CruiserByHeart Posted August 1, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) While reading through the board and posts about the beverage packages I've failed to find details about the Al Bacio non-alcoholic coffee beverages... specifically which coffees are included in the premium plan but not the classic plan? Do you know? What's your experience? ☕ Edited August 1, 2017 by CruiserByHeart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovecruzin Posted August 1, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 1, 2017 In my experience all non alcoholic coffees are covered under the Prem bev pkg. Latte, Mocha, Americano, double shots, plain coffee..whatever you want.. ☕️ Unless it is an affogato with gelato! 😒 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow9612 Posted August 1, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 1, 2017 In my experience, the affogato (which, by the way, is amazing and addictive!) is included in the classic package. Latte, cappuccino, Americano are also included in classic (even with double shots). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridgeMates Posted August 1, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I'm always up very early. Where do I get a good cup of coffee before 7 or 8:00. Is there coffee and hot water available 24 hours in the buffet area? I can make my coffee with Starbucks Via if need be. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes coffee is available 24hrs in Oceanview (buffet). Al Bacio (deck 5) opens early (6:30am some days if not all) as well for more coffee options.... So you shouldn't need your Starbucks Via ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2theship Posted August 1, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Since Celebrity switched to the Lavazza brand coffee in the dining rooms and the buffet, the coffee in all of those areas is quite drinkable. As to the original question, any coffee or tea I've wanted at Cafe al Bacio has been included in the Classic package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to the original question, any coffee or tea I've wanted at Cafe al Bacio has been included in the Classic package. Agree, the Lavazza standard coffee is good. For that reason, I we never buy the expensive coffee (we never buy the drink packages). Further, as I have aged, I find that I drink far less coffee. When I worked, I would drink 5-6 mugs a day and frankly it was too much. I started having eye twitches. I cut back because of that and after retirement, I am down to about two mugs a day for breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Barracuda Posted August 1, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 1, 2017 We've often found Al Bacio open 1/2 hour or more earlier than posted time. Agree coffee in the Oceanview is more than acceptable, but doesn't offer as big a caffeine kick as an Americano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDXgranny Posted August 1, 2017 #9 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I was pleasantly surprised how good room service coffee was in morning. Also, Al Bacio lattes were great! And on our Classic pkg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvcrusn Posted August 2, 2017 #10 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I'm surprised no one suggested room service! I always order coffee and croissants in the morning and love sitting on the balcony early in the AM in my bathrobe watching the ocean and enjoying the quiet start to another wonderful day.

Zoedokey Posted August 2, 2017 #11 Share Posted August 2, 2017 The Aspen coffee is worth the upgrade, or the upcharge on classic. An awesome treat. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you shouldn't need your Starbucks Via ;) I recommend bringing Starbucks Via. I get my early morning cup of coffee in the buffet, but X's coffee is not great. I've developed a "formula" of adding/mixing some Via in with the buffet coffee in either a large travel coffee mug or one of their to-go cups. It's a much better (and stronger) cup of coffee.

nngardener Posted August 2, 2017 #13 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Unless it's a port day when Cafe al Bacio opens up at 6:30 am, it always opens at 7 am. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
