Is Margaritaville still free for Haven guests on embarkation day?

I see differing info on whether Haven guests can still have lunch at Margaritaville - specifically on Breakaway. Thank you to anyone having recent experience.

On my 12/11/16 BA cruise in the Haven, Margaritaville was not offered for free at any time. Now, sail away was in freezing weather so I don't think it was even open. Maybe it's something they do in warm weather.

The embarkation lunch and cocktail reception in the Haven was more than enough for me!

Concierge's discretion (with F+B director) depending on crowd, weather, etc. I think they try to do it more often than not, but as noted the Breakaway faces weather challenges other ships do not.

We were on the Getaway 2/26 and it was free for us the first day.

Does anyone know if this (Margaritaville free for Haven pax on embarkation day) has happened on the BA lately? Thank you.

On our cruise on the BA last summer, it was NOT offered to Haven guests (we asked).

What about the Getaway?

Thank you for the update.

Two weeks ago it was offered on embarkation day on the Getaway

We were on the Breakaway last month and no mention of Margaritaville at all, we eat lunch in the Haven restaurant.

Been in the Haven on the Breakaway 3 times in the last 12 months ... never offered Margaritaville for free.

February 17th cruise Margaritaville was offered free on Escape (first day) for lunch and also (first night) Food Republic was offered to Haven guests at a discount.

Thanks everyone! We’re sailing on the BA soon and I’m really looking forward to it, but this sounds like one more reason that people love the Escape.

Can’t decide if we’ll eat at Margaritaville or not, but I would like to try their margaritas:p!

That's a nice option for both even if one is only discounted.

Yes it was in April. I’ve seen nothing to the contrary. We do it every time. It’s a great offer.

Yes, also in June. Concierge in opening speech mentioned lunch but nothing about FR. Asked butler, didn't know. FR folks did know all about it and the place was deserted.

What was the FR discount?

Been planning Margaritaville lunch for a while .... anyone have the conch fritters? I LOVE conch! Would like to try volcano nachos but DH not a big nacho person and no way can I make much of a dent in that massive portion on my own.

oops

1/2 off first day/night.

Thanks. May try it! Anything special at fr?

Everything we had was great. Potstickers always good. We ordered quite a bit for dinner and shared. Bill at 1/2 off was about $26 for four of us. It was so good we had some OBC left and went the last night for a few snacks before dinner. Place never had more than about 4 tables occupied. Service was also great.

just checked menu. OMG I'd rather use SDP there than some of the other options. Biggest problem is that too many things sound wonderful!

Don’t mean to get off topic but can you elaborate on BA weather challenges?? We are on her in November and was looking forward to Margaritaville lunch.

We were in the Haven on the Breakaway the first week of April this year. Margaritaville was never offered as comp the first day. Could have been weather related; it was pretty chilly out.
