The burgers just aren't good anymore - bland and overcooked. And the fries - worse than Wendy's. It's a shame. Not at all my experience in 7 Carnival cruises since the restart. I had at least one Guy's on each of the cruises. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvercrikhix Posted August 21, 2022 Author #27 Share Posted August 21, 2022 We’ll hope for the best for the next cruise. At this point, for US, it’s an important one. A new haircut is fabulous, snip here, snip there….but it’s started to feel like a hacked up bowl cut. Hell I don’t even like mushrooms 🤢 The onions were/are fabulous tho. Agree on the pig patty…overcooked hard bacon puck. Yuck. We did notice the fries change in Nov 2021 and didn’t care for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quattrohead Posted August 21, 2022 #28 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Really you all go on a cruise to eat burgers ??? From what I have just seen on Freedom, they might as well close the dining rooms down and turn them into a massive guys burger cafeteria. Actually split it and have wendys/burger king/KFC and be done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nybumpkin Posted August 21, 2022 #29 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Just for the record, I went to Guy's not once, but twice on this cruise. A lack of bacon and mushrooms wasn't going to stop me.😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahl Posted August 22, 2022 #32 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Guy's offers the Pig Patty burger with a bacon patty. I had one on Carnival Legend and it was very good. Can't recall all the toppings available, but pickles, mustard and Guy's mayonnaise were good additions to the burger. Lettuce and onions were there, too, which I didn't select. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondello Posted August 22, 2022 #33 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) I liked the chili from Guy’s, had a little on a burger. My beef with Guy’s is when they overcook them and you find that crunch is a thick, black crust. Next time I might get a couple deli dogs and add chili from Guy’s.

And these days I think the deli's fries are better than Guy's... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually split it and have wendys/burger king/KFC and be done. I mean, it might seem silly for you, but some people really like those burgers. TBH, my first cruise was on the Carnival Glory in 2018, and really enjoyed getting a nice burger and fries for lunch at the pool. A nice vacation activity, if you will. It was probably one of the things I looked forward to after the restart. Was on the Magic in June this year, and the fries were the crinkle cut deli fries, and the burgers were, decent, but not as good. I can't lie and say it wasn't a little disappointing. With that said though, there are obvious supply issues, so I'm not going to swear off Carnival because of it. All this really to say, some people do look forward to Guy's, there's no reason to judge someone for what they enjoy.

Island Dog Posted August 22, 2022 #40 Share Posted August 22, 2022 I'm fine with the pig patty bacon. Don't understand the mushroom elimination. Doesn't seem like a big ticket item. I will miss the fresh cut fries tho. I'm thinking it's a staffing issue rather than a supply line issue. Cutting and frying fresh potatoes would seem cheaper to me than buying processed fries but who knows? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We cruise again in October - they had better be back on that toppings bar.......but I'm not hopeful. As someone else here said, it's death by a thousand cuts.

Colorado Beach Bum Posted August 22, 2022 #42 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Did they maybe swap out the mushrooms for chili because of that thunderstruck burger thing? I remember having mushrooms post restart a few times and then last month they were gone. Again, could be supply issues vs cutbacks too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could eat one every day! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 1025cruise Posted August 23, 2022 #47 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Apparently mushrooms have been removed since they were throwing most of them out. It seems there aren't enough mushroom lovers eating them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of times on my past cruise I went to get fries from the deli to go with my Guys burger. That's a nice combo indeed. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have fond memories of Carnival's older late night snacks buffet that served hot dogs with chili, so when they added that to the Deli's menu I was elated. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
