Big River Brewing Company ????

[lisareneeo]

Was thinking about trying Big River Brewing Company for lunch one day.
Did not want to make a reservation because we wanted to be very flexible and just show up on our way to Disney Studios. I would think we would show up around noon. How difficult is it to just walk up and get a table for four? (Sunday afternoon in November)

I go to Big River for lunch at least once on every trip to WDW. I never make an ADR and rarely (if ever) have to wait for a table. Big River is a great place to take a mid-day break. Food is decent, beers are good and sitting outside to take in the Boardwalk area can't be beat.

I agree with the above poster. I've had lunch at Big River several times and have never made a reservation there, never had to wait. Most of our visits have been in late October or early November when crowds are fairly manageable. I see that you are also going in November. It may be a bit busier there on a Sunday afternoon, but unless it's Thanksgiving weekend or something, you should be fine.

I have done the same thing. Never made and ADR there and have gone for lunch. It's pretty good there. About what you would expect for a brewery/pub. Nothing fancy but great beers and pretty good food.

I don't even know if they take ADR's there now that I think about it??

They don't take ADR's- it's walk up only. Never waited long at all on a table.

We like it, hope you do as well!!

I'm quite interested in trying out the beers here- is it ok just to go for a beer rather than a full meal?

You can make reservations there, but you have to call the restaurant directly to do it. They're not in Disney's dining reservations system.

Absolutely. There's a bar area too.

For lunch you should be ok, but we went one time for dinner on a Friday night and it was over an hour wait. Thankfully, I had called the restaurant for a reservation.

We really enjoyed Big River Grille! Loved the beer sampler!

We love the Kobe burgers. We've had issues with service but it's not a Disney owned restaurant. We've only had to wait for a table outdoors but we've only done lunch. Corey recommends the meatloaf but I always go for the burger. Enjoy

We have a Big River passport rewards card. With this you are seated ahead of everyone else. I don't think I paid for the card but it may have been free because of my AP. But it doesn't hurt to check it out! Once I took a survey and received a free app!

They have tables indoors and outdoors. We went for lunch in April during the week and had a 5 minute wait. I liked ESPN better, but Big River Grille was good.

Big River walk up lunch in November should be no problem. Nice restaurant, especially when you can dine outside, look at the water and the people go by.
