If we show up to eat at Three Broomsticks at 1045 for lunch on a CL 9 day (13 April) how long do you anticipate we’d wait to be seated? Is there still construction in the outdoor seating section? How many tables are out there that are available?
Similar question for Leaky Cauldron (CL 9 on 12 April)…
Following. When I was there a few years ago we basically didn’t wait at all at that time, but oh, how times have changed.
Also following because we normally like to eat at LC for an early lunch on at least one of our days.
You might be trailing the breakfast crowd, I usually show up around 11:15-11:30 with mobile order and have no wait.
Or, I can rephrase (keeping my question bubbling to the top of the latest)…
What is the latest time (threshold) I can show up for an early lunch and still be seated in a short amount of time?
From the grumblings I’ve read. Never. My latest experience is old (August 2020). But they still have the same social distancing requirements as then. Although they seem to have streamlined things more by adding things like being able to add your table# to your Mobile Order. By going early lunch you should be able to shorten your wait from Everyone Is Hangry to 20-30 minutes.
I went on a slower day during the week and we mobile ordered for around 11:20am and were immediately seated. I say aim for 11:15am or so.
I’ll add that I was very impressed with the meal process at TB. It seems after 8 months they have it mastered and are very efficient. Submitting your order well before you arrive is best for a shorter stay and helpful to the kitchen. Drinks came out right away and food also came out very quickly. A TM even came up to us and offered to take a family photo with my phone.
Just to clarify: do you actually submit your order before you get to your table?
Yes place order and pay on the app. We probably did 45 minutes prior.
Thank you
