Princess cruise dining FAQ

princess cruise discovery menu

Is food on Princess Cruises included?

Sit-down meals in the main dining room, which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, are always included on a Princess cruise, and the menu varies somewhat daily. Also included is a buffet, either called World Fresh Marketplace or Horizon Court, depending on the ship, as well as fast casual and grab-and-go spots on board that serve pizza, tacos, burgers, pastries and ice cream.

Specialty restaurants including Crown Grill, Princess's steak and seafood house, and Sabatini's, the signature Italian restaurant, require a surcharge that's priced at a flat rate per adult or child; some menu items also require an additional surcharge no matter the age of the guest.

Related: The ultimate guide to Princess Cruises ships and itineraries

Are drinks included on Princess cruise ships?

Select beverages are always included: iced tea, hot tea, brewed coffee, hot chocolate, milk, fruit juice, lemonade and tap water. Everything else, including soft drinks, wine, beer, cocktails, spirits and specialty coffees, must either be purchased a la carte or through one of the cruise line's beverage packages .

Do I need reservations?

Reservations are encouraged for the main dining room and the specialty restaurants, and it's best to make them as early as possible ; walk-in parties will be accommodated on a space-available basis. Guests can make reservations via the Princess MedallionClass app or at guest services once you're on board. If you wish to eat at the same time every night, you can do so by reserving your tables in advance.

Platinum and Elite Captain's Circle members have early access to reservations. Passengers booked in a Full Suite or Reserve Collection Mini-Suite don't need to make dining reservations as they will always be accommodated; they also have access to a dedicated space in the main dining room with expedited seating and an expanded menu.

Does Princess Cruises have an evening dress code?

"Smart casual" attire will be appropriate for the main dining room, buffet and fast-casual restaurants. You might want to pack something dressier for the specialty restaurants or one of the more upscale dining experiences like Chef's Table, 360 or a winemaker dinner.

On sailings that are five nights or longer, there will be one or more formal nights, which do require adhering to a dress code in the dining venues . Cocktail dresses, evening gowns or dressy pantsuits are appropriate for women, while dark suits, tuxedos or dinner jackets and slacks are required for men , along with dressy footwear. If you don't want to dress up or forgot appropriate attire, you're welcome to dine at the buffet or any of the other casual dining options on board during formal night.

Is there assigned seating in the main dining room?

There is currently no assigned seating at any dining venues on board Princess ships; however, that is changing for cruises departing on or after September 14. For those sailings, guests can choose between traditional seating (with assigned dining times, tables, tablemates and waiters in the main dining room) or flexible seating. Within flexible seating, passengers can either make reservations to dine at a specific time on any given night or walk in when they're hungry to access the first available table.

Until September, Princess will not offer assigned seating, and guests can choose to make reservations or not for the main dining room. If you are a solo diner or part of a couple or small group, your host might ask if you would like to sit with another party of a similar size in the main dining room; the choice is up to you.

What if I have dietary restrictions?

You can use the Cruise Personalizer to indicate your dietary preferences, including requests for low-sodium, low-fat, low-sugar and vegetarian diets. Kosher meals and baby food are available with advanced written requests. If you have allergies or medical needs related to food, you must inform Princess in writing — check the line's website for more details. Princess Cruises also recently introduced a series of vegan menus for dinner in the main dining room, including starters, soups, salads, pastas and main dishes.

Where can I get snacks on board?

princess cruise discovery menu

You'll find lots of spots to grab a quick bite, dessert or coffee, including Coffee & Cones, Patisserie, Swirls Ice Cream Bar, The Pastry Shop, International Cafe and Gelateria — options vary depending on the ship. Food at these venues is included, but there is a charge for specialty coffees and teas unless you have a beverage package.

Is room service included on Princess Cruises?

Guests can use the designated button on their cabin's phone to order room service 24 hours a day; each order incurs a $5 delivery fee, which is waived for those with Princess Plus or Princess Premier status.

You can also use the OceanNow feature in the Princess Medallion Class app to order food to be delivered to your cabin or anywhere else on the ship, like the pool deck. This feature is included with Princess Plus and Princess Premium; otherwise, there is a one-time access fee of $14.99 per person per voyage and a $5 delivery fee per order. Food and beverage surcharges may apply for some items ordered via room service.

Discovery Princess Cruise Ship Food

“Love, exciting and new, come aboard, we’re expecting you!” If these iconic lyrics from the “Love Boat” theme song evoke a sense of adventure and culinary delight, then you’re in for a treat.

For seasoned cruisers, the shipboard routine is familiar: evenings in the main dining rooms marked by ever-changing menus that cater to the majority of guests, bypassing the buffet’s embrace.

On the Discovery Princess , the buffet sprawls across various sections, including the World Fresh Market, The Bakery, and the Horizon Café. 

The buffet unfurls its culinary prowess from dawn till dusk, offering service from about 6 AM to 11 PM, then graciously whittles it down to a selection of sandwiches for the midnight snackers.

But for those with an appetite for indulgence beyond the norm, there’s a world of specialty dining options.

For those who yearn for an elevated dining affair, there’s a world of specialty options that beckon with their exceptional offerings. 

Set sail on a culinary odyssey that spans from the extraordinary 360 experience, a dining sensation worth its premium, to the elegance of the Crown Grill, the charm of the French Bistro, the Italian authenticity of Sabatini’s, and the simple pleasure of gelato and the pizzeria, where the dining experience is anything but take-away.

On the magnificent Discovery Princess, you can indulge in a symphony of flavors that extend beyond the ordinary.  At the pinnacle of this culinary expedition lies the 360 Experience, an extraordinary dining sensation that lives up to its premium price tag.

The Crown Grill, a testament to timeless elegance, offers an exceptional steakhouse experience that transcends the ordinary.

For a taste of Paris, there’s the French Bistro, where classic dishes and delicate crème brûlée transport you to the heart of France. Sabatini’s Italian celebrates the rich traditions of Italian cuisine, promising an authentic journey through its flavors. 

So, as you set sail on the Discovery Princess, you’ll find that the ship’s culinary landscape is a world of its own with a new place for you to love, Princess style.

It’s a voyage through flavors and culinary artistry with Chef Rudi at the helm, a celebration of the joy of shared meals with fellow passengers.

From the early morning breakfast to the midnight sandwich, from the familiar main dining rooms to the enchanting specialty dining options, this cruise is not just a journey; it’s a culinary odyssey that promises unforgettable dining experiences, delightful flavors, and the pure pleasure of good food and good company. Bon appétit, and welcome aboard!

Amidst the captivating autumn landscapes of Vancouver, BC, I embarked on an extraordinary voyage aboard the Discovery Princess.

This coastal culinary adventure would lead me from Vancouver, BC, Canada to Los Angeles, making stops in Victoria, BC, Canada, and San Francisco along the way.

While we attended press trips along the way, the cruise was paid for by me, but the specialty dining experiences were hosted by the Princess Cruise Line.

The breakfast symphony continues as you peruse the bakery’s offerings – soft and crusty rolls, croissants, Danish pastries, English muffins, fruit and bran muffins, and six-grain bread.

And what’s breakfast without your choice of beverage? Tea, American coffee, hot chocolate, and milk (or skim milk) make the perfect morning companions.

For those with a hearty appetite and a taste for tradition, the English tradition awaits you with a breakfast ensemble that includes two fried eggs, baked beans, sausage, bacon, grilled tomato, and mushrooms served with white or whole wheat toast.

And if you’re in the mood for a Hawaiian surprise, a papaya filled with a fresh fruit medley awaits, served with sour cream honey dressing.

As the sun began its descent, casting a warm glow over the horizon, we embarked on the epicurean adventure known as the 360 Experience.

We gathered outside the Salty Dog with fashionable drinks, blue with alcohol, cream colored without with the 360-logo drawn in a chickpea foam. Formal portraits of each couple ensured memories would last past the evening as well as featuring prominently through our night.

Led by the maître d and celebrated by the crew as we entered this dining in the round, the excitement was palpable as we gathered in this enigmatic room, knowing that only 20 fortunate souls per seating, only two seatings each night, would have the privilege of joining this culinary voyage. 

As the evening unfolded, the immersive qualities of the 360 Experience left us awestruck. It wasn’t just the culinary creations that dazzled our senses; it was the entire environment that came to life.

The walls that enclosed us weren’t just walls; they were an integral part of the show. As we savored each course, our attention was drawn not only to the tasteful dishes but also to the vibrant narratives that unfolded around us.

What truly added to the magic were the tables themselves, becoming dynamic canvases in this extraordinary story. At first, our gaze was drawn to the walls, where vivid colors and tales painted a fascinating narrative. But then, as if by some enchantment, the tables too became part of the spectacle.

We watched lemons seemingly roll across the tabletops, and powerful bulls stampede with a dynamic force. Enchanting bees danced through the air and bustling carts crossed our path, each element adding to the enchanting storyline.

It was a feast not just for our palates but for our imagination, a delightful twist that turned an already exceptional evening into an unforgettable journey that engaged all of our senses.

And now, let’s talk about the pièce de résistance, the real star of the show – the menu. You see, each element of this tantalizing journey was woven into a seamless narrative by the velvety voice of our storyteller, the illustrious Brooke Shields.

With her guidance, we traversed through Mediterranean flavors and culinary traditions, all through a multi-sensory experience that left us spellbound.

greek mezze

We began our culinary journey in Greece with Greek Mezze, mini handmade pita rolls that were the embodiment of tradition accompanied by the cooling embrace of Tzatziki yogurt sauce, where cucumber and mint danced in harmony.

On the plate, Greek Kalamata and Chalkidiki olives, marinated in crushed garlic, aromatic herbs, and citrus zest, were a revelation of taste. As we savored the harmony of flavors, the Greek extra virgin olive oil took us on a journey to the sun-soaked Greek islands.

Our next stop, Italy, greeted us with the famous Mozzarella di Bufala, a true Italian delicacy. Paired with heirloom tomatoes, basil leaves, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar reduction, and basil oil, it was a symphony of simplicity and pure flavors. The culinary magic continued with long, thin spaghetti enveloped in an oven-roasted lemon sauce, zest, and Italian parsley.

Spain, with its rich culinary traditions, beckoned us with the finest in Spanish cured meats, Jamón Ibérico de Bellota, and Serrano, together with Pan con Tomate.

The crisp toast, crowned with juicy tomatoes, was the perfect prelude to the grand showcase – the Grilled Filet of Beef, adorned with a fried eggplant, roasted baby carrots, all dressed in Demi-glace and truffle butter. But the surprise was the harmonious partnership with grilled shrimp.

The vegetarian offering was nothing short of remarkable. Fried cauliflower on a bed of Jicama cream, green asparagus, edible flower petals, and a roasted leek, cannellini bean, and chickpea salad.

The plate was a visual masterpiece with roasted rainbow carrots and a trio of mushrooms, all brought together by a roasted eggplant sauce, black truffle, and truffle oil.

Throughout the evening, Brooke Shields masterfully narrated each course, adding a layer of depth to our culinary exploration

One of the highlights was the captivating tale of a couple who harvest wine from the depths of the sea, a place where it matures more gracefully and swiftly than it does on land. It was an enchanting revelation that added another layer of mystique to our already extraordinary evening.

In the end, this magical gastronomic journey was etched into our memories. It was a symphony of flavors, an ode to the Mediterranean, and an unforgettable 360-degree celebration of the senses.

The dinner menu for Day 2 says “Welcome” so I don’t know if these menus are in order.  Which days are the formal nights?

If someone is currently on the Discovery Princess, would appreciate pictures of the current menus.  Thanks!

Bumping this to the top....

First, Happy New Year to all!!!

Looking for feedback from recent Discovery cruisers on if the menus have recently changed.  There has been much talk about menu updates in Dec/Jan, that include removal of some (or all?) of the "Princess Favorites" and the Fettuccini Alfredo.

Any recent updates would be appreciated.  Pics of the actual menus would be awesome!

I don't think Discovery has the new menus yet.

Princess Cruises Dining Room Menus (with food photos)

Princess Cruises Menus with Photos

Sharing is caring!

Are you going on a Princess Cruise? If so, you know that one of the best parts of cruising is the cruise food.

We’ve recently disembarked from a great cruise on the Regal Princess , and I thought I’d share the main dining room menus (main dishes, appetizers and desserts) with you. While the order of the nightly menus may be different, it’s likely that you’ll see these menus and food choices on your upcoming Princess Cruise.

I’ve included photos of the dishes we ordered as well, just to whet your appetite.

If you’re cruising with Princess, here is a Princess Cruises packing list that you can use:  Princess Cruises Packing List 2022

Princess Main Dining Room – Things to Know

Dine my way.

Cruising in 2022 has changed, and this includes the main dining room experience on Princess Cruises . While in the past Princess had “traditional dining” and “Anytime Dining”, this has been replaced with “Dine My Way”.

You can now reserve your dining times in advance on the Medallion Class app as you get ready for your cruise. Please note, if you’re in Club Class , you don’t need to make a reservation.

In our experience, you could also just show up at the main dining room (in our case Concerto) and be seated without an advanced reservation as well, although there could be a wait time.

Princess Favorites

In addition to nightly menu options, there are Princess Favorites that are always available. We did see some changes from past Princess Favorites. One classic that remains is the famous Fettuccine Alfredo.

Order as Much as You Want

If you are interested in more than one appetizer, or want to try 2 main dishes, go for it! In our experience, the waiters were very accommodating and would even offer to add a lobster tail to our steak dinner one night when we were undecided between 2 delicious options.

Princess Dinner Menus 2024

by Prof. Cruise · May 9, 2024

A bunch of menus with a Princess cruise ship in the foreground and text that reads: Princess Dinner Menus 2024

Introduction

Are you booked on a Princess cruise or considering one in 2024? Are you looking for an idea of what your dinners will be like? Here are the newest dinner menus for Princess cruises up to 10 days. Keep in mind that these menus haven’t been rolled out to every ship yet and that some menu items do vary depending on the specific ship and itinerary. Also, the menus won’t always be presented in this exact order. But these should give you a pretty good idea of what to expect. Happy cruising! And eating!

These menus are served in the main dining rooms and all items are included in your cruise fare unless otherwise noted.

Princess dinner menu 2024 1

Today’s Cruising Pro Tip:

Never purchase cruise/travel insurance through Princess. You’ll pay more and get less than if you purchase it on your own. Use a site like  TravelInsurance.com * to compare rates and plans and get exactly what you want for the least amount of money. Simply enter your travel dates, total travel cost, and a few basic pieces of information about yourself and see a list of quotes to compare. Savings can be significant and mean more to spend onboard, at port, or on another cruise!

And with that…

Class Dismissed.

Don’t forget to PIN these menus so you can refer back to them later!

Introducing Discovery Princess: A Luxurious Cruise Experience

T he concept of a traditional cruise often conjures images of bustling buffets, family-themed activities, and non-stop entertainment. However, this isn’t the stereotype of every oceanic voyage. As someone who has experienced the allure of cruising more than ten times, I’ve discovered that not all vessels promise the same kind of holiday. The Discovery Princess stands out as a paragon of elegance and relaxation at sea from the Princess Cruises fleet, differentiating itself from the conventional cruise experience.

This new ship invites travelers to indulge in luxury, offering an itinerary rich with sumptuous food, refined entertainment, and unparalleled service. I recently sailed on the Pacific Wine Country Tour, embarking from Los Angeles and visiting a constellation of coastal gems, including San Diego, San Francisco, Astoria, Victoria, and Vancouver. Each stop presented a taste of local culture and the finest wines from Napa and Sonoma Valleys.

Whether you seek an adults-only retreat at The Sanctuary, a celebration of the senses at a 360 dining experience, or the simple pleasure of a beautifully crafted sushi roll, the Discovery Princess delivers. It’s a haven away from the high-octane thrills typically associated with cruises, aiming instead to please a sophisticated palate and a preference for tranquility.

Essential Features of the Discovery Princess

Aboard Discovery Princess, variety is no tall tale. With dining options ranging from the World Fresh Marketplace to specialty restaurants like Sabatini’s Italian Trattoria and The Catch by Rudi, every meal is an event. The entertainment too is nothing short of captivating, featuring Broadway-style performances and intimate comedy shows. Furthermore, the MedallionClass experience enhances convenience, with a wearable device that simplifies everything from payments to room entry.

The cruise’s grand design is just as impressive. The larger cabins, efficient embarkation and disembarkation, and the more intimate ship size ensure a comfortable voyage. The Enclave at Lotus Spa, with its therapeutic thermal suite, offers another level of relaxation.

Experience a Refined Adventure

My Pacific Wine Country Tour with Princess Cruises not only showcased the allure of the Discovery Princess but introduced us to verdant vineyards and bustling cities, where every excursion was a seamless extension of the ship’s sophistication. Excursions include city tours, wine tasting, and high tea, seamlessly organised and incredibly enriching. As a testament to their commitment, every tour is held to the punctual standards of Princess Cruises, guaranteeing your timely return to the ship each day.

The Discovery Princess cruise is an exemplary vacation choice for those in pursuit of elegance, serenity, and luxury. It redefines cruising by offering services and experiences that cater to a more refined taste. From the moment you step aboard, you’re whisked into a world of exquisite dining, Broadway-caliber shows, and rejuvenating spa treatments, all wrapped in a package of unparalleled service and attention to detail. It’s clear that Princess Cruises has crafted an extraordinary experience with the Discovery Princess, where every journey is guaranteed to be exclusive, memorable, and above all else, personalized to deliver the utmost in cruise sophistication.

Q: What activities are there on the Discovery Princess?

A: Besides enjoying world-class dining and spa services, passengers can attend Broadway-style shows, comedy acts, game shows, dance competitions, fitness classes, and more.

Q: Is the Discovery Princess suitable for families?

A: While the ship caters to an older demographic with refined tastes, it also provides diverse entertainment options, making it suitable for solo travelers, couples, friends, and families alike.

Q: Can dietary restrictions be accommodated on board?

A: Princess Cruises prides itself on catering to various dietary needs, with alternative selections available upon request.

Q: Do excursions always return in time for the ship’s departure?

A: Yes, all Princess Cruises excursions are organized to ensure that guests return to the ship in a timely manner.

Q: How does the MedallionClass experience enhance the cruise?

A: The MedallionClass experience offers a seamless journey with a wearable device that streamlines services such as payments, entry, order deliveries, and more.
