kelleyfarms Posted December 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 14, 2022 We have cruised in Haven many times but have never had our Butler deliver meals to our stateroom. My question is will our Butler deliver meals from specialty dining restaurants to our Aft Haven stateroom. We have 4 specialty restaurant vouchers for each of 2 weeks on our Encore cruise and wondered if our Butler would deliver one of them. We don't want to see our dining vouchers go to waste and would love to enjoy in our stateroom. TIA. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelleyfarms Posted December 14, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Thanks gmbhardy. I thought that would be the case but was unsure. I appreciate your quick response. This will definitely make our cruise even that much better! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And serve you as one complete meal or one course at a time. We opt for deliver it all at once and leave it on the counter in the room. Your butler does not go and run for each course, it is just kept in the butler pantry down the hall and you may be waiting a long time between courses if they are running orders for other rooms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Bird!! We would prefer the butler delivering all at once. We wouldn't want him/her to have to make more than one trip. Sometimes just like to have a great meal without having to dress for the occasion. We know that butlers are very busy, especially around meal time. Appreciate you taking time for your response. Very helpful! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
European_CruiseGirl Posted December 14, 2022 #6 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) We have done this multiple times. It truly is nice to get the speciality dinner delivered directly to the suite 🥰 Make sure to order well in advance so the butler has time to plan, arrange and prepare 😊 The butler will be more than glad to do this. Once we felt like just grabbing some food from the Garden Café buffet and eat it in our suite. We ventured out to Garden Café, took what we wanted and carried it to our (non-Haven) suite. Our butler caught us when we were close to our suite and almost had a heart attack and started to tell we wouldn’t need to get food from Garden Café alone. We could have just rang him and let him know what we wanted from the buffet and he’d arrange it to us to our suite 😅 We never used this service though snd continued to sneak still alone to the buffet to get stuff to our suite and felt like we were breaking the law somehow 🤣 Ah what a good memory ❤️ Edited December 14, 2022 by European_CruiseGirl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On our cruise in August, we were told that we would be "breaking a law" if anyone caught us carrying our own food,,, and not having our butler carry it for us. One night, the Haven restaurant manager carried our desserts to our room, which was just outside the door of the restaurant. Another day, a waiter carried our left over sushi up to our room so that no one would see us with plates in our hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
