Breakfast menu main dining room

[ilandlvr]

What is on the menu for breakfast in the main dining room? Thinking Caribbean Princess.

[ssbeagle]

You can get eggs prepared any way you want them, bacon, sausage, fruit juices and fruit, hot and cold cereal, pastries and breads, smoked salmon and bagel, pancakes and a lot of the other usual breakfast fare. They also have two special features every morning like french toast, eggs benedict.

It is the same as you would see in a nice restaurant for breakfast

Almost any "breakfast" item..in any combination...just order it! I love the dining room for breakfast!

[jean s]

I usually ask for an omelet. Pretty much any type I've asked for has been no problem.

On our recent Royal cruise, we found that we preferred eating breakfast in the MDR, rather than the Horizon Ct. Never a problem finding a table, good selection and quality, as summarized by SSBeagle, and no temptation to overload our plates, as often seems to happen in the buffet:(

[Rockymountainsparky]

Be sure to order a rasher of bacon. You'll love it.:D

[Putterdude]

There are the staples everyday but there are different specials every morning. I often have an egg dish with the smoked salmon and a bagel on the side...except on that morning when they feature the Alaskan Scramble which is scrambled eggs with smoked salmon.

[Infi]

Here is the daily breakfast menu. It is the same throughout the fleet. The last photo is an example of two of the specials that are offered, those change daily.

 

 

 

 

Hope that helps!

Of course! They come around with trays of fresh pastries and muffins; if you order a banana they will peel it and slice it for you before serving it. You can have as much of anything as you want. BTW, you can even order english style bacon if they have it. It's so much nicer eating in the MDR than the buffet because it is relaxing. You are served and don't have to stand on lines and then search for a table like you do in the buffet.

That sounds much better then the buffet breakfast. I hope I can talk DH into going to the MDR for atleast one breakfast. What time is the MDR open for breakfast?

[rdsqrl]

I love those scrambled eggs with asparagus . . . Good thing they don't have them every morning!

I believe the dining room opens for breakfast at 7? The times will be on each day's Patter.

I dont know the exact times but from my opinion it closed too early

[cruzhappy88]

Our first cruise was on the Grand Princess. We didn't go to the MDR for breakfast until the 7th day. Wow, It was fabulous We sure had missed out. We fellt a little ripped off that we hadn't discovered it before. Now we eat breakfast in the MDR as much as we can. As others have said, it is so quiet and pleasant. It's one of our favorite things while cruising. If you can choose favorites, that is. I don't think there is anything we dislike about being on a cruise ship!

What time is the MDR open for breakfast?

 

Usually either 7 AM-9 AM or 7:30 AM - 9:30 AM.

 

For late risers, the lunch menu (noon-1:30 PM) will have a couple of breakfast items on it.

[kruisey]

On Shore days opens at 7.00AM. Seadays 7.30AM. Or so it was on the Sapphire last October....

[Saruman]

BTW, you can even order english style bacon if they have it. .

 

Never knew that! Have only seen British bangers for BK at HC...never noticed British bacon there or in MD (and that was on a cruise out of Southampton.) Any Brits able to confirm this on other ships at other times? Full English/Scottish/Welsh Cooked Breakfast is one of life's blessings, although one's cardiologist might disagree.:p

[ilandlvr]

Too bad they do not open at 6am for those who don't want to loose any time at port on shore days. Looks great!

 

How about lunch menus? Anyone have copies of those to share?

I just spoke to my travel companion who insisted the main dining room doesn't serve breakfast any longer. Is this true? I will be on the Island Princess in two weeks for a 15 day trip and I was really looking forward to going to the MDR at least on the sea days if possible instead of the buffet. I told her I was pretty sure (from CC) that they did serve it but she didn't think so.

[MustangGT]

Yes, breakfast in the MDR is alive and well! We enjoyed it several times in late February on the Emerald.

I agree with the favorable vote for the asparagus/swiss cheese/eggs. Yummy!!

Your travel companion is incorrect.

[AKman2495]

We eat breakfast in the buffet only when we have to (like an early excursion off the ship). Other times we goo to the MDR because it is so nice. You can wear shorts and tee shirts if you like and you not only have great food, but great service in a non-crowded pleasant dining room.

 

Try it and you will love it!

Well, she is simply wrong.

[NavyVeteran]

I agree with the other posters about the MDR. I always eat breakfast in the MDR unless I have an early shore excursion.

 

I order a bagel with smoked salmon nearly every morning (it comes with capers, cream chees, a slice of onion, and a slice of tomato) along with an egg dish or their special. Nice and relaxing - and someone to wait on me.

 

I hesitated to make this comment, because I don't really want everyone else to discover the MDR for breakfast.;)

[Rusalka42]

How long does it take to eat breakfast in the mdr and can you have whatever you want off the menu? It's looks very tasty!
