Rare Cloud9 Bob Posted September 8 #1 Share Posted September 8 Is there such a thing on any of the ships? The soda pop kind. I'd gladly pay extra for it, but have never seen it. Does it exist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted September 8 #2 Share Posted September 8 I don't remember if Barqs was available on the self serve machines in the Galley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon81uk Posted September 8 #3 Share Posted September 8 I’ve not seen it available. The options on the self-serve soda machines or from bartenders are Coke Diet Coke Coke Zero Sprite Fanta orange Seagrams ginger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cloud9 Bob Posted September 8 Author #5 Share Posted September 8 It doesn't seem to be popular in the UK and Europe. Maybe VV knows it would not sell well in those markets and never considered it for US based cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are on Resilient now, can you tell me if they offer a full English breakfast as an option, during breakfast time? if so, how is the quality?

Take a look at the menu for the Galley food court https://vvinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/the-galley-breakfast-follow-vvinsider.pdf The diner counter has some of the items, but they are all American style, streaky bacon and chicken sausage. Razzle Dazzle has a breakfast plate on the menu https://vvinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/razzle-dazzle-brunch-follow-vvinsider.pdf But it’s served with vegan sausage patty and the bacon is candied with a lot of pepper. Personally my go-to breakfasts are pancakes in the Galley, waffle in Razzle Dazzle or steak and eggs in The Wake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kordy Posted September 12 #11 Share Posted September 12 Is steak & eggs in The Wake easily available every day, as a walk-in, for a quick breakfast? The Wake is typically a bookable restaurant with limited space... and a proper sit-down experience which takes time and is not best suited for breakfast. I mean, I never thought of it as a straight forward breakfast option! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I never thought of it as a straight forward breakfast option! It’s available every day for brunch/breakfast. Whether they will allow you in as a walk up depends how busy it is. How quick it comes out depends on how busy it is and the quality of your server. But we’ve had a two course brunch/breakfast at The Wake in about 45 minutes with coffee, juice, pastry, main and dessert. Oh the menu only lists the paid-for drinks, the free from-concentrate juice is still available in The Wake and Razzle Dazzle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be clear you are asking for "regular", not "freshly-squeezed". Most servers will know exactly what you mean. But out of the last three cruises, I was offered free OJ exactly once (other times I had to ask for it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I never thought of it as a straight forward breakfast option! You are very likely safe if you go as soon as they open at 8am, even without a reservation. It won't be as quick as a "buffet" or The Galley but can be reasonably quick. On our first VV cruise last year (Scarlett) they took forever, but on our last three cruises this year service was pretty speedy especially if you order only one course and tell them you want to be out quick.
