food IS a theme park
🚨 THIS IS A RED ALERT FOR ALL BUFFET FANS! 🚨
Cape May Cafe
Cape May Cafe at Disney’s Beach Club Resort reopened last year, but it came back with some changes! Instead of offering a buffet for breakfast and dinner, it switched to a family-style menu. But that is OVER. Earlier today the buffet service here returned for breakfast, and now it’s back for dinner too. We know what you’re wondering — what about the crab legs?! Well, today we stopped by to see what it’s like! Let’s dive in!
Do you know what’s better than starting your Disney World day with a delicious breakfast? It’s a trick question — the answer is practically NOTHING.
Oh yeah, we’re ready!
Here at DFB, it’s no secret that we love a good Disney breakfast, whether that meal is on the go or a sit-down experience with a full menu and our favorite characters. And recently, we got the chance to stop by Cape May Cafe for breakfast, where the buffet service has just returned!
We’ve seen a lot of changes in the Disney World restaurants since the parks and resorts first reopened in the summer of 2020.

Restaurants have slowly reopened, character meals have come back in a modified way, and in the past few months, we’ve seen buffets return to Disney World. Today, buffet dining came back to another restaurant!
Here at Disney Food Blog, we’ve done a LOT of eating in Disney World.

Disney World hotels aren’t your average hotels. These are magical places where magical experiences, meals, and memories occur! They’re also places where RIDICULOUS things can — sometimes — happen!Â

We’re not talking random cameos from Disney characters, either. No, we’re talking about the MOST ridiculous things to ever happen at Disney World hotels, so buckle up!
The Crystal Palace has been open in Magic Kingdom for quite some time. But, since it reopened, this spot had been serving up a family-style menu, as opposed to its previous buffet offerings.

But, slowly buffets have started to return to Disney World. Buffets are back at Biergarten in EPCOT, and now you can enjoy ALL of your favorites at Crystal Palace buffet-style once again! We stopped by this spot recently for lunch and now we’re bringing you a full review. Should you try the buffet at Crystal Palace? Here are our thoughts.
As Disney World takes steps to reopen more restaurants around the parks, they’ve also started reopening buffets.
Welcome back to buffets at Crystal Palace!
Although dining already returned to Magic Kingdom’s Crystal Palace in December of 2020, the buffet had yet to reopen. After several other buffets have reopened in Disney World, such as Boma in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge and Biergarten in EPCOT, it’s now Crystal Palace’s turn!
Prost! In case you missed it, Biergarten in EPCOT’s Germany Pavilion recently became a buffet again.
Is Biergarten better now that it’s a buffet again? Well…
After Disney World’s reopening, Biergarten switched to a family-style all-you-can-eat menu, and we’ll have to admit, while many of the foods were the same as at the previous buffet, the family-style presentation was wonderful. But now that it’s reverted to a buffet, so how does it fare? Well, let’s find out.
Character dining has been making a big return around the Disney Parks as of late, even if the experiences look a little (OK, a LOT) different!

While Disney World has seen quite a few locations bring back modified character dining, now select Disneyland restaurants are finally re-introducing it as well! We’ve already seen what Mickey’s Tales of Adventure Breakfast looks like at Storytellers Cafe, but now we’re checking out character dining at another neighboring Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel restaurant!
