Food and beverages

Depending on the type of ship and the route, the menus can range from luxurious à la carte dinners to informal buffets. Cruise ships often offer extensive menus that take dietary preferences and restrictions into account, such as vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or halal. Passengers can also make special requests, for example for dietary meals or children’s menus.

In many cases, a wide range of drinks is offered, from soft drinks and juices to extensive wine and cocktail selections. Onboard cruise ships, themed evenings are often organized, where guests can enjoy a meal that matches a specific country or holiday, such as an Italian night or a deck barbecue.
