If there are a lot of Pinnacles on the Anthem, they often limit the number of nights they can go to Coastal Kitchen. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiliburn Posted July 14, 2020 #3 Share Posted July 14, 2020 For dinner only and if there’s room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare twangster Posted July 14, 2020 #4 Share Posted July 14, 2020 As a JS guest on Anthem in January this year I have very good success using CK, basically every night CK on Oasis class as a JS guest is very dependent on the numbers week to week. My last JS experience yielded 2/7 nights on Oasis. JS access to CK on Quantum class including Anthem is consistently much better than Oasis class. As an extra bonus on Anthem you don't have to bang on the glass doors to get attention as the host/hostess stand on Quantum class is in the public hallway unlike Oasis class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiliburn Posted July 14, 2020 #5 Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) On Ovation there wasn’t many in coastal kitchen,probably only half full. Boarding day it’s busy but go straight there and book ,It’s a lovely venue. Edited July 14, 2020 by Chiliburn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixCruiser Posted July 14, 2020 #6 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Who knows what the policy will be when we get back to cruising. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise a holic Posted July 14, 2020 #7 Share Posted July 14, 2020 For dinner only, but you must have a reservation. You might not get the time you want however. If early, typically no problem. Who knows what post covid will look like or what rules might be in place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have, too- and it's the first destination for us when we board to quickly make reservations for the week. I'm sure one thing that helps us is that we now eat really early- so getting reservations just when they open is really easy. Even if it's super crowded with P's- few eat so early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Anthem, we have had no issues getting reservations for dinner when we have sailed in a JS. Just go make your reservations for the week when you board and you should be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YMMV and as mentioned, who knows how COVID-19 will change things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that JS have issues booking dinner in Coastal Kitchen on Oasis class at times, have never seen anyone say they had an issue on Anthem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milwaukee Eight Posted July 14, 2020 #13 Share Posted July 14, 2020 In a GS, have had issues getting seated at reservation time. Once as long as 45 minutes. Harmony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Anthem I've been able to book the Coastal Kitchen in the cruise planner. None of the other ships with the CK have that ability. I was last on the Anthem last September and it was that way then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be hard to find, it's all the way at the bottom. Or maybe they were already full. It's been available on all my Anthem cruises but i booked it as soon as booking was available. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been available on all my Anthem cruises but i booked it as soon as booking was available. Not sure what the issue was but just wasn't there when we tried multiple times on the three sailings that we had access to CK on Anthem. Funny thing is that the other person who said they can do it all the time was also a Pinnacle like you. There was a thread about it and others couldn't book it on Anthem either and this one poster could. Hopefully, we will have Anthem back in Bayonne someday so we can try to book CK online again. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on the Anthem in November in a junior suite and could no longer book on line which I have done on past cruises. I boarded and went straight to coastal to reserve a set time for the entire week.

Cruise a holic Posted July 17, 2020 #24 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) we didn’t like it on quantum the location was next to the buffet Since we are in suites, we like the location attached to the suite lounge We enjoy drinks in the lounge then dinner we never were on the Anthem so perhaps a better location Edited July 17, 2020 by Cruise a holic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julesbeara Posted July 17, 2020 #25 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Yes, we visited it many times for dinner while on the Anthem, and cruising in a Junior Suite. We had the Diamond Lounge Concierge make our reservations. If your not C&A Diamond or above, just go by the desk outside the Coastal Kitchen and make your own reservations by showing your stateroom card.
