Reservations for Boma Breakast Buffet??

[taben]

We are thinking about giving the Boma Breakfast Buffet a try...it opens at 7:30 a.m., do we need to make reservations? OR can we just show up a little after 7:00?

It looks like it is required, because if you dont go they charge for no show.

We were there a couple weeks ago on a Sunday am around 9:30. We stopped on our way home. It was not busy at all. People were walking up and not waiting long. We had adr's but I don't know if everyone did. I did try to change my time a couple days before we left and they had a lot available. We did not give them a credit card so I don't think they charge if you are a no show. If it is important to get in and out quickly, I would make an adr. It was definately the best breakfast buffet we have had at WDW.

Are you sure? I have eaten breakfast and dinner at Boma multiples times and never had to put down a credit card. For the sake of research just now I tried to make a reservation for a random date and July and wasn't asked for a credit card, either. Just wondering if I'm missing something. It wouldn't be the first time I am confused!

I can't imagine needing a reservation at 7 a.m., except during the busiest season. The last two times I had breakfast at Boma, I am pretty sure we just walked in with a minimal wait. This was a few years ago.

I've never heard of Boma doing a credit card guarantee. I think this information might be incorrect.

If you show up that early for breakfast you probably won't need reservations.

I did not have too put down any info too Guarantee the reservation...It was booked just like a normal ADR....

If you definitely want to eat at Boma for breakfast, then I would make an adr because there is always the risk of being turned away without one.

I made online reservations and wasn't asked for any credit card information. This was about 2 weeks ago.

I didn't think they opened up before 730AM. I would make an ADR just in case.

Depending on the time of year they may be 90% empty at 7:30 am or they may be 90% full. Always safest to make the ADR just in case no matter which WDW restaurant you want or what time of day.
