Hi there Colleen, welcome to planDisney from one Midwesterner to another! How exciting that your trip to the "Happiest Place on Earth" is coming up so soon!
I just checked the
dining reservations again for that entire weekend at the
Plaza Inn at Disneyland Park, and I am not seeing any availability for the morning like you mentioned. However, I do know that it is Mother's Day weekend, and in the past, there has been a special brunch to celebrate Mother's Day, and that could be the reason that you are not seeing reservations yet. There have not been any official details released, but I would definitely keep checking back often to see if a special dining event gets announced, it most likely will have different pricing than the regular "Minnie & Friends - Breakfast in the Park."
Regardless if a special Mother's Day event takes place, I always recommend for Guests to keep checking for dining reservations all the way up until their trip. Plans change for Guests all the time, and you never know when a reservation will become available!
It sounds like you have alternative reservations which is a great idea to secure as a backup plan.
Mickey's Tales of Adventure Breakfast Buffet and
Goofy's Kitchen also are great
character dining experiences for the family, so I'd definitely explore those as well as alternative options or even to add-on during your trip. We love to do a character dining experience on arrival day or a non-park day, and Goofy's Kitchen at the Disneyland Hotel also offers the character dining experience for dinner which we also love since character dining is usually only for breakfast. That could be a great way to end the day for the family!
I'm sending you all of the pixie dust that you're able to secure your dining reservations at Plaza Inn, Colleen! If I can help with any other questions or recommendations before your trip, do not hesitate to
follow-up with me directly.
Have a magical day!
Melissa
