cindyscruise Posted August 28, 2005 #1 Share Posted August 28, 2005 When looking at the Princess website under dining options I found this for the CB: Breakfast Lunch Dinner Cost Crooners Bar Casual N/A N/A 5:00PM onward Market Price Patisserie Casual 7:00AM 11PM based on consumption what is served in Crooners? Hadn't heard anything about the Patisserie but I assume pastries, cookies etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastsserie as you can guess is a Pastry shop... cookies pastries and tarts. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmomof7 Posted August 29, 2005 #3 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Where was this? Never saw it on the CB! lol!:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindyscruise Posted August 30, 2005 Author #4 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I don't know. I found this under dining options on the Princess site for the CB. It said for Crooners the cost was market price. But I don't know what they have for dinner? Also for the Patisserie is said based on consumption. I assume you pay for the pastries, cookies etc? or do they have speciality coffee? that you pay for? On the RCI Explorer they had a Patisserie that only charged for the latte or other special coffee not the food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claroquesi Posted August 31, 2005 #5 Share Posted August 31, 2005 For real though? I don`t remember any patissere on the CB. Can someone tell me what it was near? I can`t believe I would have missed that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can`t believe I would have missed that! Me neither. They must have it well hidden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzinchris Posted August 31, 2005 #7 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I've wondered about this, too. The only thing that I remember from my January '05 cruise on CB was coffee and some petit fours that were served mid-afternoon near one of the lounges. Not sure if there was a charge, but there was staff pouring coffee and serving the dainty little French pastries. When I'm on the ship again next January, I'll check this out and report in my review.

ToplessPony Posted August 31, 2005 #8 Share Posted August 31, 2005 This was one of our favorite spots to meet before dinner. It is down on deck 5 and is more of a coffe bar then a pastry bar. The pastry part is a small tray of danish or cookies or something like that that are free and put out on the bar. They have fresh BREWED coffee here as well as other coffee drinks. The fresh brewed is free and very good. I'd stop in every morning for a cup and to sit by the big picture windows and watch the water.

This is what I referred to in my post above. The day that I stopped by for some really good coffee, there was a colorful display of petit fours and miniature tortes. This is what made me think that this might be the Patisserie. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the morning they have sweetrolls and muffins and in the afternoon I noticed cookies. I thought the sign had said lobby bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH and I had wonderful coffee here several times during the cruise - better than anything in the dining room, and we don't touch the stuff in Horizon Court!). As I mentioned above, one afternoon there was the loveliest display of petit fours and miniature tortes, and I wished that I had the camera with me. This is one spot that DH and I will visit again on our next CB cruise. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennifers490 Posted August 31, 2005 #12 Share Posted August 31, 2005 on the sun class ships the lobby bar is called patisserie, on the grand class it is the lobby bar but i saw very little difference if any between them all...it's the best place to get coffee on the ship! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindyscruise Posted August 31, 2005 Author #13 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Thank you for all of your responses. Now I assume that Crooners market price is for caviar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmomof7 Posted September 1, 2005 #14 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Never knew the names were interchangeable. I called it the Lobby Bar but knew that others on the Cruise Critic had called it the coffee bar. Didn't even know it could have been called La Patisserie! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
