1900 Park Fare

Post by cousininmiami » Jul Tue 14, 2009 12:16 pm

Made reservations for 1900 Park Fare restaurant in the Grand Floridian for dinner this August. Has anyone been there, and what are the opinions? We have never been there and wanted to try something different for our first night.

We've never been there for dinner (was thinking about it for next February), but breakfast there is one of our favorites. Their food is very, very good, and if the character interaction at dinner is as good as breakfast, you'll have a great time.

It was a good decent buffet dinner. (Also for us a cheaper way to meet Cinderella for DD.)

The Strawberry soup is wonderful, I am drooling now just thinking about it!!!!

Dh liked the clams and the prime rib, dd like the pizza and mac-n-cheese. (Disclaimer, its been since fall 2007 since we have been here things may have changed on the menu.)

It's a very good restaurant. The strawberry soup is very good on pancakes and waffles. most of the food is straight American cuisine.

We've been there twice for dinner and would go back again if there was an opening for us but nothing. Do try the strawberry soup!

It is very good for breakfast and dinner. the characters are the most fun. The place had an upkeep refurb around mid 2008, after that they took quite a few items off of the breakfast and dinner buffets, sausage gravy and biscuits was one item. It use to be better in the past, but really I have no complaints. I'm eating there again soon. It seems to me that the focus has changed a little to be more about the characters and a little less about the food. But like I said, I'm going again and I'm not even that into characters meals. Do try the strawberry soup. Its like the very best fresh strawberry cream.

We had a late breakfast in 2006..very good. We had the free dining plan, you can get the smoothies with it then. I agree Strawberry Soup, yummmmm! American Fare on the food, good food too. Our service was ok, I think they had just had a busy morning. We had to request to see Alice..and it took quite a while.... Mad Hatter was ok..... daughter didn't want to see him.

I think you will enjoy it!

Only been there for breakfast, but I think that was one of the best character meals we've ever had. Food was also very good, but I don't think I've had a bad character meal at Disney!

I went for my bday March 4th '09. I went for dinner and it was great. The adults and kids had no prob finding somethin to eat. I love Cinderella and the gang and thats the only place that I know where I can see them all. They were great also and a cheap way to see them all at once. :wave:

Park Faire Price Increase

Post by kcookiebaker » Aug Sat 01, 2009 8:03 am

I was just looking at the menu on line and the price (if you aren't on the free food plan), has gone up since we last ate there. It's now $38.99 adult, plus tax and tip!

If you aren't seriously into the characters (and they are charming) then this can get a bit expensive for a family.
