I'm booking ADR's soon and hoping to get a spot for two at GF cafe right at 7am when they open. I've never eaten there, so any guess how much time we would need or how long it takes to eat Bfast there? I know some places are notoriously slow, so just curious.

We have to check in at 7:45 for spa treatments (at the GF) so wondering if we will make it!

Thank you!
 
Bumping because I have the same question! We have a 9:55 flight and a 7am reservation. I couldn't find many TS breakfast options that early.
We will not be using ME as we are renting a car. Wondering if we have enough time?
 
I've only eaten dinner there, so I can't say for sure how fast breakfast is, but since GF Cafe is not a super busy restaurant, I would think if you are there a couple minutes early for your ressie, you should be able to eat a quick breakfast and be at the spa in 45 minutes.

I would say when we ate dinner there last year, we probably weren't there more than an hour and there were 4 of us and we had desert.
 

45 minutes might be enough time, but it might be cutting it close. The GFC is a place we like to linger and take our time. It is so beautiful and relaxing for breakfast.
 
Another thing that I have noticed is if you have reservations for a place right when they open, sometimes it takes them a bit of time to ramp up and get going. I have had a reservations for exact opening time and still was not called to be seated for 5-7 minutes. Also sometimes at the restaurants the food comes out really fast (occasionally too fast) so you can make up time, or the kitchen can be a bit slow to get going. I think the scenario you have here is cutting it a bit close. You get seated at 7:05 and then wait to order and then wait for the food and then wait for the bill , pay and get out and walk over to the spa.
 
I've eaten breakfast many times at the GF Cafe and it doesn't take too long. The service isn't slow during breakfast.
But advice would be to make an ADR for breakfast after your spa treatment. That way you won't feel rushed and can enjoy your breakfast. :)
