“Casting! This is George at the character breakfast. There's been a mistake. We
were supposed to get the Assorted Character Package with one Mickey, one Goofy,
one Donald, one Pluto….”
Whatever the meal, characters circulate around the room while you eat. During
your meal, each of the three to five characters present will visit your table, arriving
one at a time to cuddle the kids (and sometimes the adults), pose for photos, and sign
autographs. Keep autograph books (with pens) and loaded cameras handy. For the
best photos, adults should sit across the table from their children. Always seat the
children where characters can reach them most easily. If a table is against a wall, for
example, adults should sit with their backs to the wall and children should sit nearest
the aisle.
You will not be rushed to leave after you've eaten. Remember, however, lots of
eager children and adults might be waiting not so patiently to be admitted.
You can dine with Disney characters at the Plaza Inn in Disneyland Park, at
Goofy's Kitchen at the Disneyland Hotel, at Ariel's Grotto at DCA, at the Storytellers
Café at the Grand Californian Hotel, and at Disney's PCH Grill at the Paradise Pier
Hotel. For information about character meals and to make dining reservations up to
