Best Friends Breakfast featuring Lilo and Stitch
A character breakfast featuring Lilo and Stitch, this character breakfast is American style with a Polynesian flair. Characters circulate between tables, take pictures, and sign autographs.

FYI: this meal is not a character meal but does offer music and games.
1900 Park Fare
Character buffet dining at Grand Floridian Resort filled with amazing food and meet and greet opportunities. 1900 Park Fare offers breakfast and dinner options with beautiful ambiance.

Boma- Flavors of Africa
Serving breakfast and dinner, Boma at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge incorporates flavors from 50 different countries, highlighting popular dishes.

Chef Mickey's
Chef Mickey's is a family favorite of ours and the whimsical ambiance combined with American-style food is quintessential Disney. Located in Disney's Contemporary Resort, the monorail runs straight through the top of the restaurant and is a great way to make your reservation on time.
FYI: At breakfast, make sure you check the pancake area for chefs that create giant castle pancakes.
