Editorial Summary

The creators provide a comprehensive guide to the dining options available on the Discovery Princess, distinguishing between complimentary fare and premium specialty restaurants. They begin by detailing the three main dining rooms, noting that they offer identical menus and accommodate various dining styles. While they praise the main dining rooms for their extensive vegetarian options and specific highlights like the Galley Dinner, they strongly advise against the included afternoon tea due to poor service and subpar food quality. The guide also covers casual, complimentary options such as the World Fresh Marketplace buffet, GiGi's Pizza, and the International Cafe. For guests seeking premium experiences, the creators review several specialty venues, including the authentic Italian gelato bar, the Italian restaurant Stinis, the French Bistro, and the sushi bar. They highlight the Crown Grill as their top recommendation for value and quality. Additionally, they discuss the food available in the adult-only Sanctuary and the Salty Dog Gastro Pub. The creators conclude by suggesting that guests pre-book premium dining online to ensure availability.

Creator's Key Takeaways

we would always recommend you use this guide to plan ahead and pre-book as many of the premium dining evenings as you can online prior to boarding as they can get booked up very quickly and you don't want to be disappointed

afternoon tea is included in your fair but unfortunately it was a very disappointing experience

the scones were almost inedible being overcooked as dense as a diamond very dry and we could swear there was no sugar in them at all bland tasteless and slightly bitter

if you only go to one speciality restaurant this is the one we would recommend as our Top Choice
