where is Starbucks/Symphony of the Seas

[hollon]

If I'm looking at the decks, is it on deck 5 on the promanade deck at the end?

 

Thanks

It’s in the center of the Promenade towards the front of the ship. Like a big kiosk.

Symphony and Oasis use Seattle Best coffee...same company, not as over-roasted like *$.  but then, if you're after all the add-ons to mask the coffee flavor, then *$ is what you need.  You can use your*$  phone app and as I recall gift cards (but don't quote me).  I will get a cup from there if they have the Sumatra, Verona or the old Komodo Dragon.  But mostly they have the flavor of the day, Blonde and Pikes Place.

I have had a starbucks twice , one cream , no sugar ... threw it out both times , lol .

Strong burnt harsh taste . I dont add all those sweet additives to kill the taste .

And being Canadian , i prefer the dishwater they serve up at Tim Hortons.

We brew our own espresso(deLonghi automatic) and use Lavazza beans, I know coffee...I have no problem with the specialty coffee at Cafe Promenade.  It's a tad less palatable than our espresso but it's OK, definitely better than any other location on the ship.  But when it's working we always get our morning lattes in the Diamond Lounge.  I can't say I ever had anything from the Starbucks counter on board.

You can use this link to see exactly where Symphony of the Seas is in real time. https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/SYMPHONY-OF-THE-SEAS-IMO-9744001-MMSI-311000660 As for Starbucks, just look at the nearest corner and there’s probably one there 🙂

Sites using AIS may not be as accurate as sites such as cruissmapper which use sat location.

Same here , i have a Saeco machine and it makes excellent expresso , with Kimbo beans.

It has the fancy cappucino attachment but i have never used it . 

Also have a Kuerig and like the timothy columbian coffee .

Ditto, I'm sipping my afternoon latte with collagen right now🥴 Sorry to highjack.  In a pinch I can even drink the regular Carafe coffee in the Promenade.

@hollon BTW, be sure and don't miss this spot on Symphony: the glass floor!

Oh good to know. I like all the ones that you listed 🙂  I don't mask my coffee, I like to taste the coffee 🙂  I thought about buying the coffee card so I can get a cappachino at promanade

O yeah, their beans are great, using their Espresso right now, but have used their Super Crema too awesome

 

De'Longhi ECAM35075SI Dinamica with LatteCrema Fully Automatic Espresso Machine, Silver  My model is discontinued (3 yrs old) but it's dependable, can be pricey though
