DeeDee316 Posted July 8, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Does the Refreshment Package (not the deluxe alcohol one) include drinks from the place near Cafe Promenade that "serves Stabucks?" I've seen mixed advice on this. It says it does not for "licensed Stabucks," which I dont believe Adventure has. I'm debating getting the refreshment package for my niece b.c she is obsessed with Starbucks (but lives in the south where they are all so far away). She was so excited when I told her she can get her fancy Starbucks drink on the cruise (I'm Dunkin all the way lol). It seems silly, but we lost my 8yo niece last year (her younger sister), so I'm trying to make this vacation beyond special for her. Also why I have asked 58467474 questions regarding our cruise. I really appreciate any any input! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foodluvr Posted July 8, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Licensed Starbucks are on Oasis and Quantum ships only and do not accept any packages. They will take Starbucks gift cards though. Cafe Promenade is in the package but will not have the exact same drinks as a Starbucks and may not use Starbucks coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattpro Posted July 8, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Starbucks coffee is available on the Adventure in front of Sorrento's pizza on the Promenade - deck 5. Also, there is a Ben and Jerry's there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted July 8, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Licenced Starbucks that are the stand alone stores are only found on Oasis class ships. Coffee from all cafés on all other classes of ships is included in the refreshment package no matter what signs e you see or what beans they use to make the coffee.

I saw someone report that there was a licensed Starbucks on Mariner, but I've not seen that confirmed yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeDee316 Posted July 8, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Thank you everyone! She drinks some kind of frappacino concoction... I dont drink coffee, so I really don't know what it all is. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted July 8, 2018 #8 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I saw someone report that there was a licensed Starbucks on Mariner, but I've not seen that confirmed yet.Thanks Bob. I wonder if it was just the regular Cafe with the big Starbucks logo. Sent from my STH100-1 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorben-Hendrik Posted July 8, 2018 #10 Share Posted July 8, 2018 They do not use Starbucks beans in ther non-licensed locations anymore and selection is VERY limited compared to a real Starbucks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OfTheSeasCruiser Posted July 8, 2018 #13 Share Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) Thanks! Did you notice if people were able to use their Starbucks gift cards there? You're welcome. I haven't been onboard Mariner since the refurb. The deck plans show a Starbucks on deck 4, and I confirmed via pictures in the Facebook groups I belong to. I would assume it functions like Oasis Class. Edited July 8, 2018 by OfTheSeasCruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suesnake2002 Posted July 8, 2018 #14 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Specialty coffees on royal promenade on adventure are included in packages. Just asked someone who is on her now Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milford_cruiser Posted July 8, 2018 #15 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Thank you everyone! She drinks some kind of frappacino concoction... I dont drink coffee, so I really don't know what it all is. Thanks again! I can guarantee that she'll be ok. We were on Adventure in December '17. EVERY morning DW went to the "serves Starbucks" location right in front of the Cafe Promenade and got a Caramel Frappacino. Every morning. They saw her coming and started mixing it up. (wearing uniforms bearing the Starbucks logo and working in front of the Starbucks logo menu). So even though we've established that this is *NOT* a licensed location and you can't use Starbucks Gift cards or earn "star" points... if it LOOKS like a Frappacino, and TASTES like a Frappacino, and has a Mermaid on the cup then *I* call it a Frappacino.
