Princess Breakfast or Royal Table? About This Page:

[luv2sail]

I'm trying to decide which we should do...The Princess Breakfast in Norway or the Royal Table at the Magic Kingdom. Any thoughts as to if one is better than the other? I'd love to get some feedback. - Thanks!

Cheryl,

We did both in January and liked the Princess Storybook Breakfast a bit better. The atmosphere is just so much more relaxed there. I found the food to be a tad bit better and our service was a lot better. Of course, all of this depends on your personal taste and the luck of the draw (as far as service is concerned sometimes).

We were seated immediately at PSB and had to wait at least 20 minutes in a very loud and chaotic anteroom for CRT. We will try CRT again one day - - DD did love it - - but not right away. We are doing PSB again in May.

Good Luck!

We've done both, and I would agree it's a preference thing. The first time we did CRT was about 4 years ago, so I don't remember the food in detail, but it was good. On our last trip we did PSB and liked that too. It was a little more cozy and relaxed, and we were seated by the door they came out of so we got them first! But as a whole, I would say it depends on the Princesses. If you want Cindy you really should do her place. I don't know if I've ever heard but maybe once that she's shown up at PSB. Now PSB had Princesses we'd never seen at Cindy's table. It's all in the priorities! Good luck, Ruth

The last three trips, we've been lucky enough to be able to do both, the food at PSB is definately better IMHO. The service was about the same, fairly good in both. The wait at CRT is definately longer even with PS's. That said the atmosphere of eating in the castle cannot be beat, it's simply magical! At PSB it is crowded, but the restaurant handles it better, whereas at CRT you do feel like you're right on top of the next table.
Either way it's an unforgetable experience for kids and adults alike.

Our favourite of the two is the Princess Storybook Breakfast - we've eaten there twice before and find the food to be better quality and the character interaction to be less rushed.

We've only been to PSB and the food was excellent, especially the chocolate danish to start as well as the delicious hash brown potatoes!(Don't be shy about asking for seconds!) We plan on visiting Cindys for the Character Breakfast in June, but we have eaten in the castle and the food there was also delicous. I know I haven't been of any help, but the way that we decided was by listing the princesses that would be at each and I let my girls decide -they chose PSB.

I've only been to CRT so I can't help you there. (by the way it was great) But, don't forget to call exactly at 7 AM, 90 days out of when you want to eat at the one you choose. If not, you won't be eating at either. They are probably the two hardest PS's to get.

We've done both and far prefer Cinderella's Royal Table for breakfast over the Princess Storybook Breakfast at Restaurant Akershus. We received excellent service at both locations but when we tried the PSB last December, the food we received was pretty dreadful. The breakfast meats were all very greasy and we didn't find any of the offerings to be at all tasty. In comparison, we've done breakfast twice at CRT and had delicious food on both occasions. Add to that the fact that you really can't beat eating breakfast in the castle and you have an unbeatable combination. We particularly enjoy booking an early breakfast and then hitting Fantasyland right after our meal while it's still pretty much deserted.

I've done both and PSB is by far better. Especially the food. I did enjoy CRT because of eating in the castle and they did give us champagne glasses and decorated our table for our anniversary. But I enjoyed the food better at PSB.

[Colexis Mom]

We've done both, a number of times now. I like each for their own reasons. The atmosphere is much better at CRT, as there's nothing like eating in the castle

However, we've had better food at PSB (and didn't feel so rushed)!

Good luck with your decision

We plan to try Princess Storybook in Sept, but in November, did CRT and the Cinderella Gala Feast in 1900 Park Fare, a character dinner. It was wonderful, and my suggestion would be to consider doing that dinner with the storybook breakfast. I hadn't thought of it before we made our PS, but the Gala Feast was first,and the Cinderella characters really spent time with our table. My DDs were enchanted! Then the breakfast came a couple of days later and I thought, "What if they recognize that it's not the "same" Cinderella?" The breakfast Cinderella wasn't nearly as attentive, so they didn't notice. But since you get every OTHER princess at the storybook breakfast, doing the Gala feast is one way to get Cinderella (and avoid duplication !)

We really preferred Princess Breakfast at the Ankerhaus. The princesses spent alot of time with my grand daughter who was in heaven the whole time. You should see my pictures. I'll post one if I can find it.
