While we were visiting Walt Disney World this past weekend for the Wine and Dine Half Marathon and to celebrate our daughter\u2019s eighth birthday, we had the opportunity to try a new dining experience on it\u2019s opening day \u2013 Chip \u2018n\u2019 Dale\u2019s Harvest Breakfast at Garden Grill<\/a>! Located in Epcot\u2019s Land Pavilion, Disney\u2019s only (slowly) rotating restaurant, Garden Grill, has long been one of our family\u2019s favorites for dinner. So naturally, we were excited when we heard that they would begin serving breakfast, and that the opening day coincided with our early November getaway.<\/p>\n

Chip \u2018n\u2019 Dale\u2019s Harvest Breakfast is an all-you-care-to-eat character meal and is served family-style, meaning that all of the food is served hot and fresh directly at your table. In our opinion, family-style character meals are preferable to the more common buffets \u2013 you don\u2019t have to worry about missing\u00a0any characters during a trip to the buffet \u2013 everything (and everyone) comes to you!<\/p>\n

The harvest breakfast is served in two courses, the first of which includes \u201cChip\u2019s\u201d Sticky Bun Bake and a bowl of fresh fruit. The sticky bun bake was amazing! It was similar to a cinnamon roll or monkey bread and was served warm in a skillet. The sticky bun was flaky, delicious and drizzled with icing. In our family\u2019s opinion, it was even more scrumptious than the giant cinnamon rolls served at Gaston\u2019s Tavern in the Magic Kingdom. The fruit was fresh and juicy, but let\u2019s be honest \u2013 it was totally overshadowed by that sticky bun bake!<\/p>\n

Next up was the main course \u2013 a large platter featuring scrambled eggs, bacon, ham steaks, hash brown potato barrels, and Mickey waffles. In addition to the platter, there was also a large dish of biscuits and sausage gravy. As far as first impressions go, the presentation of this meal was top notch, especially in comparison to the other family-style breakfasts we\u2019ve experienced.<\/p>\n

\"GG<\/p>\n

Everything was hot and fresh, and the meal was served with some uniquely delicious accouterments. The Disney-standard Mickey waffles were made even more delectable by the warm chocolate-hazelnut sauce that they were served with! The savory items were served with tasty condiments made with ingredients freshly sourced from the Land \u2013 including a salsa fresca for the eggs, salsa verde for the hash browns, and spiced apple compote for the ham.<\/p>\n

\"GG<\/p>\n

The meal was plentiful and delicious \u2013 we left Garden Grill stuffed and satisfied! Food-wise, this was definitely one of the best family-style breakfasts we\u2019ve experienced at Walt Disney World. At $29.99 for adults and $17.99 for children, this meal is within the normal price range for character breakfasts, and we were able to save a little money using our Tables in Wonderland discount.<\/p>\n

Characters present at Chip \u2018n\u2019 Dale\u2019s Harvest Breakfast include \u201cFarmer\u201d Mickey, Pluto, and of course \u2013 Chip and Dale! All of our character interactions were superb the morning that we dined at Garden Grill. Each character made sure to point out our daughter\u2019s birthday button and to \u201ccongratulate\u201d Scott on his Wine and Dine medal. Maybe it\u2019s just because we dined there on \u201copening day,\u201d but the restaurant was surprisingly quiet that morning, and all four characters stopped by our table at least twice and greeted us with equal enthusiasm each time.<\/p>\n

\"GG<\/p>\n

All in all, our first time experiencing Chip \u2018n\u2019 Dale\u2019s Harvest Breakfast was a huge success! We will definitely be returning to Garden Grill for breakfast\u2013 we would go back just for the sticky bun bake alone! I\u2019m getting hungry just thinking about it.<\/p>\n

Are you planning to try Chip \u2018n\u2019 Dale\u2019s Harvest Breakfast at Garden Grill? What\u2019s your family\u2019s favorite character meal? We\u2019d love to hear from you in the comments!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
