    We missed the mark for making a Thanksgiving afternoon dining reservation at Whispering Canyon Cafe for the 2024 holiday meal. Will a party of 3 be allowed to dine as a walk up?

    Yeehaw Chelsea! 

    It sounds like you’re saddlin’ up for some fun at Whispering Canyon Cafe at Disney's Wilderness Lodge, where the shenanigans never stop and neither does the hearty grub! If you're lookin' for a good ol' rowdy time, this place is the Wild West of dining, with servers who’ve got a knack for crackin’ jokes, wranglin’ up some laughs, and—if you ask for ketchup—well, let’s just say you might want to get your camera ready!

    Now, about that Thanksgiving feast! Even though you missed out on wranglin’ a reservation, don't hang up your spurs just yet. While walk-up reservations aren't guaranteed, you can mosey on over to the My Disney Experience app and join the walk-up list if there's availability! Think of it like ridin' into town and hoping there's an empty stool at the saloon—ya never know until you check, but it sure is worth a shot!

    With people’s plans changin’ faster than a tumbleweed in a windstorm, there’s still a chance a table could open up—sometimes even same-day! So keep that app close and check often, especially as the holiday approaches. You might just get lucky and find a seat at the table!

    Once you're in, the real fun begins—diggin' into a holiday feast like no other! Whispering Canyon serves up all the fixin’s, from fall-off-the-bone ribs to succulent roasted meats and mouthwatering sides, often with a special Thanksgiving Feast that will fill up even the hungriest of folks. Whether you're here for the turkey or the laughs, you're in for a rip-roarin' good time!

    Wishing you a magical holiday full of laughter, tasty treats, and maybe even a little ketchup mayhem!
