This is a multiple choice poll. Please vote for not more than 2 choices (honor system) for the worst Buffet restaurant at WDW. Also, if you chose "other", please post which Buffet it is and why you voted for it. Looking forward to seeing the results.
while on our first trip to the Beirgarten we had one of the best meals at a buffet ever. we went back on a different trip and it was almost inedible. scared to go back now.
IMO... Donald's Breakfastosaurus. The cold buffet was fine, but the hot stuff was yucky!!! The only other buffet I've been to was CP for dinner, and it was ok. Enough for just a one time thing, no more for us. We're trying it for breakfast though this December.
We did CP for dinner and hated it. I then heard so many good things about it here, we went and tried it again. Still didn't like it. To each their own...
Since you did not put which meal ie breakfast or dinner I assumed you wanted dinner. I picked Chef Mickeys, went there this past Oct and it was horrible, great characters but TERRIBLE food. I also picked H&V..we went in Dec 04, waited an hour past our ADR time (nothing else was open for walk ins so we suffered), the place was filthy, dirty plates everywhere, they were not filling the buffet very well, the food was yuck and the server was MIA the entire time.
I agree! We also only got to see one character during the hour and 20 minutes we sat at our table. Big let down.
I voted for Hollywood & Vine, and Crystal Palace. I should have also clicked on other because I forgot about Donald's Breakfastosaurus. Have had great experiences at Cape May (breakfast and dinner), Biergarten, and Boma.
I didn't vote because I really don't agree with your choices. I have eaten at Biergarten, Crystal Palace, Chef Mickeys, and Cape May and loved them all. Heck I even worked at Hollywood and Vine for a time when I did my CP. Sounds like from what another poster wrote that the service has been lacking. Trust me when I say that restaurants at Disney have their good nights, they have their great nights, they have their awesome nights. They also have bad nights too...it happens so move on and try someplace new. I do know this...Biergarten for dinner and Crystal Palace for breakfast are a new family tradition. We love those two places.
As I checked off Chef Mickeys, I had to think that I couldn't believe I was doing that. I never, in my wildest imagination, would have thought that would be one of my choices!!! But, after our last dinner there, mid-August, I have to say it was one of our worst buffet experiences that trip. And we've eaten there every single time we have gone to WDW...it has been our tradition, in over 10 trips as a family!! The food choices were limited, the food itself was mediocre at best. And the character interaction was rushed...that was a first. Cape May dinner was not good. My dh loves seafood, as does my dad, so it was our choice for a nice meal when my dad visited us at WDW a few years ago. No one was happy with the food offerings. Not one person in the group had anything really good to say about the meal.
Chef Mickeys here. I agree with the above poster. It used to be a must to for us, but last time we went it was SO GROSS. I think the worst part about this establishment is that its ALWAYS FILTHY at the buffet.
I voted Chef Mickey's LUNCH. The breakfast was good, but the lunch was barely edible. As a matter of fact, this was the only bad meal we had during our 9 day trip last year.
Then I noticed a lot voted for H&V. We had the BEST breakfast buffet there our entire trip. Honestly, I think it depends on the day.
I have to agree about CP for dinner. I was just there last week before MNSSHP and my daughter and I really didn't like the food at all. If you want character interaction it was great. All of them made a fuss over both of us and my DD is 26--but food wise we should have chosen something else
Ooops, I accidentally picked three. Both CM and Biergarten were for dinner for me and the food was not that great. I've been to CM twice for dinner in the last few years (not my choice) and I just never enjoyed it. Too loud there. The food at Biergarten was horrible for me and I love German food. Boma I won't go back to unless I am outvoted. I will say however I know it has to do more with my dislikes of curry and coconut. Also the kids selection was cold both times I went.
I checked Crystal Palace. The server was very slow. I didn't care for the buffet and my son's allergies prevented him from eating much at all. They did have sorbet for him and he loved it!
