Pinvestigator Cody, of the Global Disney Pinvestigator Blog, is back with another round of comments and photos about a recent meal. This one, breakfast with Mickey and Friends at ‘Ohana, is one of his favorites; you’ll see why when you see these amazing photos! Thanks, Cody!
‘Ohana means “family,” and the restaurant stretches that feeling throughout the meal! Opening at 7:30am, we arrived at 7:20 for a 7:40 Advanced Dining Reservation (ADR). There were about 20 families in front of us waiting to check in, but we were the second family to be seated (they really do pay attention to those ADR times!)
The hostess took us to our table, giving us a short tour of the restaurant along the way. We briefly stopped by the open kitchen where the hostess took our appetizer plate from the rows and rows of Pineapple and Cinnamon Raisin Bread (both are delicious, by the way), explaining that giving bread to family is one of the ‘Ohana customs celebrated at the restaurant.
We sat at our table, which included a great view of Cinderella Castle.
Right away, a server came out with our “POG Juice” — Orange, Pineapple, Guava! It was delicious.
Not less than 5 minutes later, we got our food. It’s served family-style at ‘Ohana, with all-you-can-eat bacon, eggs, sausage, and potatoes.
Another server also came around regularly with a bowl of Mickey Waffles, hot out of the “iron.”
Additionally, we received a small fruit platter, with pineapple, cantaloupe, grapes, and more.
Finally, the characters made their appearances! They were great and spent an equal amount of time at each table. Every 30-45 minutes is the ‘Ohana Family Parade, where the characters invite everyone to dance and sing and “shake!”, all to the song “Hawaiian Rollercoaster Ride.”
Overall the meal was really enjoyable, and definitely delicious. This has to be my FAVORITE
Disney resort character breakfast.

‘Ohana is one of my all-time favorite meals at Disney! The Monte Kristo at Disneyland is my favorite, though!

Are Mickey and Pluto still making appearances at ‘Ohana for breakfast? The official ‘Ohana page on Disney’s website only says Lilo and Stitch. Would love a pic w/ Mickey in the Hawaiian shirt!
Catherine says
Yeah !! Would consider this if Pluto & Mickey are going to be there !! Not listed on Disney’s site. Looks fun for my son !!

Was at the character breakfast yesterday 6/21/19 was very disappointed. The food was fine, but I felt we were rushed through the breakfast. Our reservation was at 7:50 and we were out by 8:20. They did nothing with the kids . Last time they had a little parade and followed the characters around with music. For what they charge I was very disappointed.
