Reservation for BOG before park opens

[Guest]

Hi , I was trying to get a lunch reservation for BOG without success so have booked breakfast instead. However our reservation is at 8.45 and park opens at 9 that day , how does that work ? Thanks

You go to a Cast Member at the entrance where people will be queing and show them your reservation. They will let you in.

We found the decor lovely but the breakfast itself was a waste of money and were really dissappointed. Trip Advisor reviews illustrate the same..

Breakfast is expensive but we really enjoyed it. I have read that they do not allocate specific times for breakfast as such being a quick service. So, even though your reservation says it is for 8:45 they would allow you in as soon as it opens (8ish I think). It worked for us last year anyway. This allowed us to finish up breakfast and then join the 7Dwarves queue early. Once the park opened we were straight on. A fantastic perk and worth the overpriced breakfast!

as long asyou have a reservation, theyll let you in. just an idea but if you show up a little early, you might be able to sneak a couple of family pictures in front of the castle with no crowds

there will be a line for breakfast, at the left of the entrance bank.

but they will let guests enter the park around 8:40/8:45 and hold them around the hub until opening time
so make sure you're at MK gates no later than 8:15/8:30 to enter the park earlier and have time to go to BOG which is at the other end of the park.

As per the poster above, BOG breakfast is rather poor
it's only good value if you're on the dining plan. It's very expensive for a breakfast (almost as expensive as the character buffet at Crystal Palace TS) so using a QS credit at BOG gives a high value to that credit. But if paying OOP it's a waste of money.

If you can get an earlier booking, or even arrive early and be lucky enough to get in early then you may be out in time to join the queue for 7DMT and ride it without a long wait. You can actually get most Fantasyland rides done without FP if you do that.

Contrary to the above posts, Nov 2016 they wouldn’t let us into the venue until the exact allocated time on our reservation, so we had to queue outside near the entrance hut

Then we had another queue while we entered and ordered.

This coupled with the rubbish food really put us off going back for Breakfast

Oh no, that does sound rough! Wonder if they changed this last year? Hope the link below works:

Just need to remortgage the house now to afford my breakfast croissant!

Yeah, personally, we found the breakfast light on quality and quantity and the service was pretty poor. Aside from the entrance experience, drink machines didnt work and it was like a school hall at lunchtime.

Ive heard amazing things about the evening table service though but can never get a booking

We actually enjoyed the breakfast. We knew that it was not going to be fine dining, and that it would be noisy and busy, but for a QS credit we were more than happy.
We pre ordered at home, so one less hassle when we arrived and could go straight to a table. The food was nice - DH had the Feast a la Gaston, and I had the Open Faced sandwich which together with the pastries and fruit was more than enough, drinks were plentiful - yes, you go for them yourself, and we're going again this year to use another QS
