SewerUrchin43 Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 I just read that you could fill out a form and have breakfast delivered to the room in the morning. We were never told about that before our first cruise last September and there wasn’t any forms in our room that I saw ( though I didn’t know about this until after our cruise so they may have been overlooked). I was just wondering if this is still complimentary or did it go away post COVID like some other items. We will be sailing on the Independence of the Seas in August.

WAAAYTOOO Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 I haven’t seen a breakfast hang tag since the restart. I don’t think they’re a “thing” anymore. AFAIK, you can still order the continental breakfast from room service for $0 but any kind of hot food will cost $$ unless you’re in a suite.

teddy Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 Last cruise we had to ask our cabin steward for a “door hanger” order form. The cruise before that, my wife “appropriated” one from one of the cleaning carts as we walked down the passageway to our cabin For some reason, I feel like you can order via the interactive TV too.

Geezer Of The Seas Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 Peculiar. We've done 3 post Covid trips on 3 ships. Always had the hanging tags in a drawer at the vanity area. Perhaps efficiency (or lack of) on the part of cabin stewards? Last outing on Wonder, enjoyed the convenience of room service breakfast 5 out of 7 days. There were hiccups once or twice with the orders, but................ WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockerDom31 Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 Was on Liberty a few weeks ago and they had some door hanger breakfast room service forms in one of the drawers of the vanity table. They were also on the room steward's carts if they were out and about while you were, you could snag a few. Plenty of people in our hallway were using them. Interestingly enough, our room did not have an interactive television so there was no checking invoices or ordering room service on the TV. Like others said - continental breakfast (bagels, crossiants, coffee, muffins, yogurt etc.) was "free" (but please tip the person who delivers it!) and hot breakfast (omelettes, eggs, hash browns, pancakes, waffles, etc.) has a $7.95 charge for the entire order (and again, please tip the person who delivers it!). We did the continental breakfast on Oasis last year and it ended up being pretty good - the bagels were toasted and still hot, they gave us plenty of cream cheese and butter, the coffee came with cream and sugar on the side. We asked for it at 6AM and we got it at 6AM on the dot. WAAAYTOOO, SemperMom, PPPJJ-GCVAB and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAYNO Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 This continental breakfast is a service we now use regularly. On port days, while we're getting ready for an excursion, a little breakfast delivered to our room is quite convenient and quite nice. tingtang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmef Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 We use the continental breakfast option regularly. We love to have hot coffee, tea, juice, fresh fruit and a muffin or bagel delivered. We are early risers, so usually have it delivered by 6:30. Even if we want to have a later breakfast in one of the dining rooms, we just order our coffee and tea through room service. Last trip, on Ovation, we had to ask our room steward for door hangers, but normally they are in a drawer in your room or with the regular room service menu. We've ordered through the TV a few times as well. A great perk that everyone can use! PPPJJ-GCVAB and SewerUrchin43 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactus527 Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 On Allure this past week, we ordered via the TV. No paper forms in the room. $0 for continental breakfast = awesome! SewerUrchin43 and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amanalo217 Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Used tv on Harmony and Odyssey to order. Door hanger on Serenade. Always got a call from room service before delivery.

BJohnson Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 We were on the Allure in May, and we had the paper forms in our room and on one port morning we ordered the continental breakfast. FYI-the donuts are very good, my kids loved them!! Sounds like its hit or miss on the paper forms. SewerUrchin43 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottD Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Also had a stack of the menu\door hangers in our room on Oasis in January. The left side of this menu is the free options that you can pick and have delivered at your selected time. The right side is the paid options, which comes out to about 10 bucks or so for as much as you want to order....

need2cruz Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 I just got off of Serenade and we used the door hanger. It was in the vanity drawer. We only ordered from the free continental side and then went to the main dining room for a full hot breakfast later. It's nice to have coffee and a muffin on the balcony. They called each time before bringing it. WAAAYTOOO and SewerUrchin43 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They called each time before bringing it. That's what we did too. Room service for a carb (bagel, muffin, or crossiant) and coffee and then we went to Windjammer after we got ready. We essentially used it as an "alarm clock" for port days. emmef and CruiseGus 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the breakfast hang cards on our cruises this year, including one last month. But they are not often sitting out, they were in a bottom drawer. If I do not see them in the future I will ask for them. WAAAYTOOO, SewerUrchin43 and CruiseGus 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol We've cruised a lot, and I still am overwhelmed at what is available that I never knew about. It was just this past year that I first knew of the breakfast via room service. A few cruises back, as we were planning for an early get-up for an excursion, my wife said, let's just order breakfast. What? She has cruised many times without me, and apparently that's what she does. She just assumed I knew. It works very well.
