Csardas Posted June 27, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (1st timer, next week) I know we can go to Barista's and get coffee there but can we order in any of the lounges or bars if we fancy a relaxed read and a coffee? From the photographs, it doesn't look as if there are many seats in Barista's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fam_Cruise Posted June 27, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 27, 2017 It's literally right next to the library, so coffee and a read in a comfy environment is no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruseforme Posted June 27, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 27, 2017 The bars usually will have a pot. I know there is a self serve pot in the Casino Bar, and the Terrace. However, it's not a specialty coffee, just a pot of their regular coffee. Horizons has a breakfast service, and coffee, but usually have to order coffee during the day, until tea time. DH drinks coffee all day, so he scoped out all the places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ORV Posted June 27, 2017 #4 Share Posted June 27, 2017 It's literally right next to the library, so coffee and a read in a comfy environment is no problem. Which ship? On the R ships it's about 5 decks away from the Library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the photographs, it doesn't look as if there are many seats in Barista's. Just ask a crew member they will get one for you There are 2 small areas either side of Barristas with table & chairs You can use the self serve machine in Terrace or Horizons or ask at the bar some will have the regular Bunn machines with a pot of coffee depends where you are & what type of coffee drink you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH drinks coffee all day, so he scoped out all the places. Actually, the Terrace & Horizons have a self service espresso machine (not a pot of coffee). Not quite as good as Baristas but not bad.

Rare ORV Posted June 27, 2017 #9 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Also on the O ships if you have access to the Concierge or Executive lounge there are espresso machines in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruseforme Posted June 27, 2017 #10 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Where is the self serve in the Casino bar ? I must have missed that one On the Riviera this winter, it was on the corner of the bar...one of those pump pots, with about a dozen cups next to it. It was there on sea days only, when the casino was open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mura Posted June 28, 2017 #13 Share Posted June 28, 2017 This thread has made me realize something ... When at home I make a pot of coffee in the morning and drink it up. (When in college I drank coffee all day in vast amounts, but that was a long time ago.) But when I'm on the ship I'll have it at breakfast and pretty much not any more during the day. Maybe a cappuccino after dinner, but that's it. So needing my coffee jolt during the day isn't a consideration when on board ... I do have sympathy for those who want their coffee frequently during the day! But it really shouldn't be a problem on board ... that's what room service is for, if not the all-day access at various places on the ship. I do think it's easier on Marina or Riviera than it is on the smaller ships ... Mura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvmovielover Posted June 28, 2017 #14 Share Posted June 28, 2017 All the good places on the O ships have been mentioned but our next trip is on Nautica. Will some coffee hound (especially someone who looks for coffee really early) tell me the good spots on the R ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiks Posted June 28, 2017 #15 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Baristas opens at 6:00AM I believe and is located at the entrance of the GDR--especially convenient if you have breakfast in the GDR. WIKS Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mylisa Posted June 29, 2017 #18 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Does anyone know if they can't do soy product? I really enjoy a latte but it has to be dairy free for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not certain that they do but I believe that I have heard someone ask for it in the past thus I assume they have it. Hopefully someone will know for sure.

Rare Harters Posted June 30, 2017 #20 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I see that, according to the website, Barista's is open until "early evening" so presumably that doesnt work for my after dinner espresso. Any suggestions for a good place to go? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will some coffee hound (especially someone who looks for coffee really early) tell me the good spots on the R ships? IMHO, the best place for really early coffee is in my bed! Fill out the room service card at night, with a time, of course, and it will be delivered to your room! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
