Lunch at Akershus or Coral Reef??

[NeverSayNever]

Help me decide...

Lunch at Epcot do we do the Princess' or Coral Reef... B/G twins celebrating their 5th B'day at WDW. We have not yet been to Epcot even though we were at WDW last year for their 4th B'day.. we did do CRT for Dinner then.

So which would you pick and why... or would you pick a completely different restaurant in Epcot for Lunch.

Please help me decide...


Thanks in advance!

Best,
Never

It would depend on whether your kids would be interested in the Princesses. If they both like Princesses, then I would choose that one. However, Coral Reef would be neat for a birthday if you could get a diver to hold up a sign and get the customized menus.

I agree with previous poster. Unless the girls want to dine with the princesses, skip it and dine at Coral Reef and maybe do the birthday sign. We did Akershus for lunch last year and we were not impressed with the food.

We absolutely loved lunch at Coral Reef last year, leaving NOTHING on our plates and devouring a couple of baskets of bread as well. There was a 5yo boy in our group and he had fun too and ate his whole pizza.

However, since this is the birthday celebration for a B/G I think the princess meal is a better choice, unless the menu is completely unappealing:

- Norway meal now includes a group photo for no additional cost; what a nice way to mark the memory of the event

- While the diver sign is nice are your 5yos really going to be able to read it? Coral Reef will still be cool at 8yos, Princesses probably not for the boy, so I say keep CR in the "next trip" pile as a must do

By the way I hear Jasmine is often at the Norway meal and that the Dads really seem to like her
