Crystal Palace is located on Main Street in the Magic Kingdom. The sculptured characters in flowers and greenery greeted us as we came in. We had late lunch reservations but did have to wait briefly.
The windows and high ceiling give it an atrium-like feeling. Spacing between tables was good since the characters have to roam around, but the table itself was a little small for the seven of us.
A celebration parade is held (hourly?) for those celebrating special occasions. We were supposed to get a birthday treat for our table but it didn't arrive and we actually forgot about it since the buffet choices were amazing. Just have them make a note when you make your reservation and then confirm it with them when you check in at the restaurant.
Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Eeyore will come to your table and visit. Very willing to pose for pictures and goof around with children of all ages.
Service was good, buffet was well-stocked and the drink glasses were quickly refilled.
We opted for the lunch option to save a little money. It's still not a cheap meal, but it's worth the splurge.
