Yeah thx, I heard about that one, unfortunately my kids (as I suspect most who are under 35 ; ) don't know who Chip n Dale are. They want the ones they see on the Disney channel (Minnie, Donald and of course, the big 'M' ; )You can meet chip and dale for free at the Fort Wilderness Campfire and singalong.
While I have never been or know the price, I have heard good things about the character meal at the Swan or Dolphin being less expensive.
Wow the Boma thing sounds great - is 26 and 15 the lowest price out there? Oh never mind, I see it is NOT a characer meanl... Anyone know the numbers on the lowest priced character meal onsite or nearby of site WITH Mickey?As PPs mentioned Garden Grove is probably your cheapest option but will have possibly Chip and Dale, Goofy, and/or Pluto, just an FYI since you commented above about Chip and Dale. Also, wanted to add at Boardwalk Inn, they now have Bon Voyage brft w/Ariel, Eric, Flynn, and Rapunzel for about the same price as Cape May(FYI - Cape May and Ohana only have characters at brft). For the characters your kids are into, Cape May or Ohana would be best - Cape May has Minnie, Donald and Goofy, while Ohana has Lilo, Stitch, Mickey and Pluto. Just wanted to mention while not a character meal, the buffet at Boma at Animal Kingdom Lodge is excellent and about $26A/$15C for brft(not sure of dinner price), and then you can go check out all the animals outside at the viewing areas - giraffes, zebras, flamingos,etc. - all for free, and the Lodge is beautiful.

Thanks Chippy.... Anyone ever been to those 2 offsite meets? Are the characters just as 'professional' as the official Disney resort ones?The Hilton and the Buena Vista Palace in Disney Springs both have a character breakfast on Sundays with Minnie and two other characters. The Hilton one is $30 adult/$10 child. (Didn’t find the Buena Vista Palace price online, but it’s probably similar.)

We stayed at the Hilton years ago (12 I believe) for a conference I was attending. I brought the family along since hey, free room in Orlando. We went to several character meals that trip, including one in the parks (The Garden Grill in Epcot), one at a Disney hotel (Chef Mickey's) and the character breakfast at the Hilton mentioned above. All three were good, but honestly, I liked the Hilton's the best. Why? It was more affordable and since most people in the hotel were attending the conference, there weren't a lot of kids competing for the characters attention. Our son did very little eating because he was the center of attention. I also liked it because it wasn't so rushed like I always feel at most Disney places. As far as the characters go, they wear the same costumes as what you see in the parks and they're just as professional. When we were there it was Pluto and Minnie and I think Mickey, but it was awhile ago.Thanks Chippy.... Anyone ever been to those 2 offsite meets?

DD9 favorite characters to see are chip and dale. She can tell them apart I forget how something about their teeth. They are always messing around and doing funny things. It is always a great experience when we see both of them together.Yeah thx, I heard about that one, unfortunately my kids (as I suspect most who are under 35 ; ) don't know who Chip n Dale are.

The Garden Grove at the Swan is less.Title says it all. Ideas could include off-site Disney affiliated hotels etc... Basically Disney on a low budget where small kids get to meet characters; Breakfast lunch or dinner (dinner preffered tho..). Ideas?
6.5%. Automatic 18% service charge for large groups - six+, usually, could be eight+. Infants and other non-eaters count.I no0tice Garden Grove doesnt include the tax - and we are are very large party which is why I am checking so much. Any idea what the tax is?
