Crown Princess Cruises

Enjoy sweeping views of the world while sailing on Crown Princess. From her nearly 900 balconies to the breathtaking three-story Atrium, you’ll discover a relaxing atmosphere filled with an array of world class entertainment and dining options that will greet you each day when you return from making fascinating discoveries ashore. Sail aboard this brilliant Princess Cruises ship and embark on a truly magnificent adventure.

Food & Dining

At Princess, we know you look forward to freshly prepared, delicious fare on your voyage. That is why the quality of our cuisine is so important to us. At any hour, wherever you go on your Princess ship, our chefs are busy baking, grilling and sauteing the ingredients of your next meal. Bread and pastries are baked fresh three times a day, and sauces are prepared by hand.

Variety is the spice of life, especially when it comes to dining. Whether you feel like a multi-course meal in a formal dining room or a hand-tossed pizza by the pool, Princess obliges your every mood. From elegant specialty restaurants to themed buffets on deck, the variety of venues and dining options is certain to satisfy you no matter the time of day.

Princess offers you the choice of Traditional Dining with fixed time and seating, or Anytime Dining with the flexibility to dine when and with whom you choose.

Traditional Dining: Is the classic cruise experience, allowing you to dine at set times with the same table mates and wait staff each evening.

Anytime Dining: Dine with whom you want, when you choose with flexible Anytime Dining. Eat early with new friends one night, and enjoy a later evening dinner for just the two of you the next.

Both options offer menus featuring creatively-prepared appetizers, entrees and desserts that change each day of your voyage – as well as several healthy Lotus Spa selections.

Traditional Dining

Harkening back to the Golden Era of sea travel, our Traditional Dining option allows you to dine at the same time each day and enjoy the same tablemates and waitstaff throughout your voyage. Choose from either early or late seating.

Chocolate Journeys

There are few foods that inspire as much passion as chocolate, and master chocolatier Norman Love has designed some of the most decadent, hand-crafted treats exclusively for Princess’ Chocolate Journeys program. Trained in France, and named the Inaugural Inductee into the Chocolatier Hall of Fame by Dessert Professional Magazine, Chef Love combined premium quality chocolate with unique flavors and artful designs to mastermind his exclusive creations found in the main dining room and at Horizon Court.
