Beaches & Cream hours?

[deadheadbelle]

What are the hours of operation for Beaches & Cream? We want to try this place on our next trip & are trying to decide where it will fill into our schedule.

Thanks!

Is the menu the same for lunch and dinner? Both in price and selection.

We too would like to go there in the evening, after MGM closes, but do they take PS?

Thanks

Beaches and Cream-one of my favorites! I think they're open from about 11:30-10:30 or so. Definitely after Illuminations-they said that's their busiest time, they think people run to B&C trying to beat each other. I'm afraid they don't take PS, but I asked the CM there when times were that were "less crowded" (it seems there aren't any UN-crowded times). She recommended an early lunch or late afternoon. And they have the same menu all day. I've gone around noon and twice in the late afternoon and gotten a seat. Early afternoon (2:30) was a 40 minute wait.

We love B&C as well and usually eat there a couple of times on each trip. They open sometime around 11:00 am and are open late (we've been there as late as 10:00 pm and they were still seating people). They do NOT take PS's. We have never had more than a 15 minute wait when we get there before 5:00. From there the wait can grow in a hurry and by 7:00 or 8:00 the wait can be as much as an hour. To avoid a wait I'd recommend lunch or an early dinner. If you wait until after the Studios or Epcot close there most likely will be a wait of anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes. They will tell you how long and give you a beeper, but the beeper doesn't have much range. The menu is the same for lunch and dinner. They do have a limited take-out menu.
