Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I am reading conflicting reports. Some say that you can only get lunch at BOG with a FastPass. Others say they have heard that you can eat there without a FP after about 2pm. Has anyone eaten at BOG lately without a FP? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 IIRC. Someone posted a few weeks ago that they were testing doing a FP+ only lunch at BOG. I'll see if I can find it. I'll be right back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I was there on the 9th. There was no standby line, and the CM's were saying FP+ only. They said you could come back at 2:30 and there MIGHT be some openings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 No spreadsheet for WWW. I just relax and go with the flow. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 If the Wild Womenz want to BoG, then they better plan on FP+ for lunch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 We were there three weeks ago, and it was FP+ only. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 When we arrived for our lunch at 12 something, it was FP only. When we departed, the standby line was open. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 When we arrived for our lunch at 12 something, it was FP only. When we departed, the standby line was open. Sounds like maybe they open up the standby line when the FPs thin out? I'll keep an eye out the next few weeks. OMG IT'S ALMOST TIME TO LEAVE!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'll confirm what others have said- in the past month, on two separate days, we have attempted to get in the standby line for lunch at BOG. Both times, we were turned away by a wall of CM's who told us if we didn't have a FP+ reservation we could get lost. Not very magical. The first time we arrived at a few minutes before opening- maybe at 10:25 am. There were guests in the standby line, but they had cut that line and weren't letting any other guests in it. There were no paper FP's offered to return later. There was a sign posted (at 10:25 am mind you) saying the restaurant had reached capacity. The second time, we arrived just past 10:30, and even checked back later around noon- same deal- no standby line. There was no information provided by the unhelpful CM's on duty that the standby line would reopen, but they did tell us that we were welcome to keep checking back. Gee thanks. That sounds magical. Here's a photo of the sign they had posted next to the CM's blocking access to the standby line: The frustrating thing is that the park map says nothing about this- it shows the restaurant is open for lunch from 10:30 am until 2:30 pm. Nothing about it being FP+ only. I doubt this is a permanent thing, and I expect it will stop, just as it began, with no announcement and no concern for the guest experience Idiots.

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Idiots. All of this negative talk is starting to wear thin. I work hard all day, every day to maintain a positive air on this board. I never say a negative word about Disney for fear of making someone out there worry needlessly about their upcoming vacation. "Keep it positive" is my motto. But you keep throwing around negativity like a little Negative Nancy. I wish you'd stop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's been around long before FF. It's just that you've led a sheltered life and haven't heard it before.I don't encourage you to do it, but you can find it being used on some internet tech forums going back at least 10 years. This link is from 2002 http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=744182 We can blame Dave for using it first on FF.Net. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well of course the phrase "sucks monkey butt" has been around for a long time....way longer than your link indicates. But has anyone ever entered the initials "SMB" into the vernacular before like I have? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
