SP2023 Posted December 12, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Hello. We are going on a cruise on the Costa Smeralda, and we have been asked to embark at 14:00. Should we eat lunch before we embark, or can we have lunch on the ship? I have been unable to find the opening hours for the MDR or the buffet for lunch. Thank you.

Rare At7Seas Posted December 12, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 12, 2023 On embarkation days the buffets are usually open all the afternoon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria63 Posted December 12, 2023 #3 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Currently on Toscana. The lunch in MDR is until 13.30 and in the buffet on port days/embarkation day until 16.00. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Luffe Posted December 13, 2023 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2023 The usual route for Costa Toscana/Smeralda is a west Mediterranean roundtrip where passengers are embarking/disembarking on almost all ports. So there is no traditional embarkation day for all passengers. After the buffet closes at 16.00 there is a coffee, tea and dessert buffet starting at 16.30 and ending at 17.30. This summer on Toscana the buffet closed ie they removed the lunch food, cleaned it for 20 minutes then setup the snack food offering but the actual restaurant was open whole time so some passengers just took the last minute food from the lunch buffet and just waited for the dessert for 30 minutes while the waiters were trying to get the empty plates, tables cleaned from the restaurant. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
