The Crystal Palace

Just off Main Street at Magic Kingdom is The Crystal Palace Restaurant. Crystal Palace Restaurant serves fantastic food, but what makes it really special is the fact that it is a character buffet starring Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, and Eeyore.

The Crystal Palace serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The restaurant is set up as an all-you-care-to-enjoy buffet. Pooh and friends are available at the restaurant all day. The characters walk throughout the restaurant and greet each table. You can enjoy your meal worry-free, as every character will visit your table. Don’t worry! You won’t be skipped. Occasionally the characters will lead a parade throughout the restaurant and guests can carry signs, sing, and march.

Catch Some Cavalcades And Distanced Experiences

During your time at Walt Disney World you might be lucky enough to catch a random character cavalcade. At non-specified times throughout the day, characters make appearances at pre-determined areas of the park. Pooh, Tigger, Rabbit, Eeyore, and Piglet have all been known to journey down Main Street on the street car. They are also sometimes spotted at the train station at Magic Kingdom’s front entrance.

At Epcot, near Journey Into Your Imagination with Figment, Winnie the Pooh is sometimes found frolicking the field catching butterflies. While you can’t approach Pooh, you still have a great opportunity to take several pictures and have a great distanced character interaction.
