I'm making my ADRs in two weeks- I'm going at the very end of free dining. I really want Le Cellier for dinner (I've never eaten here), but I'm going into it with a good attitude- I figure if I don't get it I don't know what I'm missing and have other places I want to go. So...has anyone going during free dining gotten ressies for Le Cellier at dinner? I keep seeing where people are getting it for lunch instead. My question is- I realize the people who are booking before you are getting it with their 10+ days but then wouldn't you be able to get it at the end of your stay. I mean someone out there has to get it. Is it just luck?!! Happy ADR making! :mickey:

I was able to get it on the day we wanted and they offered me a 6pm but I needed a later time so I got one for 7. Good luck and keep up the positive attitude!

We could only get lunch for our trip - no dinner any night during our stay. Oh well lunch there is pretty good, too.
Good luck to you.

thanks for all the responses and encouragement...I'm VERY flexible with my day and time so maybe that's the difference between me and someone who might not get it. ;)

We were unable to get Le Celler for our first pick, but did get it on Sept 10 at 8:30 PM.
That was really only hard one to get.:cloud9:

We were able to get it but at a late time - 8:15pm. At least we got it though - and we are pretty flexible as we have no small children.

well i sadly have to report that today was our 90 day mark and we couldn't get Le Cellier for dinner on the 9th :mad:, but that's ok we've been there before, we were still able to get everything else that we wanted, and i'll post them when we're done with our breakfest adr's . we will be at epcot again towards the end of our trip, maybe we can get lucky to have lunch there, which we never have done so we'll keep our fingers crossed for that.

Good luck and make sure you call right when they open! Unfortunately we checked every day of our trip from open till close for dinner and no luck...but it's all about when you call b/c two days later another intercotee got resies for dinner during our trip! Good luck and call call again if you don't get it initially! :thumbsup:

Yep. No problem. I got the first date (9/6) and first time that I asked for. I called on the day that my reservations window opened up, about 30 minutes after the reservation line opened.

We must have had good timing when we made our ADRs. We got the night we wanted and at a reasonable time. Our ADR was for 5:30 on Tuesday last week. That was the best meal we had the entire week long trip. Very good use of our meal plan!:thumbsup::mickey:

I was able to get a dinner ADR for 5:30 when I called today for our September trip. I have to admit I was surprised it was available, but very happy!

We made our ADR'S today and could not get dinner at LeCellier... The only time available was 12:25!:mad:

The free dining hurts us because it's not free for us! We are DVC members and don't get free dining!:ack:

Longtime reader first time poster here.

I called as soon as they opened and at first was given a choice of two times, however lost the one I really wanted (6pm) as it was grabbed by another reservation. So I did get 455pm instead...and it was for 14 of us!!

Going in 3 weeks! I started calling at 7:00am the day we could start making ADR'S. Was able to get Le Celler for 7 people. This was during the 4 nights, 3 nights free promotion.

I was able to get LeCellier last year during the free dining promotion. We preferred early dinner (4:30) since we were travelling with a small child. Ended up having to leave due to poor behavior but the food was really good!!!! Call the day reservations open and, as you said, you are flexible so that will work in your favor. Good luck!:thumbsup:

Called this morning and got Le Cellier at 6:00pm on the last evening of our visit - Sept. 22.

Looking forward to it, as this will be our first time and with all the hoopla, it sounds great.

I called at my 90 day mark and was unable to get Le Cellier for any of my days at EPCOT. However, I called each day and then started using the online site to check several times a day. Then finally last night I was able to get a reservation online for dinner at 5:55pm!!! Now everyone is Super Happy!!!

We have been lucky enough to eat here during free dining before but on a side note. For my aunt's trip 2 weeks ago I could only get lunch for her and she said it was amazing. She had never eaten here before but they really enjoyed the lunch. So if you can't get dinner grab the lunch you maybe able to grab a dinner time at a later time. Good Luck!!!

we got a 735 le cellier reservation during free dining. we called 90 days out and got it without a problem, a few hours later, it was already getting difficult when we called to alter it by an hour and it wasnt possible.soooo hard to get into this restaurant, but if you do, its sooo worth it!

Today was my 90 day mark. Called first thing this morning, got through immediately, and was still unable to get Le Cellier. Nothing available the entire week we're there (9/21-28). I got everything else I wanted (including Cindy's Royal Table Breakfast), but struck out on this one.

I called right at 7:00 a.m. this morning and was able to book Le Cellier at our preferred dining time of 8:00 p.m. for the 8th day of our trip. I was so excited because I really thought this one would be impossible. My husband makes a deal with me each year - he's only going if I can get us into Le Cellier!
