DaveInTN 3,247 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 They are brilliant when it comes to sucking every dollar out of our wallets.But let me get this straight. For $112 you get a balloon centerpiece (worth maybe $4), a tiara (you can get those at the dollar store...for a dollar), and a 6-freakin-inch cake. SIX INCHES?? That is a pretty small cake. Would feed maybe 3 people. And you can get a small cake at Publix for $10, and can make one for far less of course. So, for $112 you are basically getting around $15 worth of stuff.Oh, but the smiles on your little princesses face make it all worthwhile, right? Not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ftwildernessguy 778 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 About 25 years ago, we took our kids to eat at the castle while on a disney trip. That was back when you could walk up to the podium at the castle and make lunch reservations in the morning. It cost me 6 bucks for a hamburger and alphabet fries that the kids didn't eat so I did because I couldn't see wasting 6 bucks worth of food. Cinderella breezed thru once, it was a nice view, but I vowed to never return and I haven't. People are crazy for what they will pay. Now I understand that you have to spend a whole day on the phone with the dining reservation phone number on speed dial in order to get lunch reservations 500 days in advance. Insane. Oh well, that means lower crowds at Cosmic Ray's for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Actually, the cakes are a little more impressive than I imagined. The princesses on top look like they are made of fondant, not plastic figures. That actually takes a bit of work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 The cakes did look a lot nicer than I'd expected.I wonder if you can order them outside of this "experience"... and what they charge? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rdancemom... Pam 113 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 I like the shoe cakes from the bakery much better and you can order them for much less without a $112 package for a balloon & cheap barrette tiara. Notice how they put the nicer tiara in the big photo then tell you that's extra?Oh, and last time I checked dessert came with CRT meals so shouldn't the cake be included anyway or a credit for the dessert i won't be getting?

Bebecee 0 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 We were at the Fort only a few weeks ago now and cannot wait until we return! We have a newly-turned four year old daughter and secured our CRT reservation for 1/20 as a must on our park itinerary as part of a very princess day. BBB at 1140am, ride on the carousel and then a lunch at CRT for 1pm. While I was thrilled that our princess chose a non-Snooki version of the gel-coated hair and we skipped the dress (her choice that morning as we left our home in loop 1400), I was only slightly thrilled with our CRT experience. Loved the pic with Cinderella, loved being inside the castle and loved the feeling that all the tiny and big princesses and families were having a royal time! I did not love the food--it was less than royal and certainly disappointing. The braised pork was recommended as the best option and I now believe that perhaps it was recommend to get rid of it...yuck. I am thrilled we did it but it was certainly not what I anticipated and hoped for as our "inside the castle" moment. We loved dining with the princesses in Norway and perhaps the princess wow factor had passed us by by the time we dined at CRT. No thanks on the premium package...that would not have made for a better time for us. Our little family can always say we were in the castle. Once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted February 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Thanks for sharing your experience!We had dinner at CRT once - pretty much just to say we did it and to get a peek inside the castle dining room. It was definitely a fun experience, and being the only ones there without kids, we got a very lovely table for 2 by the windows overlooking the carousel.The food was.... meh. Not bad, but certainly not worth the money. We've had far better Disney dining experiences for less.But it was worth the experience to do it once.Glad your little princess had a magical time. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
campingpixi 11 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 I can't get over the 6 inch cake.. why so small? I know you can upgrade the cake but for more $$ Hubby mentioned this for our youngest DD cause he heard about it at work! Thanks for the info this is a big NO! for me!! I would rather spend $100.00 at chef mickey's on a cake for her!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rdancemom... Pam 113 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 We used to eat in the castle every trip when you could just book a normal dining adr. Stopped that nonsense after the third time we did the current "experience" type meal vs the old order-whatever-you'd-like-from-the-menu and enjoy lunch/dinner without princesses and that pesky stop to rob a bank on the way.Whether under the King Stephen's name or Cindy's Table, the place was never known for its entrees or especially good food. I always secured ADRs for clients b/c that's part of the experience but made sure it was just before the fireworks and told them they'd be better off ordering just drinks & desserts. Every TA I knew did the same thing at the time.The food has always been overpriced and so-so. Once upon a time though, before King Stephen's turned into Cindy's Table with the current character crap, the desserts used to be "to die for" :rofl2: and the specialty drinks were pretty good too!

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 I had a meal at the castle before it turned princess crap, and we LOVED it!! The food was great!! Rick and myself went to the princess dinner one time, and it was total crap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
campingpixi 11 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Since the reviews I have canned the idea of going there to eat!! I will stick with chef mickeys for my family celebrations :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
