Cinderella and other Disney princesses are on hand during breakfast and lunch, while
the Fairy Godmother hosts the royal dinner.
Note:
Because of its location and ambience, a meal here is sought by everyone from
little girls who dream of Prince Charming to romantics seeking a more intimate meal.
The problem: This is actually one of the smallest dining rooms in the World, making
Advance Reservations a must. And you'll have your work cut out for you to get one—it
may very well take several calls (and a lot of flexibility on your part) to ensure a spot.

Tony's Town Square Restaurant
ITALIAN Inspired by the cafe in
Lady and the
Tramp,
Tony's dishes up lunches and dinners of pastas and pizzas in a pleasant if some-
what harried dining room featuring etched glass and ornate gingerbread trim. The lunch
menu includes sandwiches, salads, and pizzas, along with such entrees as pasta primavera,
spaghetti and meatballs, and the catch of the day. Evening fare might include chicken
Florentine, seafood in a spicy tomato sauce, or a New York strip steak. Kids will enjoy
the pizzas and plainer pastas. Original cels from the movie (including the film's famous
spaghetti smooch) line the walls. Additional seating is available in a sunny, plant-filled
solarium that offers a view out over Main Street.
Tip:
Dinner is by far the busiest time
to dine here, but if you time it just right, you can see the Wishes fireworks display after
your meal while remaining close enough to the park exit to make a quicker getaway than
most.

Liberty Tree Tavern
AMERICAN Step into a replica of an 18th-century Colonial
pub and its historic atmosphere, including oak-plank floors, pewterware-stocked
hutches, and a big brick fireplace hung with copper pots. The background music suits
the period. Lunch includes sandwiches, seafood (such as cured salmon and crab cakes),
sandwiches, salads, soups, burgers, roast turkey, and pot roast. Dinner is a set family-style
meal (now sans the characters) that includes salad, roast turkey, carved beef, and smoked
pork loin, with mashed-potatoes, stuffing, and macaroni and cheese—along with cherry
cobbler and vanilla ice cream to top it off. While the fare's not all that interesting, it is
appropriate to the early-American setting.
Note:
If you're looking for a buffet with a bit more to offer than just the usual fare,
you could try Epcot's
Akershus
Royal Banquet Hall
(p. 177) or Animal Kingdom
Lodge's
Boma
(p. 151); if you don't want to venture outside of Magic Kingdom, this is
your best option.
