Please let me know which combination of restaurants is better. We will have the regular Dining Plan. We have two kids, 8 and 4.


Option A: Be Our Guest Lunch (QS), Crystal Palace dinner (TS)

Option B: Columbia Harbour House (QS), Be Our Guest Dinner (TS)


Thank you in advance.!
 
Option A BOG , Crystal palace put it over the the top. Any combo of those 2 places is an excellent choice, I think your kids will really enjoy both as will you.
 

Option A - we love character meals. We didn't do CP until our last day and we wished we had done it sooner (and a second time) because we loved the atmosphere - so airy and the food was great!!!
 
Given the make up of your group - option A. We like all 3 of your choices, but I would definitely do Crystal Palace with the kids. And, you will still get to see the inside of Be Our Guest; it's gorgeous! Columbia Harbour House is a solid choice, but nothing special about it for kids.

Ditto.
 
It really depends on your kids, and it may be a different answer for each kid. For my DD, at age 8, she would have picked dinner at BOG so that she could meet the Beast. At age 4, it might have been the Pooh characters at Crystal Palace. I would say it just depends on which character is more important-- Beast or the Pooh characters. We really enjoy dinner at BOG, but at lunch you could still see the inside of the castle even though it is more chaotic since it is CS. We also enjoy lunch at BOG. Crystal Palace is fun to see the Pooh characters. One think to think about is that you can see Pooh and Tigger at a meet and greet at MK (but not Piglet or Eeyore), Beast can only be seen at dinner at BOG.
 
I have never eaten at BOG for any meal other than dinner, and it is one of DD (age 4) favorites. So I'd go with option B. While DD also likes Crystal Palace and the Pooh characters, the Beast experience is pretty cool and the food is so much better at BOG. Also, CHH is one of my favorite places for a quick lunch.

Personally it wouldn't even be a question for me...Option B

Not a fan of Crystal Palace and love BOG dinner
 
Thank you all for the suggestion. I didn't know Beast will present at the BOG dinner!!! That's so cool!!! I would love to see him and I believe my kids will be thrilled too. We are doing other character meals through out the stay (Garden Grill, 1900 PF, Cape May). So I guess they will have enough fun and won't miss CP. :tongue:
 
If it were me I would say neither. I am not a big fan of option B and BOG for dinner (I like lunch) and I am not a big fan of option A with a dinner buffet (like CP for breakfast though). But in your case with the age of your children I would go with option A. With this option your children as will you get to experience the incredible decor of BOG and will also have a fantastic time enjoying the Pooh characters at Crystal Palace. But with that said, it looks like you have already made up your mind. Either way I'm sure you are going to have a great time.
 
One thing to remember is that the Beast VERY tall. If your 4-year old is the least bit afraid of characters he may be too much for him or her.
