Mowiteem Posted July 22, 2013 #1 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I'm a big coffee drinker. Are there coffee makers in the room? If not should I bring my mini Keurig? Is coffee included for breakfast? Vicki.... Proud to be a Jersey Girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicki.... Proud to be a Jersey Girl Coffee is included for all meals and also various other venues around the ship, one or more of which will be open close to 24 hours. Coffee makers are only in Junior Suite and better staterooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mein18 Posted July 22, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I am a huge coffee drinker and always the first to hit the pots in the morning. Depending on which ship you will be on, it is almost always available and I must add, it's not too bad. I suggest you bring an insulated coffee mug or purchase one on the ship. Keeps it hot and can fit a lot more in it than their paper cups. Biggest problem I have found is during the busy periods, they run out of cups or lids or something. Our last cruise they ran out of lids on day 5 and if I didn't have the mug, it could have been quite messy. Guess they hadn't planned on me being on board using up the supplies. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicki.... Proud to be a Jersey Girl Not sure if you are allowed to bring coffee makers on board, but they do have room service and you can have a couple of pots delivered whenever you want! We do that and have coffee on the balcony before going to breakfast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wh0amelli Posted July 22, 2013 #5 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Op, I need my coffee too. I don't exactly love the coffee they offer, and sometimes take a trip to Starbucks, but it's caffeine! I also bring Splenda with me, because I don't always find it available all the time. A friend of mine always brings her favorite liquid creamer, I think they only have milk and half and half, I could be wrong though.. Just a thought, everyone takes their coffee differently.

Langley Cruisers Posted July 22, 2013 #6 Share Posted July 22, 2013 If not should I bring my mini Keurig? Coffee makers (Keurig included, I'm sure) is on the list of prohibited items. And frankly, why would you bring this? I see from researching your previous posts that you will be on Grandeur. They have a coffee shop called Lattétudes where you can purchase freshly brewed coffee and specialty coffee, which may be more to your liking than the complimentary Windjammer buffet or dining room coffee. You'll figure it out. ;) Have fun. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer976 Posted July 22, 2013 #7 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Yes, most of the free coffee on cruise ships is incredibly awful . . . but I still drink it. The only good part of the end of a cruise is looking forward to my first morning back at home with a mug or two (or three) of delicious coffee w/my favorite creamer.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowiteem Posted July 22, 2013 Author #8 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Wonderful, having a cup right now as I spend my time on this forum when I should be packing. Vicki.... Proud to be a Jersey Girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one cruise we did see the little packets of flavored creamers but not on any others. Just half & half, whole milk and skim milk. The coffee makers in the suites make the WORST cup of coffee. Between the taste and trouble putting it all together, easier to order a pot via room service or run down to wherever you can get it on the ship. Next to a good glass of wine, nothing beats a great cup of coffee on the balcony watching the sun rise and/or pulling into port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollon Posted July 22, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Also, remember you can always get hot water and bring the individual packets of instant coffee. If your a starbucks drinker, they are good. I usually buy the french roast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowiteem Posted July 22, 2013 Author #11 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Ah yes, I used lots of those Starbucks instant coffees pouches when we lost electricity for two week when Sandy hit our area. Not too bad... But good in a pinch. Vicki.... Proud to be a Jersey Girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess that since a kettle produces heat, it's prohibited: http://www.royalcaribbean.com/customersupport/faq/details.do?pagename=frequently_asked_questions&pnav=5&pnav=2&faqSubjectName=Onboard+Policies&faqId=2608&faqSubjectId=333&faqType=faq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Seattle's Best, seemed like a dark roast as it was a lot stronger than what I usually drink. Completely drinkable and never once needed to go to Starbucks and pay for coffee.

ehfl Posted July 22, 2013 #16 Share Posted July 22, 2013 No need to bring a coffee maker (they're not allowed anyway). You can order coffee from room service. Plus, you're just steps away from many venues where coffee is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
