Aloha, Alyssa!
Mahalo for stopping by planDisney to discuss one of my very favorite
character dining experiences,
'Ohana's Best Friends Breakfast featuring Lilo & Stitch! After all, what's not to love about enjoying the most important meal of the day surrounded by the tropical beauty of
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort while Lilo, Stitch, Pluto, and Mickey stop by to say 'Hello!'? Did I mention that Mickey is even wearing his tropical finest? It's seriously the best!
With such a memorable crew of characters at this particular dining experience, I completely understand your desire to ensure that your family will be able to enjoy quality time with each of them, so I'm happy to share that nobody gets left behind or forgotten at 'Ohana! Because character interactions are part of the experience, Mickey, Pluto, Lilo, and Stitch make sure to stop by every table, regardless of the time. In fact, I've found that having a later reservation can actually be advantageous because there tend to be fewer Guests dining which sometimes allows characters to spend a bit more time with you. One of my very favorite character dining experiences was a result of a last-minute, late-night dinner reservation with some fellow panelists at
Garden Grill Restaurant in which each character stopped by our table multiple times as the restaurant emptied, and we were even treated to a few quality dance moves from Dale. It was a raucous good time, for sure.
In my experience, Alyssa, Guests come to the Best Friends Breakfast for the characters, but they linger for the
food! Between the pineapple-coconut breakfast bread, POG Juice, and Stitch waffles, it's such a deliciously unique meal, and although it's not included in the All-You-Care-To-Enjoy pricing, I also highly recommend trying one of the character-themed smoothies, while my husband wouldn't want adults to miss the Polynesian Red Eye.
I hope this information was helpful, Alyssa, and that you are proud of yourself for snagging such a highly sought-after reservation. Feel free to
stop back by planDisney with any other questions that arise between now and August. We're happy to help!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
