  • Cinderella’s Royal Table is about as iconic as you can get when it comes to restaurants in Disney World -- you’re eating INSIDE the castle at the end of Main Street. But, are princesses and prime real estate worth the high price tag and headache of actually getting a reservation here? Let’s find out.

    I went a few months ago and Cinderella came by our table three times. The third time she reminded us that we needed to be home before midnight or the magic will fade away. What a cool way of being asked to leave 🤣🤣🤣

    In 2018 My wife and I spent our 39th Anniversary at CRT. She got a wand, I, a sword. Besides pictures with the princesses I have one of her with the wishing star and wand, making her wish. Our grandson has the sword, our granddaughter the wand, each has a star. She passed shortly after returning home from that trip. The wishing picture is one of my cherished of the 300 from that trip. Yes, it was worth the money, as well as Memory maker.

    My fiancé had considered proposing with the engagement package at CRT last year because I dropped some not so subtle hints. In the end, he booked breakfast at Be Our Guest before park open because Beauty and The Beast is my favorite Disney movie. We weren't rushed at all, and we ate in the Rose Gallery. After breakfast he walked me in front of Cinderella's Castle and proposed right in front of the castle as the park opened. Maybe for one of our anniversaries we'll go to Cindy's for a meal.

We had an audience with Cinderella before we headed upstairs, and we had 4 princesses visit our table throughout the evening. It was such a special birthday, the food was delicious, and we had an absolute ball. Worth every cent.

    Went in Jan 2021. Only offering a wave from Cinderella for character experience. Was my and my husband's first time in the castle, was my daughter's first trip period and it was the last thing we did on our trip. My daughter blew her straw wrapper at my husband, declared the mac and cheese looked and tasted like KFC (that's her favorite) but I would do it and pay it over and over to see how happy and excited she got at seeing at Cinderella and having her wave right at her. My daughter is extremely shy with people she doesn't know and straight up covered her eyes at ALL the characters at Hollywood and Vine (she didn't see a single one on purpose) but I had to hold her back from running to get a hug (unfortunately) I would still do it again. And will next time we go. 100% worth it for us.

    One of my favorite pieces of advice I got from you was to get a late reservation at Royal Table. First time dining there back in March, our reservation was at 8pm, we got to see and talk (from afar) with Cinderella a few times. My daughter was in heaven (she’s 3), and when we left we were able to get the best pictures of us and the castle!! ♥️

We dined at 7:00pm so we could watch the fireworks and had a window table. The interaction with the Princesses was wonderful. The expression on my Lil" Briar's face made it worth every dollar I spent.

We didn't have children with us, but I saw some adorable photos, with Cindy and small children. Snow White and Aurora were so sweet and friendly. It's great for a one time experience. Definitely don't book this until the full princess experience is available again.

    I’ve been to Disneyland over 30 times but I’m going to Disney World for the first time at the end of August into early September. Our first day in the parks will be August 29 which is also my 19th birthday and I knew before we even booked the trip that I wanted to eat here on my birthday. I woke up at 3am on the day that our dining reservations opened so that I could make sure my group got a reservation here. I knew reservations would be hard to get so I got them as soon as possible! I’m so excited to eat here, especially for the amazing experience. The inside of the Disneyland castle is nothing compared to this!

    We have a July reservation for myself, my husband, my 7yo son and my 3yo daughter. I am excited to take them! My son is excited to see the inside of the castle and my daughter is obsessed with Cinderella right now. I know she is at the age when she will feel like it is all *real*. I’m a bit bummed that we won’t have all of the princesses and that my 3yo probably won’t remember it, but we are throwing caution to the wind and going for it. Ha! Their grandma is paying for a special experience for each of them, and she wanted to do the boutique for my 3yo. Since that isn’t currently an option, this feels like a whole family version of the same “Royal” experience that we can all enjoy together. :)

    • @tessat338
      @tessat338 2 роки тому +1

      My sister's policy for Disney was to wait until the kids were four or five so that they would remember it. The lesson that we've learned from the pandemic is to not put things off. Your son will certainly remember. Your daughter might remember it with help from pictures. I believe that I have memories from when I was about three. The secret to memory building is for the kid to understand story narrative. A memory is just a narrative in which they are one of the characters.

    It was worth it pre-pandemic when you could still interact properly with the characters. I did it as a bucket list item in 2019 and even as a single traveller I loved it. They really take care of you in there. The Cast Members were great and one of them even took my phone and said he would get me the best photos from everywhere in the castle. Probably the only time I’d ever give my phone to a stranger! And I was given a wishing star and a wand too (made me a very happy 30 year old!) Nowadays I’m not so sure if it’s worth the cost.

    I've always wanted to dine at this restaurant, I was at Disneyworld a couple weeks ago for my second time and my husbands first time and of course it was booked up when I tried to make a reservation a week ahead. As we were walking through the castle I decided to just walk up and see if there was a last min cancellation and there was! We got to eat there and it was AMAZING. My husband was a chef and is a huge foodie and he was pretty impressed. The scallop dish was to die for I highly suggest!

    Regarding the price of these character meals, I've been trying to shift from thinking of it as a meal and instead to treat it like an experience that comes with food. So really you are paying for the opportunity to meet some characters and not having to wait on a long line. Plus you get eat during the downtime, which also saves time. Personally, I don't find it worth it, but I can see the value if you really want to meet those characters.

    We went in December 2019. Kiddo just loved the whole experience. However, as someone with a number of very strict food limitations, even Disney's very clear menu listings were a bit of a challenge. The chef who came out to my table at Cinderella's Royal table recognized my issue with half an explanation and listed off what would also needed to be omitted and proposed a workable but flavorful option very quickly. We used the Deluxe Dining Plan for the trip and basically went through this once each night, but this was my best chef interaction experience within the park hands down. I can only hope that brought that particular chef back after all of the shut downs were lifted.

    I am in the "Worth It" group. The life long memory that comes back every time the MK Castle appears in the news, or where ever is totally worth the money. The bragging rights alone make it worth it. The quality of the food, and the churn of the tables do not compare to glancing out the windows on a hot summer day, while you have a royal blue goblet in your had in a 2nd story air conditioned banquet hall with everyone outside wishing they were where you are now. Totally worth it. #1 on the memory maker effect list.

I quickly went through our dining options, and discovered that we could have dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table early in the evening. It was perfection. The princesses were a lot of fun to talk to, and the food options, while not the most exciting on the planet, were prepared well and served with a smile. A truly lovely evening.

I do not have children and from what I understand , it is expensive and they seem to rush you. Also, character meals do not appeal to me. But that is me. However, if someone has a child that desires to meet princesses , then maybe it is worth the experience. That is my opinion. I will take a night at Raglan Road or House of Blues.

    My husband & I ate at Cinerella's Royal Table during our last visit in December 2019. We booked a dinner reservation for the last time-slot of the evening so we could have dinner right after the fireworks. We also requested a window seat and after waiting a few extra minutes, they were able to grant our request. Although it was quite a late time to have dinner, we really enjoyed being able to eat our meal at our own pace without feeling rushed at all & it was so nice having a view of the Fantasyland Carousel right from our table. The food was mediocre and we likely won't eat there again next time we go - but I'm still glad we got to experience it once!

    Just noticed capacity at the parks was increased.
    MK was full to capacity well into July 19th and later. Looked a second time yesterday, and MK was available early July.
    Either a ton of people cancelled, or WDW increased capacity levels.
    With California and NYS going strong to remove all restrictions, I have no doubt WDW will be back to 100% capacity late July.
    Only if they can get their staff. They laid-off 30,000+ people and said they got about 80-90% to come back, I think?

    Me personally, I want to do this but also I want to experience the full experience. I book my trip last year right when shut downs were happing. I was at Magic Kingdom the last day it was open. I also booked the breakfast to meet the characters at the place on the Boardwalk, but that day it was changed to costume characters, no Flynn, Ariel, Eric. I was SO DISAPPOINTED. But understand the reason why. Hey AJ, just to let you know the adults LOVE the Princesses too. I'm almost 40 and LOVE meeting them. Rather meet them than Mickey. Thats why I really want to experience this, I'll go alone so for me its ok to spend 75, because its just me. I don't have to pay for anyone else.

    Several years ago, we opted for Akershus in Epcot instead and had a great time. We saw Aurora, and got a formal picture with her, and also Ariel, Snow White, and Jasmine. They came to our table a couple of times each and had wonderful interactions with the kids. Several of them even joked around with the adults. I have been to CRT as well and felt like the characters were not as reserved here. We felt more as if they were our friends. I've heard it said that the food isn't terrific, but having been to CRT, I'd say it was just as good.

    it's worth doing at least one time, I'd wait until all the princesses return before I'd book to get the full experience. As far as which option, I'd suggest Dinner. We've eaten here 2 or 3 times, however, one time it was during the fireworks show and even though we weren't next to the window, you could see the lights reflecting off the stained glass windows and hear them so that was really neat.

    We ate there the morning after the Princess Half in 2020…I didn’t stop during the run for character stops (except one, Panchito), so CRT was a great way to get pictures with my medal and a whole gaggle of princesses. It was my first real race and worth commemorating, it did feel special. The most expensive avocado toast ever. I’m more than happy with my quick serve mickey waffles for breakfast, so I don’t need to do this one again.

    Don’t need to ever do it again
    If I have grand daughters, Akershus has a plethora of princesses and 1900 Park Faire is sooo fun with the antics of the stepsisters, and you still get to see Cinderella.

It was entirely worth it each time we have eaten there. We especially liked the clock mousse. On our last trip in 2018 we were seated right next to the window in the center back window overlooking Fantasyland. I would have paid extra for that location!
