They get their... Second breakfast?
-
Do they get breakfast on starships? I mean, timekeeping was never quite explained. Sure, there are stardates, but how is "morning" and "evening" defined in a place that's operating outside a system with daylight reference points by default?
Or is it like it was (I guess, I'm not expert on this) from the age of exploration where time on ships was into watches and you get time specifications like "three bells into [x] watch"? A shift system with Alpha to Delta Shifts as mentioned in Lower Decks (both the TNG episode and the series) might lend itself to such a system.
But during many shows, clock times like "sevon o'clock" are given as well, but what's the reference then?
-
ship time would be synced to a broader federation time; though in ST:Ent there was a hint that its considered "polite" to adjust ship time to match planetary standard time when entering orbit.
In any case, there's probably a standard rotation of shifts similar to submarines, essentially running off mission time. Though, I would imagine that "day" shift crews were larger with more non-essential staffing (for example; the science departments. it's probably not common you need a botonist on duty 24/7,)

"breakfast" = taking a "break" from your "fast" aka "not eating". So... technically then, every meal is breakfast! 😋 Seconds, thirds, whatever you got!
-
Ten Forward seems to be open around the clock and you can always create food with the replicators too. And we see the officers work in shifts. So I assume "breakfast" is the meal before your shift starts and "dinner" is after it is over. Other than that, there is probably no "meal time" as such.
We mostly follow the bridge crew around the captain but presumably there is a whole other crew of officers for the "night" shift. (In fact, there is an episode when Troi has the helm for that shift.)

It's established that Picard hates fancy breakfasts.
-
While there may be certain ports of call for ships, I think the Stardate system works off the timezones of Starfleet headquarters in San Francisco.

People REALLY don't like Pippin, for... "reasons".😉

This is what happens when you cut The Scouring of the Shire from the films.

They get their Peregrin Took? Why are you stealing falcons off of Starfleet officers?

Pip. In. Fuck you. Goddamnit.

Oooh, I found a guide!
