Meal Time Monday - Cinderella's Royal Table - Breakfast Lunch and Dinner

Have you ever wanted to dine inside Cinderella Castle?  Of course you have, who doesn't!?!?

Cinderella's Royal Table gives you just that chance.  They serve Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner, and all come with a side of Princesses!

Disney's website describes the experience as:
"Cinderella makes your acquaintance in the majestic Grand Hall, before you ascend a spiral staircase to the banquet hall above. (A gilded elevator is also available to transport you to the festivities. Then, dine in a storybook setting surrounded by soaring stone archways, majestic medieval flags and spectacular stained-glass windows overlooking Fantasyland. During your time inside the castle, visit with classic Disney Princesses."
We have enjoyed both breakfast and dinner in the castle.  You get to meet Cinderella first for a formal photo session.  Then you head up to the banquet hall to be directed to your seat.  Once in your seat - like any other meal - they take your drink and food order, but that is just the beginning.  
When we plan a breakfast, we like to get the very first one of the morning.  This allows you into the Magic Kingdom before the regular park opening on most days of the year, BUT this is one of the most difficult times to snag.  Therfore you must be ready to book this 180 days in advance!  
This is a picture from Main Street USA before an 8:05am reservation.   We were also done eating by 9:00am (when the park opened) and got be the first ones in line for Princess Merida!

For breakfast you get a family style plate (picture above) and also order your main dish off the menu.

Then the princesses start working their way around the room.  They visit each table so you do not have to fight to see them.  They come to you!  One nice thing about this meal is the food is brought to you so you do not have to worry about missing a princess by heading to the buffet for food.

We celebrated Clair's third birthday at Cinderella's Royal Table!  She got a cupcake and the waiters sang to her.

Another fun tidbit about Cinderella's Royal Table - the girls receive wands and the boys receive swords.  The kids love these and they are something that you cannot buy anywhere else!

This meal can even accomidate large parties.   (But make sure you have your reservation priority list ready at 180 days out!) 

When you check in you get a ticket and if you have any food allergies you can see that they mark that very clearly.  The one good thing about a food allergy is you get to meet the chief.  They will come to your table and make sure to prepare the perfect meal for you.

Alden thought he got to use his sward to cut his stake.  (Silly boy!)

We have met Ariel, Snow White, Aurora, Jasmine, and Belle. (This is subject to change without notice.)

The food was good, but to be honest it is not the main attraction of this dining experience.  It is a combination of being IN the castle and meeting princess after princess without a line. The food is a very nice bonus! 


You can find the Menu here!  This meal is also 2 table service cedits on the Disney Dinning Plan.
