Yacht Club BREAKFAST Menu

This is the Yacht Club breakfast menu, which seems to be essentially the same in all Yacht Club restaurants.

In the separate threads for Yacht Club LUNCH and  DINNER menus you will note that after the main set of menus, which were given to @Beamafar  and declared complete by her YC MD, there are additional menus from other MSC ships and sailings that are at best variations on the main set.  So I am not giving any warranty that the menu posted here is the only breakfast menu.

@Beamafar  and  I have now done our part.  If you would like to contribute, please feel free to post additional menus (or variations) and 'food porn' pictures.  Just please remember that this thread is for Yacht Club BREAKFAST menus only.  See the separate threads for Yacht Club LUNCH and   DINNER  menus .

Is this the dining room menu or the buffet by the pool?

This may have been asked and buried in a different post somewhere but does anyone know if it is possible to order breakfast items via room service in YC that are not on the official room service menu? Such as those on the menu posted above?

I ask because on NCL (suite) they told us that we could order whatever we wanted for breakfast (within reason and if available, of course) even though not on the menu - just to manually write on the card what we wanted. 

Not sure if that's something MSC will do.

Good question and something that I did not try to do.  Not sure if one could or not.

As a solo YC guest, something unusual in comparison to ordering Room Service on other ships, my Butler served my tray with one cup of coffee--not a pot of coffee--just one filled cop.  Most mornings I went to the YC Restaurant for breakfast.

If you enjoy a seated/served breakfast, you will love your YC breakfast!

Quiet with service (most mornings) as good as at lunch and dinner.  Usually, just one of the two Maitre d's was working, but their excellent, active service was just as good as at dinner.  Once, I ordered both the assorted cheese and cold cut plate:  delicious.  I preferred  the Ranchero Potatoes over the Hash Browns.  When I ordered poached eggs or Eggs Benedict, I was asked how I liked the eggs cooked.  (They were prepared as I requested.)   Coffee cup was kept filled, usually without having to request that.  One morning, I ordered their Stewed Apples and was served enough for 2-3 people:  very good, though.  Their breads that I ate were all very good; I love croissants and those were as good as any I have eaten.

One oddity:  while Grapefruit Juice was listed on the menu as being freshly squeezed, when I requested a half Grapefruit, it was not available.

Only once did I have breakfast at the YC Pool Grill and was pleased with the offerings.  Items, such as the potatoes or bacon that were self serve, cooled quickly in the open air and I was disappointed with the much fewer choices of the bread offerings.  There were three--as I recall:  hard rolls,  a variety of bread slices, or a small selection of danish type pastries.  A much greater selection was available in the YC Restaurant.

I enjoyed Breakfast on MSC Meraviglia!

That's odd. We've just come off Preziosa and I chose Fresh grapefruit 11 days out of fourteen...

Good for you.  I like the fact that the sections of the fruit were served as shown.  Makes it much easier than "digging" the fruit out of the skin.

Ah, after the second day I even had the peel removed.

That's how good the staff were. They witnessed me removing it on day two and obviously informed the chef.

Funnily enough, a few years ago on Seabourn a half grapefruit appeared that had just been sliced in half and the 'pulp' not separated.

Regardless of the ship on which I have sailed, I have never had the pulp not separated.  More of than not, the separations are large enough that I need to use fork and knife to do a bit more "dissecting".

Well done you.

Though that was the one reason that I remembered Seabourn can fall short.

I don't see either of the items I liked best at the non-Yacht Club breakfast: walnut sticky buns (cinnamon rolls), and breakfast pizzas.

Nor congee.  The toppings were very nice.

I think the sticky buns were available.  I recall seeing them on the display as one entered the YC Restaurant for breakfast.  Breakfast pizzas?  No.  Not in the Dining Room nor at the Pool Grille that I recall.

2 hours ago, shipgeeks said: Nor congee.  The toppings were very nice.

I don't recall that either on MSC.  I had congee when I was in China.  In my opinion, it's one of those foods that one has to acquire a "taste for".

Next June will be my first Yacht Club experience. I've stayed in The Haven on NCl and they offer Steak and Eggs. Will I be able to get this on MSC?

Steak is not on the breakfast menu.  However, if you speak to the YC asst m’D he may be able to arrange it for you.

Agree!  The staff does their best to accommodate guests' requests.

I enjoyed reading the menu again.  Thanks for posting it.  Seeing that Stewed Applies remain available reminds me of the morning when I ordered that along with juice and a regular full breakfast.  My Steward brought me a full bowl of the fruit!  Much more than I expected.  I saved it for a breakfast "dessert"; a first for me.  Delicious, but I needed to "waddle" out of the Dining Room that morning!

I searched for 15 minutes the current YC Bar List (+ Wine selection at the YC Restaurant), but I cannot find it. Does anyone have an idea? I plan to cruise in Mediterranean sea on the MSC Seaside. 

And thanks a lot @elbarney for sharing the YC Lunch/Dinner lists. Great job!!

I've spent 30 years eating my way across Disney World. These are the 5 best restaurants on the property — and they aren't in the theme parks.

Posted: July 25, 2024 | Last updated: July 25, 2024

• I've dined at almost every restaurant at Disney World , and some are better than others.
• I love making reservations for The Turf Club at Disney's Saratoga Springs .
• The newest restaurant at Disney Springs, eet by Maneet Chauhan, is one of my new favorites.

I'm an annual passholder who's been visiting Disney World for over 30 years. Having at least one big meal a day to look forward to helps me take a break from the Florida heat and refuel before returning to the parks.

But according to Nerd Wallet , the average sit-down meal at Disney World costs anywhere from $60 to $93 a person, and I'm not interested in wasting that kind of money on a gamble. Luckily, I've had the chance to dine at nearly every restaurant at the parks, resorts, and Disney Springs, so I know which ones are worth it.

Here are five restaurants to consider if you're looking for a new spot to add to your Disney World plans.

I've never seen anyone else talk about Turf Club at Disney’s Saratoga Springs.

One of the least talked about restaurants at Disney World seems to be The Turf Club at Disney's Saratoga Springs.

The restaurant features American cuisine in a setting that overlooks a nearby golf course and a waterway that connects the resort to Disney Springs.

I love the slow-roasted prime rib ($38), which is always cooked to perfection and comes with buttery garlic mashed potatoes .

Hands down, it's one of my family's favorite meals at Disney World .

The best breakfast buffet is at Yacht Club's Ale & Compass — and it's only $25 a person.

One of the best breakfast deals is hiding inside Disney's Yacht Club Resort . At Ale & Compass, you can enjoy the breakfast buffet for $25.

The meal comes with nonalcoholic drinks and a large continental spread with fruit, pastries, cheddar biscuits and gravy, and cinnamon rolls . But the real treat is that it includes a choice of one of the restaurant's entrées.

When I want a sweet breakfast , I love the dark chocolate and cherry waffles, which cost $15 alone if you order them à la carte.

If I'm in the mood for a savory morning meal, the breakfast flatbread (usually $14) is my go-to. It's loaded with bacon, ham, eggs, cheese, and arugula.

One of my new favorite restaurants is eet by Maneet Chauhan at Disney Springs.

Disney Springs has no shortage of restaurants, but one of the newest is eet by Maneet Chauhan. The celebrity chef-owned restaurant highlights a menu of modern, Indian-inspired cuisine.

It's quickly become my new favorite spot to eat in the shopping, dining, and entertainment district.

I love the bread service ($20), which comes with naan, a variety of chutneys, pickled veggies, and pimento-flavored whipped paneer. I think it rivals the famous bread service from Sanaa at Animal Kingdom Lodge.

Amare at Disney’s Swan Reserve is a delightful taste of the Mediterranean.

I love popping into Amare for dinner w hen I stay in Disney's Swan and Dolphin Resort complex near Epcot. The Mediterranean-inspired restaurant is known for its incredible wine list, which features a flight of Greek wines for $23.

I also love the Amare flatbread ($20). It's topped with leeks, potatoes, bacon lardons, roasted black pepper, and Gruyère cheese.

Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue is worth the price for dinner and a show.

Although it's a little pricey, Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue is a big hit in my books.

The all-you-care-to-enjoy meal features fried chicken, ribs, a handful of sides, and strawberry shortcake for dessert. Unlimited beer, wine, and sangria are also included for adults.

Because it's a dinner theater, pricing is based on where you sit inside Pioneer Hall. The most expensive adult seats are $74, and the cheapest are $66. Seats for kids aged 3 to 9 cost between $39 and $44.

But no matter where you sit, you'll be able to see the show, and you'll get the same meal as everyone else.

For the most part this location is alright. The servers are always kind and fantastic but it's always hot or miss with the food. For the most part it's great, standard breakfast food that has made them famous. Sometimes that consistency fails though, and where the servers are great the cooks don't always get it didn't. Today we received a salad with rotten lettuce, they were quick to apologize and make a new salad which was good. For the most part this is a great location so even when they have off days the service brings us back. - Liz

The service was amazing, had a lovely waitress. The food was not up to par, skillet dishes should not be so shallow, paying $15 for half of what it used to be is just insane. Mediocre at best in my opinion. Ambiance was okay, again mediocre at best. Biting in to an over easy egg, and getting a stream of just raw egg whites was absolutely putrid. And let me clarify for you what an over easy egg is "The egg whites should be set. Carefully flip (trying not to break the yolk) and cook the second side for another 30 seconds for best results. They should have a runny egg yolk and set whites." The egg whites should not be runny and raw, and the other waitress who put her two cents in saying "well over easy has raw egg whites" no it does not, you are going to cause food poisoning to someone, absolutely fucking insane that people think THAT is the correct way to respond. If you think people are out there eating raw egg whites in an over easy egg maybe you do not need to be in the food industry.

Yes, the crew of this restaurant is clearly new. But from what I saw they were also clearly doing their best! My son and I went in for a milkshake on graduation weekend (also football weekend!) and the place was hopping. Even though the wait was long, we decided to stay because of the kindness of the staff -- the two who worked the front counter (I think names were Mackenzie and Anthony) were juggling several things but were courteous, friendly and working hard. Our server (whose name I can't remember, sorry!) was also excellent, and multiple other staffers checked in to make sure we'd been helped. My son also gives two thumbs up to the old-fashioned Oreo milkshake. So - if you go to Denny's in these first few weeks, be prepared to wait a bit. But give the kids who work there some grace and help them learn.

I've been here twice. First time they were out of wheat bread and ladies bathroom stall was closed due to no toilet paper. Second time I ordered a salad and they were out of lettuce. So sad, they are fairly new, so I don't understand the issues they are having.

The store is brand spanking new and it's obvious. We arrived and the 20 minute wait to be seated was fine. It was the 30 minute wait for someone to take our order that was not as fine. We also had to wait far too long to get our drinks. And it took them too long to get all of our food out. We ordered 2 apps for our party of 8 and the first came but we were almost done with our meal before the second came. The service was quite confused and everyone was all over the place. If you come at a busy time, expect to wait as it looks as if 90% of the employees here are new to the industry. They're trying but it's not great. However... I can recognize that this is all due to this store being open for only a very short time. This feels like the problems one can expect from a soft opening, and, in all honesty, that's what this feels like. I fully expect that when I come back in a couple of months it will fell like the well-run machine Denny's is. The restaurant itself is quite lovely. O

I placed an online order for salted pancakes and sunny side up eggs. The first time they gave just the cakes with raw sunny side up eggs. Returned to the store they were nice and kind but didn't understand how to make the sunny side up. I showed them running raw whites and they said they would fix it. They returned with the proper salted cakes but gave me two more raw sunny side up. I understand food not looking like a photo but to have two sets of undercooked eggs isn't ok. Also have been trying to call for about an hour and don't believe they answer the phone.

Sunny side ups

My partner and I have come to this location 6 times since they opened. The first 4 times we had PHENOMENAL experiences. The food was fresh, killer, and well priced. Service was friendly, attentive, and (while definitely still in the process of training) putting their best feet forward. The 5th time that we came, we had a good waitress, albeit a little stressed from the breakfast/lunch rush, who took our orders and got us our drinks. About 10 minutes into waiting for our food, she kindly came up to us to let us know that she was being sent on break, but River was going to take care of us. We had no issue with this until we received 0 service or check-ins until almost 30 full minutes later. Our food arrived cold, over cooked, and was missing multiple items. Keep in mind, this was after the rush, and there were less than 5 tables on the floor in total. We tried to look past this, and we had family in town, so we decided to go to this Dennys again. We told our folks that this place was great, and that the food is awesome, hoping that the last experience was a one-off poor experience. Upon check-in, River (who I assume is a manager, based on how he dresses and acts around the rest of the staff) did multiple things that were just plain neglectful or rude, and absolutely oppose good customer service. When we were seated, our waitress (Jessica) did an excellent job welcoming us, taking our orders, and being attentive. GREAT JOB!! While our waitress was taking the order of a table next to us, River directly interrupted her customer to tell her to take another table. He also, once again, missed significant parts of our meals when he brought out the food (he wasn't our waiter). I had a TBone steak (something I have enjoyed in the past here), and my whole plate was cold to the touch. When I said that it all looked cooked well, but it was cold, River pressed his hand to my steak and asked what temp I thought it should be! He took my food back, and got it remade, though it came out mostly cold, and I believe my steak was microwaved to get it out faster. In general throughout my family's experiences over the last couple of visits, it feels like Dennys had a caring, good natured staff that wants to do a good job. The issue seems to be a lack of proper setup; and (if River is indeed a manager) a lack of training in proper management. It feels like he is single-handedly throwing wrenches in smooth operation, and is a primary source to a lot of stress and anxiety for the rest of the staff. Overall, that sense gets passed down to the customers as well. I love this place, and will give it another try, but unless the attitude of management, and the performance of the restaurant as a whole improves, I will stop going after one more attempt.

The food was good, though portions were on the smaller side. The server was very friendly.

I'm super disappointed in this new location. I was excited to try, but it seems like a mess. First, we went in and they said it would be a 30 minute wait. That's fine, yet we couldn't put down our number. They said they encourage you to stay in the store and wait. The problem with that is, there's hardly a waiting area at all. There's no chairs to wait and everyone was just bunched around the door. Then, when we came back 30 minutes later, they said "someone will be with you soon" and that wasn't the case. We waited for another 15 minutes. Finally, we got seated. Once we were seated, NOBODY came to help us. The people next to us came after us and they were helped right away. Couldn't even ask for help because all the employees were running around. Clearly this store isn't organized, as I've heard other people not getting helped after being seated. After waiting for almost 20 minutes and getting no help, we decided to just leave. This location needs to fix the organization, as this was super duper disappointing.

We got here and waited 30 minutes for our order to be taken. Then got our straws thrown at us. We waited about an hour and a half for our food and finally went to the server to ask what was happening. She then proceeded to ask if we were ready to be seated. No. We have already been here. She responded by saying oops we forgot about you. We waited 30 more minutes and finally the food came. We got the food and it was freezing cold. DO NOT COME HERE.

Things To Do

Travel | travel: is getting a pricey cruise upgrade really worth it.

Lavishing in ultimate luxury doesn’t come cheap, of course. The million-dollar question of “to splurge or not to splurge?” can add thousands of dollars to an already pricey purchase. For those who can afford a stately stateroom, however, they are often afforded a boatload of benefits beyond the deluxe digs.

But like pretty much everything in life, you don’t always get what you pay for. While the majority of passenger ships put the biggest spenders in cruise control with such privileges as exclusive dining options, private lounges and reserved theater seats, some have guests looking at their travel budget with a sinking feeling.

Playing the dual role of travel agent and real estate agent, we’ve checked out some prime properties that, under normal conditions, promise an elevated experience when paying a suntanned arm and leg.

Even without getting into upgrades, cruise fares are all over the nautical map due to such factors as the number of nights, itinerary, season, availability, the cruise line and even the ship itself. For sanity’s sake, we’ll do like a bad kayaking shore excursion and only scratch the surface here.

Focusing on the value-based mainstream cruise market (because, let’s face it, those who can afford the best don’t even blink at upgrading), the big four are serving up a buffet of bundles — and we all know how much cruisers love buffets. The key is making sure your eyes are not bigger than your stomach — or in this case, wallet.

Despite the dizzying number of premium packages out there, a standard inclusion with a suite on mega-ships (those defined as having 1,500 or more cabins) is a “fast pass” of sorts when checking in, boarding, debarking, tendering and dining in the main restaurants.

The OG of exclusive suite zones is Norwegian Cruise Line ( ncl.com ). Having pioneered the concept in 2005, giving it a name — The Haven — in 2011, mass-market NCL offers this elite enclave on the majority of its fleet. This includes the newer Prima-class ships: the 3,099-passenger namesake and 3,215-guest Viva, both of which blur the line between the mainstream and premium categories. A private bar, lounge and restaurant, secluded sundeck and infinity pool, and 24-hour butler service, all within an area accessible only by keycard, will also delight future passengers on the 3,571-guest Norwegian Aqua, debuting in April 2025.

How much is a slice of heaven in The Haven? The fleetwide average fare for a seven-day sail in a 300-square-foot balcony room is around $3,000 per person. That’s chump change and a cracker box compared to one of the two 2,100-square-foot, three-bed, three-bath Duplex Suites that will be on Aqua. At press time, these maritime mansions were about $14,000 per person for a weeklong Caribbean cruise out of Florida next summer.

On Royal Caribbean International’s amazing Icon of the Seas , the largest suite of the world’s largest ship is the 1,772-square-foot, three-story Ultimate Family Townhouse that sleeps eight. It’s got a multi-level slide, a wraparound balcony, whirlpool, areas for karaoke and watching movies, and even a patio with ping-pong.

Royal Caribbean ( royalcaribbean.com ) divides its top suites on its newer and bigger ships into three Royal Suite categories — Sea, Sky and Star — and, no surprise, the Ultimate Family Townhouse belongs in the class named for the physically highest of the trio. Services and amenities are still impressive up in the Sky and even at Sea level, but being a Star comes with pre-paid gratuities, specialty dining and a deluxe beverage package.

Carnival Cruise Line ( carnival.com ) is known for being more fun than fancy, but with every renovation and new ship there is an opportunity to add frills with the thrills. “Fun Ships” don’t have private elevators for guests between suite enclaves and main decks — at least not yet — but most of Carnival’s fleet offers VIP treatment when staying in certain zones. Excel-class suites, available on the 5,282-passenger Jubilee, Celebration and Mardi Gras, provide access at Loft 19, a top-deck sanctuary that offers super-comfortable lounge chairs, an exclusive and spacious infinity whirlpool, and rentable cabanas that come with such indulgences as dedicated concierge service, chilled towels, lunch delivery, and glorious shade.

Other perks of an Excel-class suite include sparkling wine and a fruit bowl upon arrival, soft drink package, and use of the Thermal Suites, which are dedicated relaxation centers that offer seafaring splendor in a variety of environments. Also worth a look before you book are the following communities that come with select services and amenities: Cuban-themed Havana on Vista, Horizon, Panorama and the three Excel ships (for guests 12 and over); Italian-accented Terrazza on Firenze and Venezia (same); wellness-focused Cloud 9 Spa on 13 ships; and Family Harbor. The latter stateroom and suite community, on Celebration, Horizon, Jubilee, Mardi Gras, Panorama and Vista, comes with daily breakfast and snacks in an exclusive family-friendly lounge stocked with age-appropriate video and board games, and movies, an evening of late-night babysitting service at Camp Ocean, and other cool stuff.

MSC Cruises ( msccruisesusa.com ), the third-largest cruise line after Royal Caribbean and Carnival, has the MSC Yacht Club, a winning response to the competition’s various exclusive suite enclaves. Strutting around the loftiest lodging on the beautiful 5,877-passenger Seascape and a dozen other ships in the fleet lends a feeling of being on a cruise within a cruise. Elegance begins with a less stressful embarkation process in port and continues onboard with full-service and buffet-style gourmet dining. Yacht Club privileges also include the best drink and internet packages, 24-hour butler and room service, special concierge desk, perks at the spa, afternoon tea, exclusive pools and lounges, and priority over commoners at several useful places. The Yacht Club experience continues on land should the itinerary include Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, where the private and serene Ocean House Beach awaits with ocean views, beachfront cabanas and inclusive amenities.

Moving on up to the premium category, Disney Cruise Line ( disneycruiseline.com ) has an E-ticket suite on its 4,000-passenger flagship, the mouska-riffic Disney Wish . The apex of accommodations has an avant-garde address. Nestled inside the one funnel that’s just for show is the “Moana”-themed Concierge Wish Tower Suite. Spread across 1,966 square feet and two levels connected by a spiral staircase are four bedrooms, four and one-half bathrooms, and enough space to sleep eight. The happiest place at sea is running about $35,000 for a family of five on a three-day Bahamian cruise next summer.

Within the luxury class, Windstar Cruises ( windstarcruises.com ) has three all-suite motorized Star Plus-class ships in a fleet filled out by a trio of Wind-class sailing yachts. Aboard each of the 312-passenger Star Plus vessels are three owners suites ranging in size from 575 to 1,374 square feet. Over the past two years, Windstar has rolled out two additional suites on each Star Plus yacht, and their concept is not only unique, but award winning. Earning bragging rights as “Best Suites at Sea” (small-ship division) at last year’s Cruise Ship Interior Awards were The Broadmoor and Sea Island suites that match the decor of their namesake five-star resorts in Colorado Springs and the Georgia coast, right down to the furniture, crown moldings and wallpaper.

Hitting the heights, which in the cruising world means the ultra-luxury category, Crystal ( crystalcruises.com ) offers up a 1,372-square-foot Crystal Penthouse Suite on the 740-guest Serenity, which went through a near-complete makeover in 2023. with expansive living areas, a private veranda, elaborate finishings, a Romanesque bathroom, dining area, big-enough private kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave, and, speaking from personal experience, one of the two best butler services at sea. (Seabourn has the other). At last check, bunking in the best of the best on an eight-day Mediterranean cruise was going for about $44,000 for two next summer.

The beauty of cruising is you don’t have to go big or go home. Living the suite life may cost thousands or tens of thousands, but even if the low end is too dear, cruise fares, like ships and passengers, come in all shapes and sizes.
