Hi Tracy! Welcome to planDisney.
Oh Boy! Sounds like you will have a busy time at
Walt Disney World Resort this coming weekend. Advance Dining Reservations open 60 days in advance. Large groups are notoriously hard to reserve at one table. And popular restaurants can fill up in a matter of minutes. My recommendation is to search for reservations by splitting your party up into smaller groups.
I did a quick search for a party of six at your desired time on Friday, February 3, 2023. While I did see a reservation for
Rainforest Café® at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park at 4:30 PM, I did not see anything available at the
Disney Springs location until 9:30 PM. You can of course keep checking the
My Disney Experience Mobile App as people's plans change often, but here are a few alternatives.
Planet Hollywood at
Disney Springs had reservations open. Your students may really enjoy the menu and atmosphere. Another fun location with availability was
Splitsville Dining Room. This location features music, food, and entertainment.
Splitsville Luxury Lanes™ is adjacent and offers retro bowling fun for all ages. If interested in reserving bowling lanes you can call (407) 938-7467.
And finally, Disney Springs is home to
countless counter-service restaurants and food trucks that do not require reservations. Your group might enjoy
Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza,
D-Luxe Burger, or
The Polite Pig. But check the link provided for numerous options.
Keeping it Magical,
Cindy
