Best place to eat when arrive on Anthem

[Lily2006]

Hi,

Is there a nice place to grab food when you arrive on Anthem? I know when I went on Oasis there was the park cafe with great food. Any suggestions for this big boat besides the Windjammer? Thank you

You will see Boarding Day Early Dining Options on page 2.

Having sailed on Anthem, my strong recommendation would be Cafe270. Get your food and grab some great seats in Two70 till your cabin is ready, or at least till you've eaten. :)

 

Have a great cruise!

Ditto to Cafe270. Great selection sandwich and soups as well as build your own salad plus dessert station.

Go to Cafe270, but expect a long line. It is Anthem's equivalent to the Park Cafe on Oasis.

Wow..do they have the roast beef sandwiches? I see suite guests get to go to Costal kitchen.Any good?

thanks

Yes, they do have the roast beef sandwiches. I liked them better on Anthem because the rolls weren't as terribly salty as they were on Oasis.

Yes, Cafe 270 has them.

 

Make sure to ask for 2 slices :)

Cafe 270 for roast beef sandwiches or great salads

They do, but I tried them twice and I guess I just don't understand why people think they are so special. The first time, on embarkation day, there was too little meat and the sandwich was too dry. Really underwhelming.

 

Knowing how beloved this sandwich is on RCI, I gave it another try later in the cruise. I asked for additional meat, and I asked for the horseradish mayo to be spread on both pieces of bread. Okay, that made it a decent roast beef sandwich, but nothing more.

 

I realize that food is subjective; ymmv.

We did Jaimies - it is pay at I believe $20 PP for lunch - but soooo worth it! We began on vacation immediatly

I went to Michaels Pub. Yes it cost a few bucks a la carte, but tasty and not crowded.

We had a party of 6 and no one could agree so we went to 270, Johnny Rockets, and WJ. I am a big salad eater and one tip I will impart is do NOT get a pre-made salad at 270. Have them make it up fresh. If they go to reach under to grab your salad stop them..lol. Think big bowl of salad filled to the top and then refrigerated to death...comes out half as big and wilted.

I may go to Coastal Kitchen but I really like the excitement of the Windjammer. Crazy I know. I'm not much on sandwiches while on vacation.

Michaels is free for Star class, yes??

We almost always go to Windjammer on the first lunch as a tradition, but I can't argue with anyone recommending Two70. The food there is very good and they have a nice salad bar as well. Also, that's where the fancy coffee place is located.

 

A tip: You can get bags of chips at Two70 if you just want a light snack.

 

So, if it were me, I'd go to Windjammer and if it's jammer'd full then I'd go to Two70.

 

There's just something special about the buffet on the first day.

Also... we thought the hot dog place was really good and a fun lunch. It's out of the way so you don't think about it, but you should plan it for a lunch while on board. It's tasty and fun and different than you get on other ships.

We went to Michael's Pub. It was not crowded and the food was delicious. Quite a way to start off on a great cruise on the Anthem. We love Michael's and Jamie's!

What about Solarium Bistro?

We are fortunate that we got to board early on both of our Anthem sailings. Headed to Cafe 270. No lines. And lots of options as to where to sit in 270. The people making the sandwiches will put on additional meats or cheeses. If you are getting a wrap they will give you as many as you want. There is no limit on the food. DH really likes the Kemmelwreck (sp?) sandwiches.
