Princess Cruises

Dining at Sea

Dining with Princess Cruises is a highlight of every voyage, offering flexibility, quality and genuine variety. Whether you prefer a relaxed bite or a refined dinner, the experience is designed to suit Australian tastes and cruising styles. With the popular Dine My Way program, you choose when, where and with whom you dine each day.

Included dining options are generous and diverse, featuring elegant main dining rooms, the always-busy International Café (open 24 hours), casual pizzerias, buffet restaurants and tempting pastry shops. Menus are refreshed regularly and cater for dietary requirements with ease.

For special occasions, premium restaurants add an extra layer of indulgence. Savour perfectly cooked steak and seafood at Crown Grill, classic Italian at Sabatini’s, or enjoy the immersive Chef’s Table experience. Every meal on board reflects why the Princess Cruises dining reputation is so highly regarded.

Entertainment That Elevates Every Night

From the moment the sun sets, entertainment across the Princess cruise fleet comes alive. Expect polished theatre productions, live bands, comedy acts and intimate performances across multiple venues. Shows are professionally produced and appeal to a wide range of ages and interests.

Outdoor evenings are just as memorable with Movies Under the Stars, where blockbusters and classics are screened poolside with cosy blankets and popcorn. The Piazza hosts live music, interactive performances and pop-up entertainment throughout the day and night.

Discovery at Sea programs bring enrichment into the mix, with guest speakers, cultural events, hands-on demonstrations and themed celebrations inspired by destinations visited.
