Strategy for Oga's ADR?

We are planning a very last-minute trip (8/18-8/23) before school starts and DD27 and I thought it'd be fun to try to get into Oga's. ADRs pop up occasionally via TP reservation finder, but I've not been able to snag one; by the time I "get" to it, it's gone. Anyone have any tips to maximize getting this? Are there better times to search for than others? Should I do 2 requests on TP for different time periods? Any chance of a walk-up on a Sunday (8/22)?

I know this is a last minute trip and this is not a "make or break," just sounds like a fun thing to do. I am not "up" on Star Wars (only saw the first 2 movies that were released) but I do know about Oga's so thought going in for a drink would be fun!
 
Do you have a first born child or soul you can sell? 😁
Seriously, I've had very good luck the day before or day of with finding reservations and I'm usually looking for anywhere from 4-8 people. You may be able to get on a walk up list, but that's really hit or miss. Good Luck!

Thanks! Actually I'm taking the first born with me, so if I sold HER, there'd be no need for the Oga's ADR!
 
I know short time is very different, but I am 60 days out and was shocked I could make a reservation at Oga’s for almost anytime I wanted for a party of 7. It was actually the easiest to get for me.
 

I saw a lot popping up last week the day before, so def don’t give up looking.
 
Hi! I would recommend checking out a reservation finder. I used ***********.com to find an earlier Oga's reservation on 8/20 (had one originally for 6:45) and it really came through- snagged a 12 pm! It was also free to use. I hope this helps!
 
Oga’s had zero availability during my booking window for July. I managed to get 2 reservations for the times I wanted through ************. I wasn’t super fast after getting the alerts, but the openings were still there. I did find that sometimes, I had to try different things in the app (clicking on the time instead of “lunch” or “dinner”) for them to show up, though.

Good luck! Oga’s was a highlight of Galaxy’s Edge for me. Hope you and your daughter get to go!
 
GOT IT!!! :jumping1:
I've been using TP reservation finder, one set for dinner and one set for lunch. I got a 6:55pm opening through the dinner search (not ideal with a 7:45ADR at DisneySprings) and a 10:30am opening through the lunch search (with b'fast at Ale&Compass at 9:25am- again not good). Neither was perfect but I grabbed them. This morning (4am EDT), "nature called" so on my way back to bed I decided to check- on MDE, not through TP, and VOILA!!! There was an Oga's opening, on my day, at 2:55pm- PERFECT!! I snagged that puppy and canceled the other two (hopefully making two other families happy too)!

Since I was having luck with Oga's, I decided to check my A&C ADR as we'd like something a little earlier (haven't been having any luck with this), and guess what? There it was, 9am, just what I wanted!! Changed that one, too. I feel like I'm batting a thousand today; probably should go buy a lottery ticket!!

(Still waiting to hear about Boma reopening... Fingers crossed, that's the one I am REALLY hoping for!!)

I was able to make an Oga's ADR for our trip in October. Though it's at 9:30 am. What the heck, it's vacation! Keep trying. People change plans all the time. You may be able to snag one.
