Be Our Guest breakfast... exiting test mode yet?

[disco.boy]

Wondering when BOG is going to start allowing breakfast ADRs past the June 18 date. Anyone know? Or are they just going to end the test and be done with it?

Or maybe it's been available for ADRs and I've been super unlucky to not get one for my November WDW vacation... that wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Have a look at this thread on the restaurant board: http://www.disboards.com/threads/bog-breakfast-just-thought.3418485/

Kind of looks like it will end, at least in its current form.

They've already extended beyond June 18 to July 18. But nothing announced after that.

According to Disney's site breakfast reservations can be made up to 90 days in advance.

Key words being "up to" meaning no more than 90. Breakfast is unavailable past July 18 even though it's well within 90 days.

In a normal situation. BOG Breakfast is in test mode that so far has an end date.

Interesting. Somewhat disingenuous to suggest on the site up to 90 days if they have no intent on that being the case.

Well didn't they do this with the lunch? I'd expect it to be continued as its already been extended once.

It was 90 days when it first opened. And it's still a true statement since they say "up to". And given it's a "test" any statements may very well not apply that apply to restaurants that are permanent. It's no different than all maps and guides showing attractions that when you arrive are down for maintenance. All Disney fine print gives them outs.

Yes but the difference is lunch was highly successful from day one and had folks waiting over an hour for standby every day. I think it kept getting extended until they could decide if they wanted to deal with FP+ or actually start down the path for ADRs for a quick service.

With breakfast they made a lot of mistakes and now they have this big restaurant open that they can't fill. Any given day there are plenty of available ADRs. No one is getting in standby or even trying it seems. Guests are not ordering for everyone due to price but plate sharing even though it is "prix fixe". I think there will be breakfast in the long run there but I think they need to stop what they are doing now and figure this out.

I keep saying it but that beautiful place has been open 2.5 years and sadly still has not found it's groove. Dinner seems to be the only meal working.

Well I don't think the breakfast is that good of a deal to begin with. I'd rather got to Boma or Ohanas for breakfast.

Agree there is no doubt dinner is working. I suppose they could opt for a character breakfast of some sort, which would likely equate to success.

Completely agree, and think plenty of others do as well - hence the availability. We went in May morning of 24 Hour Party. Knew we'd want more meals and had arrived at 6 am. Breakfast at 9:15 am. Ordered three different meals. They were okay.... way overpriced. It's really hard to deliver eggs via cart and them still be piping hot. We would not return again unless we were using it to enter before park opened and then I would order one meal and split it as a snack. Cost of getting in early.

From what I have read the cost in comparison to the selection is not worth it. Never had breakfast at either Boma or Ohana.

Boma in my opinion is one of the best if not the best breakfast buffets in WDW. Ohana is a character breakfast served family style that was also very good.
