Gators77 Posted June 10, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Looking for suggestions besides the buffet(Windjammer) on the Harmony for breakfast and lunch that are included as part of the cruise fare. So far we've heard a lot of good things about Park Cafe for lunch, and Johnny Rockets for breakfast. Love to hear about some past passengers thoughts and suggestions.

cb at sea Posted June 10, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 10, 2018 MDR has a lovely breakfast experience, yet it's casual enough for shorts/tees/flipflops. You are served, and there's no searching or waiting for butter or syrup or jelly... All breakfast venues pretty much serve the same foods....after all, there are only so many "breakfast" items!

IceManCan Posted June 10, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 10, 2018 The MDR is great for both and offer a menu as well as a buffet. Not as extensive as windjammer but far less crowded. Sent from my SM-G950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted June 10, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Solarium Cafe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OCSC Mike Posted June 10, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Big fan of Park Cafe for lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelblu Posted June 10, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 10, 2018 From my Oasis & Allure experiences, I recommend MDR for breakfast. Offers both menu and buffet breakfast items. For lunch, hands down is the Tutti Salad bar in the MDR on sea days. Second, Central Park Café. Not impressed with Solarium Café or WJ. Solarium Café when initially introduced was a health option with lots of fruits, including dried fruit and variety of nuts, but lately it's the same stuff as WJ, albeit on a smaller scale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNBR Posted June 10, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I enjoyed all of the above. Johnny Rockets is great for a diner style, made to order breakfast and is not usually busy, either. Solarium Bistro is a go to spot as it's not terribly crowded and the buffet items is fairly similar to the WJ. When we had to get up early and no real time, Park Cafe had some nice grab and go stuff. And the MDR is always a solid option either for their buffet or service, though we did find the service hit or miss and was super slow on our last visit. The ship isn't THAT big, your best bet is to go scope out the different options on your first day and get an idea for yourself what you may prefer.

reallyitsmema Posted June 10, 2018 #8 Share Posted June 10, 2018 What about Mini Bites? Is it open for breakfast with cooked to order omelets and eggs like Wipe Out Café is on the other Oasis class ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reallyitsmema Posted June 10, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Yes. Great, thanks! Wipe Out café has always been our go to breakfast place, so hoped Mini Bites would continue the tradition. The new, improved layout of Mini Bites was a smart move by the cruise line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new, improved layout of Mini Bites was a smart move by the cruise line. They dumped mini-bites on Symphony. I don't think it worked out how they hoped it would.

Gators77 Posted June 10, 2018 Author #12 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Yes. Is mini bites the only location on the ship that does made to order omelettes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted June 11, 2018 #13 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Is mini bites the only location on the ship that does made to order omelettes? No, on Harmony you also have the Main Dining Room and Johnny Rockets. If you are in a Grand Suite or better, or Pinnacle level in C&A, you would also have Coastal Kitchen.

voyager70 Posted June 11, 2018 #14 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Johnny Rockets for breakfast and Park Cafe for lunch is my go-to plan on Oasis class. Solarium Bistro is a great choice as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocean Boy Posted June 11, 2018 #16 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Not impressed with Solarium Café or WJ. Solarium Café when initially introduced was a health option with lots of fruits, including dried fruit and variety of nuts, but lately it's the same stuff as WJ, albeit on a smaller scale I agree that the Solarium Cafe has evolved from what it started out to be. I was a bit disappointed with it on our last cruise on Allure. Many of those healthy options were no longer there. I used to always look forward to breakfast in the solarium when booking an Oasis class ship, nothing really special about it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I miss getting a bowl of dried fruit and nuts and snacking on them while relaxing in the Solarium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TX_Atlantis_Cruiser Posted June 11, 2018 #18 Share Posted June 11, 2018 On Harmony in Jan I ate at Mini Bites for breakfast and lunch quite often. Breakfast for the made to order omelette and lunch had make your own nachos and other Mexican (Taco Bell type) offerings that were good for a quick bite without any lines and with tables with a view of the ocean.
