The Secret Character Breakfast Nobody Knows About in Disney World

The Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Disney World has been rated as the #1 hotel in Orlando multiple times.

This upscale hotel boasts 423 posh rooms as well as a few restaurants and lounges that have worked their way into the hearts of many visitors. The best part? Like other restaurants at Disney World hotels, you don’t need a hotel reservation to dine at some of them. Today, we’re taking you along with us to check out a fan-favorite. 

Located at the Four Seasons is Ravello, a sleek Italian restaurant where you can enjoy the Good Morning Breakfast with Goofy and His Pals!

This is a breakfast buffet with Disney characters that happens every Thursday and Saturday, and select Tuesdays around the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.

Reservations here are required and are available from 7AM to 11AM. Now, about those characters…

Here, you can meet Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy! The special part about Ravello is that the breakfast buffet isn’t as crowded. Therefore, you can have more time to have meaningful connections with the characters. We attended the breakfast right at 7AM when the restaurant opened. It was really just us at the restaurant and so the time we got to spend with the characters was even more fun.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is great. It reflects the upscale atmosphere that you’ll find throughout the Four Seasons Resort with some urban Italian flair.

It’s sleek, posh, and quiet compared to other character breakfasts we’ve done. You’ll have the option to sit at either a table or a booth. One of our favorite things about the space was the natural light that streams in through the beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows.

There are also plenty of spaces where you can interact with the characters.

As for the food, it was AMAZING. For buffet food, it was seriously top-notch. Traditional Italian and American-inspired breakfast foods were available. there were plenty of options to choose from — and we loved the variety of pastries.

Our favorite thing that we had was a portion of the chorizo eggs. It was an elevated buffet experience overall.

For the price and quality of food, the best comparison to the experience is that of Topolino’s Terrace at Disney’s Riviera Resort. However, we’d be more inclined to visit Ravello over Topolino’s because of the great food and better one-on-one interaction with the characters. The only thing Ravello is missing is a steak and egg dish!

So… Should you make a reservation? We’d say that it’s absolutely worth it. The food is phenomenal, the character interactions made our day, and it’s a much more peaceful start to the day because it’s much less crowded.

Plus, for a lot of folks, this could be a great way to check out the Four Seasons without the hefty price of staying there. It’s seriously one of the BEST character breakfasts we’ve ever done.

We’ll continue to keep you updated with more Disney news and advice, so make sure to follow along for more so that you’re always in the loop. See you next time!
