We are a family of five, so far I got two tables of two, hoping to keep trying to get us all in there. Anyway we have 915 reservations and 920 and fireworks are at 10 that night in June, if we are done and finished, we are just doing drinks and snacks, we have never been to this restaurant before, will be be able to see fireworks right outside the Beast's castle? I have heard you can but not sure. I dont like watching from crowded areas?
 
Yes you can, but there will be a separation between the high fireworks and the smaller ones shot off behind Cinderella castle. You might have to do a ping pong match with your head to see both. And you may be better off if you move over closer to Gaston's and look toward the mountain with the Beast's castle on it instead of being right outside the doors of BOG.

You would actually have to finish up, pay and then leave the restaurant to see anything though. They won't let you step outside and then come back in, to my knowledge.
 
As previous poster said, you will indeed be able to watch the fireworks in New Fantasyland. It happens to be one of our favorite spot to watch. Not the best spot for pictures (you don't have the castle) and you don't get to see all the lights effects, but still a great way to enjoy the show with far less people around you!

With that being said, you really have to be out of the restaurant at exactly 10PM to make sure you see the show. With your reservation being at 9:15, I feel like you'll rush too much...
 
We just did this and it was only dh and I in Dec.

We pretty much knew what we wanted to eat since we have been there before.

If you try to check in earlier than your adr time they will tell you to come back no sooner than 15 or 20 mins. before your adr.

As another pp said, I do feel you will be too rushed. Our whole meal was about an hour from start to finish. Sometimes the server has many tables etc.

Also if you have never been there before you might want to check out the rooms, have a picture with the Beast etc.

We managed to get a seat by a garbage can. Fine for us in back too where the pp mentioned. We have seen the fireworks many times before so the best view was not important to us. Yes you will have to turn 2 ways to see them.

Keep watching the cancel thread and maybe you will get luck and snag a better time.
 

We love watching them from the new Fantasyland, they feel like they are all around you.
 
Concur with keep watching for cancelations. I scored a reservation that way.
 
Standing on the bridge between BOG and Gastons Tavern is a great place to view the fireworks. You don't even need to turn around and view the little ones near the castle. The bigger ones seem right overhead and are fabulous! We viewed the fireworks there in December. We'd seen fireworks from the front of the castle before and wanted to experience them behind it. We've decided we don't need to see the show from the front anymore.

I totally agree. It feels like the fireworks are all around you. And the big ones are still above a castle, it's just the Beasts castle. No crowds pressing in on us was probably the best thing. And the moment Wishes was done, we went onto a ride in Fantasyland with no line. We plan on watching from outside BOG from now on.
