The Symphony is one of my favorite ships because of all the free dining options that are included in your cruise fair.

It's actually very good. I love their breakfast sandwiches.

My dining room is fantastic. The service is fantastic.

The sandwich is really good. The bread makes it. The bread's amazing.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check the app for specific opening times at each dining location, especially on port days.
Visit Johnny Rockets for breakfast as a nice alternative to the Windjammer buffet.
