I have always been happy with retreat/micheals lounges , if they don’t have what you want they will try to get it (within reason, doubt I could get Johnny Walker Blue) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the bars had better selection. At least Beyond has a bar in the Retreat lounge! Not so on Edge. But I agree, the other bars are better.

Rare Georgia_Peaches Posted June 10 #29 Share Posted June 10 OP the Constellation was our introduction to Celebrity back in 2015. She was in need of a refurb back then but we didn't notice! She is a great ship and I hope you will enjoy your cruise....and that drinks package! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do have it but it’s not the 12 year old you will find in the states , we took macallan as one of our free bottles a couple of times when we were in high end suite . Label says Macallan Quest . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebrity used to have quite a good selection in Michael’s club. Maybe it is still available elsewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The alcohol selection at the bars on board is much better than the Retreat Bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also on the third to last day of our cruise, there were a number of ship's officers at the bar and all stock had been removed. Talked with bartender and found out they were 'rearranging and modifying' the display for the next cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted June 11 #39 Share Posted June 11 7 hours ago, zitsky said: Ok thanks. So can I point at any of those bottles and say “I’ll have that, please?”. Yes, you can do that. But I cannot guarantee you'll get what you ask for. Who knows? All I can say is that I got whatever I ordered, mainly neat, on the rocks, or a cocktail. I only drank wine with meals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect the drink selection to be at least as good in the Retreat Bar as in the Ensemble Lounge. Maybe that’s expecting too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that’s expecting too much. I have always found everything I wanted, drink wise, in the Retreat Lounge. There may be wines that are available at other bars. I know the rare times I have ordered a drink with an alcohol they do not have in the Retreat Lounge they arrange to have it the next time I come in. Has not happened often but did once or twice right after the restart. Then again, I am a simple person with simple taste when it comes to alcohol.
