What can you eat on a Princess Cruise—and what’s actually included in your cruise fare? In this complete Princess Cruises Dining Guide for 2026, we’re breaking down EVERYTHING from free/included food and main dining rooms to casual dining, specialty restaurants, Chef’s Table, 360 Dining and more. If you're planning your first Princess Cruise, this is the dining guide we wish we had when we started cruising. And if you're an experienced Princess cruiser, use the chapters below to jump directly to the restaurants and dining experiences you're interested in. We cover the four major categories of Princess dining: 🍽️ Included Dining — Main Dining Rooms, World Fresh Marketplace/buffet, International Café, Lido deck food, pizza, burgers, Swirls and more. 🍕 Casual Dining — How Princess casual dining works, what it costs without a package, Plus vs. Premier benefits, O'Malley's Irish Pub, Alfredo's/Gigi's and our personal favorites. 🥩 Specialty Dining — Crown Grill, Sabatini's, Catch by Rudi, The Butcher's Block by Dario, Makoto Ocean, Love by Britto and Umai Teppanyaki. We also explain how specialty dining reservations work and what to do when the app says everything is booked. 🥂 Experiential Dining — Chef's Table, Caymus Winemaker's Dinner, 360 Dining Experience, Crab Shack, Ultimate Balcony Dining and more. We'll also tell you which dining experiences we actually choose when we're cruising Princess, which ones we think are worth spending extra money on, and why you absolutely do NOT need to try everything on one cruise. Whether you're sailing Star Princess, Sun Princess, Discovery Princess, Enchanted Princess, Regal Princess, Caribbean Princess or another ship in the Princess fleet, this guide should help you understand your options and build a dining plan that works for you. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 Complete Princess Cruises Dining Guide 2:20 What's Included in Your Cruise Fare? 2:36 Princess Main Dining Rooms Explained 5:30 World Fresh Marketplace / Buffet 7:01 Late-Night Food & International Café 8:34 Lido Deck Food, Pizza, Burgers & Ice Cream 9:45 Room Service & OceanNow 12:30 Is the Included Food Enough? 13:03 Princess Casual Dining Explained 13:57 Plus vs. Premier Casual Dining Benefits 14:26 What Casual Dining Costs Without a Package 17:43 O'Malley's Irish Pub 22:00 Alfredo's & Gigi's Pizza 25:26 Can You Get Casual Dining To Go? 27:26 Princess Specialty Dining Explained 29:03 Crown Grill 30:48 Sabatini's Italian Trattoria 32:47 Catch by Rudi 35:13 The Butcher's Block by Dario 37:51 Makoto Ocean 39:43 Love by Britto 42:31 Umai Teppanyaki 45:47 Specialty Dining & Premier Package 46:39 How to Get Specialty Dining Reservations 51:20 Our Favorite Princess Specialty Restaurants 52:18 Princess Experiential Dining Explained 54:37 Chef's Table 59:50 Caymus Winemaker's Dinner 1:01:30 360 Dining Experience 1:07:00 Crab Shack 1:08:30 Ultimate Balcony Dining 1:10:15 What WE Would Actually Eat on a Princess Cruise 1:14:00 Final Princess Dining Tips & Recommendations 👇 QUESTION FOR YOU: What's the ONE Princess dining venue you absolutely have to visit on every cruise?
