Advice on how to use Tony's reservation to see parade?

[Nicnicnic.nic]

Going to MK in June with a 3yo and 5yo. Last time tried to watch the parade in May we were just miserable in the heat even though we waited in a spot with shade. Any advice for timing a Tony's reservation around the time for the parade and then maybe we can just use their patio or even through a window to let the kids watch?

One of the unknowns at this time is what time the parade will be happening. Sometimes it moves to 2:00.

We were there last spring and they let SIL stand on the porch with our grandkids while the parade came through (we had ordered and were waiting for our food).
