If you happen to be staying at the Wilderness Lodge, there is a walking path that will you lead you to Fort Wilderness. <em>(Editor&#8217;s Note: This path is currently closed as construction of Reflections: A Disney Lakeside Lodge is being built.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Trail&#8217;s End is an all-you-care-to-enjoy buffet boasting traditional Southern cooking in a rustic log cabin style setting.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Reservations are recommended and the check-in podium is outside on the porch, which has rocking chairs and a bench or two for you to relax on while you wait.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>To further the authentic vibe, the restrooms are located around the corner from the restaurant. Which means you will need to actually exit the restaurant and walk around the side of the building should you need to visit the little pioneer girls&#8217; washroom during your meal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-73641 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Outside.jpg\" alt=\"Trail's End\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Outside.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Outside-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We visited Trail&#8217;s End on August 11, 2019 for brunch. After checking in for our reservation, we only had to wait a few minutes before being seated.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I was given an allergen guide for breakfast, however there were also brunch\/lunch options listed on the back.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The allergen guide breaks down items by section and indicates whether or not they are safe for an allergy with a green check mark for safe to consume or a red slashed circle for not safe.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I was given the option to speak with a chef if I had any questions as well as being offered gluten free Mickey waffles (do they even need to ask?!). The allergen guide seemed pretty self-explanatory so I passed on speaking with the chef and headed to the buffet to see what looked good!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-73643 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Buffet-332x400.jpg\" alt=\"Trail's End\" width=\"332\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Buffet-332x400.jpg 332w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Buffet.jpg 498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 332px) 100vw, 332px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Pastry Island (aka Gluten Island) is clearly to be skipped. There was also a station of cold breakfast items. The only item marked as unsafe was the granola, however I would suggest asking for fresh items from the back for this station as someone had spilled granola outside of the container. If at anytime there is concern for cross-contamination, you can always ask for something to be brought out fresh from the kitchen.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>There were a few items at the hot station that were marked unsafe, but I was able to try quite a few: scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, cheesy potato casserole, breakfast potatoes, and tater tots. I also added some steamed vegetables, fruit, and banana syrup to the mix (for my Mickey waffles).<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Everything I tried was delicious! The Mickey waffles were cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The banana syrup had banana slices in it and was very sweet, however it was a perfect dipping sauce for the waffles.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The bacon was crispy and the cheesy potato cassserole was seasoned well.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Overall, a great brunch and I would definitely return on a future trip.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-73645 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Waffles-306x400.jpg\" alt=\"Trail's End\" width=\"306\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Waffles-306x400.jpg 306w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Waffles.jpg 459w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 306px) 100vw, 306px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-73640 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Allergy-Menu.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"681\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Allergy-Menu.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Allergy-Menu-400x133.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 681px) 100vw, 681px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The current price for breakfast at Trail&#8217;s End varies depending on time of year and day of the week, ranging from $15-$34.99.
