js Posted October 23, 2015 #26 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Specialty coffee on Indy is at Cafe Promenade. Thank you! That is included in my Ultimate Beverage Package? If so, I'll go directly there after gym each day :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy traveler69 Posted October 23, 2015 #27 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I prefer Seattle's Best over Starbucks. Starbucks seems too bitter and gritty to me, while SB is much smoother while keeping a good strength to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rala Posted October 23, 2015 #28 Share Posted October 23, 2015 On our last 2 or 3 cruises the coffee in the WJ seemed to be somewhat better than a few years ago when I likened it to "sludge"....or maybe I am just getting used to it?:eek::) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayblue Posted October 24, 2015 #30 Share Posted October 24, 2015 A person's taste in coffee is subjective. I actually like Seattle's Best and tolerate Starbucks (as long as there is no line). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted October 24, 2015 #33 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Has Royal changed there coffee yet or is it still terrible It is still bad as far as I am concerned, after our August Oasis cruise. We actually broke down and paid for a cup of starbucks coffee to get us going. DH would go down every morning and get them. Sea Ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langley Cruisers Posted October 25, 2015 #37 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I prefer Seattle's Best over Starbucks. Starbucks seems too bitter and gritty to me, while SB is much smoother while keeping a good strength to it. I actually like Seattle's Best and tolerate Starbucks (as long as there is no line). A lot of people don't know that Starbucks Corporation is Seattle's Best parent company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayblue Posted October 25, 2015 #38 Share Posted October 25, 2015 A lot of people don't know that Starbucks Corporation is Seattle's Best parent company. I was quite disappointed when I confirmed it, but pleased that nothing changed when Starbucks bought the brand. They also supply McDonald's with their coffee. I am not used to walking more than a few feet for mine in the morning. I hope my fellow cruisers will forgive a tattered robe, bunny slippers, and hair standing on end when I pick it up...maybe I'd better do room service.

floridafunlady Posted October 26, 2015 #42 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Royal cup is brand used by hotels and restaurants. They have different grades of coffee. You will also find it in hotel rooms in those awful filter paks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted October 26, 2015 #44 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I was going to get a single cup coffee maker and bring it with me and brew my coffee in the cabin. That is likely to be confiscated and returned at the end of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgold128 Posted October 26, 2015 #47 Share Posted October 26, 2015 That is likely to be confiscated and returned at the end of the cruise. Why would they take it? Coffee is free on the ship. I'll use it then stow it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgold128 Posted October 26, 2015 #48 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) Why for goodness sake????:rolleyes: Because it simply is impossible to get a good cup of coffee. I need my morning coffee. Edited October 26, 2015 by pgold128 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
