I’ve only ever eaten breakfast at Crystal Palace, and have been largely pleased with my experience each time. Now, before you get all “TeacherManJoe said it’s good, so let’s go!” (totally something everyone says), I will say that there is not a ton here that blows you away. It’s a simple, straightforward Disney buffet breakfast for the most part. Good, plentiful, and will do the job. As long as you temper expectations, you should be pleased.
I give this breakfast a bonus for both the fact that you get too see Winnie the Pooh and the crew here, which we are big fans of. Additionally, this is a primo location in the park, perfectly right there when you go down Main Street, but not so far in that the group gets distracted by rides yet. Fuel up for breakfast, hug a bear or a piglet, and then off you go to your Magic Kingdom day!
Pros:
Good location Winnie the Pooh and friends! Good does what you need it to doCons:

The food is just okay, but where else can you meet the whole Hundred Acre Crew?

We have gone to Crystal Palace on every trip. This year we decided to have breakfast there. It was very good, nice selection, tasty food. However, it was very expensive, especially for those of us travelling from Canada. When all was said and done with the tip and exchange rate, this breakfast cost us $180 for 3 Adults (incl. 10 year old) and 1 Child. As good as it was...$180 for breakfast is hardly worth it. On the positive, with our 8am reservation we got into the park early and walked right onto 7 Dwarves Mine after breakfast, got a great pic in front of the castle without crowds, and got pictures of my daughter with Pooh and Friends to add to our collection over the years.

My family took our mom on her first Disney trip this past February and I took advantage of an early ADR so that we could get into MK early and get castle pictures without crowds. That alone was worth the meal. We only waited about 15 minutes past our ADR and we were lucky to be seated in a corner. The food was buffet fare and we can't complain, but we weren't blown away or anything. Since it was her first trip mom was very excited to see characters, we were walked past TWICE because we didn't have children at our table. Had to wait for the table after us to finish then ask them to come back. Added to that was how noisy it was, we could barely hear each other from across the table. The whole place echoes like a gymnasium. But, I would still go back if we could get in before rope drop.
Pros:
Early Park Entry, Mickey WafflesCons:

i love Winnie the Pooh and this is the only reason we eat here. The food, like all of the food in Disney World, other than Be Our Guest, is bad.
The place is always super crowded. they could lose a few tables and make it more enjoyable.
The wait staff looks miserable except when they interact with you. Watch them.
They walk around unhappy and then they walk up to you and put on a smile. I know it's not an easy job, but do something else if you aren't happy.

We like getting into MK early and taking pictures on Main Street with hardly any other people in them, so an early breakfast at Crystal Palace is great. The food is fresh and good, the servers are efficient, and the building is beautiful. Since we are adults, we don't worry about time with the characters, but we saw all of them on May 3 and had plenty of time for pictures. The only downside is the price. It seems like a lot for breakfast.
Pros:
Restaurant is gorgeous, food is plentifulCons:
Expensive for breakfastReviewed by roneeh Review Date: 03/26/2014

Food was pretty good but a lot of the typical breakfast foods. Pooh's puffed French toast was very good and a favorite also the omlet station was good but had a line that I jumped out of twice because the characters were coming to the table and we didn't want to miss our turn to get pictures. I felt $100 for 2 adults, 10 year old and 14 year old was pretty high for breakfast as our family isn't huge breakfast eaters. We will probably save our money and spend a little more for a character dinner or lunch next time.

There were plenty of food options at this breakfast, that's for sure! We especially enjoyed the "create-your-own" omelet option and the french toast. Some of the food was a little too onion-y for our taste, but overall, we enjoyed the experience.
Pros:
