Hi all, are leaving the 12th of May on Glory for 7 days!!! YEAHHHHH! My DH is an early riser and wondered other than room service is there somewhere to get a cup of coffee free when he is up and about early?

Any one have any info on this? Thanks.:)

We'll be getting off the Glory when you're getting on!

There are coffee stations up in the Red sail dining room that are open 24 hours a day!

We were also on the Glory last year at this time, and we are also early risers. If I remember correctly, room service was available beginning at 5:30 am

I believe you can get coffee from room service or the buffet 24/7

Being the terrible coffee addict that I am, yes you can get coffee 24/7. I have not been on the Glory but I have been on other ships and the Lido Deck coffee is not the best but it does what it's supposed to do. Sometimes I fill a water glass with ice and make iced coffee. In the afternoons I sometimes throw in a scoop of vanilla ice cream into my coffee. Coffee is a wonderful thing. I am not usually up at 5:30 in the morning, but I am lucky if I can sleep until 7:00.

i'm a coffee fanatic too. it's available 24 hrs like the above posters have stated. i always bring a travel coffee mug w/ me on every cruise (well, except once when i forgot it, and was devastated, until i found a nice one ion the gift shop:) ).

 

the cups on Lido are not that big, and if you walk away w/ a full cup, it'll just splash over. my thermal travel mug is much bigger, and has a lid. i wash it w/ a dish wand, then "sterilize" it if you will, by filling it w/ hot (tea) water from Lido (after cleaning it in the cabin, of course).

Yea, the lido coffee leaves a lot to be desired. I never thought of the ice cream trick. That would help. It's usually strong and kinda funny tasting. I think the coffee from room service is a bit better, but it might just be my mind.

i think the Lido coffee is better also but i don't want to drag myself down to the Lido at 5:30 am so i leave my room service card for a pot of coffee hanging from my door when i go to bed, at 5:30 my coffee arrives and it also serves as my wakeup call.

 

Room service can be ordered 24 hours a day.

I can't believe that after 17 cruises I never thought to bring a travel thermal mug. What a great idea, thanks.

I find the coffee mugs on the Lido Deck too small and I have spilled much coffee over the years (and on myself). Carnival should get smart and sell the thermal travel mugs. For all I know, maybe they do.

i only looked for it twice -- once when i forgot it (on Fantasy), and they had a nice metal red carnival one; and then once on elation (b/c i was walking around the gift shop, coffee in tow, as usual), and a woman asked me where to get the travel mug. we looked around together, but it wasn't for sale in elation's gift shop.

i do this on excursion days. other days, DH goes up to get the first cup for me (spoiled, he doesn't even drink coffee), b/c i don't really move well until after that 1st cup. after cup 1, i get off my rump, and get my own.:D
