Where do we find Pooh?

[Twinkies]

My Daughter loves Pooh (she's 8 and has loved this character since she was a baby) and I've read the place to find him is at the Crystal Palace.

My question is: is he there pretty much most of the day or how do I find out what time he's likely to be there?

Is there any chance of making a PS since we're going to be at MK on Oct 8th?

Any suggestions as to how to get a picture with this character?


Thank you!

Good news! He's there ALL DAY! And so is Piglet, Tigger, & Eeyore! Also, they come around to each table at least every 45 minutes. So pictures will be easy to come by.

Yes you can make a PS for the character meals at Crystal Palace.

Pooh and friends are also generally available in Mickey's Toontown Fair inside the Judge's Tent (enter through Mickey's Country House).

We did Crystal Palace in August - had a early dinner PS (like 4:20). The characters all came by our table 2 -3 times since the restaurant was not yet crowded.

to have any chance of eating there, or is there a good time to get in without one?

We're completely willing to eat at an off time! (oh yeah, and we'll be there for the No So Scary Halloween Party too)

I'll call tomorrow but this late, I don't have high hopes of a PS.

Thanks for all your help!

Find Pooh and his friends in Animal kingdom as you go toward dinosaur. He has a specific place there. Magic Kingdom he is in the tent at toontown fair. He is really easy to get. He is also at the hat in MGM most of the time. He is sometimes on the character bus in epcot.

Last time we were there, Pooh, Eyeore (and maybe Piglet) could be found in the Shoppes in the UK in the World Showcase. Great photo op if its not too crowded. The characters will spend lots of time with your kids. I've gotten great photos with both Pooh and Eyeore.

If I were you I'd give a PS a try. It doesn't hurt to call.

in AK just before going over the bridge to Dino Land on the right there is a place that pooh, eyore and tigger take pictures. I have been there three times over the years (I'm a tigger fan) and never has there been a line to get a photo!

We got a lunch PS for CP the night before. Its a GREAT character meal and the food there is awesome. We like it (the food) better than Chef's Mickey's. If you have a Pooh Lover this is the place to go !!! I've been for breakfast and lunch and enjoyed both very much.

I have luck in the Mens Room


Sorry - Had to!


Actually - Chrystal Palace is the best place to find him! Good food there too!

We made our Crystal Palace breakfast PS for 8:15 on a non-EE day. It's really fun to get into the park before it opens. Then when you are done with the meal and characters, you can be first in line for your favorite rides.

At the Toy Shoppe in Epcot's UK, there is quite a bit of Pooh things. The characters are inside and outside. We saw eeyore outside.

I think the best place to see Pooh (and Piglet, Tigger, & Eeyore) is at the Crystal Palace. All the meals there are good, but I think that breakfast is the best.

As for PS's, I would go ahead and try to get them now. I've been able to get them about 2 weeks ahead of time, although available times may be limited. Just don't wait until the day of the meal, I've seen them turn away people that didn't have PS's.

Most definitely go to CP. We also saw Pooh with absolutely no one around in Epcot at the Toy store in the UK. There is a greeting area in the back, you can always ask a CM when Pooh is expected to be around. He was just standing in the store all by himself. My DD 10 is a Pooh freak too, she has every Pooh stuffed animal, Pooh posters, wears Pooh clothes. She is in 5th grade now and everyone knows she likes Pooh and kids tease her but she could care less. She started collecting Pooh pins and has a bulletin board full. We ordered cheap pins online and she traded them for the different Santa Poohs from each country, she had a lot of luck with finding them on the CM's lanyards. We also got a white baseball hat that she brought to CP and a little POOH backpack she only wears at Disney and had the characters sign them with fabric markers. Another fun thing we do when we visit characters is bring them little gifts. She had some Pooh themed Happy Meal toys and she brought them for the characters. They were little bobble heads -- Eeyore didn't understand that it was for him, so she gave it to the little toddler at the next table and that child was thrilled. We have brought a little honey pot for Pooh and she brought Tigger a gift once. You get a lot of fun character interaction that way. Have fun!!

As a previous poster said you can find him in several places, but the UK in EPCOT is the most fantasy like. I caught him by accident in a Gift Shop with really pretty music playing in the backround. It made it feel like you were in his world.

It was very memorable.
