CeleBrat Posted November 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 1, 2023 What times are the buffet open? And are there places within the buffet to get "free" drinks like lemonade, punch, juice, hot chocolate? Or will I be stuck just drinking water for a week? Thanks!--CeleBrat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!--CeleBrat Lol I know dinner starts 6 pm, kinda late. Not sure if breakfast is always the same. Yes of course there are free drinks ks. Coffee tea, iced tea lemonade. Flavored water. OJ and apple juice during breakfast. I drink the lemonade mostly unless they have mango water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeybandit Posted November 1, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 1, 2023 There are other places on the ship besides the Windjammer to get coffee/tea and depending on the ship other complimentary drinks, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG65CB Posted November 1, 2023 #5 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Of course Windjammer (buffet) hours vary per ship and sailing and even if it is a sea day or not, but they are generally similar. Here's the schedule from a recent cruise: Breakfast 6:30 - 11:00 AM Lunch 11:45 - 4:00 PM Dinner 6:00 - 9:00 PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paross4 Posted November 1, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) I saw the thread title and thought, YEAH! Jimmy Buffett music time and free alcohol! I'd go for that! Then I looked closer.... Good question though. 😉 Edited November 1, 2023 by paross4 typo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, so it sounds like the buffet is not an all-day (persay) option, whereas Sorrento's and Cafe Promenade are. And, there is flavored water available anytime?

Unless I am getting confused with some of the other lines I have been on, the drink station at the windjammer is open from at least 6 am til midnight. Water, coffee, tea, lemonade, maybe a fruit punch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deliver42 Posted November 3, 2023 #22 Share Posted November 3, 2023 depending on the ship. Quantum class you can go to 270 for "free" drinks. The bistro in the solariums on most ships also have drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
