A family of five kicked off their first morning at Disneyland with a nearly four-figure price tag. John Tolkien took to social media on Monday to share a photo of the receipt from his family’s breakfast. The bill showed that he had spent $937.65, including a $150 tip. In the caption, he wrote, “Princess Breakfast at Disneyland with my kids. Almost spit out my coffee.” Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures, which is held at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel, is a dining experience at the Anaheim theme park where guests get to enjoy a three-course breakfast and activities with Disney princesses, like story-time with Belle. The meal starts with a tiered tower of appetizers like lobster rolls, cornbread and beignets. For the main course, kids can choose between chicken and Mickey Mouse-shaped waffles and macaroni and cheese, while adults have options like braised short ribs, deviled eggs and truffle macaroni and cheese. For the final course, guests can taste cream puffs, sorbet and other desserts. The price starts at $142 for adults and children ages 3 to 9, with tip and tax not included. Needless to say, social media users chimed in to express their opinions, some of which included kudos to the father for treating his children to an amazing breakfast, while others said he was crazy to pay the bill. As for the father, he just chalked it up to time well spent with his kids: “Service was attentive and enthusiastic, princesses were all trained pro actresses and spent a lot of time with the kids. I enjoyed it."
