caddykid12 Posted October 22, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Grandparents love coffee. Rather than buying it. Where are there self serve stations on the BA. Just on the buffet? Or other places too? What's in the rooms. K cups or Bags? Free coffee in restaurants still right? Breakfast lunch and dinner Does casino give free Coffee? Does UBP cover coffee? Just don't want them paying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just don't want them paying Good coffee is in Atrium pay per cup, not included in beverage plans. Dining room coffee is okay. Buffet coffee stinks. And is the only self-serve. Specialty dining coffee - some (all?) have pressed pot coffee (per each restaurant pricing.) Room is "pod" style machine, makes 1 or 2 cups. But I need cream anyway so I have to go get coffee.

Missy59NEP Posted October 23, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I've seen self serve stations at Maltings early morning before the bar opens. Coffee, tea, danish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob brown Posted October 23, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 23, 2017 You can also get free take out coffee at O'Sheehans, just above the atrium, and open 24 hours....and just carry it down to the atrium;) Edit: I left out the free espresso machine in the Studio Lounge, IF you are booked in a Studio cabin, that is...

Rare mking8288 Posted October 23, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 23, 2017 What kind of 'pod' coffee ? We bought Maxwell House 4 cup pre made 'pod' 's Thank you It's a flat pod, single serving - for the Hamilton Beach coffee maker, good for a 6 oz. cup in medium strength ... at best (used 2 of them for a fuller cup, as I like mine closer to being like Expresso) https://boards.cruisecritic.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=376852&d=1455566783 https://boards.cruisecritic.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=376853&d=1455566783 The brand NCL was using when "CLR" - lower right of this picture (Room Steward will provide/bring as much as you like/restock them daily or twice daily) https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170724/22bd096ac3f5aff4d90942203068fb5e.jpg They also setup for self-service coffee at O'Sheehan's - including cups with lids (unless things changed again lately) near a counter area toward the back in the direction of the gallery. We pack our own insulated 12 oz. stainless steel mug with lids, to keep it nice & hot and not spilling liquid. Room Service downsized their coffee thermos ... used to be a bigger pot, now they delivered a smaller pot, good for 2 to 3 small cups at most. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie4 Posted October 23, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 23, 2017 do you think the CLR are ok, or should I order the melita coffee pods from Amazon ? DH likes to wake up to coffee, yet he does not like to be woken by room service :) So we never know what time to put on the card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted October 23, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 23, 2017 CLR was just ok for me, average - institutional grade but I like a Columbia blend & strong. Of course, you can use 2 pods and make a stronger (bigger) cup (don't feel like packing extra/bigger cups) Room service coffee "water" is weak & now they delivered those in a shrinken SS pot, barely enough with 2 cups - as shared in Seadog's "Live" post this week. There are filter kits on Amazon for DIY flat coffee pods - but, apparently, leave a mess for cleaning up & might not be worth the efforts, but cheaper on a per serving basis. https://www.amazon.com/Coffee-Pod-Replacement-Filters-Brewers/dp/B004TSOAO6/ref=pd_sim_79_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=R59XY29M9JT8E8J0QS21 What I might do is to combine a CLR pod with a ready-made 3-in-1 instant coffee for a stronger cup in the morning, like those in the picture ... nothing like the smell of familiar coffee brew to wake up to. A matter of personal preference ?? with the hassle factors. Of course, many rather hit the lobby coffee bar for a boost or Red Bull it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dajbman22 Posted October 23, 2017 #11 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Can i bring my K cups? Technically you could, but there would be no Kuerig machines on board for you to use them in. The coffee makers in the balcony rooms take flat filter packs and the suites use Nespresso machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie4 Posted October 24, 2017 #12 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Can i bring my K cups? There are manual K cup makers. Look up Presto MyJo, and ask for an electric kettle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
