Not a lot of difference in my humble opinion, after Cunard have added their 15%, and it depends on how long your voyage is and of course what you consume. Also bear in mind that all 'drinks' will be added to your on board account, so it is very easy to get carried away! Best Judy (Hic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ednria Posted June 8, 2011 #4 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I have just finished tip-toeing thru the Cunard site. Click on "ships", click on "bars and lounges" for the ship you are sailing on, I looked at the QM2, and there are menus, with prices for some of the bars and lounges. Most were surprisingly reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, John. WOW!! Thanks to living in New York City and being used to what things cost here, I almost fell off my chair when I saw that drink prices were so low on Cunard! Or are these prices in British Pound? That would make more sense. But hey, I hope the prices are this low. Having a drink that costs under $12 for the cheap stuff is unheard of in NYC, so I'll feel spoiled on the QM2!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T5LHR Posted June 9, 2011 #7 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I rarely drink, very rarely... But some of those Long Cocktails sound rather tempting... I may have to give a couple a whirl when I eventually set foot on a ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prices are quite reasonable and the published dollar cost only has a 15% service charge added. The measures are not as generous as you will be used to in NYC but they are quite generous enough.

BigMac1953 Posted June 9, 2011 #9 Share Posted June 9, 2011 What are the prices for drink like on the QM2 compared to UK pub prices?Beers and wine are my tipple. I always consider the prices to be similar to UK "City Centre" bar drinks. Not at all outrageous. Stewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToadOfToadHall Posted June 9, 2011 #10 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I've always found the bar prices quite reasonable ( say £3.80 for a pint of lager ). I often see postings on other, more UK based, forums, where people are up in arms about the prices. I think that's because those people have not visited a city centre bar for the last 25 years !!

pb82 Posted June 9, 2011 #11 Share Posted June 9, 2011 The 2010 QM2 September and the 2011 QM2 January sub-albums of pb82's homepage (click on pb82 by the avatar then click on the link) have lots of drink lists, bar lists, and wine lists from those QM2 cruises. Santé! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twroths Posted June 9, 2011 #12 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Living in Chicago I found the onboard prices to be very reasonable. While the pours a fine, you certainly don't get the proverbial "bird bath" martini. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underwatr Posted June 10, 2011 #13 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I've mentioned it in other threads but after getting off the QV in fort Lauderdale we had lunch at the hotel and paid a dollar or two more for a bottle of beer than I had been paying for two weeks onboard.
