Rare SpainAlien Posted November 20, 2020 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I know they have a breakfast menu and I have seen the standard menu with wings, fish and chips, etc., but do they do a different evening meal menu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have an express breakfast menu. A standard menu (most of the day). There is usually a special of the night. Then a late night menu that goes all night long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
complawyer Posted November 21, 2020 #5 Share Posted November 21, 2020 im not trying to sound like a snob or a complete diva, but with the dining choices available (main and specialty dining) why would anyone want to have dinner at o'sheehan's. i only go there as a last resort if all else is closed, and even then, i find the food is nothing to write home about. it's just so so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks everyone for you input it's very helpful, I'll have to keep my eye out for prime rib night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonvoyagie Posted November 21, 2020 #7 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Standard pub fare most of the day - breakfast till 11:00 then the pub menu. Not sure if or when the "late night" menu goes into effect - I have been there at 11:00PM for a quick snack and saw the same menu as the rest of the day. On our last cruise we liked the fact that we could sleep in and still be able to grab breakfast there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastalbreezes Posted November 21, 2020 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2020 While the menu remains the same for day and evening (late night menu has burgers, dogs, wings), there is usually a different soup each day, some quite good. The fajitas are one of my favorite items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKR2011 Posted November 21, 2020 #9 Share Posted November 21, 2020 We only do longer sailings, and there is always one night that my husband wants wings and beer for dinner, so O'Sheehans delivers. It's usually a big port day when we don't want a long drawn out meal. What we don't do is the Garden Cafe for dinner. That just seems more like a cafeteria to us, so we save that just for breakfast on port days and mid afternoon snacks on sea days. Freestyle = choice, and that's why we cruise NCL. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shepherds pie with ground beef, for shepherds who tend their flocks of cattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowardK Posted November 21, 2020 #13 Share Posted November 21, 2020 One of the best parts of the cruise was starting there 11:30 on day 1 with a corned beef sandwich, two dark and stormy's and my Kindle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oteixeira Posted November 21, 2020 #15 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I think what's important to remember is there are so many choices and they all have their time and place. In Feb of 2020 my cruise had a prime rib night at the pub, so maybe it depends on the cruise (I was on a 7 day Escape). I use O'Sheehans for late night snacks, and honestly, it's good as a pub food, which is all it claims to be. The menu you can find online is basically standard every day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand and Seas Posted November 21, 2020 #16 Share Posted November 21, 2020 We have only used O'Sheehan's for dinner when we want something simpler. It's nice for 'comfort food' or salad. Since we usually sleep late O'Sheehans is a great place to start our day. If we miss their breakfast menu I like Shephard's Pie or Bangers & Mash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Because sometimes you just want to change things up, especially on a long cruise. You get tired of "fine dining" and long meals in the MDRs and specialty venues, and you just want some simple, comfort food. It's also why we sometimes will eat dinner in the buffet. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can pass onthe prime rib and get a better steak at cagneys. my question still remains, with all those other excellent choices, why bother with o'sheehans? well, to each his own. If you enjoy the place, more power to you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare debenson0723 Posted November 21, 2020 #19 Share Posted November 21, 2020 O'Sheehan's/The Local has a cocktail that you can only get there...the Glacier Freeze. Reason enough for me to go there. On the inaugural Bliss Panama Canal cruise, we ate fish and chips there at 3am while watching the royal wedding on the big screen in the Atrium. Good times! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowardK Posted November 22, 2020 #20 Share Posted November 22, 2020 O Sheenan's isn't just about the food its the ambience. I ate at the bar on the Epic (didnt drink that cruise) and often people from the ship would stop by and eat or have some drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
