How is lunch at Crystal Palace?

[knovak]

I was just wondering if lunch is worth it at the Crystal Palace? We are arriving in Orlando at 9:30 in the morning and seeing our room probably won't be done I was thinking of heading over to MK which is where are DD's will want to go and eating a TS lunch and then heading back to our hotel for swimming, CS dinner and early bed as we will have to be up at 5:00 am that morning. Thoughts?

We ate there in 2004, and we loved it. The meal was good. The character interaction was very good. This was our first character meal. We have a lunch ADR for August.

Sounds like a great plan -- we love breakfast AND lunch at CP; decent food, great characters, lovely space. Enjoy!

We really like lunch at CP--good variety of fresh food. It's a bright, pretty place too. Character interaction is a little rushed, but it will do. Enjoy!

Sounds like fun! We will be doing breakfast at CP in May and have never been. Love Pooh so am imagining we (DH and I) will have a great time!

We had lunch there back in December on the DDP. It was awesome. Plenty to eat and alot od choices. Savw room for dessert, they were out of this world. The charecters were great and the servers/waitstaff were great and really helped with the timing of their visits. ENJOY!!!!!

We have done breakfast and lunch there and both have been great. I find the best character interaction of the character meals we have done.

We are now going to dinner there in May!!

We have eaten at the Crystal Palace for lunch a number of times and it is my DDads favorite place. Im sure you DD's will enjoy it.
Be sure to tell Pooh hi from me

I must suggest the boston creme pie as a dessert! (my personal favorite)

We ate at the Crystal Palace twice and loved it both times! Both meals were at lunch, the food was great, service was good, and the food was pretty darn good for a buffet!
You can't beat the atmosphere, it's a beatiful restaurant.
I am sure your family will enjoy it!

We ate there in Nov and loved it. The Banana bread pudding for dessert was fabulous. Everything we had was very good. We had ADR's and saw people turned away who did not have them so the place was full but getting to the buffet area was very easy. It was just DH and I and we enjoyed watching the kids (ours are grown) with Winnie and Tigger.

Been there twice and really enjoyed it. Salmon, carving station, kids buffet section, great deserts. Characters are very active. Enjoy!
