Hello Chris,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Breakfast at
Chef Mickey’s is one of my favorite character meal experiences. I love the fact that I can start my day with a delicious meal accompanied by Mickey Mouse and his friends, and then take a 5 minute walk to have a fun filled day at Magic Kingdom Park.
Since you have a very early reservation my advice is to take a taxi right outside the main lobby at Disney’s Pop Century Resort. My family has already done this and it was very convenient, as we were able to leave the resort only 20 minutes before our reservation. In the early hours of the morning, especially if you are traveling with children, being able to sleep in a little longer makes a big difference.
One final tip: If you are planning on visiting
Magic Kingdom Park on the same day, and since you have an early breakfast reservation, you can try to catch
Let the Magic Begin, the new opening ceremony at Magic Kingdom Park where Mickey and friends welcome Guests for the day with a royal greeting. Festivities start 5 minutes prior to park opening right in front of Cinderella Castle. Guests are allowed to walk down Main Street U.S.A. one hour before park opening.
I hope this helps you while planning. Please stop by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with more questions.
Best magical wishes,
Thiana
