What is your favorite part about visiting Disney World?

Maybe it’s the rides like Rise of the Resistance or Jungle Cruise, or maybe you go to the parks for the delicious snacks. Some people love exploring and finding hidden details, too. But if characters are a major highlight for you, we’ve got big news!
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in EPCOT has officially brought back breakfast! This is a character dining spot that reopened in November 2022 with just dinner, but now you can have breakfast with the Disney Princesses again!

We checked in on the My Disney Experience app and when it was time for our reservation, we went inside.
Here’s a look at our table at Akershus! Breakfast costs $53 per adult (age 10+) and $34 per child (age 3-9) plus gratuity. Who’s hungry? ? pic.twitter.com/Lx5O0FwCnf

Disney had not yet announced if this all-you-care-to-eat meal would be served family-style or in a buffet. We can now confirm that breakfast is served family-style just like dinner here.

First, let’s talk about the food. You’ll start with a plate of cheese, meats, and pastries.

Here’s a close look at our plate.

The table will also get a bowl of assorted fruit.
We got a bowl of fresh fruit for breakfast too! Are you a fan of fruit on your breakfast plate, or would you rather have extra bacon? ?? pic.twitter.com/AaF93bLaDl

Yum!

Then it’s onto the main course with heart-shaped Norweigan waffles, potato casserole, eggs, bacon, and sausage.

Why have normal waffles when you can have heart-shaped waffles?!

Now it’s time to talk Princesses! On our visit, there were 5 Princesses rotating around the restaurant. They’ll come right up to your table to say “hello” and take photos! We found Ariel…

…Snow White…

…Tiana…

…Belle…
Belle has arrived! And she’s got some fashion advice to give about sharing a wardrobe with your princess besties! ?? pic.twitter.com/I6C1v6ETxx

…and Aurora!

We asked the characters some fun questions!
Belle said she’d swap wardrobes with Aurora, but is it a mutual trade? Well…?? pic.twitter.com/45Qp3nUkQS

We had to know which Princess they would trade wardrobes with — the answers may surprise you!
Alright, Tiana! Emma has the same question for you: whose wardrobe are you trying to trade with? pic.twitter.com/FQBfZhhrNX

At the end, we were given an autograph card with all of the Princesses’ autographs. This has been the norm at other character meals like Chef Mickey’s.

This is a nice way to have all of the character’s autographs in one easy spot.
