How long is Disney character breakfast?

It is entirely up to you how long you spend at a Disney Character Breakfast. The one at Crystal Palace is a buffet, so you can get your food immediately and begin eating. However, if you want to spend time with the fabulous Characters, then it will probably take longer than the allotted 45 minutes.
