Dining

Do not worry, dining is a Cunard specialty and highly regarded as some of the best on the sea.

The main dining room, Britannia, can serve 1,351 passengers at any given time, with open seating for breakfast and lunch. There are plenty of extra dining options to spread out the crowd. The Britannia club offers semi-private dining for guests staying in deluxe balcony rooms, while the Princess Grill and the Queens Grill are for passengers in the luxurious suite level rooms.

A few specialty eateries, like Todd English, La Piazza, and Lotus are available with a reservation and an extra fee.

King’s Court has food all day, with a buffet for breakfast and lunch. They serve an afternoon and late-night snack as well. You can eat there in the evening for dinner when they start to serve from an a la carte menu for a $10 cover charge.

Smaller venues also have food, like the Golden Lion Pub, Sir Samuel, and the Boardwalk Grill, all great for an unscheduled meal during the day.

The Waterford crystal and the Wedgewood china in most of the restaurants are just some of the elements of elegance that speak to the overall quality of a Cunard cruise.
