On Freedom Class (specifically Liberty and Freedom)--suite dining?

On Freedom class ships, do suites have any special dining venues? Any set-aside space for breakfast/lunch?

No suite dining areas. On Liberty suite pax have access to Giovanni's Table for cooked to order breakfast and a limited lunch menu on sea days. There is a very nice Suite Lounge on deck 14 only for suite pax and Pinnacle C&A members. There is a very nice continental breakfast every morning and a 3.5 hour "cocktail time" each evening with wine, beer, sodas and basic mixed drinks. The lounge is open 24/7 and there is a coffee machine for lattes, cappicinos etc.Great sea views there. Don't know if Freedom has the suite lounge yet.

There was also lunch at least they had it last year n Giovanni’s on sea days, it was a very small menu and not Italian

By "access" do you mean that lunch on sea days and breakfasts are free for passengers sailing in suites? Is breakfast in Giovanni's available every day for suite guests? And what type of dishes are on the limited menu?

Thanks, Pat

Yes, free to suite guests. Lunch is typically either strip steak, salmon or chicken. Breakfast is every day, different times whether a sea day or port day. Typically, port days are 7-9 AM and sea days 8-10 AM with eggs various ways including benedict, pan cakes, fruit, various pastries, omelets, meats, etc.

You can also bring in food from wj and eat it there , less noise than wj, also waiters for drinks , handy with the drink package

Thanks so much for your reply. Our only other cruise in a full suite was many years ago and was a last-minute upsell, so this time we're trying to find our way around before we get on board.

Thank you, Pat

Many thanks. I suppose since Freedom class is smaller than Anthem and Oasis classes, there are no plans for a Coastal Kitchen--but it would be nice.

We normally don’t grand suites on rccl but have not been on ship with costal kitchen yet , will do oasis next. Really was impressed with very recent celebrity cruise, all of there ships have suite restaurant and there suite lounge has real drinks all day fro morning till midnight not just 3 hours like rccl

On Freedom - Grande Suites and above and Pinnacle's - sit down cooked to order breakfast in Chops last week.

If you are in a Grande Suite and above you can order the MDR menu (as well as room service menu) for dinner to be delivered to your stateroom at no charge and no added gratuity (though nice to tip whoever does the delivery.)

Grande Suite and above and Pinnacle comp lunch served in either Giovanni's or Chops (designated by the ship).

Diamond Plus, Grande Suites and above and Pinnacle can have continental breakfast in the Concierge Lounge (no hot foods.) On the Freedom the Concierge Lounge is still Concierge Lounge and will not be changed over to Suites Lounge until dry dock (I believe 2019...)

Long time sailing on numerous lines but first time in a Grande Suite with RCI. What is a Concierge Lounge and how is it different from a Suite Lounge? We have made use of Concierge lounges with Marriott with their happy hour drinks and hors d'oeuvres. Are you saying that does not happen in the RCI concierge lounge?
