dacsmom Posted January 28, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) It is not just BBQ, it is a BBQ style lunch. I am sure I am missing some items, but I remember hot dogs, hamburgers, jerk chicken, ribs, corn on the cob, rice, various salads, and desserts. The suite guests also get seafood skewers and steak Edited January 28, 2015 by dacsmom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parrotfeathers Posted January 28, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2015 The lunch is okay. The ambience is nice. One day I'm going to stay for lunch on the ship though. The shrimp skewers are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel1973 Posted January 28, 2015 #4 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Last time I was on Labadee it was very hot out. There was a server standing by the buffet with a paper plate chasing the flies off the food. Not my kind of dining!!:eek::eek::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danoconnl Posted January 28, 2015 #5 Share Posted January 28, 2015 We spent the day at Labadee and went back to the ship a little early for lunch(around 1/1:30). The buffet didn't look that great and the line was really, really long. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted January 28, 2015 #6 Share Posted January 28, 2015 We spent the day at Labadee and went back to the ship a little early for lunch(around 1/1:30). The buffet didn't look that great and the line was really, really long. Dan I'm going to watch for that this May. The two times I was there, people were in full sheep mode. The buffet had two sides to it and they were all coming from the same direction, one big line, the other side no line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted January 29, 2015 #8 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) There is more than 1 buffet station on Labadee.... we had chicken, burgers, dogs, ribs, and all the sides....potato salad,macaroni salad, cole slaw, fruit salad, plain fruit, corn.....I can't remember the rest, but there was a lot! And, of course, the ship is up and running, if you'd rather go and eat in AC!!!! Edited January 29, 2015 by cb at sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The suite guests also get seafood skewers and steak I think a better term would be "cook-out" style lunch, but other than that your description is excellent. Some people from some parts of this country think only ribs, chicken, pulled pork , etc.. when you say BBQ. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjoellnir Posted January 30, 2015 #10 Share Posted January 30, 2015 We got a gs and will try to get a cabana at BB. But I have a huge issue with flies on the food. is it to far to go back to the ship and eat there and then retutn to BB? Or is it possible to get clean food without flies?

Ocean Boy Posted February 1, 2015 #11 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I'm going to watch for that this May. The two times I was there, people were in full sheep mode. The buffet had two sides to it and they were all coming from the same direction, one big line, the other side no line. Once when we were at Labadee the cutoff time for lunch arrived and they would not let people who were already in line get in. I never heard tempers flare like what I saw that day. I was quite an eye opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaribbeanBound Posted February 2, 2015 #12 Share Posted February 2, 2015 To answer your original question, last week we were served Lunch which included juices, water, tea, breads, grilled chicken, pork chops, beef, hamburgers, hotdogs, ribs, slaw, green salad, potato salad, corn on the cob, light desert bites, and a few other items. Here's our full detailed view complete with a map of Labadee... http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2159600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have a huge issue with flies on the food. is it to far to go back to the ship and eat there and then retutn to BB? Or is it possible to get clean food without flies? WOW how frustrating. We have been to Labadee 5 times and must have dodged the flies at the buffet. Hoping they stay away this summer too. Safe travels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barante Posted February 3, 2015 #14 Share Posted February 3, 2015 All the food you are offered mostly likely was prepared on the ship and carted to the feeding stations. We eat on shore if the lines are manageable, otherwise we return to the ship to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect not but hope that the MDR has quality fish for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect not but hope that the MDR has quality fish for dinner. Really doubt it. The buffet is prepared on board the ship and brought to the serving area, and the last 5 times we were there was the same (buffet open to all). The only time we got our seafood was on skewers at barefoot beach (suite beach). Good luck. Safe journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiselover0929 Posted March 2, 2015 #19 Share Posted March 2, 2015 If you decide to go back to the ship for lunch. Are you able to get back off and go back to the beach? Or is it once you get back on you can't get back off? Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaribbeanBound Posted March 3, 2015 #20 Share Posted March 3, 2015 You can go back and forth all you want. Very easy. It's a fun island and the food is reasonably good. You'll really have no reason to go back to the ship until you're done with your beach day. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted March 7, 2015 #21 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I was at Labadee today. The food was not good and the lines to get to the not so good food were ridiculous with both Independence and Grandeur in port. And, yes, you can come and go from the ship as much as you want. The Windjammer was closed for lunch today or I would have gone back to the ship to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaribbeanBound Posted March 7, 2015 #22 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Lines of course depend on which lunch pavilion you choose to eat at and the time. We ate freshly prepared food about 11:30-11:45 (soon after they opened) at the Columbus Beach Pavilion (furthest from the pier). There was no line. It wasn't gourmet, but it was certainly fine for beach BBQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
