Thread: Blue Bayou Question

    Blue Bayou Question

    I will be going to Disneyland at the beginning of October for 3 days. It will be my boyfriend's first time going since he was a child and I want to make it special for him. Does anyone know if Blue Bayou takes reservations for specific tables? i.e. could we request to sit next to the water along the railing and watch the boats of Pirates go by?

    Blue Bayou Question

    They don't take reservations for that but you can show up early and request a waterside table. I plan to do this on Friday . I'm just wondering how early we should be.

    You can always request it. Best bet is to get an early reservation, arrive early, and be willing to wait for a waterside table.

    This. I always arrive about 15 minutes early, make the request, and let them know I am willing to wait.

    Thanks for the advice everyone! I will be at one of the Halloween parties so I'm hoping to eat there then. I noticed you cant make reservations during the Halloween party so I think I'll wing it.

    I would not waste party time at a sit down meal. Also I'd look into whether or not they'll even be open for the party.

    Good idea, I just assumed they would be open. But you know what they say about assuming... lol! I will call this afternoon and get some information.

    Since your party ticket allows you into the park x# (3?, 5?) of hours ahead of the start of the party, perhaps a late lunch time?

    So I ended up just making a lunch reservation for Oct. 8th. I decided to play it safe instead of chancing them not being open.

    Let me know how quickly they seat you when you request the waterside table!

    I totally understand wanting a waterside table for a special occasion, but on a recent trip my dad and I were seated in the 3rd rank of tables and it was surprising how pleasant it was. We could barely see the boats going by, and it made the ambiance so much better IMHO. It felt like you were really dining on the bayou. Maybe there ARE no bad tables here, just different experiences?

    Maybe we are just lucky, but we have never waited longer than 15 min. for a waterside table.

    Say the secret word.
