mpcaruth Posted December 23, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I've seen numerous conflicting posts on here and FB regarding the Starbucks on the Escape. Can anyone confirm they have used Starbucks gift cards (or the App) for purchasing Starbucks coffee on the Escape? Many have said yes, but others have said no because there is not a "real" Starbucks on the Escape. The coffee shop just sells Starbucks coffee. My daughter loves Starbucks frappuccinos, and has many gift cards, she would like to use. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanishguy1970 Posted December 23, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 23, 2022 We were just on the Escape, and were not able to use Starbucks cards. I hope that helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all NCL ships have installed real Starbucks stores. Lots of places display the Starbucks logo saying “proudly serve Starbucks products”. But they are not Starbucks stores. Heck, the Shell gas station down the street from my house “proudly serves Starbucks products”,,, and I would not call their coffee Starbucks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still do not know if the Escape has a "real" Starbucks? Edited December 23, 2022 by mpcaruth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I don’t have the exact menu, but was on just before Christmas. They have the basic espresso drinks, cold brew, a few frappucinos, and tea. The syrups are only mocha, white chocolate, caramel, and vanilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note that there is another sign that says "If you don't see your favorite drink, just order it". The Escape does not show a Starbucks on their deck plans.

The escape doesn’t have a full Starbucks, so the menu is far less extensive than what is on the Prima. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the P+, so didn’t pay too much attention to prices, but they seemed to be similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedgie Wedgie Posted January 5, 2023 #14 Share Posted January 5, 2023 So answer me this Starbucks experts: We went on the Getaway during Thanksgiving in the Haven, we also dined in Cagneys and Ocean Blue. Every night my wife and I ordered a double Starbucks Espresso that was on the desert menu. We would also order shots of Maloneys and Kahlua and mix them all together- we would even ask for a large cup. Never charged once for any Starbucks Espresso. Then we sailed on Prima right before Christmas outside of the Haven and dined in 4 different specialty restaurants. Again we ordered the same after dinner drinks with the Starbuck Espresso- in Paloma I asked if there was a charge for the Espresso and the waitress said, "I'll take care of it, sir" and there was no charge. In Onda and Le Bistro again I asked and both times they said "no charge." Then in Cagney's I was told there was a charge for the Espresso and I simply changed the order to regular coffee and then still spiked it. We are hopping the Escape (back in the Haven) soon so we'll see what kind of consistency we receive there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
