There are a LOT of ways that dining is going to look different when some Disney World resort hotels reopen on June 22nd.
Topolino’s Terrace Breakfast a la Art Characters
In addition to required face coverings, reduced contact menus, and cashless payments, guests are going to see different menu items AND reduced menus. And one of the FIRST Disney World restaurants to reopen is already showing trimmed-down offerings on the Disney World website.
Topolino’s Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera at Disney’s Riviera Resort is showing a smaller menu on Disney World’s website.
The menu at Topolino’s Terrace
One of the biggest changes comes at breakfast. The shared pastries (Chocolate-Chip Muffin, Epi Bread, Croissant, Seasonal Danish, House-made Jam, Honey Butter, Chocolate-Hazelnut Spread) are no longer featured on the menu.
Breakfast a la Art Pastries
For breakfast entrees, the menu has been reduced from nine items to six, with the Croissant au Jambon, Spiced Sausage Hash, and Wood-fired Butchers Steak gone.

Meanwhile, the Quiche Gruyere, Two Eggs Any-Style, Wild Mushroom Scramble, Sour Cream Waffle, Smoked Salmon, and Fruit Plate remain.
Topolino’s Terrace Breakfast a la Art Menu
The price remains at $42 for adults and $27 for kids — VERY pricy for a non-park character meal on property. But, guests may be willing to pay the price. After all, we previously reported that Topolino’s Terrace breakfast will be the ONLY character dining experience at Walt Disney World when it reopens, making it a very probable hot ticket.

The dinner menu also looks quite reduced. Previously, there were 11 antipasto and starter dishes offered, but now just four remain: Olives Marinees, Ricotta, Beets Barigoule, and Romaine Insalata.

As for entrees, the menu shows just six options: Rigatoni, Linguine Scampi, Classic Sole Meuniere, Braised Lamb Shank, Filet Mignon, and Tarbais Bean Cassoulet.
Menu items such as the Bouillabaisse, Herb Fettuccine, Tomahawk Veal Chop and others are gone.

Warm Valrhona Chocolate Cake, Pistachio Mousse, and Fruits of the Forest are still available for dessert. However, the Apple Tarte Tatin, Profiteroles, and the House Fromage Board are gone from the menu on the Disney World website.

It’s important to note that while the menu is looking very different, it could change again prior to reopening! This is the first menu change we’ve seen at the Walt Disney World Resorts ahead of select hotels reopening on June 22nd, Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom’s reopening on July 11th, and EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios reopening on July 15th. Menus have definitely been reduced at the newly reopened Disney Springs restaurants, however, so this trend seems to be in line with other locations on property.
If more menus are slimmed down, you know we’ll fill you in on all the details!

So bummed about the shared pastries! Those were the highlights! May not go now! Sad face…
The shared pastries being gone is disappointing, but the biggest blow is the drop of the Butcher’s Steak. That was a really legendary item on that breakfast menu.
I hope it’s not such a “hot ticket” that we cannot get breakfast reservations. We had them for Sept. 3 and they were cancelled. We are staying at the Riviera, so maybe we’ll get a chance to get the reservation again.
So very disappointing! We were there in January this year and it was so much fun and the food and characters were excellent. They’ve taken the very best and most special things off the menu!!! Even before this pandemic happened ever year the magic of Disney gets to be less and less. It truly is so sad. We’ve been many many times over the years and it has become where we really just can’t get excited about going anymore. I could just sit down and cry……
This restaurant was over-rated and over-priced to begin with. Now it is a definite removal from my list. Too many other options.
There was no reason to take the pastries out. If you are sitting at a table with others, it is safe to assume that they are your family. This is just being cheap. Shame on Disney for this. It is blatantly using Covid as a chance to give less for more money. I say this as a very long time Disney loves. I own DVC and have been going for over 25 year.
I had put Topolino as my “special night out ” and character breakfast picks. The breakfast pastries basket is gone as well as the Butchers Steak.. So our our anticipated reservations for breakfast. The dinner without the cheese cart and veal chop has lost it’s appeal. Sorry to see that so much of the innovated and enticing options have been depleted.
What characters are at the breakfast? Did they reduce the number available due to the health concerns?
PSUAth, same four characters in our experience.
Can you get the recipe for the quiche? So good!
