Should never have taken them away. I know for some it's hit and miss, but last year it was one of the highlights of our holiday. Complete and utter madness and borderline impossible to get the kids to calm down and eat, but great fun nonetheless. Food was better than the (albeit low) expectations I had too.

Plus it was always nice to see people having character meets when you walk past in the morning on the way into the park.

Really hope they have the cute chef outfits like they do in the states and Hong Kong , instead of just basically meeting a few characters from the fab five or Winnie The Pooh again . If they do have the special chef outfits then I would make this a must do but if its plain old cafe mickey again id pass. Completely understand the appeal for some people though and I agree with the returning characters if its another source of income again for DLRP . Just my thoughts
Next Trip 28 Sep - 5 October 18 :) :)

I hope this is true and is re-introduced before the end of June. Having breakfast here was something of a tradition for us.

For some strange reason our kids always hated character meals but I love nothing more than a Pluto tongue hovering over my apple pie !! Roll on September, maybe our now almost grown up  girls will be converted to my childlike pleasures :) I do agree about the outfits in Hong Kong, combine that with the breakfast selection and you are in Disney heaven although I'm not sure how broth, fried seaweed and fish fingers would go down in Paris at brekkie!!

From WDWNT:
QuoteA complete interior redesign was also rumored for the restaurant. However, this never happened, and the restaurant quickly lost popularity which resulted in a lifeless atmosphere.

We are happy to report that Disney characters will return to Café Mickey on February 18th. The menu should remain Italian, but the price will increase to €70/$86 per person for a 3 course meal, according to rumors.

The building, located beside Lake Disney, was previously occupied by The Los Angeles Bar & Grill. It was transformed into Café Mickey in 2002 during the complete overhaul of the shopping district from Festival Disney to Disney Village.  Characters have been a feature at the eatery ever since.

Café Mickey will be closed from January 29th through February 17th to prepare for the return of the characters.

70?!!! As in more thaN inventions?!!!!!
Food is going to have to be absolutely spectacular for that sort of price!

It certainly is eyebrow raising. They obviously think people will pay it (which Inventions basically supports) but the food will have to massively improve from what it once was. Previously the reputation was the food was average but the experience was great and hence worth the money. AFAIK it's getting a completely new menu so we'll see.
