Mid-day: pre-made PBJ sandwiches, fruit, vegetables Appetizers: One or two, I can't remember hot appetizers a day, that ranged from good to mediocre. I remember a crab won-ton that I liked, this was a while ago. Beer/Wine available for a specific hour or two that we always missed. Dessert: Chocolate covered strawberries, various other little treats, sorry this was a while ago. All day: Sodas, water, coffee, tea, fruit, etc. At the Grand, the breakfast was pretty similar. The noticeable difference came at lunch, when they offered delicious finger sandwiches, smoked salmon, turkey or chicken, and vegetarian, and yummy warm mickey scones. This was great, because we were there at a non-peak season time, going in really early and ready for a break around lunch. Unfortunately, because we stayed at the hotel when it had reduced hours, we never experienced "Grand Hour" which is their appetizer and wine time. The food was a step up from the DLH, and I was excited to try the hot appetizers. Also the wine is supposed to be great. Desserts were very good, I can't remember exactly, but chocolaty and delicious. Cordials were offered after the parks closed too, which we thought we might like, but ended up being too tired.

Originally Posted By disneyme Stayed there in Dec. Concierge suite definitely does not measure up to those at Grand or DL, but well worth it if you have kids. Breakfast: fruits, bagels, sweet rolls, cereal, juices, coffee Approx 5-7: mini hamburgers, deep fried shrimp, cheeses/crackers, Smuckers PBJs, veggies/dip, cookies, chips/salsa, wine/beer. Later: sweets, wine/beer/water/tea/coffee/sodas. All day long: sodas and waters to fill your backpacks, tea/coffee, newspapers, movies to check out, PC available to print your airline tix. You can go directly there to check in/store your luggage, don't have to stand in lobby line.

Originally Posted By Dalia3001 At the DLH, that is when they had the hot appetizers. I remember they were good, I think there were two a day. Crab wontons I remember, but not much else. They also had cheese/crackers, the Smuckers PBJs, veggies/dip chips/salsa, wine/beer. I never made it to the "Grand hour," at the GCH which is around that time, but I know they serve hot appetizers which are supposed to be very good, and extremely good wine.
Originally Posted By nemopoppins >>>Someone mentioned that there are DVD players in the room, is this true?<<< These at least are still offered in the suites, even if you don't pay extra for concierge. But you don't get to borrow DVD's without concierge. With concierge you get both (for rooms or suites). Well, I was trying to verify this on the Disney site but when I click on Disneyland it takes me to Disney World.
