Quickest way to have lunch at BOG?

[PrincessDisneyMomx2]

What is the fastest way to get lunch at BOG? Do you make reservations then pre-order?
How do you pre-order and where do you go at BOG if you pre-order vs. not pre-ordering? TIA

Make your lunch ADR. The earlier your ADR time, the less likely the line would be backed up.

Pre order your lunch. Can't remember if it's 30 days in advance that this becomes available on MDE. Someone else will know.

When you check in at the restaurant you'll be directed to the pre order line. You'll pay for your meal and then find a table, get your drinks and silverware, and wait for your meal to arrive.

What line being backed up are you referring to? The line to check in? We are hoping to get an 8am at Crystal Palace so I am thinking we won't have lunch till about 130-2pmish..

We just had our BOG lunch on Tuesday and it was well worth it! You can pre-order 30 days in advance, it shows up on MDE. I highly recommend pre-ordering. The line for those without pre-order was looped around inside and long. We got sent straight in to the pre order area and there was no line.

You check in at the entrance to the left. Then you're directed to the drawbridge where the line can back up. Once you get to the person in front of the doors, you will be directed to the left inside where pre orders are taken care of. Those without orders will be directed to the right.

HTH!

You do a sort of check-in twice. First check in is at the little hut outside the castle where they confirm your ADR and make sure that your pre-order is showing in the system and they will send you to either the check-in for pre-orders or to the ordering kiosks if you haven't ordered yet.

We don't really dawdle over lunch, but we were probably there about 45 minutes from check in at the outside hut to leaving the building.

Definitely get an ADR, and DEFINITELY pre order. We couldn't because we were splitting checks and the line was extremely long! Without an ADR you may not get in at all, and without a preorder you're looking at at least 15 minutes just to order at the kiosks. I also suggest getting an ADR for a less popular lunch time.
