Hi Laura,
My family and I are huge fans of Character Dining. It's so much fun and provides a fabulous venue to interact with Disney Characters while enjoying a yummy meal too.
Unfortunately, neither the Rainforest Cafe® at Disney's Animal Kingdom nor the Rainforest Cafe® at Disney Springs Marketplace offer Character Dining. That being said, there are several fantastic Theme Park Character Dining as well as Resort Hotel Character Dining opportunities you might enjoy. Below I offer two of my family's favorites.
Chef Mickey's at Disney's Contemporary Resort. This location offers a typical buffet-style experience with cold and hot buffet stations for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Breakfast is bountiful and quite delicious! Characters include Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, Donald Duck and Goofy. They all come to your table dressed in chef-inspired outfits!
Cinderella's Royal Table at Magic Kingdom Park is my family's favorite! Princesses that frequent the restaurant include: Cinderella, Aurora, Belle, Snow White, and Ariel or Jasmine. We have also met Rapunzel there too. A Disney PhotoPass® photographer can take your picture with Cinderella in the restaurant's opulent foyer. If you choose to purchase the Disney Memory Maker, your picture with Cinderella will be included with all the other digital photos from the trip.
I hope you found this information useful, Laura. If you have any more questions, please come back to visit us again. We'll be more than happy to help you discover the true Power of Magic!
Ritzy ºOº
