What is the earliest you can check into ADR??

A lot depends on the restaurant. We've checked into ADRs as early as 35-45 min early, but when we went to CRT back in August we weren't permitted to check in until 10 min before. It seemed odd to us since we checked in about 20 min early to our CRT adr in late 2010...I guess a policy change. :confused3
 
True story, the only place i was told i had to wait until 10 minutes before was CRT, never had a problem anywhere else
 
We were told 15 minutes at Tusker House, and that was firm! There was a torrential downpour when we came off EE, so we headed over to check in for our lunch ressie a bit early. Due to the rain, the check in area was a madhouse as everyone was taking cover under the Dawa bar area, and there were lots of folks trying to get in as a walkup. I knew the line would take a while, so I went ahead and got in line, and when I got to the front, I was THREE MINUTES in advance of the 15 minutes. They told me I could stand off to the side until time was up, but by this time DS, who is an Aspie and can't take crowds, had it, and did NOT want to eat there anymore, so we cancelled and headed for Pizzafari. I was disappointed, but at least we made one of the walkups happy! I've tried twice, but still haven't gotten to eat there. :sad1:
 

As PP have stated, it depends. I could only check in 15 minutes early at Garden Grill, Crystal Palace, Ohana, LeCellier and CRT.

I was able to check in 30 minutes early at Boma.

All other times I was only checking in 15 minutes early so it didn't matter.

Hope that helps.
