Where to get food after midnight for free?


Recommended Posts

Sorry to hijack, but I'm going on the FOS in January and so far the biggest ship I've been on is Radiance. Is there other options for the late night hours we're talking about in this thread on Freedom? We will hopefully be out having a great time til the wee hours of the morning, and I'm sure we'll want to temper the alcohol with a little food....:p

Avoid meal 4? It's all I can do to actually get my 6 meals in when cruising because I want to do so much other stuff. On port days, I simply write off the thought of even coming close...

 

Seriously I could easily eat six meals a day on a cruise. But I'm constantly reminded of the calories so I TRY to keep myself in check. If I didn't care about the calories, I would probably have food in my hand every two hours, no exaggeration. I likes me food and I'm always hungry. Otherwise I'd be 240 instead of 140. :( Damn calories...

Slightly better options on Freedom class ships:

 

Johny Rockets will be open until about midnight ($4.95)

Sorrentos pizza will be open until 2 or 3: pizza, breadsticks, salad & antipasti and desserts (free)

Ben & Jerrys (per item charge) will be open until about 11:30 or so

Cafe Promenade is basically 24 hours: little sandwiches, pastries (free)

 

We often grab a little snack and take it to one of the bars with us (helps soak up the alcohol :D)

 

Enjoy!

The Royal Promenade -- there are two eateries at opposing ends on Deck 5. That's about it. Free pizza and other small nick nacks. Otherwise, hoard while Johnny Rockets is still open. :D

Not all the ships have Solarium Cafes (unless they've been added), but those ships do have the Promenade Cafe (which is terrific). The Promenade Cafe is open nearly, but not quite, 24/7.

OP's question was for ships that don't have Promenade cafe, e.g. Jewel!!!

Remember in the "good old days" when the guys used to come into the club with the trays of finger food/desserts? I wonder why they stopped doing that?

The WJ isn't open late on the Majesty. One night there'll be a deck party starting at 11:30pm so you could pig out then.

 

I remember going to bed around 1, 1:30 on the Majesty with a quick stop at Sorrent's (free) Pizza. They were still open and there were a few people in there. There was nowhere else to eat. They have no specialty restaurants, no promenade...and JR and Compass Deli were also closed.

 

If you ask, they do have a YUMMY snack bowl in...um...yeah...that lounge with the piano right next to the casino. WOW I'm totally blanking on the name and they have one on every ship. JEEZ. But if you want to munch but you're not starving, have a drink and ask for a thingy of snacks. :)

 

***** is the name of that bar/lounge? WOW...

Yes, and since the responses and additional questions included other classes of ships, making it a broader topic, I thought I'd mention that. Sorry if it was too much information.:rolleyes:

[quote name='kyriecat']The Sea View cafe on Radiance class ships used to be open until around 2 AM. Have they stopped that now? I'd rather have a bowl of chili than pizza at that time.[/quote]

From my research of the Serenade, the Seaview Cafe closes at midnight. Not sure if it stays open longer on other Radiance class ships.

I remember Radiance in particular (AK cruise) was really quiet after midnight. Sometimes I felt like the only one still awake. Brilliance was a Med cruise so there were more party people onboard.

I'm so glad to know I wasn't the only one that felt that way on Radiance!!:o
