The Best 10 Buffets at Disney World
Walt Disney World offers a wide selection of buffets for breakfast, lunch and diners. What’s not to like about buffets? From character dinners to quieter meals, there’s a buffet dining experience to suit nearly any visitor. They offer unlimited food, a dazzling array of choices, and even allow you to sample dessert before your main course. Dining options at Walt Disney World vary immensely from food carts, counter-service restaurants, all the way up to more formal dining options, but the best option are buffets! Every buffet has something a little different, but the following is our list of the top 10 buffets on Disney property.
1 – Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue (Fort Wilderness)
While this is a dinner show, the wait staff at Pioneer Hall serves some truly delicious food. Guests are treated to salad and skillet cornbread to start. For the main course, diners can choose between finger-licking good pork ribs and fried chicken. You best save room for dessert, a wonderful, scrumptious strawberry shortcake!
2 – 1900 Park Fare (Grand Floridian)
1900 Park Fare offers breakfast and dinner and invites Disney characters to join the fun. At breakfast, Alice, the Mad Hatter, and Mary Poppins greet guests between trips to the buffet for pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, sausage, and even gummy bears! At dinner, Cinderella and Prince Charming join guests while enjoying masterful crafted meats and delicious sides. Kids can also enjoy a fun taco bar, too!
3 – Crystal Palace (Magic Kingdom)
A classic choice for Disney enthusiasts, Crystal Palace is a popular choice for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Guests are invited to enjoy their food alongside Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, and Piglet. I prefer the dinner options at Crystal Palace, as breakfast is similar to the options offered elsewhere. It also has the added benefit of having a good view of Wishes and Celebrate the Magic if you are lucky enough to snag a window seat!
4 – Tusker House (Animal Kingdom)
5 – Boma (Animal Kingdom Lodge)
6 – Hollywood and Vine (Hollywood Studios)
7 – Liberty Tree Tavern (Magic Kingdom)
8 – Cape May Café (Beach Club Resort)
9 – Chef Mickey’s (Contemporary Resort)
10 – Garden Grill (Epcot)
While not technically a buffet, the Garden Grill offers all-you-care-to-enjoy family-style food. Guests will be served unlimited servings of salad and rolls with delicious salted honey butter. For the main course, guests will be treated to fish, beef, and turkey, in addition to delectable sides of macaroni and cheese, stuffing, and seasonal vegetables. For dessert, the Garden Grill offers a wonderful fresh fruit cobbler. If all of this food isn’t enough to satisfy you, the Garden Grill also plays host to Chip and Dale, Pluto, and Mickey Mouse!
