mtjlr Posted January 20, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2008 It has been a few years since we have sailed Celebrity after a few cruises on Princess, and I cannot remember if they had coffee, lemonade, ice tea, and punch 24/7 available at the buffet. Princess does not, and I am having a hard time remembering how it was on Celebrity. Any info greatly appreciated. Thanks! We are sailing on Summit in 2 weeks.

nicaphile Posted January 20, 2008 #2 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I was on the Dec 2 Millenium TA and coffee and tea were available 24/7. Iced tea, lemonade was always available when I looked but cannot say for sure it was 24/7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txsloth Posted January 20, 2008 #3 Share Posted January 20, 2008 This is going to come off as very trollish, and I'm sorry in advance...and this isn't aimed only at you--I see questions like this all the time on here: how will any responses you get to your question change your trip? Would you cancel if the answer is no? Pack your own punch? Sorry for the tone, I'm in a mood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your question is perfectly fine - you're like me wanting to know all the little details in anticipation of cruising - thats half the fun for me. Please don't let others discourage you from posting. txsloth - we need to get you booked on a cruise and stuff you with waffles to cheer you up :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkjretired Posted January 20, 2008 #5 Share Posted January 20, 2008 bring a travel mug with you as the cups are really small.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason525 Posted January 20, 2008 #6 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I'm w/Acey, I like knowing what to expect & availiblity of those items helps me decide whether or not to get a soda card. It's January& everybody's in a bad mood. Why share it? Meg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raudacruise Posted January 20, 2008 #8 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Actually the plastic glasses can be small or large if you want iced tea or punch as well. It seems that the small are starting to outnumber the large. Besides the drinks, obviously ice is available. Also lemon is available. This is pretty much 24x7. For those of you wanting to put together a late adult drink ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also want to know if I get a cola package is there a place to get the coke at the buffet? Do you need to find a bartender and do they walk around the buffet area?

CathyCruises Posted January 21, 2008 #10 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Cola cards weren't even offered when we did the Med on Century this fall--never saw one. But on the Tahitian Princess last spring, you had to go to a bar to get your soda--there's no way they can monitor who has a card and who doesn't if they have it at the buffet. Of course there are probably several bars close to the buffet where you could load up. I also never saw punch available--iced tea and I believe lemonade were the cold beverages. Have a fun trip!

iflyrc5 Posted January 21, 2008 #13 Share Posted January 21, 2008 On the Galaxy they had several types of Bigelow tea but NOT lemon lift which my choice. I am not a coffee drinker but my wife said it was good. I know one night in the Orion she said it was very very strong. BTW - I have brought my larger travel mug on the last 2 trips - much better than their very small cups and plastic glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue46 Posted January 21, 2008 #14 Share Posted January 21, 2008 There is a basr right next to the buffet where you can get a soda with your card. We found that the waiters would get one for you especially once the found you had the sticker on you card. And after the first time most of the waiters remember who has a sticker and who doesn't. We found that if you are one that drinks more than 3 sodas a day it was more cost effective to get the soda sticker. Enjoy your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivep Posted January 21, 2008 #15 Share Posted January 21, 2008 On the Century in November coffee, lemonade, ice tea, and punch were all available 24/7 outside the cafeteria area. At least I presume it was what you would call punch... it was something like a passion fruit/guava fruit juice which was delicious. The home made ice creams from the buffet area were also excellent.
