Rare Jack E Dawson Posted July 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Will be doing a TA on he QM2 in Britannia Club. Does the new kettle come with a selection of coffees and teas or should we bring our own supply on board? Is there a charge for the afternoon tea in the Queens Room?

pepperrn Posted July 9, 2016 #2 Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) ... Is there a charge for the afternoon tea in the Queens Room?No, there is no charge for afternoon tea is the Queens Room. (there is a charge for the "Champagne Afternoon Tea" but I have no idea (and even less interest) about the charge, sorry) Make sure you arrive early, afternoon tea on a Cunard ship is a popular event! (There are a few additional points regarding afternoon tea here: http://boards.cruisecritic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2260970 post number 14... ) Best wishes :) Edited July 9, 2016 by pepperrn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray66 Posted July 9, 2016 #5 Share Posted July 9, 2016 For those who have already been what brand of coffee is in the Britannia cabins? I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that only the Grills get coffee. Britannia cabins only get tea. (I stand to be corrected if I'm wrong).

I am hoping those of us in Britannia at least get instant coffee :eek: Edited July 10, 2016 by Lanky Lad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennbank Posted July 10, 2016 #8 Share Posted July 10, 2016 (edited) I am hoping those of us in Britannia at least get instant coffee :eek: I think Nescafé Instant Coffee And Biscuits, But they have gone :eek: There was also some UHT milk in those pots. Not using the kettle, The steward did not restock it as it went into the wardrobe. Edited July 10, 2016 by Pennbank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCC retired Posted July 10, 2016 #9 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Come on Cunard . Why be so frugal with coffee makers only in Grills cabins? In even the least expensive hotels have in room coffee makers . [emoji35] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Hattie Posted July 10, 2016 #10 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Maybe in America but not usually in the UK or Europe. I wouldn't think there is room for a kettle and a coffee maker in Britannia cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary999 Posted July 10, 2016 #11 Share Posted July 10, 2016 My Britannia stateroom had Café HAG in it, but then I had boarded in Germany. I would rather a cocktail machine than tea or coffee making facilities! I shall see what is on board on Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbearcat Posted July 10, 2016 #12 Share Posted July 10, 2016 (edited) I have a question about deck 7 and the new Catharina lounge...from videos and pictures it seems that the walkway thru the port side has been semi blocked with screens and dense seat areas ...So everyone walking to to spa must weave thru groups of people sitting together just to get to the gym/spa areas or for that matter walk inside when the weather closes the outside decks? I think a walkway should have been retained. Edited July 10, 2016 by sfbearcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Keurig machine isn't any larger than a kettle. Since the TV is no longer on top of the fridge there's room there for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it can be used just to hear water ? I wouldn't waste my time making instant coffee from a kettle when brewed coffee is available @ Kings Court or room service.

I think we were discussing that Britannia staterooms only have a kettle and instant coffee, and one reason was that there wasn't room for a pod coffeemaker along with a kettle. I was challenging that point. I wouldn't drink instant coffee either. It took me long enough to get used to the taste of brewed coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
