Princess Akhershus

[I Believe n Fairies]

When we went, it was not a breakfast buffet. Everything was on our table in platters and the wait staff refilled everything as needed. For our drink, we were offered OJ or milk. There was a fruit tray on the table when we arrived with a big selection of fruit. I do not recall specifics, but it was good. For main course, they brought out platters of scrambled eggs, hash brown casserole, bacon, sausage, and biscuits. At the end, a tray of sweet rolls were brought out. Again, there were several different types, and I can't remember what they were. Our ADR was for 8:30, so we waited for it to open, but it was not too long. We were VERY excited to see Belle in her yellow gown.

The food was wonderful we thought. I chose to do breakfast because the other menu options did not appeal to me. My dd had a great time. Since our ADR was early, I did not feel that the characters were rushed. As the restaraunt was more crowded, I did notice that the characters were moving a little faster.

We loved it and can't wait to go again!

When we were there in February they brought to the table a platter of eggs, potato casserole, bacon, sausage and rolls. We were able to refill that platter as needed. There was also a buffet line in the middle of the room that breads, fruits, and pastries. This food was more of the Norwegian flare while the platter was completely American. Between the atmostphere, food and princess interaction, we feel like this was our favorite character breakfast and have made reservations there for our next trip.

We went to the dinner this past Sept. We really enjoyed it. The princesses are a little rushed but that didn't bother my dd's. Ariel was in her princess gown for meet & greets when we first arrived and they do offer you a picture package. We enjoyed the food. I had the Kjottkaker which is like a meatloaf and it was very good! The desserts were soooo good too. I don't have it down as an adr for our Dec trip as I am trying to do new places but am so tempted to book it! If not, I am definately picking up some rice cream at the Norway bakery....yummy!!

We went for dinner last year during free dining. I was not impressed. It was very crowded, the interaction from the princesses was limited. We first got their and met Ariel and took a picture then waited a really long time before another princess came along (this wasn't our first character meal either). Then I really was NOT impressed with dinner. Maybe we just aren't adventerous eaters but I really didn't like it. For an "appetizer" we were allowed a virgin coctail, then we went to the buffet for some things (I can't remember what, like cold cuts and maybe shrimp). Then came our meal, not great. Then came a shared dessert platter. I have had better.

We are going to give it another try, but this time we are going for breakfast. I am really hoping it was just a bad day (it was REALLY hot that day) and I know we should enjoy the food. My are still really into princesses so I thought this would just work out better for my family.

Our party of 8 (5 adults and 3 kids, 8yr old boy, 3 and 4 year old girls) ate there for dinner during free dining last year. We LOVED our food. I am NOT adventurous at all but tried the Traditional Kjottkaker and it was delicious (similar to a meatloaf but tastier). We had wonderful Princess interaction too. We saw Ariel as we were seated in the alcove and took 3 pictures of her. As we were seated the Princesses came around (Sleeping Beauty, Belle, Cinderella, and Jasmine) spent time with my nieces and nephew and signed autographs and took a few pictures (separate with each kid plus a group shot).

The whole family enjoyed the food and of course there were kiddie entrees for the little ones.

We plan on going for our 1st meal at WDW in May 08 on our 1st full day!!! I am super excited and think my daughter will LOVE it... How do you get in to Epcot to get to the Norway Castle????

When you got to the entrance, there is a special part set up for the Princess Breakfast people. They will check your name on the list and let you go in. Then you go straight to Norway.

I loved this place!!! If you are looking for a huge selection of princesses this is the place to go! I can't wait to go back! It is also fun to be in Epcot so early!

What about the lunch ???? can anyone tell me how that is with the princesses? we have lunch ressies but would change to breakfast if others thought that would be best.

We went to the lunch last September and we had Ariel (ballgown), Belle, Sleeping Beauty, Jasmine and Cinderella. There were probably 5 or 6 families in the entire restaurant. We were seated by the area where Ariel stands in her ballgown and whenever there wasn't a line for pictures with Ariel, she came over to our table and talked with the girls. They loved the extra attention that they got from Ariel. We were also surprised that Cinderella was there because when I made the ressie they specifically told me that Cinderella wouldn't be there.

The lunch food was a mixed review from our party. I liked my food while the other 2 adults didn't. The kids ate their food with no complaints but they were 4, almost 3 and 17 months.

We did the dinner this past January and we all enjoyed it. My girls were dressed as Snow White and Ariel. Both girls loved it when the princesses made a fuss over them.
As for the food, we found it to be quite enjoyable. I especially liked the cold bar.
Enjoy!!

We had the dinner Christmas week 2005. It was not one of my favorite dining experiences but my daughter loved the princesses. We too shelled out a hefty sum for the 8x10 with Ariel but we really didn't need to. All of the princesses made their way by and we had lots of time for photo ops with each and every one. This was during the busiest week of the year and I was impressed with the attention and effort that they made.
As a rule I generally enjoy the food at the character breakfasts better than the dinners. Have fun.

We had dinner there in March and it was one of our favorite meals. I had some pasta with chicken and dh had the veison stew. Both were really good.

Princess interaction was good also, we managed to get a seat right near where they come out. Snow White was at the entrance and we also saw Ariel, Belle, Jasmine and Cinderella.
