AZ-Floater Posted March 16, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 16, 2023 We never been on the Edge; sailing in a few weeks. Where are the nightly cocktail hour and breakfast coffee bar? I'm guessing it's in the Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DCPIV Posted March 16, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I don't know where the breakfast is, but the happy hour is not in a specific location. You can order free drinks from a limited happy hour menu between 5-7 PM at most bars (except for the embarkation night and (I believe) the night of the Captain's party).

Arizona Wildcat Posted March 16, 2023 #4 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Since this keeps coming up. There is no event where only Elites are admitted. Just show your Seapass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highway180 Posted March 16, 2023 #5 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Why even worry about it? With most people having beverage packages, the choices are far better than the swill they serve for the "happy Hour". We stopped going years ago, when they had the "event" in a dedicated lounge. What do have for wine? Red or white . Where's it from? the bottle. 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arubamoose Posted March 17, 2023 #11 Share Posted March 17, 2023 We were just off the Edge. We had a drink package but we did run into folks that did not and were Elite. At the Martini bar they were served smaller versions of what is on the Elite menu - cosmo, martini, etc. The breakfast was served in Le Petit Chef - across the deck from Cafe Bacio. We went there a few times to escape the madness of the Oceanview and the slowness of the dining room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hisfirstm8 Posted March 18, 2023 #16 Share Posted March 18, 2023 So what is on the "limited" drink menu for the Happy Hour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It's a continental breakfast, no hot foods of any kind(no eggs, oatmeal, pancakes, etc). Basically it's pastries, fruit, premade smoothies, yogurt, lox platter, espresso based coffee drinks, juices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last cruise the vodka was Titos and there were lots of cordials including a cream liqueur similar to Baileys. Also always 2 or 3 imported beers.

I now always get the Premium package, but I think this is a very nice and generous list of options for those without a drink package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Y Posted March 19, 2023 #22 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Loved the Elite Coffee Lounge on the Apex, which was in Le Grand Bistro from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. daily. This is the Ultimate Platter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you drink mixed drinks, most will tolerate using the cheaper liquor. The beer and wine list is truly awful, but again that's my opinion, and it IS shared by many i cruise with. This generous benefit, as you call it has been paid for by many previous cruises, by many guests. I believe they could do better. Most people who cruise do not frequent these boards Again, just my opinion, not looking to start a debate Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
