Menu Highlights
Character Breakfast
Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and Goofy greet Guests in their beach attire at the Minnie’s Beach Bash Breakfast. The all-you-care-to-enjoy buffet includes:
- Scrambled eggs and omelets
- Mickey waffles
- Bacon and sausage
- Breakfast potatoes
- Fresh fruit and pastries
- Biscuits and gravy
The character interactions are wonderful for younger children, and the beach-themed outfits make for great photo opportunities.
Dinner Buffet
Dinner is a New England-style clambake and seafood buffet. There are no characters at dinner, but the food is the main event:
- Seafood — Steamed crab legs, peel-and-eat shrimp, mussels, and clams
- Carved meats — Roasted prime rib, turkey, or seasonal options
- Sides — Corn on the cob, red potatoes, coleslaw, pasta salad
- Kids’ favorites — Mac and cheese, chicken nuggets, hot dogs
- Desserts — Assorted cakes, brownies, and seasonal sweets
The crab legs and shrimp are the stars of the dinner buffet and the reason many Guests specifically seek out Cape May Cafe for their evening meal.
Dining Plan Information
Cape May Cafe uses 1 Table-Service meal per person on the Disney Dining Plan for both breakfast and dinner. Given the all-you-care-to-enjoy buffet format — especially the seafood-heavy dinner with crab legs — this is considered a strong value for dining plan credits.
About Cape May Cafe
Cape May Cafe brings the breezy charm of a New England clambake to Disney’s Beach Club Resort. Located just steps from EPCOT’s International Gateway entrance, this casual buffet restaurant offers two distinctly different experiences depending on the time of day: a character breakfast with Minnie Mouse and friends in the morning, and a seafood-forward dinner buffet in the evening.
The restaurant’s decor evokes a seaside Cape Cod retreat with nautical touches, striped awnings, and a relaxed atmosphere that perfectly complements the Beach Club Resort’s coastal theming. It is one of those Disney dining spots that feels like a natural extension of the resort itself — laid back, family-friendly, and comfortably familiar.
Cape May Cafe’s location is one of its biggest perks. The Beach Club Resort sits within walking distance of EPCOT (via the International Gateway) and Disney’s Hollywood Studios (via the Skyliner or walkway), making it a convenient stop before or after a day in the parks. You do not need a park ticket to dine here.
