Crystal Palace at the Magic Kingdom is reopening this month! Let’s take a look at the menu – including some new dishes! Do you have reservations set up for your upcoming trip?

Crystal Palace Reopening

Crystal Palace is reopening! Although Pooh and the gang won’t be meeting with Guests, Guests can still enjoy a delicious family-style experience. That’s right, Crystal Palace will not offer a buffet during this time due to the health and safety measures Disney is implementing.

There have been many pop up characters meeting at the steps of Crystal Palace. We have seen Peter and Wendy, Mickey and Minnie, and even our friends from the Hundred Acre Woods! It seems very likely these pop up meets will stop once the restaurant opens next week.

New Menu

With all these changes come some new menu items! Here is what you can expect if you dine at Crystal Palace for lunch or dinner:

Starters include a Seasonal Salad, Buttermilk and Cheddar Bacon Biscuits, and Marinated Watermelon and Tomatoes.

Adult entrees include Crispy Fried Chicken, Fire-roasted Prime Rib of Beef, and Southern Fried Cauliflower. If those don’t suit you try the Brown Sugar-glazed Bone-in Pork Chop or Blackened Catfish and Shrimp!

Children entrees include Roasted Chicken Leg, Seared Catfish, Macaroni and Cheese, and Fire Roasted Prime Rib of Beef. Kids sides include Roasted Potatoes, Green Beans, Seasonal Fruit, Cheddar Grits, Collard Greens, and Steamed Carrots.

Shared family-style desserts include a platter containing Seasonal Fritters with Powdered Sugar and Chocolate Dipping Sauce, Banana Cream Pie, Hummingbird Cake, and a Honey of a Cupcake. Strawberry shortcake is the second option.

There are also a variety of allergy-friendly options for those with dietary needs. Be sure to talk to the chef concerning your specific needs! For more information about visiting Disney World with allergies, check out what Jamie had to say HERE.
