Hi Jennifer,
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us another question!
When
Be Our Guest Restaurant first opened at Magic Kingdom Park, I too remember waiting in long lines at lunch in order to be able to dine there. As you know, there this restaurant now takes reservations, even though it’s a counter-service location at lunch. Because of this, much like every other Walt Disney World Resort table-service restaurant, it’s very difficult to get a table without a
dining reservation.
Don’t give up, though! I’ve found that reservations often free up 24-48 hours beforehand, so I would definitely recommend checking frequently to see whether a coveted lunch reservation at Be Our Guest Restaurant opens up for your family’s upcoming vacation. I’ve had great luck with “last-minute” reservations on several of my recent trips, and I hope you will too!
Please don’t hesitate to come back and see us if you have any other questions.
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
