Rare Cloud9 Bob Posted April 18 #1 Share Posted April 18 On my cruise last year brunch @ The Wake was a walk up thing. Now the information says "Brunch is available daily - please book onboard." Do they mean as soon as you arrive onboard and using the app or go directly to the restauraant (may not be open yet) and see someone at the podium, or Sailor Services or Razzle Dazzle? Anyone actually do this yet and can shed some light? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cantgetin Posted April 18 #2 Share Posted April 18 Yeah, we've made brunch reservations immediately after boarding. You CAN do walk up on a space available basis, but if you know when you want to do brunch at The Wake or Razzle Dazzle, you can book it as soon as you board. If you have a reservation, you will have a seat. We have never been turned away at RD, but once were turned away at The Wake when doing walk up; they did offer a reservation for the next day.

Rare Cloud9 Bob Posted April 18 Author #3 Share Posted April 18 Can you do the brunch reservations on the app once you are on ship wifi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon81uk Posted April 18 #4 Share Posted April 18 You can now book brunch in the app, same as dinner. This changed about 6-12 months ago. Before that it was book onboard. I’ve already got my reservation for brunch on Monday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvt8 Posted April 18 #5 Share Posted April 18 I booked before boarding, the same time as booking my evening dining when reservations opened. This was for a trip completed in January 2024. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior to boarding I was limited to only booking one dinner and one brunch for the Wake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airhose Posted April 18 #7 Share Posted April 18 Can one book a breakfast at 8 and a lunch at 12 on the same day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I imagine you could eat at Razzle Dazzle at 8 and the Wake 12 and book them onboard. Edited April 18 by dvt8 update text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sherry84 Posted April 18 #10 Share Posted April 18 I've been turned away at both The Wake and Razzle Dazzle, so now I book breakfast as soon as we board for both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverendingcruising Posted April 18 #11 Share Posted April 18 Razzle Dazzle books all dining when you are first boarding, after that book at the restaurant host stand or in app. Sailor services does not make dining reservations but they may message a restaurant for you. Brunch and breakfast are bookable prior to boarding now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britincanada Posted April 19 #12 Share Posted April 19 We were able to book brunch for our Nov 23 cruise in the app at the same time as dinner reservations. We made sure to book brunch at the The Wake for disembarkation day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cloud9 Bob Posted April 20 Author #15 Share Posted April 20 I'm having the same experience. Have they blocked booking the last day or is it their way of telling us brunch is full?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general walk up is not that difficult, but there are some days, especially sea days, where the wait can be a long one without a reservation. Same with Razzle Dazzle.

Once you're on the Ship WiFi you can make brunch reservations for debarkation day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a cruise upcoming in May, and when my restaurant reservations opened up at the 45min mark, it actually let me make brunch reservations as Wake and Razzle Dazzle, so I did it. I was surprised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cantgetin Posted April 22 #22 Share Posted April 22 I'm on Scarlet now, and it appears that brunch on disembarkation day is blocked was blocked until on board. I tried from day 45.....was able to finally book today (first full day of cruise). It wasn't available right after embarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
