Schooner Bar Review: Guest Experience Summary
Introduction. Schooner Bar is Royal Caribbean's signature piano bar — nautical decor, live piano music, sing-alongs, and classic cocktails in a timeless setting. Found on nearly every ship in the fleet.
Food & Drinks
Classic cocktails, beer, wine, and spirits. Nothing fancy, but well-made drinks. The focus is on the music and atmosphere, not cutting-edge mixology.
Service
Friendly bartenders who've worked this concept for years. They know the regulars and keep the drinks flowing while the music plays.
Atmosphere / Ambiance
Nautical theming with ship models, maritime artwork, and the signature grand piano. The pianist takes requests, leads sing-alongs, and sets the mood. It's nostalgic, warm, and genuinely special.
Conclusion
Rating: 4.5/5. Schooner Bar is a Royal Caribbean institution. No cruise is complete without an evening of piano music and sing-alongs here.
