DD's favorite breakfast of the trip She still talks about the cheesy potatoes 18 months later

We had breakfast there in December and LOVED it. Very organized, good food and princesses were awesome. We're hoping to be able to do it a few times during our next trip.
