Hollywood Studios has a great character dining experience at Hollywood and Vine with two different character experiences during the day. Breakfast features Disney Junior Characters and lunch and dinner is Minnie’s Seasonal Dining.

Hollywood and Vine located in Disney’s Hollywood Studios features 2 distinct character dining options. Breakfast features Disney Junior characters and lunch and dinner is Minnie’s Seasonal Dining.

This post will be focusing on the Minnie’s Seasonal Dining Lunch and Dinner menu, as that is what we have done a few times. We have not done the Disney Junior Breakfast yet.

Pricing:

Lunch and Dinner pricing is more expensive than the Disney Junior Breakfast Buffet is. The price is $63 per adult and $42 per child.

The Lunch and Dinner Menu:

The buffet is a variety of American items. From salads and starters to a wide range of entrees like roasted chicken, beef tenderloin, seared salmon, spice-rubbed pork loin and a vegetarian roasted mushroom-farro risotto.

Some of the starters and side dishes are beef stew, white rice, butternut squash and macaroni and cheese. There are other side options as well.

Some of the desserts available are a warm apple crips and seasonal bread pudding.

characters:

This is Minnie’s restaurant, she is the star here. Minnie brings some of her best friends to hang out with you during your meal at Hollywood and Vine. These are the characters you will meet at Hollywood and Vine.

The characters will be dressed seasonally for your dining experience. Minnie is dressed in her Silver Screen Outfit during the Silver Screen Dine.

Mickey is dressed in his suit for the movies during the Silver Screen Dine.

Pluto has his top hat and silver dog collar on at Silver Screen Dine. Goofy is also here to meet.

Atmosphere:

This is buffet style, not fine dining. They have different themes throughout the year. That is why it is called Minnie’s Seasonal Dine. Throughout the year the theme will change and so with the characters outfits.

Minnie Silver Screen Dine in the regular theme, but they do have a Springtime Dine and Halloween Themed Dine.

During spring characters will have on spring outfits. The phot op station changes during the season changes as well.

There is also a Halloween Dine theme in the Fall. Minnie and her friends will be dressed in Halloween costumes for this event.

Character Dining Pricing:

One thing about Disney is you will pay a premium for the experience. Character Dining are some of the most expensive dining options on Disney property. The food at these character dining experiences are usually a preset menu or buffet family-style dining. Typically, people review the food as good, but not the best as other non-character dining menus. That goes back to what we said about paying the premium. Always remember when you are making the Character Dining reservations you are also paying for the experience of meeting and interacting with Disney characters.

Hollywood and Vine Final Review:

Hollywood and Vine is a really fun character dining option. The seasonal changes give a good variety throughout the year for a fun experience whenever you visit. It is also the only buffet option at Hollywood Studios.

Overall, the food is standard American food options. So, there will be something there everyone can enjoy. There is a nice variety as well. With all the food options our family was very happy with this buffet.

The characters here are also a ton of fun. Meeting Minnie, Mickey, Pluto and Goofy is great, and you don’t have to wait in line to meet them. They will sign autographs at your table along with getting the signature card.

With there being a lot of character dining options in Walt Disney World, this is one we enjoy and have done a lot. Sometimes doing a sit down or character dining is difficult on a day you want to visit the park, but we find it is a great time to take a break and relax in the middle of the day.
