What is the best buffet breakfast spot?

[Carol17]

Just looking for opinions on the best buffet breakfast spot. We would prefer it NOT be a character breakfast, but could be persuaded if you really think its a great breakfast buffet!

Boma at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Their jungle juice is reason enough for us to eat there multiple times during a trip!

We eat at the Cystal palace everytime we go to DW. We love getting there before the park opens and think the buffet is AWESOME! It is a character breakfast, but even my 13 year old has fun there. We'll be going in two weeks!

If it has to be buffet style, if my memory is correct, Boma and the Trail's End Buffet are the only non-character breakfast buffets you have to choose from.

Boma is our favorite. It is the largest with the most selections in our opinion.

I really like Park Fare but its not quite as large but its a character dining experience( Pooh and Friends, Alice and Wonderland and Friends along with Mary Poppins occasionally)

Boma is very good, but Tusker House is the best, it is character but Yummo!!!!

 

[Chee Chick]

Tusker House has been my favorite breakfast buffet thus far. I loved the juice there.

Crystal Palace is our favorite breakfast - love the puffed french toast For non-character breakfast buffet, we think Boma is outstanding!

Boma is great.

Captain's Grill also has a non-character breakfast buffet but we have not tried it.

 

[anjalee6]

I agree with other people. As far as a non character buffet, Boma is the best.

Since non-character breakfast buffets are limited and we've not eaten at either of them, I would suggest Cape May Cafe. It is a much more relaxed and subdued character meal (although Goofy, Minnie and Donald offer great interaction) and the food was delicious!

 

[Silver Queen]

We love Boma. Excellent food...no characters. Having the opportunity to visit AKL is another plus!

Just returned from a trip to WDW and on this trip we had an ADR for Boma. It was wonderful. We had an early ADR at 8:00 a.m. and there were not even 10 occupied tables. The made to order omlets were also very very good. The selection of items on the buffet was more than impressive. We have enjoyed Tusker House and although we like it also very much I have to say Boma will now be on the top of our list for breakfast. The juice is also very good at both places.

 

[WAWDWLUVER]

Another vote for Boma!

 

[Pig Pen]

We love Boma breakfast buffet, but Captain's Grill at the YC is a traditional buffet and it was a good value the last few times we ate there. Usually nice and quiet as well.

The crystal palace is our favorite breakfast buffet!

 

[kathie859]

Snagging an early ADR for CP before park opening is worthwhile. It's really neat to see the park empty and a get opportunity to get pictures. The food at CP is good and we've always had great service. You can always clue your server or the character handler to skip your table----no big deal

 

[Pirate Me]

Boma at Animal Kingdom Lodge is delicious. I love the cinnamon raisin french toast!

Someone mentioned the Tusker House, (I have never heard of that), where is it located?

Our Ratings of The Wave (Breakfast Buffet):
. . . food price value: C+
. . . food quality: B
. . . food quantity per serving: B

NOTE: This is a new location for a breakfast buffet. The buffet
is not overly lengthy or widely diverse, but more than ample in
selection and quantity. At just under $20 per adult, it is a reasonable
buffet for WDW, but the selection quantity slightly reduces the
perceived value to a "C+" from a "B". However, as buffet breakfast,
it is probably the best-kept secret in WDW.
