Character dining has been an essential part of the Disney theme park experience for decades, with the very concept of a character meal becoming synonymous with trips to the company’s resorts. These days, there are dozens of character meals spread across Disney’s worldwide properties, and it can be overwhelming to try to choose which to book.

We’ve scored all of Disney’s resorts worldwide — Disneyland, Walt Disney World, the Disneyland Paris resort, the Tokyo Disney Resort, the Hong Kong Disney Resort, and the Shanghai Disney Resort to pinpoint the most unique character dining experience at each of them.

Disneyland: Minnie & Friends Breakfast in the Park at the Plaza Inn

Believe it or not, there is only ONE character dining experience located inside Disneyland. Yes, the Disneyland Resort overall has a few more at its hotels, but guests wanting to dine with characters inside Disney’s first theme park have only one choice: The Minnie & Friends Breakfast at the Plaza Inn on Main Street.

The meal includes a buffet filled with made-to-order omelets and Minnie waffles, French toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits and gravy, breakfast potatoes, fresh-baked pastries, and so much more, along with views of Sleeping Beauty Castle. Characters appearing at breakfast include Minnie Mouse — obviously — as well as a rotating array of Disney characters.

Disney World: Story Book Dining at the Wilderness Lodge’s Artist Point

Due to its massive size, Walt Disney World features the most character dining experiences of any Disney Resort, including iconic spots like Cinderella’s Royal Table, Chef Mickey’s, and ‘Ohana. However, the title for the most unique of these experiences goes to Story Book Dining at the Wilderness Lodge.

Dinner features appearances from Snow White, Grumpy, and Dopey, along with a menu fit for royalty, including Royal Prime Rib Roast, Brother’s Grimm Herbed Chicken, Magic Mirror’s Slow-braised Pork Shank, Beef Stroganoff, Fish of the Day, and the vegetarian A Stroll Through Nature—featuring asparagus, leeks, arugula, and gnocchi. All of that is, appropriately, topped off by the “Poison” Apple, a dark chocolate-apple mousse, and the Fairy Tale Gooseberry Tart and Miner’s Treasures.
