Help with character dining

[Dazzledrop20]

Hello! I was wondering if anyone could help explain the character dining? We are visiting in November and have a reservation for Crystal Palace (reviews welcome!). I am just wondering how it works, do you get to meet all of the characters and how do they make sure they get around everyone if people are arriving and leaving at all different times?

Probably an obvious answer but appreciate any info!

Just show up about 15 minutes early. Don't worry as the characters get around to see each table and interact with the diners. Have your phone ready if you want to take a quick pic or two. Enjoy!

The characters keep making rounds so you should get a chance to interact with them all.

Only once did we need to speak with our server because we got ‘passed up’. On the first round we were up getting food so they skipped us. By accident we were skipped the second time. By that point we were finished and didn’t want to wait another 30-40 minutes for them to come back around (it was a busy breakfast at CP). We mentioned while paying the check and they had the characters come over shortly after. They try to keep track and make sure every party gets at least one interaction.

Our last visit to Hollywood & Vine they stopped by 3 times within about 45 minutes They were great too! Very entertaining.
