Tables at BOG?

[BradyBrenMom]

Still having no luck getting October reservations at BOG and I've been trying daily since early April. I'm thinking about breaking up my group into smaller sizes and looking for multiple, smaller reservations. I've never been to BOG--do most of the tables fit 2, 4, 6, or something else? I'll divide the group of 7 up however I need to so we can get a reservation! Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Most of the tables at BOG are 4 tops, so 4 and 3 would be the best way to split up. Is this for lunch or dinner? At lunch you can all sit together even with split ressies. A little trick with lunch, if you can get a table for 4 or 6, is to book a couple separate ressies for one near the same time in order to get in any extra people.

I would agree most are four. I would keep trying, especially around the 45 day mark when trips needs to be paid off. Perhaps something will open up. Unfortunately there is limited hours with the Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party scheduled many nights in October.

We're trying for lunch or dinner, anytime. We're not picky! Thanks for the booking advice--hopefully, I will have more luck that way. I have subscribed to the cancelled ADR thread here too, but nothing has popped up yet for the dates we're looking for.

I'm also trying for October; they're coming up every so often, just keep checking. 2 days ago I got a lunch ressie after getting a Scout alert that it was available. Today there was another one at 5:00 but I wasn't quick enough to get it (we'd prefer dinner if possible.) I agree that splitting up your group will help!

I got a table for five today for dinner. I hit my 180 day mark. I had a table and accidentally forwarded into the restaurant page. Of course by the time I went back the table was gone. After about one hour I snagged a table for five for dinner. I only needed to flip two touring days. Keep trying.

Thank you for the good advice...I have a party of 6 I am trying to reserve.

Great advice, we are planning a party of 9...so I will try splitting..We don't care if it's lunch or dinner...Would love breakfast to open up during our time too!!

Hopefully they'll extend the BOG breakfast past Oct 3rd. That will open up a bunch more ressies, too!

I had to do two ADR's for 1 person eac, to get my husband and I in for lunch in December. I would search for 2 people and nothing would come up! Then I did one person and got an 11:20 and booked that, then I searched for one person again and got 11:25.

Makes no sense to me, but as long as we get to eat it doesn't really matter I guess.

Has anyone not added an infant to reservations and the restaurant be okay with it?

I'm breaking up all adr for our party of 7. And some I have resv for 6.

Waiting for bog!!! November seems booked solid

breakfast, lunch, or dinner? For most other restaurants, I'd warn that they could turn away the one extra person due to fire code capacity restrictions. But Be Our Guest does not operate at capacity during dinner, so there's little risk with adding the one extra infant.

In my experience, this has worked: If you are able to find an available reservation without the infant, go ahead and book it. Then call Disney and ask to add the infant.

Once you get closer to the 60 day mark and the 45 day mark, more reservations will become available. I am almost at the 45 day mark for a reservation in September and there have been several posts for BOG in the past few days.

Try not to laugh when I say this, so....my getting a dinner reservation the day we check in, with the concierge, for 2 (that is, if my sister decides to come after all) is never...and I mean NEVER going to happen? What cloud am I living in??? LOL I guess I'd better get busy ironing this all out!

There are round tables at BOG too that seat 6 people. I'm not sure how many of those bigger tables they had though; it didn't seem like too many but I didn't count.

I'd be really careful with omitting an infant from your ADR and hoping for the best - I'd be worried about taking that risk in case something changes with capacity between now and your vacation.

It could depend on the time of year. If you check for exactly 180 days out now, you'll usually see some reservations available at exactly 6 a.m. So, you should have chance, but maybe not the best times.
