Is the Rotterdam currently offering Sunday Brunch?

I would assume it would only be available on Sea Days, but can anyone who has sailed recently on the Rotterdam confirm that Sunday Brunch is indeed being offered?

Since embarkation day is every 7 days on Sunday there is definitely No Sunday Brunch and actually no day had any type of Brunch. The current sailing in Northern Europe has only 2 sea days.

Thanks so much. I should have thought to check that. When it gets to the Caribbean at the end of October, and goes to the 10 and 11 day schedules, I'll ask again.

We cruised a 14 day Scandinavian itinerary on Rotterdam in May and there was no Sunday brunch.

We cruised last December for 12 days Caribbean during the holidays and no brunch. With cutbacks I’d guess that there won’t be any. I’d love it if the Mariner brunch/lunch came back. I always loved the food offered.

Thanks everyone. I won't expect it and hopefully we'll be pleasantly surprised. 😋

I was told that the Sunday Brunch was for longer sailings when Sunday was not a port day.  I could find nobody that would tell me what was considered a "longer sailing".  The brunch menu was served on my Pacific Coastal cruise April 2022.

 

What a pleasant surprise to have prime rib for brunch!!

I've never heard of Sunday brunch?

So if you want eggs Benedict, bread pudding, fruit bowl and perhaps fish, you can enjoy Sunday brunch (type food) every day in the lido. 

 

And it is good stuff.....Enjoy the journey.....

Been on 15 HAL cruises, including an 18 day right now with 2 Sundays on it. Don't recall anything about a Sunday brunch. Certainly wasn't anything like that on this cruise.

This Sunday Brunch is harder to encounter than a Sasquatch.

The classic mega buffet Sunday Brunch went away around 2017 or so - they now have smaller menu onSunday-Brunch-13-march024.pdf longer sailings - somewhere around 14-20 days and more.    

 

Attached is a copy of the menu from the Zuiderdam from last March

 

Here is a more detailed post about the new style brunch from 2020
