Getting into Oga's Cantina

We had no problem getting one on day 6 of our 7 day trip. It was a lunch reservation but several options popped up.

it was the first one I tried for so if you plan it for the end of your trip and try for it first, you’ll probably be ok.
 
A lot opened up today for the week of July 4th, I was able to get a party of 9 with multiple time options.
 
I was just playing around with ADR's this evening for our 1st HS date in early August and there were 4 times available in the 9-10am range. I reserved one even though I hadn't tried to get one previously. I'm wondering if more slots were just opened up. Still can't get a Sci-Fi for that day though.
 
There is some morning availability July 19-24 now
 
Assuming you have a reservation and you check in “no more than 15 minutes prior to your reservation time,” how long are people waiting to enter?

Thanks!

I checked in around 1005 for a 1015 and we were inside before 1015.

The one thing I didn't expect was that there are not many tables in there and they're all made for big parties. We were given a spot at the bar even with two kids, my 3 yr old was given a high chair to push up to the bar top.

It's painfully clear they didn't think out how many people would need to be in there. It's very small. There's a couple cool things in there but overall the decor is just meh. If I didn't really want both souvenir glasses I could have done without it and now that we have them I see no need to ever go back.
 
We were able to snag a reservation for the first week of August. I was told by a pass holder that they are now allowing table sharing, which allows them to open up more dining reservations now.

Thanks. I appreciate the insight. My 18 year old nephew really wants to go to Oga's. I was able to get reservations for both days I have us at DHS. I'll cancel the second reservation if the one visit is sufficient. I have a group of 5: me, my sister, my 26 year old daughter, and sister's 18 year old son and 16 year old daughter. They'll probably enjoy it more than your 3 year old. We shall see. Thanks again @ForceofWill.
 
They didn't have chairs/stools at the bar before covid.

They don't want people getting comfortable in there.
That's exactly right. It's their way of enforcing the time limit, although I have exceeded it on several occasions but 15-20 minutes, and they have never seem to have minded. As long as you are still ordering snacks and things, I have never noticed them caring about it.
 
We'll be there at 9:35am during our August trip! A little early for a drink, but it was all we could get. And I was on at 6am on day 60. Every res was gone by 6:27 am for the whole week. Can't wait for 180 ADR's to come back!
 
That kind of defeats the purpose of taking a relaxing break 🙄

It was never meant to be a "relaxing break" for people. It's an "attraction"...a money-maker. That's why there's a drink minimum, and a time limit. Disney doesn't want folks sitting around, nursing a drink for two hours when there are hundreds lined up outside the door waiting to get in.
