Drinks on Board

[mr&mrspugwash]

We are about to go on a cruise on the Voyager. We can't find any sensible information about the cost of alcoholic drinks on board. We've heard about the wine package arrangement on some cruises but we couldn't find any details of the per bottle prices or what kind of wine you get in the package deals. We also don't know how much a simple beer (or two!) costs. Can anyone help us with this information? :cool: :p

Here are drink menus from the pub, schooner, and champagne bars on EOS. Not sure how recent they are but the prices seem to be the same as what we paid on NOS in January:

You can also get beer by the bucket. I believe it is five cans (in a bucket of ice) somewhere in the price range of $17-18. Someone who has done this more recently please correct me if I am wrong.

[cmason]

The beer by the bucket is simply buy 5 get one free. Beer prices are the same as those posted above (with one free of course). They put them in a bucket of ice. You can get any beer they serve this way (bottle or can)

[ladiebug05]

Please remember that the drinks that are delivered around by the pool are usually in glasses you can keep and they are usually up to $5.00 more than if you order from the bar in a regular glass. Most frozen drinks are $4.50 in a regular glass.

[digital_curator]

Yes on the NOS foo-foo drinks in a regular glass were $4.25 and $5.95 in a "souvenier glass" and you get the souvenier glass unless you specificly ask for a regular one.

 

There was also a martini of the day special but the compass does not list a price....

Thanks such a lot for the room service photos,-looks like we might just sit on the balcony, and gorge ourselves stupid!!! I'll have to pack lots of Tylanol...

[lszu]

I think the drink of the day runs around $3.95 or something like that in a regular glass. Souvenier glasses are more, of course.

[erntrish]

From our experience last week on EN:

 

- Martini Happy Hour in the Schooner 4-8PM - save like $1-$1.50 on ANY martini

- Mojito in Boleros (the BEST!) $6.04 incl. gratuity

[Chevdiver]

I just got off the Explorer. My rum drinks around the pool were 5.95 + tip so it actually was about 6.85 each for the "drink of the day". I ordered a Pina Colada instead of the "drink of the day" and it was $8.95 + tip. I also gave my server an additional tip for being a great server and he always brought me 2 extra shots of rum on the side as a bonus. We also had the same server at some of the shows and got the same excellent service there as well. I found that if I took care of my servers early in the cruise, they took care of me for the duration. i only used two servers for my drinks and they both learned our names and would always say hello and treat us like royalty.

Anyone happen to know the size of the wine bottles ?

 

They should either be 750 ml or 1.5 liter bottles.

My wife and I love Beringer White Zinfindel and buy it at home in the Supermarket for $ 6.99 for a 750 ml bottle and 10.99 for a 1.5 liter bottle.

I would hope you would not be paying $25 a bottle for a 750 ml bottle on the ship.

[AkSusan]

All the wine we had on the Jewel through the wine package was 750 ml and others ordered some wine just off the wine list one night and it was only 750 ml. If I remember correctly White Zin was in the $20 to $24 price range + 15% tip. I never saw any 1.5 liter bottles.

I plan to get the 'drink of the day' w/ the keepsake glass my first day onboard...I want one glass to take home.

 

;)

 

I just turned 21, so am curious on the menu it's got liquors for 5 bucks... that's a shot correct? So if you wanted to make a rum & coke or something you could order the coke and shot of the rum correct?

[AkSusan]

No I'd just order a rum and coke or in my case a rum and diet coke :D And make sure you order just the regular size after you get your first glass because if you don't say just a regular you'll be getting multiple souvenoir glasses.

 

Susan :)

[kenandlaura06]

Thanks for the info, everyone.

[PTarbay]

Is there a discount for refilling the souvenir glasses?
