Creator's Key Takeaways

The breakfast options on the Regal Princess were great, and it is probably the best breakfast buffet I've had on a cruise.

Dinner is where Regal Princess truly shines.

The food was outstanding. The French onion soup, steak, and lobster were particular highlights in the main dining rooms.

I am not a big fan of the buffet normally but really enjoyed the Mexican options in the Horizon Bro and the Trident Grill food was very tasty as well.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book specialty dining early, especially on shorter cruises or popular itineraries.
Use the Princess app before boarding or head straight to specialty restaurants on embarkation day.
Ask for a shared table in the main dining room if you enjoy company.
Use Ocean Now for food and drink delivery anywhere on board for maximum relaxation.
