The Disneyland Princess Breakfast totalled almost $1000 for three children and two adults – just over 20 per cent of the pre-tip cost.

John’s post left thousands in disbelief with many jumping online to share their shock.

“Please tell me you have 35 kids,” one person commented.

Another wrote, “That’s ridiculous. So torn about going to Disney — could literally go to Italy for a month for the same amount.”

The Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures costs $142 per person and is held at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel and Spa.

According to the Disneyland website, guests have the opportunity to dine on a three-course meal while engaging with Disney Princesses. Additionally, the experience includes tiered appetizer towers.

Food options include lobster rolls, beignets, and cornbread.

Children can enjoy mains like waffles and macaroni and cheese, while adults can choose from scrambled eggs, braised short ribs, and deviled eggs.

Despite the hefty price tag, John admitted the overall experience was enjoyable, saying: “Service was attentive and enthusiastic.”

“Princesses were all trained pro-actresses and spent a lot of time with the kids. I enjoyed it,” he added.

The Disneyland saga involves the criticism from the firm’s granddaughter, who has accused the entertainment giant of portraying its iconic late founder as a “robotic grandpa.”

Despite objections from his granddaughter Joanna Miller, Disney is set to introduce an animatronic version of Walt Disney to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Disneyland California in July.

Joanna Miller told the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday that her beloved grandfather, who died in 1966, would have hated being turned into a talking mechanical replica.

“I think I started crying,” she said, recalling the moment she first saw the figure. “It didn’t look like him to me.”

Miller said she voiced her concerns early on, sending a letter to Disney CEO Bob Iger when the idea was first proposed.

She said she later met with Iger and the team responsible for creating the attraction, telling him: “I strongly feel the last two minutes with the robot will do much more harm than good to Grandpa’s legacy.

“They will remember the robot – and not the man.”

Despite Iger being “very kind” and despite his promises to protect her grandfather’s legacy, she said her request that they scrap the animatronic was ultimately ignored.

Miller added it “pains” her to call out the very company he created.

The icon’s granddaughter was speaking solely on behalf of her grandfather and mother, according to The LA Times.
