How long does it take room service to deliver food?

If I just want a Mickey Bar, how long do I have to wait?

kcashner · 11-18-2009, 02:50 PM

They always say 30 minutes, but I've had delivery in 10. If it's just a Mickey bar, expect it in 10-15, no matter what the person on the phone says.

I agree. I ordered 3 big large cookies and it came in 5 minutes! How long it takes usually depends on how much you tip them.

You can also get them for dessert at the restaurants. I don't like the desserts at Triton's so I always get a Mickey bar there. I will say, though, that they were warm,mushy and melting on our last cruise when I ordered them for dessert. Our first cruise it was fresh outta the freezer.

We order room servie almost every day, it was really quick usually 5-10 minutes. We tipped between $2-5 based on what we ordered.

It is a great service

I believe the normal suggestion is just a $1 for those items. Feel free to give more if you want. I gotta remember to get the cookies next time. I always want them but we always have 2nd seating so I'm stuffed by the time we get back to the cabin.

kcashner · 11-18-2009, 06:05 PM

Whether they bring one Mickey bar or bars for the whole family...or cookies for the family, I tip $1. Mickey bars are available from room service or the restaurants. Cookies are available at the dessert buffets on deck 9 as well as from room service. On some of our cruises they have been available at Goofy's Galley.

I tip more if they bring real meal stuff.

KSFrogge · 11-18-2009, 08:51 PM

We ordered them on a regular basis. Man they are good. The kids (and DH

) also got them for dessert after dinner, with a "Mickey" shaped chocolate syrup in a bowl and multi-colored sprinkles!

I tipped $1 for one or two Mickey bars, $2-3 dollars if there were more snacks ordered. We never ordered a "meal" from room service, only snacks. The kids would go to Deck 9 all the time for food.

Delivery time depends on what time you place your order. If ordering room service when a lot of people are getting back onboard in port your wait could be up to 1 hour, but we've had items delivered in under 10 minutes at times.

We keep some one's in the top drawer so they are easily accessible when room service delivers a snack or breakfast.

NHdisneylover · 11-19-2009, 02:56 AM

If we are getting jsut one or two Mickey bars we tip $1. More snacks or Mickey bars for all four of us), or a meal with Mickey bar $2. Meal for more than one person $3-$5 depending on how many and how much stuff.
