Say goodbye to the great Rose and Crown viewing area. I knew this would happen eventually but this one stings.

I have a 7:30 ADR already on 4/28. Does that mean I’m now SOL on requesting a lagoon seat?

If this is longer than 2 hours... :facepalm:

Now just wait a minute there. Rose and Crown at Illuminations time is one of the hardest reservations to get. I have one for March. I know there are no free table for this restaurant at this time available starting 10 days from now. Are they going to cancel existing reservations? Force me to change to the upcharge meal which is limiting my choices from the menu and forcing me to pay for alcohol I don't want and won't drink? Certainly they aren't just going to use that tiny little area below the patio which fits 20 people standing- it clearly states the patio.
Getting tired of things that use to be free being taken away from me for someone willing to pay more for it

↩ replying to HauntedPirateYou'll be lucky to get 2 beers in during that time... it will be packed and by the time you get service the show will be over

That is an absolute sickener, so long to our viewing place for the last 23 years - assuming by patio they mean the beer garden adjacent to the pub.

And don’t think this will end with Illuminations. It will continue with Epcot Forever and the new permanent show.

↩ replying to stuartI'm not sure how much of the space they will take, we'll have to see. It may depend on demand.

↩ replying to stuartI guess I shouldn't jump to conclusions yet, but I think the beer garden and any available outdoor space will be used for this event. R&C has always been our favorite place to not only catch the fireworks but eat and drink in general. I hope the service levels don't drop off because of the extra support needed for this "event".

↩ replying to AJH219I don't know, I've had a good drink or two from R&C... ;) Maybe it was the bartender (this particular one is my wife's favorite, don't want to mention names).

↩ replying to AJH219The drinks are a good bit stronger (especially if you're friends with the bar staff) than what you would get in a normal British pub.

↩ replying to stuartIs this the patio--or is it the tables on the lagoon side of the restaurant?
