Le Cellier..lunch- Really??

[Bitsmommy]

Just went to book my dining reservations for 180+10. I couldn't get ANY reservation for LeCellier for lunch the entire trip! I understand that this is a hot thing, but every slot taken at the 190 day mark at 6:30 central time??? Are they serving lunch???

Le Cellier is one of the hottest tickets around. And with dinner now being two credits on the dining plan, I think lunch is even more popular.

Another factor with ADRs is your party size. Do you have a large party? That can make it hard as well.

But keep checking back if you really want it. People do cancel from time to time.

We tried lunch at Le Cellier last year and were very pleased. I didn't want to use the two meal credits for dinner, and the midday break was just was my in-laws and young kids needed. I would keep trying. It is worth the hastle.

you never know. I would call, too.

At the 45 day mark when final payment is due is always another good time to check. Simply put, some cancel their trip before penalties set in and that can make some hard to get ressies available. I have caught a few this way.

You may be going at a popular time which adds to the situation.

Keep checking. I've been told that they don't load all of the ADRs into the system in time for the 190 ADR seekers.

I just a couple days ago booked LeCellier for lunch mid-August for the exact time I wanted. This is 4 months out, not 180+ days out. As I said, keep checking.

In my experience, you have to wait until 180 days. At this point, you can start booking them one day at a time (For example, if the Monday of your trip is 180 days out, you'll have to wait until the next day to book your Tuesday reservations). I hope this helps!

If you're staying off-site, it works that way, but if you're staying on-site, then you get the 180+10 bonus. You can start at 180 days from your first day, and then book ten additional days into your reservation- the online booking will ask and check your confirmation number, or Disney Dining will ask for it.

It just may be that they don't have all of the tables open for your time, or that lunch has been booked up since it's still within Free Dining options AND Food and Wine Festival. Even with the $10 guarantee, I doubt Le Cellier is going to go down in ADR popularity.

Good luck and keep trying! When I tried last year, I was able to get it for lunch about two weeks before our trip- checking online every day.
