Howdy, Kim! Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel and asking your question!
Hooray! I am so excited that you will be enjoying the Minnie & Friends – Breakfast in the Park at the
Plaza Inn. This character meal goes above and beyond, in my opinion, because the character interaction is simply unparalleled. There is a special park entrance for Guests with dining reservations before the park opens. Since Disneyland Park opens at 9:00 a.m. for general admission this Saturday, you will use the regular entrance gates. It will take you no time at all to mosey down Main Street, U.S.A. and to the restaurant to make your 9:10 a.m. reservation.
If you will be using
Disney MaxPass this weekend, keep in mind that you can make your first FASTPASS selection as soon as you enter the park. It might be a good idea to set up your first FASTPASS return time for about an hour after your dining reservation. You will also want to make note of the time listed when you can select your second FASTPASS. You just might able to select two FASTPASSES while you are enjoying your breakfast. Then right after your meal with Minnie, you can hop right on some of your favorite attractions!
I hope you have a magnificent time at the Happiest Place on Earth!
