BOG for breakfast or lunch?

Both options are readily available for ADRs. Wondering if there is an advantage to one over the other? Thoughts? TIA!

If you get a breakfast ADR at a time that is way prior to park opening, you may have opportunity to ride 7DMT or get in line for A&E before the rope drop crowds get to you.

For lunch, I think it's one of the better counter service lunches in MK and a great value for QSDP if you are on it. Lunch will be less expensive than breakfast.

The lunch is very good, have been several times and have ressies for Feb. Have not been for breakfast, but their menu definitely does not appeal to us. It is very different (to say the least) and also very expensive IMO. If there is an advantage to breakfast, it would be, like the pp said, to maybe get into the park earlier.

the ressie that's available is 8:30 which is a half hour before park open. is that long enough? We could enter at 8, I guess. That seems like a big benefit if we're not able to get a A&E FP+ reservation for this trip (which seems like could be hard to come by even if I log on at midnight!) which is an absolute must do as I have a frozen-obsessed toddler.

I don't know if we can get up and over there that early, though. Since...i have a toddler. :/

Well you have to decide if you can get there first.

Even if you ordered your food in advance you would cut it close with an 8:30 am. Now many have reported that they have just let everyone in whenever they arrive during the pre-park hours so if you got to the park gate say by 8, they let you right in park, you get to BOG by 8:10 you may be sent on in to eat. That would put you in a good place for A&E. But every day is a gamble.

We have often picked up A&E late even day of. Key is if you don't get, don't give up. You could hold breakfast up until day before and just keep trying for a FP+. Even getting them say 2 and a 1 with overlapping times will work. If you get FP+ then cancel the breakfast.

Hadn't thought of it this way at all. that makes perfect sense....hold the ADR for breakfast and lunch until we know if we get the A&E FP+. That will work! Thanks!!!
