mattyboy Posted March 25 #1 Share Posted March 25 Can someone please advise on what is available in the Observation Lounge for breakfast on the Joy? Thanks yo all in advnce for your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elcuchio24 Posted March 25 #2 Share Posted March 25 Its a nice, but limited buffet. Lots of pastries, fruit, yogurt, a few other options. Fine for a light breakfast but not the full set up of the main Buffet area. Great, uncrowded bar in the morning hours also... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JGmf Posted March 25 #3 Share Posted March 25 @elcuchio24 Can you let us know if your answer is based on a sailing this month, post dry-dock? There are rumors on this board regarding the elimination of selected (or all) food and snacks in the OL on the Joy. I'm also wondering what the most recent experience has been. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmbhardy Posted March 25 #4 Share Posted March 25 We were on the Joy during the transatlantic after the refurb last month. There was no breakfast in the Observation Lounge. I spoke with an officer who told me it was being discontinued fleet wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the last time we were on Joy was about 6 months ago. I wasn't aware of any changes after dry dock, and unfortunate if they removed this!

missinver Posted March 25 #6 Share Posted March 25 We are just off the Joy. I'm not sure what the breakfast options were as we never ate there at that time. But there are lots of options in the afternoon - vol au vents, filled rolls, pastries, cold meets, cheese, scones. It always was very popular.

If you happened to keep on of the dailies, it would be listed as a breakfast option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People hear things from officers all the time, it seems. Some are correct, and some most certainly aren't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missinver Posted March 26 #12 Share Posted March 26 Was able to track down these dailies from another group.Hopefully you find them helpful for finding breakfast dining options NCL - Joy free-style-daily Day 3.pdf NCL Joy free-style-daily Day 6.pdf 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess it’s time to eat a little crow. The posted dailies clearly show that the OL serves breakfast. I was in the OL every morning to go to Starbucks and every morning the display counters were empty. There were some other things closed on the transatlantic, so that’s why I asked an officer, that I know quite well, if this was a permanent decision, he told me it was, fleet wide. I guess there’s something to be said for corroboration. My apologies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment was actually hopeful, selfish denial. If the rumors of "fleet wide" elimination of American Diner and Observation Lounge breakfast is true, that eliminates 2/3 of my breakfast options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruising575 Posted March 27 #17 Share Posted March 27 I was on the Joy a few weeks ago. They had breakfast available in the Observation Lounge (smaller selection of things like fruit and pastries) and the American Diner, which included some warm options. The OL still had wonderful snacks every afternoon. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
