Docbizarro Posted July 12, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Some questions about Anthem & the deluxe drink package. 1) is the bionic bar included? 2) are those automatic wine dispensers in vintages included? 3) is anything at la patisserie included?

reallyitsmema Posted July 12, 2019 #3 Share Posted July 12, 2019 All drinks at La Patisserie are included in the deluxe package. They make a great mocha! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpostman Posted July 12, 2019 #4 Share Posted July 12, 2019 On our Anthem cruise, La Patisserie even kept a few of the coffee favorite mixers on hand so you did not have to find a bar to add it... Stuff like Bailey's, Kahlua, Tia Maria and the like. Not sure if they still do. dp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuiteLady Posted July 12, 2019 #5 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) I had the deluxe beverage package on Anthem and yes Bionic Bar is included (I got drinks from there), Vintages is NOT included, and LaPatisserie is included, as I had my specialty coffees there every morning! Of course all the lovely pastries that are staring at you, are not included....:( Edited July 12, 2019 by SuiteLady 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for confirming. Glad to here they are still offering "Value Added" coffees 😉 dp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zooma Posted July 12, 2019 #8 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Wish I had figured it our earlier in our cruise, instead of our last day. And by that time, I really just needed the caffeine from my coffee so sadly declined the extra. 🙁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er345 Posted July 12, 2019 #9 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I have not been on a Quantum class ship yet. (Upcoming Ovation will be my first.) Is Vintages different on Anthem than on the Oasis class ships, that it would not be included in the drink package? Or is it just these special wine dispensers that are not included? And if you you ordered a glass from the bartender that was under the price limit, it is included? Just for future reference as I would like to go on Anthem next.

The servers at Vintages on the Anthem are happy to honor your drink package. As you stated, if the glass of wine you want is $13 or less, it will be covered. If it is more, you are charged the difference + 18% of the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er345 Posted July 12, 2019 #12 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Do all quantum ships have the wine dispensers? I might have been intrigued enough to try them, but I always have the beverage package so I guess not. It makes sense though. People with unlimited drinks being able to serve themselves seems like a bad idea, - or a good way to drink way too much wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also have a full bar and can make you any other drink-package drink, if you happen to be with a bunch of wine drinkers and want to, instead, enjoy something else 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a menu via goggle search and it looks like Starbucks coffee? (There is a logo at the bottom and the drinks listed seem similar). I'm surprised these are included in the drink package.

Well.....On Anthem sometimes you got a Starbucks cup but the coffee was advertised as Seattle's Best. I don't think it's the actual franchise.

honeynut33 Posted July 14, 2019 #21 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Is the hot chocolate at La Patisserie included in the package too? I know somebody said all drinks, but I was told otherwise by somebody else. Beans are cheaper than chocolate. I was really hoping they were induced since I don't do coffee.
