Some tables are closer to the street and some further back. Other people may be trying to do the same as you. I don't know if they allow you to wait for a particular table area.
***However, even if you are seated closer to Main St. there will be people walking by on the sidewalk constantly and others lined up along the curbside, standing during the parade. There are also umbrellas over the tables that block looking up higher. There may be other diners waiting to be seated that could be standing in front of the cafe area. All of these things will obstruct your view. The odds of seeing much from your table are really poor. If it was a good viewing area EVERYONE would be trying for it.
