Sent from my iPhone using Forums Agree, it's a really nice benefit not to lose your money. I have 3 cards, one of which is from several years ago.

floridalover5623 Posted October 22, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Can the Coffee Card be used in the MDR? Of course. They have cappuccino in the DR so I'm sure they have all the rest of the specialty coffees as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachmets Posted October 22, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 22, 2017 You can also use your coffee card to get gelato or sundaes across from the International cafe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky TGO Posted October 22, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 22, 2017 You can also use your coffee card to get gelato or sundaes across from the International cafe! This is what I use my coffee card the most on. The Gelato is soooooo good.:D Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floridalover5623 Posted October 22, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 22, 2017 You can also use your coffee card to get gelato or sundaes across from the International cafe! You mean that ice cream they call gelato. Certainly not worth a punch on my card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JF - retired RRT Posted October 22, 2017 #12 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Thanks for responding. I'm going to trade my mini-bar in for coffee cards! That's my preference. We don't drink enough ETOH, soda or bottled water to make it worth it to keep the mini-bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floridalover5623 Posted October 22, 2017 #14 Share Posted October 22, 2017 We just got off the Royal and the gelato was excellent. They only call it gelato but bears no resemblance to the real thing other than it's name & appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smm0218 Posted October 22, 2017 #15 Share Posted October 22, 2017 First Princess cruise isn't for (too many) months but in my ongoing effort to know what to expect: Coffee Card can be purchased ahead or on the ship at the same prince? Card can be used for Specialty Coffees or Teas - one punch each Card can be shared Can be used for Gelato or Sundaes - one punch each Unlimited brewed (regular) coffee (where / how is coffee otherwise limited?) Coffee card can be used on subsequent cruises if punches left but not unlimited coffee Anything I've missed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smm0218 Posted October 22, 2017 #18 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Is it Specialty Coffees & Teas that require a punch. Brewed (regular) coffee and regular teas are unlimited (on original cruise only?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJSchell Posted October 22, 2017 #21 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Do you recall seeing begniets (sp?) at the IC in the morning? Had to look it up on Google image. There were cream filled donuts with powdered sugar on top if that's close to what you are looking for. They had a variety of choices and different ones throughout the week.

Brewed (regular) coffee and regular teas are unlimited (on original cruise only?) Getting unlimited brewed (actually dripped) coffee at the IC on the Royal is meaningless since there's unlimited dripped coffee at the Horizon all the time. It's the same stuff they give you at the IC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G900T using Forums mobile app Yes, that's what I was looking for. They used to have raspberry filled, but I didn't see them on the last Ruby cruise, only the cream filled. Not nearly as good! And yes, they have called them doughnuts the last couple of times I've seen them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
