Coffee

[babs135]

We will be on the Queen Victoria in December. Is there any where other than the Lido where I can get free coffee  during the day?  Just thinking that if I'm in the theatre  and want a drink between talks it's a bit of a trek up to deck 9.

To my knowledge there is nowhere else to get free coffee apart from Lido everywhere else it is payable.

The only other place on QE/QV is the Grill Lounge, or on QM2, the Grill Lounge and Concierge Lounge.

On QM2 there's a free coffee/tea station downstairs from the entrance to the Illuminations theatre/planetarium. It's where the daily planetarium tickets are distributed.

Just a thought, but depending on where you cabin is, it might be an option to go back there and made a coffee.

But the Op is asking about QV not QM2.

Has that reopened? I was going to suggest that location, but it was closed in December. And I seem to recall it still being closed in July. It's a spot I relied on, so I hope it's eventually brought back. And I was following this thread to, hopefully, find its equivalent on the QV.

The response above mine offered info re: QM2 that I sought to clarify.

No idea. I was last on in Jan 2020. I'll know more on Sunday.

Currently on the QM2, no coffee or tea offerings in the area behind Illuminations.  Asked crew when this would resume, responses were no current plans to resume. In fact, that area is looking a little forlorn.  So only place for free coffe or tea in the King’s Court (aka the buffet) or one’s cabin.

Don’t they still have specialty coffee at Sir Samuel Cunard area along with offering a few sandwiches?    This was available pre COVID and I hope it will be available in December.

[Underwatr]

Yes, but there's a charge for the coffee at Sir Samuel's.

[Covepointcruiser]

So glad it’s still on offer in that location.   We will have drinks up to $12 included so coffees won’t be a problem.

I am considering purchasing the $10 coffee package on my upcoming QV cruise. 
can anyone help me out with prices for coffees if you were buying them without a package? For instance how much is a regular latte and do you then have to pay a gratuity on top of that price? 
If I consumed 2 lattes each day would it be more sensible to buy the package?

Thank you
