10 Best Places To Have Breakfast At Walt Disney World

Rise and Shine! It’s time to start a fantastic day at Walt Disney World, and what better way to begin than with a delicious breakfast? There are many terrific choices at the Walt Disney World resorts, parks, and Disney Springs, and many of these feature character dining too. If you decide to have an early meal before the park opens, you’ll have the added benefit of being in the park before other guests arrive, allowing for great photo opportunities and little to no wait once the attractions open. Keep in mind that these restaurants are very popular, so reservations are highly recommended. Here are 10 great breakfast places for a wonderful way to begin the day.
