So when the parks close a 6pm for the parties, what is the last ADR time you can make? Is it 6pm or is it earlier?
 

I was worried about that last year too. We snagged at 5:50 at LTT and checked in early to be sure we could be seated. The only issue we had is that our server wasn't pleased that we were seated at her table when the park "closed at 6:00". We overheard her tell a supervisor, "I thought we were closed at 6:00. Why am I having someone seated at my table?" Unfortunately she was then very rude to us the entire time and it wasn't a pleasurable experience. I hope this was an exception but this was our experience on a MVMCP night.

That’s terrible. I hope her tip reflected her attitude.

It did. We left 10%.
Tip would have been zilch if I ever overheard my server say something like that, especially if they also treated me poorly.
I considered leaving her nothing but there were others who brought us food and I didn’t want to leave them out. Plus I didn’t want her to think we forgot. I thought 10% sent a message.
 
at end of meal make sure everyone uses the bathroom before you leave as most likely you will be walked out no stops no pictures no bathroom even young kids
They are serious about this. We were sitting in Auntie Gravity’s - in the part that used to be a gift store, right at 6pm waiting for the area to clear a bit. A family had just come from the smoothie side with two very large sundaes and a few drinks and tried to sit to eat. Two CMs blocked them and told them that since they didn’t have the MNSSHP wristband, they would have to take their stuff to go and head to the front because the park was closed. They were super-shocked, as was I to be honest. I doubt they would have purchased that stuff if they knew they were going to have to watch it melt as they headed out.
 
I ate at Skipper Canteen fairly close to MVMCP starting time last year. I had a wrist band but saw that they asked each party and made a note on their reservation before they were seated if they had no ticket. At the end of the meal they were escorted out.

Personally, I would not have found it a very relaxing experience but everyone’s different.
 
We had a fine experience at Tony's with the very late reservation on a party night. No one gave us a hard time at all on the way in or it, and our service was excellent. (Food was much better than expected, too!)

Great Tip :thumbsup2. Thanks.

That is just awful! I wonder if it's different now because there are several reservations available after 6pm at a couple of the restaurants but I assumed they are reserved for party guests.
 
We had a 5:55 reservation at BOG last year on a MVMCP party night where we didn't have tickets. They were behind in seating and didn't get seated until 6:15. Then our server was slow and the food took forever to come out. We didn't get out of there until almost 8:00!
Nobody ever asked if we had party tickets or wristbands. Nobody escorted us out. It was very strange. But it was nice leisurely walking to the front gate and checking out all the sights and sounds of the party.
