Is breakfast lunch dinner free in Royal Caribbean cruise?

Meals from many onboard venues, such as the Main Dining Room and Windjammer Caf?, are included in the price of your cruise.



Yes, breakfast, lunch, and dinner are entirely free at several complimentary venues on every Royal Caribbean ship. The Main Dining Room offers a formal sit-down experience with multi-course menus, while the Windjammer Marketplace provides a massive buffet with international cuisines for all three meals. Additionally, casual spots like Cafe Promenade, Park Cafe, and Sorrento’s Pizza offer free snacks and light meals throughout the day. While "Specialty Dining" venues like Chops Grille or Izumi require an extra cover charge (often $35–$60 per person), a passenger can easily enjoy a high-quality, diverse culinary experience for the entire duration of their cruise without spending a single cent on food.
