Rare ReneeFLL Posted June 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Do you use the Bionic Bar? Edited June 15, 2022 by ReneeFLL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ReneeFLL Posted June 15, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) I have never used it and it think it’s a waste of space. Please bring back the Champagne Bar or move the Bionic Bar somewhere else. Edited June 15, 2022 by ReneeFLL 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stick93 Posted June 15, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Great place to use the liquor card for extra booze to make drinks stronger. I will get a chocolate martini and head over to bionic bar for all the vanilla vodka I can get in a cup and mix it. Extra vodka for my drinks. What a great bar!! Other than that it’s a waste of space. Nobody gets anything good to drink there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverbeenhere Posted June 15, 2022 #10 Share Posted June 15, 2022 It is fun to watch once. After that on to better things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyFan33579 Posted June 15, 2022 #11 Share Posted June 15, 2022 The next decent drink I get from the bionic bar will be the first one. It’s interesting to watch it for the first time, but not a big fan of this bar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baelor Posted June 15, 2022 #12 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I am excited about trying the Bionic Bar on the Symphony, although apparently it messes up a lot, which can be its own form of entertainment! What was the champagne bar? Did it have cheap-ish champagnes like Veuve Cliquot or Moet or was it splurgy like Salon or Krug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure about the champagnes since I usually have chocolate martinis, key lime martinis, and many other different drinks. It’s just a nice relaxing bar without loud music where you can actually talk to people and be able to hear them. The Allure hasn’t been amped yet so it still has it. Hoping they never amp it, but unfortunately it’s also leaving Fort Lauderdale in Oct (I think it’s Oct). It then goes to Galveston. Lucky for them, but sad for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ReneeFLL Posted June 15, 2022 Author #14 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Curacao Cosmo and Lemon Drop martini Chocolate martini and maybe a vodka and tonic. Pineapple Guava Sangria Curacao Cosmo (blue one) and I forget what the other one was. French 75 and Espresso martini Painkiller Edited June 15, 2022 by ReneeFLL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted June 15, 2022 #15 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Waste of space; bring back the classy Champagne Bar. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poocher Posted June 15, 2022 #16 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Didn’t find it particularly interesting to watch & the drink went right in the trash. Gotta be a better use of that space. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthebeach2 Posted June 15, 2022 #17 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Sorry to say it’s a big waste of space. I’ve hardly seen anyone buying a drink there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise a holic Posted June 15, 2022 #18 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I think a waste of space. Makes poor drinks- should consider another Martini bar- like Celebrity has- or find a better use of precious space. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbeyg Posted June 15, 2022 #19 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I was really surprised at the number of people on our recent Ovation cruise that used it. Figured lots of new-to-Royal passengers. We have never seen the draw to this versus a great bartender that makes excellent drinks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted June 15, 2022 #20 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Also agree, waste of space. Novelty that flopped. I prefer real bartenders, many of whom we have a lot of fun interacting with. The robot is not very talkative. 😉 Plus can't use our vouchers there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVLady3 Posted June 15, 2022 #21 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I use it all the time with the refreshment package! Makes yummy non-alcohol drinks!😋 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjmatty Posted June 15, 2022 #22 Share Posted June 15, 2022 While I agree with whoever said it is quiet for hearing conversations, it is way too bright for a bar like atmosphere, and the drinks on the menu all seem to taste the same. It's good kitsch for one visit but I never went back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted June 15, 2022 #24 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Never been on a ship with a Bionic Bar. I suppose one would not feel the need to leave a tip - 🙂 I'll give it a try once I have the opportunity. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
