When does BB open for dinner?

[disneyerin]

When we were at DL in 2018 BB had certain hours for lunch and certain hours for dinner. Are they still doing that or do they just serve lunch and dinner with no breaks inbetween?

If there is a break does anyone know when the dinner hours start?

Awesome. Ok, I'm going to share my strategy with you about getting a table right next to the water if the time of your dinner doesn't matter. Just no one make a dinner reservation on October 17th...
Find out when the dinner time starts. Then make a reservation for an hour after that. Then get there 15 min early and say you will wait for a table on the water.
Since all those table will be seated at 4pm, they will be opening up 45-60 minutes later.
We have never had to wait for more than 10 minutes.

So, for BB you would get a reservation for 5pm and show up around 4:45pm?

 

[joseph821]

Yes For a regular table.
30 minutes for a waterside table make the request.

That's what we've always done. All the water tables will be seated at 4pm because everyone will want to sit there. I figure most people spend 45min to an hour for dinner. So, all the water tables most likely would be emptying out starting at 4:45.
Well actually I'd follow joseph821's advise and get there at 4:30. Better safe than sorry!

Do you really think those people that having dinner reservations for 4:00 will be getting waterside tables if lunch runs right into dinner? I have lunch reservations for 3:30 so if I possibly get a waterside table then I would be crossing over into the early dinner reservations.
