Today I am continuing my dining reviews with Cinderella’s Royal Table (CRT) with a little insight into our first morning at the parks.
I have pretty much eaten at every establishment at the Magic Kingdom, but never at CRT. So I got up early 180 days before our trip was to start to book my dining. The first restaurant that I wanted to Cinderella’s Royal Table. Of course breakfast is the cheapest meal of the day, so I made sure to book that meal.
We got the kids up early on Sunday, October 16th for our 9:00 reservation for breakfast at CTR! I was excited for two reasons, this was our first trip to WDW as a family of 4 (and Lilly’s first trip) and we were going to make it to rope drop. We have never done this before because we can’t get up that early. We took the monorail from The Polynesian to the Magic Kingdom. The line to get through security was nuts. We just sat in line watching the welcome show. Logan got excited when he saw the train coming into the station with the characters on it.

We finally made our way through security and decided we had a little bit of time to take our first family photo in the Magic Kingdom. I love the autumn decorations on Main Street. So we stopped by the scarecrows in the hub near the entrance where I spotted a PhotoPass photographer. We tried to get the kids to smile, but they were not having it.

We were running a couple minutes late for our reservation, and I couldn’t find the entrance to this place. We should have went through the left side of the castle, but we ended up going on the right side of the castle which seemed to take forever. After checking in we waited to take our pictures with Cinderella herself! Lilly was unsure of everything, but Logan was getting all of the attention from the princess.

We made our way upstairs to eat our breakfast. At this point Lilly was already ready for a nap. She was getting very grumpy. We made it to our table and we placed our drink and breakfast order. Side note – you prepay for this meal, I had this paid back in April when I made the reservation. Brian got the Baked Quiche (goat cheese, spinach and mushroom quiche). Logan got the Royal Children’s Breakfast (scrambled eggs, bacon and a waffle). I got the Traditional Breakfast (scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon and potatoes). Lilly did not get a breakfast since was 2 years old, which is considered an age where you don’t have to pay for your children’s meas. But since we didn’t pay for her, she had to eat our food. But don’t worry, this breakfast also came with a Pastry Plate.
My Traditional Breakfast:

Pastry Plate (sorry started eating before the pictures):

Logan’s breakfast:

Our first princess was Snow White, which Logan loves that movie. As a souvenir Logan got a kiss from her.

Next we met Aurora (okay this picture makes her look scary):

Then Jasmine came around:

And finally Ariel!

Overall, it was a nice breakfast. The food was good, but nothing special. I found the food to be the same offerings you can get at other breakfasts. The kids got little plastic stars that say, “ .” Logan got a sword, and even got an extra one to give to his cousin, and Lilly got a wand. It was nice to finally eat in the castle. My rating is a 3 out of 5 stars.
Coming up is Lilly’s first haircut!
