Where are there character dinners or breakfasts located?

[rapunzal]

Which restaurants have dinners? Where can you make a PS? For the restaurants at citywalk need a PS...where can I call? What would be good places for kids that are not too expensive with good food? Thanks

There is a character breakfast:
Swing in for a Character Breakfast at Islands Of Adventure!
Breakfast is not just the most important meal of the day…now it’s the most fun! Bring the whole family and enjoy breakfast with Spider-Man™ and The Cat in the Hat™ at Islands of Adventure’s Confisco Grille®, each Thursday through Sunday morning from park opening to 10:30 a.m.

The breakfast is $15.95 for Adults and $9.95 for children, plus tax and gratuity.

Call 407-224-4012 for reservations.

Restaurants for dinner in the parks: Mythos (closes early in non-peak), Confisco, Lombards, and Finnegans. Others: http://themeparks.universalstudios.com/orlando/website/usf_dining_directory.html

Restuarants in City Walk: Way too many to list. See: http://themeparks.universalstudios.com/orlando/citywalk/dining_restaurants.html

Retaurants in onsite hotels: too many to list also. http://themeparks.universalstudios.com/orlando/website/resort_hotels/hotel_map.html

How old are your kids? What foods do they like? How much is too much to spend for a meal? You most likely won't need a reservation unles you are travelling at a busy time of year. The urls I posted above also give the number to call for reservations.

We would recommend Hard Rock Cafe for kids - plenty to look at, decent menu, large portions and reasonably priced. We took DD when she was 3 and she had a great time - nobody cares if the kids are loud - or having a boogie to all the great tunes playing!

on our last day at the parks we went to the confisco grill charecter breakfast. we waited at the gates and went in first. it was empty! we had ALL of the charecters to ourselves! the food was GREAT! such a nice break from shoving down a bagel for breakfast the rest of the days. there was the cat and the hat, thing 1 and 2 (really funny! they took sugar packets on our tables put them in their patches on their shirts), and spiderman who talks to you and is really cool. they also had red spiderman pancakes! soooo goood! it was lots of fun and convienent because the confisco grille is in the port of entry and is really close to the entrance so you dont have to walk very far. then go lose you breakfast on the hulk! lol

Yes Confisco's is the only place for a meal with characters.

I believe that there is a character meal at one of the hotels but I can't remember which one.

The Royal Pacific Hotel.

I copied this from a reply I made to a thread last week:

We stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel this past weekend and ate at The Kitchen on Saturday night.
They have a character meal with Scooby Doo and Woody Woodpecker.
No buffet for the adults (we ordered off the regular menu), but there was an all-you-can-eat buffet for the kids.
For $8.95, there was salad/toppings, strawberries, chicken strips, french fries, quesadillas, taco meat, nachos/toppings, and huge cookies.
They still offer the regular kids' menu, too, if your kids wouldn't like the buffet.
The restaurant was only about 1/2 full and the characters came by several times.
I'm pretty sure it's only offered on Saturday nights from 6-9 PM and you'd call the Hard Rock Hotel for reservations.
The Kitchen also has a little play area called "The Crib," where they have a tv (playing Nick cartoons) and some toys.
Our kids ate their food, then went to play a little - Kind of nice for my DH and myself to have about 15 minutes alone after our vacation as a family!
Our bill was around $80, including tip. Just beware - The kids' buffet and kids' meals don't include drinks and they were $2.50 each, the same as adult drinks.
We had a great time and I would recommend the restaurant if your kids like Scooby and Woody!
Enjoy ...

Can anyone attend the character meals at the hotels?

Anyone have a list of ALL the possible Universal character meals?

What characters show up for the Confisco's character meal? Only
spiderman and cat in the hat? Do others ever show up?

As far as I know only three character meals are available. The breakfast at Confisco, the dinner at the Kitchen and the Islands Dining room at Royal Pacific. No one can give you a complete list because there are different characters each time. Spiderman and Cat in the Hat are "for sure" characters at Confiscos. The others vary.
