I have a reservation for Spice Road Table at 7:45 and one for 9:10 at Beaches and Cream. Is there enough time to do both?
 
I have never eaten as Spice Road Table, so I don't know how long their service usually takes. But, you should give yourself about 15 minutes to get from Spice Road Table to Beaches and Cream-assuming you will be walking directly there and have a decent walking pace. That being said, that leaves you one hour and ten minutes for dinner. If it was me, I would not be able to relax and would feel a rushed. Also, Spice Road Table is a perfect place to watch Illuminations, which if they begin at 9:00 pm on the night you are there would be a perfect time for you to sit and watch.
 
It woudl not be enough time for my family. I refuse to rush through one meal to get to another, even if that is simply to have dessert. For my family, the same goes for booking FP and making ADR's. I am not stressing at one because we have the other. If you want B&C just for ice cream, why not look at the other spots open for dessert? Enjoy dinner at Spice Road table, and grab a nice dessert to enjoy while watching Illuminations.
 
I absolutely wouldn't do it even if I could make both.
Illuminations starts at 9 and is about 15 minutes long. It is the best evening show, in our opinion. After Illuminations, everyone is trying to leave and walking is slow.
Can you make a B & C at 9:30 or later?
 

Yes, possibly, but you would be rushing and, as others have said, you would miss Illuminations if that is of interest to you. I find Spice Road Table's service to be very timely. For us, it would take about an hour to eat there, so, yes, if you hightail it out of there and walk to B&C you'll make it. Are you ordering the kitchen sink or a particular sundae? Honestly, if you are just looking for good ice cream, I would take your time at Spice Road and then either get ice cream in France or at Ample Hills when you are ready for dessert. Ample Hills sundaes are far better than B&C IMHO.
 
Thank you for the responses. I'm going to try movie the b&c ressie to another night.
 
Sorry to hijack this thread but how is the view at spice road....I know rose and crown is very limited but is there a decent enough view a spice road?
 
Doable. You'll probably be late for beaches, but still within the grace period.

There is no stated Grace Period. You may find a CM who will give you a 15 minute leeway, and you may be turned away if you are late.

The view at Spice Road Table is OK - there is an island that blocks the view of the Globe and depending on your seat the roof will cover the high fireworks so you can't see them.
The absolute best view of Illuminations is outside around the lagoon

Thank you...we usually stand around the lagoon. Since we are taking a newbie I thought a 2nd viewing of illuminations would be nice while we are having dinner. And besides I have wanted to go to spice road since they opened.
