Dining on Cunard is a defining part of the experience, combining fine dining, traditional British cuisine and global flavours across a wide range of venues. Guests can choose from elegant main restaurants, relaxed cafés, buffet-style dining and premium specialty venues offering flexibility from light bites to formal multi-course meals. At the heart of the experience are Cunard’s four main dining restaurants. Britannia, Britannia Club, Princess Grill and Queens Grill with each linked to your stateroom category. These venues offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner with reserved seating, featuring imaginative menus, exceptional wines and signature White Star Service.

Casual dining options include buffet restaurants such as the Lido or Kings Court, alongside cafés, wellness-focused eateries and traditional venues like the Golden Lion pub. Guests can enjoy everything from international dishes and live-cooking stations to classic British favourites and lighter, health-conscious meals throughout the day.

For a more elevated culinary experience, specialty dining is available at an additional cost. Options vary by ship but include steakhouse concepts, Asian and Indian-inspired restaurants, and destination-led dining experiences. These venues focus on high-quality ingredients, immersive flavours, and refined presentation.
