Space 220 Experience

[julie-o]

Does anyone have tips for walk up reservation? My husband really wants to do this July 28 but I couldn’t get ADR.

Are there dessert options in the lounge? I don’t see them on the menu and might be missing something obvious. Thanks!

YES! And that was the best part. Like the poster above mentioned a top notch Carrot cake, I had the chocolate cheesecake which in my opinion was like something you would get at a fancy restaurant known for their desserts. I'm no stranger to chocolate or cheesecakes, trust me! lol

My understanding is that you can walk up before opening and talk to the CM about openings. I've read of some being able to make ADRs for later in the day that way. You can also stand in line for the bar itself.

However, I'd also recommend checking frequently for openings, especially as you get closer to your desired date. Many people drop their ADRs a day or two beforehand as their plans change!

We loved our dinner at Space 220. The food and the wait staff were excellent.
I would definitely go again!

We decided the other day to book WDW for 9/11-9/18.

I'm essentially having Zero luck getting much of what we were hoping for. I missed the 60 day cutoff by like 5 days or so....I still can't see the 18th yet so maybe in the morning something pops up.

I experienced the same issue and had no problem with walk up the day of, which was this past Monday (7/25). I didn't sign up for the alerts like others have recommended as I heard it doesn't always work. But what definitely didn't work (for me personally) was checking periodically during the 60 days or even 24-48 hours in advance hoping for cancellations. Save your time and just walk up the day of (I did it at 10:30a and had no problem getting a lunch reservation for 1:45p). Unless you have a big group (I only had 3 including myself), you should have no problem.

That's definitely what we're going to try and do. thanks!

I couldn’t get Space 220 with our 60+6 the other day unfortunately but good to know you can still try by walking up. I’ll check every day for an opening but will definitely try in person in September.

I'm getting back into ADR after having not been to Disney World since 2016. Can you help me understand this notation I keep seeing everywhere that is 60+(number)?

I get that 60 days out, and then you can book for your entire trip if you're staying on property. I've managed to get a couple that we wanted, but I don't understand what people are saying when they reference the 60+ stuff.

Thanks!

At 60 days out you can book for your entire trip - but only up to 10 additional days. When people say they booked for 60+1, they mean they booked that ADR for the 1st day after their checkin day 60, 60+2 is the 2nd day after their day 60, etc. The more popular ADRs are usually easier to get if you put them as late as possible in your stay, e.g. if you're there a week, try for day 60+6 for that most difficult ADR.

We've been to Space 220 once and have no plans to go again. (It was OK, something every Disney fan should experience, but not something worth doing again.)

Still, for our upcoming 5-night onsite trip, I checked at about 6:30 AM on the first day and could not find Space 220 at 60+5.

SciFi Dine-in was the other tough one. That was available only at 60+4.

Yeah I fully expect this to be one and done but definitely want to experience it once. I still check for openings but nothing yet.

My nephew and his wife had no problem getting in by showing up 30 minutes before Space 220 opened and waiting outside in line.

Really it depends if this is more important than the time you'd wait for an attraction.

Good to know! Thanks. It’s a priority for us on this trip so we’ll definitely get in line if necessary.

I just today managed to get a great lunch slot for Scifi Drive In at 60+1. At first there was only a dinner option, and then after I had it booked about 2 hours later a lunch slot just appeared. I'm crossing my fingers I can get lucky to find a Space 220 slot...

We went to space 220 last week around 1030 am. There was plenty of availability for lunch and dinner prix fixe. Nothing for the lounge. We could have waited in line to go to the bar but we didn’t feel like waiting. Seems like if you want to do the prix fixe you should be able to get walk up.
