Rare JessyCruises Posted September 17, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 17, 2016 There is no separate Starbucks location, but they serve Starbucks at Cafe Promenade. There is a charge. The ultimate package used to cover the Starbucks drinks (at least it did in spring 2015). I am not sure about the new deluxe package Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Terre Posted September 18, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 18, 2016 We were on the FOS last week. Here are the beverage package options: "Premium Coffee" may be Starbucks, but I'd check with RCI to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted September 18, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 18, 2016 No "package" works at Starbucks....or the mini-bar. Wrong. With the new updated drinks packages the Deluxe package now includes the stand alone Starbucks on Oasis class ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted September 18, 2016 #8 Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) Yes it has a Starbucks in cafe promenade as stated in the above post. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Freedom has a cafe promenade that serves Starbucks coffee. Only the Oasis class ships have a stand alone Starbucks. The difference now does not really matter as the coffee from the Starbucks on Oasis class ships is now included in the Deluxe package.

Ken at the beach Posted September 18, 2016 #10 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Did I say it was stand alone?i said there is a Starbucks in cafe promenade!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums For the purpose of the discussion of whether Starbucks was included in the drinks packages there are the stand alone kiosks on Oasis class and on the other classes of ships there are different coffee venues (Cafe promenade) that serve Starbucks products but are not considered Starbucks. With the old drink packages you could get Starbucks products at the coffee venues but not at the stand alone Starbucks kiosks. With the new packages the stand alone Starbucks kiosks are included. Aldo only the stand alone kiosks will accept Starbucks gift cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollyeilis Posted September 18, 2016 #11 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Did I say it was stand alone?i said there is a Starbucks in cafe promenade!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums But it isn't "a" Starbucks. It's an espresso kiosk that, right now, "proudly serves" Starbucks espresso. It could change tomorrow.

Its café promenade. Often it serves specialty (espresso based) coffee in Starbucks cups - that coffee may or may not be made from Starbucks beans.

Why would Starbucks let them put coffee in a cup with their name on it with an inferior product that's not up to the Starbucks standards. That's just total BS.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Happens in alot of places. Unless it is a Starbucks licensed location they can do just about anything. Keep in mind, they do not advertise them self as a Starbucks, just the "We proudly serve" sign. Even behind the counter they don't wear a green apron. Read: https://solutions.starbucks.com/your-business/hotel-lodging Added: See this also: http://www.starbucks.com/business My guess is most ships fall under having the Brewed, Espresso, and Blended platforms. With Oasis, Allure, and Harmony being the only licensed locations. Listing of licensed locations: http://www.starbuckseverywhere.net/LicensedStores.htm Odd thing is Harmony is missing and the listing of "Sunshine" Edited September 18, 2016 by chandom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chandom Posted September 18, 2016 #16 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Wanted to add another thing, cups.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Just going by memory on only seeing black aprons being used. I just never recalled seeing a green one. Using a green apron is deceiving.
