Interesting 2 of 3 answers were wrong.

 

They do have coffee card buy 6 at regular prices (including 15% tip) and #7 was free. This was on Miracle two weeks ago.

 

I assumed - yeah...I know :rolleyes: - that the OP was referring to an unlimited card. Similar to the soda card that for one fee you get specialty coffees all week. They did have one of those years ago - but now just offer the card you referred to. ;)

That's what I thought OP was referring to also. I do wish they an unlimited coffee card.

Carnival does not have anything similar to the Princess coffee card.

 

The buffet coffee machines do use ground coffee, not the syrup that Princess uses. DH had a LOOOONG discussion with one of the buffet guys late night.

 

What Carnival does have that Princess doesn't is Hot Chocolate Machines.:)

No...not "new" - but the only reason I know about it was the sign I saw on the counter at the coffee shop. ;)

 

Hmmm.....I guess I should pay better attention. I'm going to blame it on my brain not working from lack of coffee when I go there. :D I'm not able to read until after the first cup.

I really wonder why they don't have a coffee card like the soda. Cruising is about relaxing and to me having a good cup of coffee is as relaxing as it gets, so they're practically married already. I'd pay good money to have good coffee anytime I wanted it.

I have never noticed this. Is it good on cappuccinos and lattes or just plain coffee? I'm not sure I want to bother to remember to carry a punch card around though...

We just got off Breeze...they have a card where you buy 6, get one free.

 

 

Sent from my Ipad

 

I know I'm late to this forum, but as a fellow Canadian, I'm guessing that you find there is a difference in strength in most U.S. coffee. How would you rate the strength of the coffee from the Breeze's cafe's? How would it compare to Starbucks bold?

I get the punch card on every one of our cruises with Carnival. It works out really well for me on 7 day cruises since my free coffee is disembarkation morning while waiting to get off the ship.

 

At home, I have a nespresso machine and make myself lattes several times a day. While cruising, I keep my coffee to 1 per morning. The card is good for any coffee beverage purchase at the coffee shop or the atrium bar. Their coffee is good, better than the buffet drip coffee. way better than Starbucks burnt tasting coffee in my opinion as well. It does the job for me on cruises. I usually get a non fat latte each morning but on my 4 day cruise at Thanksgiving, I got mochas and caramel mochas.

The coffee shop also offers baileys and the such alcohols to put in your coffee beverages as well.

 

ETA: coffee shop opens at 7-730 am. :( not early enough in my opinion.

Just off Carnival Freedom on Thursday and we had to ask about the coffee punch card or we would not have received it. We had it on our last cruise on Triumph as well.

The Coffee Shop near the casino on Deck 5 was open by 6:30 am on our trip and the specialty coffee was definitely worth it and a nice treat in the mornings.
