Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Kristy. I'm so happy you stopped by and even happier to hear you're planning a special visit to the
Walt Disney World Resort next month! I can't think of a better place to celebrate milestone birthdays. How wonderful!
Like you, I'm eager for Garden View Tea Room to reopen. I had an elegant afternoon tea there a few years ago, and I'm still dreaming of it! Unfortunately, there's been no news about if and when this unique dining experience at
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa will be available again. I doubt it will reopen in time for your birthday visit. I recommend visiting 1900 Park Fare as an alternative. While this dining location does not offer a high-tea experience, it
does feature a similarly upscale "feel." In addition to enjoying a wish-inspired menu at
1900 Park Fare, you can also enjoy the lovely company of beloved Disney Characters!
Be sure to request complimentary birthday buttons at the Front Desk of your Disney Resort hotel or at any Guest Relations location in the theme parks. With a personalized birthday button, you and your son will receive well wishes from Cast Members and Guests alike!
I hope this was helpful, Kristy. Please let us know if you have any other questions about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! We'd love to help you plan a magical stay.
