Topolino’s Terrace Character Breakfast is one of my very favorite character breakfast in all of Walt Disney World in Orlando! I was lucky enough to snag a last minute reservation on my most recent trip. It is one of the newest character meals at the Walt Disney World Resort and has elevated the experience by offering a fantastic, quality menu with a beautiful view and classic characters. Read more for some tips on planning your breakfast at Topolino’s.
Where is Topolino’s Terrace Character Breakfast located within Disney World?
Topolino’s Terrace Character Breakfast is located on the top floors of Disney World’s Riviera Resort, one of Disney World’s newest resorts. Take the elevator to the 10th floor of Disney World’s Riviera Resort to the check-in desk. The Riviera is a beautiful European-style resort which opened in December 2019. Riviera is a Disney Vacation Club property, although both DVC owners and non-DVC owners may stay there.
The resort is on the Disney Skyliner route, so guests can access both Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios on the Riviera Skyliner route. Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom are a bus ride away. Guests at Pop Century, Art of Animation, and Caribbean Beach Resorts can also easily reach the Riviera on the Skyliner. If you are heading to the theme parks before or after your dining, it is an easy ride from Topolino’s.
While you enjoy Topolino’s character breakfast, you can look at the amazing large windows and take in the Skyliner and surrounding resort area. Cast members will welcome you at the check-in desk. You can check in at the front desk about 15 minutes before your reservation time. In general, you have about a 15-minute grace period after your reservation time begins.
How does Topolino’s Terrace Breakfast a la Art with Mickey and Friends character breakfast work?
You will need a reservation for Topolino’s Terrace dining room. Remember, you can currently make dining reservations 60+ days in advance of your trip. Your favorite characters circulate throughout the restaurant several times during the hour, and they are great to pause and pose for pictures. The modified character experience has returned to normal, so Mickey & friends can move throughout the restaurant.
Sculptor Donald, Painter Mickey, Poet Minnie, and Ballerine Daisy will make their way around the seating area. Be sure to bring your autograph books during your dining experience. You can use the QR code to access the menu or ask for a paper copy.
Breakfast a la art starts with your choice of beverage (including POG juice!) and a basket of pastries served in a paint bucket. Diners can also select their choice of entrée and sides. You can request more of any item to be brought out as you continue through the meal, although check with your waiter to see if they will be an additional charge. I loved having a whole carafe of artisanal-roasted Joffrey’s coffee to myself! Their French press coffee is also delicious!
What pastries are included with the breakfast?
Pastries include freshly made croissants, fruit danishes, and chocolate chip muffins. They are accompanied by honey butter, house-made jam, and chocolate-hazelnut spread. Yummy!!
What can you order at Topolino’s Terrace Flavors of the Riviera adult breakfast menu?
Adults can choose from the breakfast menu a choice of entree: Quiche Gruyere, Wild Mushroom Scramble, Smoked Salmon, choice of smoked bacon, Spiced Sausage Hash, Two Eggs Any Style, Sour Cream Waffle with syrup, Fruit Plate, or wood-fired Butchers Steak.
I chose the quiche gruyere which included a side salad of field greens and roasted petite breakfast potatoes with a side of Mickey and Minnie Waffles. The orange-maple syrup is a delicious accompaniment to the waffles!
My friend enjoyed the wood-fired butcher’s steak and let me sneak a bite! It was amazingly tender and well worth the price! Breakfast non-alcoholic drinks and cocktails are also available for order. Our neighbors raved about their Riviera Bloody Mary cocktails, so if that’s your thing, it would be worth a shot! Many also talk about how wonderful the Nino Franco Rustico Prosecco Superiore tastes!
What can you order at Topolino’s Terrace breakfast for children?
The kids’ menu dining options include scrambled eggs, Minnie and Mickey Waffle dippers, and fruit and yogurt. Their sides include roasted potatoes, fruit cups, sausage and/or bacon. My kids also loved the chocolate-chip muffins from bakery basket.
They also have their choice of a small lowfat milk and juice options. You can also order Mickey waffle dipper with plant-based sausage and plant-based eggs, if you have some allergies in your party. Our kids had their best experiences with characters at this meal! They loved the artist spin on the classic characters, a nice change from Chef Mickey.

Topolino’s Terrace is a signature table-service restaurant offering a character breakfast experience at Disney World. For this signature dining experience, breakfast is $24 for children ages 3-9 and $41 for adults (currently in May 2021).
I think it is one of the best character meal experiences I have had at Disney World! The character interaction was great, and the food was unique and delicious! You may incur an additional cost for additional breakfast items. Check with your server on the latest rules.
Is Topolino’s breakfast all you can eat?
Topolino’s Terrace offers a prix fixe menu with unique Italian flavors. After receiving your beverages and pastries, you will order an entrée with sides. Feel free to order more throughout the meal as you desire. Believe me, you won’t leave a little bit hungry!
Does Topolino’s have a dress code?
There is a printed dress code at Topolino’s, however, I would say that’s more of the expectation at dinner. Most guests wore park-ready, modest clothing. However, it is a nicer dining experience so I would suggest no tank tops, super short shorts, etc. The official dress code from Disney’s website reads:
“Men must wear khakis, slacks or dress shorts and collared shirts. Jeans may be worn if in good condition. Sport coats are optional.
Women must wear Capri pants, skirts, dresses, or dress shorts. Jeans may be worn if in good condition.
Not permitted are tank tops, flip-flops, swimsuits, swimsuit cover-ups, hats for gentlemen, cut-offs, torn clothing, and t-shirts with offensive language and/or graphics.”
Which characters appear at Topolino’s Terrace character breakfast?
Characters include Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and Daisy Duck. Dressed in their unique outfits themed with art and dance, the characters appear several times throughout your visit with music announcing their arrival. This is definitely one of my favorite character table service restaurants with the best breakfast and fantastic characters.
What does Topolino’s mean?
Topolino is an Italian name which means ‘baby mouse’ – how fitting!! 🙂

When the dining plan returns, Topolino’s Terrace dinner is a Signature Experience costing two Table Service entitlements per person on the Disney Dining Plan. The Character Breakfast will only require one.

What can I do at the Riviera while at Topolino’s?
The Riviera rooftop restaurant has a great view of Disney’s Skyliner while you are dining at Topolino’s.
