** Official 2015 New Bar Menu thread....Prices, Drinks, and package info


Recommended Posts

The Ultimate Beverage is no longer $55.00 Just on their website for my upcoming cruise in May and it is now $65.00 per day.

I just looked at this for a 5-day cruise we have coming up. You are correct in that on the opening page of the beverage section, it says $65 per day. But when you add the package to your cart, right before you pay, it shows up as $55 per day, plus a service charge of $9.90 per day, total $64.90 per day.

 

So the price is still $55 per day, before the service charge.

The Premium and Ultimate packages now cover cocktails up to $12.

 

I can't even see what the prices or names are on any of these pictures. Zoom in and too blurry. Does anyone have better pics?

Does anyone happen to know if the "Drink-of-the-Day" is still being offered? Or has that special of the day been done away with?

The drink of the day is still offered, but it is no longer a good deal as it was years ago.

Before I saw the thread about drink prices I had emailed RCI a few days ago and asked " Is it possible to get a drink menu with prices? ie. price of frozen mudslide, toasted almond, bud lite, etc.

Getting concerned the drinks packages are about to go up ... considering buying the Select package while I can still get it for £27.30 a day!! Still shows as £273 when I get to the basket for a 10 night cruise in May .. will I regret it if I leave it any longer?!

This is the drink menu we had on the Legend last month. I was VERY disappointed in the lack of variety.

I really wonder whether they purposely make this so confusing, so that exasperated passengers like me just say, "Heck with it, I'll just get the ultimate package."

 

I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to understand the difference between the premium and the ultimate. On the surface, it's simple: "premium coffee and teas". Then they toss in "unlimited champagne" wording on the ultimate, making it more complicated. So does that mean the premium gets NO champagne? How about something simple like a mimosa in the morning? How about a shot of Bailey's in coffee? How about the martini bar?

 

There are just too many asterisks and stipulations and exceptions. And even if you buy the ultimate package, there are still asterisks and stipulations and exceptions. :-(

 

It's just become one big money suck.

I did notice that next to every price are the words "and up". I guess we are well into the "and up" region now.

Those Boleros menus may be out of date?

Just off Explorer, only one menu across entire ship.

ALL cocktail's are now priced at $10 or more +18% gratuity

 

For instance:

B52, was $6.50, now $10

Black Russian, was $6.50, now $10

Ultimate cosmo, was $7, now $10

 

Beer prices also increased:

American premium, was $5.25, now $6.50

Other beers, were $4.75, now $5.50

 

Menu pushes the beer packages.

 

Definitely out of date as all cocktails are now $10 and wines run $8-22 by the glass $30 and up by the bottle. I just got off Freedom of the Seas today!

I got champagne and kir royale every night in R Bar or Vintages on my PP! The kir royale was $12, but it was included!

Where did you see the champagne exception? Everything I have seen and read (and that's a lot!) says that the alcohol is exactly the same for the premium and the ultimate.

The Moet Champagne deal was a promo on the Ultimate package through Jan 2015.

That doesn't seem right, DH paid on the ROS this past March/April over $6,00 for Coors, the one I looked at showed $5.25, even with gratuity that is lower then what he paid. he bought the package the latter two cruises. $49/day times 14 = $686. he probably averages 6/day especially on sea days sometimes more.
