Minnie & Friends character dining at Disneyland Park. Dine with Minnie and other classic Disney characters over breakfast at Plaza Inn on Main Street, U.S.A.
Having a meal or breakfast with Disney characters is the highlight of many guests’ visits to Disneyland Resort. Here’s all the details on dining with Minnie Mouse and your favorite classic characters.
Minnie & Friends Character Dining Location
Where is Minnie & Friends breakfast at Disneyland located? Minnie & Friends Breakfast in the Park is located at Plaza Inn on Main Street, U.S.A. As you walk in down Main Street, you’ll find the restaurant off to your right with the pink umbrellas.
You will need valid theme park admission to enter Disneyland Park, along with a dining reservation. If your reservation is scheduled before or right at normal park operating hours, find the gate labeled “character breakfast” to be admitted in time for your reservation.
Minnie & Friends Character Dining Price
How much is Minnie & Friends breakfast at Disneyland? $44 for adults and $26 for children. Valid theme park admission is required.
If the price tag is tough to swallow, let me break it down for you a bit. I took my kids to have breakfast with Mickey & Friends once before, so I figured I would check out Minnie & Friends solo. Yup, lots of Disney character selfies happening here. I totally had breakfast with Minnie & Friends without my kids.
At first, I didn’t want to pay for all of us to dine with characters we regularly meet in the parks. But let me tell you, I had such an incredible experience at Plaza Inn Minnie & Friends character dining at Disneyland Park, that I am going again with my kids. It was that good.
I like to think of it as paying to see the characters, with breakfast included. It’s much easier for me to swallow the price tag when I see it that way. And truly, you are going there to experience the coveted one-on-one time with Disney character
s— otherwise you would just dine anywhere at the Disneyland Resort.

Obviously you’re here to meet all the Disney characters possible, and while the line-up can and does change, Minnie Mouse is a guaranteed meet and greet right when you walk in.
Before getting set up at your table, your group will meet Minnie Mouse here in front of her herb garden. She’s all set with her apron and ready for her close up. Hand your camera to the PhotoPass photographer and they’ll snap a few photos.

Minnie & Friends Character Dining Food
Breakfast is served via buffet style. I suggest getting several plates at with a variety of food at the beginning and serve those family style at your table, that way you aren’t at the buffet when a favorite character comes by.
I enjoyed a made-to-order veggie omelet with Mickey waffles
and a fountain drink. You’ll also find a variety of fresh fruit, pastries, cereals and more.
They also have ample juice selections, sodas, coffee and more.

Do you have a recommendation between Minnie and Friends at Plaza Inn vs Mickey and Friends at Storyteller?
I prefer Minnie and Friends because of the vast amount of characters and the photos there turn out better (better lighting!). But if you happen to have a day with no park ticket on arrival or departure, that could be a good time to do an outside of parks dining.
So we don’t need to pay for our two year old for Minnie’s breakfast, but do we still need to make a reservation for them? – (do they count towards the party size in the online reservation?)
You got it, spot on.
Do I need to purchase a breakfast for a 2 year old?
You do not, only 3 and older.
Is it like Goofy’s kitchen? All you can eat buffet?
That’s right, very similar!
We had breakfast here on our first Disneyland trip a few years ago and it was so worth it! So many rare characters and the interaction was great. I also love that you went solo, that’s awesome!
Hi Becky, I am glad you had such a good time there. It’s definitely top of my list for character interactions.
