CodyC815 Posted August 29, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Hi all! We’re heading out on the Mariner next month and had a question about the “Bowls for sharing” option on the drink menu in the Bamboo Room. The menu says the bowls are $35 and serve 2-3. If we are a group of 2-3 people who all have the deluxe beverage package - are we able to combine our cards to cover a bowl - or do we only get $13 off and have to pay the remaining $22? I would assume we couldn’t combine - just odd that the menu nor drink package FAQs cover it. Side note - the drink package FAQs say sharing drinks purchased from the drink package is strictly prohibited. Does that mean we could potentially get into trouble for sharing a “bowl for sharing” if we purchased one with the drink package? Worst case I’m assuming we can each pay for an indivual drink and they can just throw it in a giant bowl instead of three individual glasses - just wasn’t sure if they had worked out a policy for this specific case yet.

ONECRUISER Posted August 29, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 29, 2018 As long as you all 3 have the drink package it's not sharing. They mean sharing like one has package and other doesn't... Not sure they can split price, maybe can but might be one person pays for bowl. Unknown by me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug S Posted August 29, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 29, 2018 All you can do is ask. I imagine it may depend on the waiter, but if it were me I'd ring up 3 separate drinks and serve it as one bowl. Keep the customer happy=better tips. Not costing RCI anything that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted August 30, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 30, 2018 No one here knows the answer. Go on your cruise and come back and tell us the answer. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted August 30, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Why would you think your drink package covers a non-drink item??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodyC815 Posted August 30, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Why would you think your drink package covers a non-drink item??? The shareable bowl is an alcoholic beverage meant for 2-3 persons served exclusively in the bamboo room. It’s on the drink menu someone posted on here awhile back.

monctonguy Posted September 6, 2018 #8 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I am curious if anyone with the drink package knows the answer or has an experience with this yet. All 4 of us will have the drink package so be interesting to see what if any option there is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cot427 Posted September 6, 2018 #9 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Also curious, I will stay tuned! This is a classic tiki option. I work at a classic tiki bar and we have a few sharable drinks, often times served in some sort of fancy tiki bowl. They do have a minimum person requirement to order. So when it says, 2-3, we cannot serve it to one and when it says 4-5, we can't serve it to just 2. So I'm thinking the same logic would apply here (as far as amount of alcohol in the drink itself) but I would love to know how they handle it with the drink package.

cot427 Posted January 11, 2019 #10 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I found the menu and it seems that, there are no special shareable drinks. They can make a couple specialty drinks into bowls, so I would say it doesn't make sense to share if everyone has the package. Just each get one yourself. Seems more like an option for people without a package. Here is the menu for anyone interested: https://eatsleepcruise.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/BambooRoom_1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
