Wolfhunt Posted June 29, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 29, 2017 We are going to be sailing on Pride in about a month and have started the hunt for recent Fun Times to get an idea of what to expect. While I haven't found recent ones, one I found from last summer showed the Alchemy Bar opening around 2-2:30pm each day. We love Alchemy and the last two ships we were on, Alchemy didn't open until around 5pm. Does anyone know if Alchemy still opens around 2pm on Pride? If so, I might have to seriously rethink about getting Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadeeu Posted June 29, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 29, 2017 It's open 2 PM - 12 AM most days. Opens at 4 on HMC day Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCCruiser1013 Posted June 29, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Not sure how recent you're looking for, but I posted FunTimes in my New Year's Pride review (link in my signature). The Alchemy hours should be pretty much the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheels87 Posted June 29, 2017 #4 Share Posted June 29, 2017 It seems to me that they open at 2pm on sea days and 5pm on port days. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swodog94 Posted June 29, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Concur. I went back and looked at my Fun Times from Oct 2016 and they are open 2pm-Midnight on Sea Days and 4pm-Midnight on Port Days (except on Embarkation Day, when they open at 2pm).

Wolfhunt Posted June 29, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Thanks. Alchemy is the one bar that can destroy my drink budget. With drinks being $10.50 + tip at Alchemy on our last cruise, Cheers looks pretty good. With it opening much earlier than our last couple cruises, definitely gonna have to rethink my drink budget.

I hear ya! We enjoy stopping at Alchemy on the way to dinner for a drink or two...or three. I'm on Pride the week before you are...I'll let them know you're coming! :'):'):'):'):') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always start with that and then am typically trying whatever concoction they make up on the fly. I think half of the conversations at Alchemy go something like "What was that drink you just made? I'll take one too" ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achriste26 Posted July 4, 2017 #9 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I was just on the Pride a few weeks ago. The Alchemy Bar opens every day at 2pm, except the Half Moon Cay day when it opens at 4pm. Also, embarkation day, it opens at 2:30pm. For Freeport and Grand Turk, it opens at 2pm. We loved the Alchemy Bar, especially the Martini Tasting. A definite if you haven't done that yet! It was fabulous. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still deciding on if we want Cheers this trip but will definitely do the tasting if we don't get Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren't quite up for that this time around, maybe next year! I would have loved to try more of the offerings at the Alchemy Bar. My favorite was Forty is the New Twenty. I got a couple of those on the way to dinner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
