I will say this: the coffee onboard is definitely better than that crap they serve at WDW!! The only way I can drink that stuff is to make my own rigged up mocha = nescafe + hot chocolate + cream!!

Hmmm, it's pretty gnarly! When I'm at conferences in hotels for work, I generally can tolerate the coffee pretty well. The WDW stuff is chemical-tasting sludge attempting to mask itself as coffee!! I tell my DH that he is not allowed to claim he's from Seattle because he actually likes that stuff!!! It's not nearly so bad as that on the ship, thankfully! But I generally end-up splitting a punch-card with my mom in one of the cafes
If you happen to be sailing concierge -the machine in there is wonderful. My fave. If not, Cove Cafe. If I don't want to pay-room service, self service. Tolerable. Not a coffee snob and don't get too wound up about it. It's vacation after all!
Heh. No Concierge for this cruise - or, likely any cruise this side of retirement.
I'll try it all, though. I'm pretty good about managing expectations (e.g. I'm not expecting fresh-roasted Black Rifle Coffee that I grind right before brewing in a press pot; when I'm in the mood for that kind of coffee snobbery, I get my fix at home), and, as you said: it's vacation!
It depends on what you normally drink. To me, it tastes like hot water, but at home, I make such dark, thick coffee that my husband says he needs a knife and fork to drink it. I end up buying espresso drinks in Cove Cafe. I do drinks lots of the free mint tea, though.Is the free coffee from the stations decent?

Of course you can take it out.Thanks everyone! Seems like I'll be sending hubby on a lot of errands to the cafes! Do they allow take-out there or do you have to drink it there?
