BigAl94 Posted July 4, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 4, 2022 They are rubbish, on our last cruise we told them to stop leaving them, eg prawns delivered and sitting for hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaroleSS Posted July 4, 2022 #3 Share Posted July 4, 2022 We have found the canapés to be lacking in recent years. They used to be decent, now......I'm with you.....don't bother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Click Posted July 4, 2022 #4 Share Posted July 4, 2022 We never cared for them. Better to just to to the OVC and get your own, get what appeals to your taste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loracpin2 Posted July 4, 2022 #5 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Based on the topics of so many of the threads lately, it does appear that many things that made Celebrity a "cut above" are not what they used to be. After 4 cancelled cruises, we finally have back to backs booked on the Beyond for 2023 and am starting to get concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted July 4, 2022 #7 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I agree they are pretty bad and usually ask on first day that they don't leave them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserByHeart Posted July 4, 2022 #8 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Agree with all of you 🙃 We usually get our own treats and snacks from the OVC rather than those sorry canapés... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted July 4, 2022 #9 Share Posted July 4, 2022 With the shares at $100 less than they used to be, can you blame them for cutting things? I agree with having the canapes withdrawn. You can get a cheese plate if you prefer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 4 cancelled cruises, we finally have back to backs booked on the Beyond for 2023 and am starting to get concerned. Hi, I have taken three Celebrity cruises during the past year (Celebrity Summit in July 2021, Celebrity Reflection in Feb. 2022, and Celebrity Apex in April 2022) and greatly enjoyed all three cruises. The dining experience and service were excellent on all three ships. I sailed on my first Celebrity cruise in 1991 (on the Horizon) and have taken a variety of Celebrity cruises over the past 31 years. The cruise experience obviously has changed over the years on all of the cruise lines, but these three recent Celebrity cruises were wonderful. I currently have three more Celebrity cruises booked (Celebrity Infinity for Sep. 2022, Celebrity Beyond for Feb. 2023, and Celebrity Ascent for Feb. 2024).

Rare hcat Posted July 4, 2022 #11 Share Posted July 4, 2022 In AQ class, we have had good luck asking for shrimp, sushi, cheese and fruit. We always bring our own crackers..Celeb crackers are often stale and tasteless. Does not hurt to ask.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurab23 Posted July 5, 2022 #14 Share Posted July 5, 2022 We always tell them to not leave them. We are not hungry after lunch and go to dinner around 6 so we are fine without them. Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arizona Wildcat Posted July 5, 2022 #15 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Canapés? Really. We always tell our cabin attendant not to bother. Would rather put together a cheese plate or a bit of sushi along with a Strongbow. I always deliver at the "correct" time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NutsAboutGolf Posted July 5, 2022 #16 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Seems like they're yesterdays buffet leftovers. Random things I remember: - Breadsticks, which are oddly chewy, with a piece of pepperoni/salami wrapped around - Slice of prosciutto folded - Cubed pieces of chocolate cake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare NutsAboutGolf Posted July 5, 2022 #18 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Some questions... 1) Has anyone successfully "waived off" the canapes? The Canapes delivery person I saw a few times wasn't my cabin steward, when they knocked on my door I said I didn't want them and he told me to take it anyway and if I didn't want it to put it outside my door. 2) Has anyone in a non-suite been able to "convert" the canapes to a cheese plate? If yes, who do you ask? I understand you can call room service daily but would be great to "convert" the canapes to a cheese plate and have them deliver it regularly vs calling daily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy peasy. We've done it in both concierge and in Aqua. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bnurick Posted July 5, 2022 #20 Share Posted July 5, 2022 On Summit, suites did not include. We requested cheese plates on specific days and times, and they were very good. This was better than what we received on the Edge in March where it was a lot of weird things we do not prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've also asked to opt out of the daily deliveries as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always food around the ship if you want something . Just a waste and I would ask them not to deliver in future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
