Crystal Palace

The_Crystal_Palace1 The Magic Kingdom has many different counter service restaurants, some of which are better than others.  It also has a selection of full service restaurants (and more have been added since the Fantasyland expansion).

Through all of these dining choices, our favorite Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom theme park restaurant is the Crystal Palace.  We love eating in the glass building and meeting our favorite characters from the Hundred Acre Wood.  We always love seeing Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, and, of course, Eeyore.  Somehow, we always end up eating in the Crystal Palace.  We’ve eaten there for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  Every time we go, we’re always happy to have eaten there.

The restaurant serves a fantastic all-you-can-eat buffet, with menu choices that change constantly.  You never know what to expect when you eat there.  I remember having some delicious key lime tarts there.  You normally find many types of meats, salads, pastas, and breads.  There’s also a huge section just for desserts.

Advance dining reservations are required to eat here.  The Crystal Palace is arguably the most popular restaurant at the Magic Kingdom, especially with young children that love Winnie.  There is always a line of people hoping to get in.

I would highly recommend trying out this restaurant.
