Princess Cruises said that when the Caribbean Princess debuts from a two-week, multi-million-dollar renovation on April 6, the company will have completed its “largest food and beverage innovation to ever take place during a drydock and guests will delight in seven new onboard dining destinations.”

“Fresh, regionally-inspired and family friendly offerings were the inspiration behind our largest food and beverage makeover ever,” said Jan Swartz, Princess Cruises president. “With updated décor and designs that offer a welcoming atmosphere, the seven new dining options aboard Caribbean Princess are sure to please any palate and delight the senses.”

The new dining options aboard Caribbean Princess include:

World Fresh Marketplace – Replacing Horizon Court (deck 14).

Planks BBQ – serving up family-style “Planks” of loaded ribs, beef, sausages and chicken.

Steamers Seafood – offers east coast-style Steamers with regional flair including Black & Blue Mussels, Scallops & Sausage, Classic Clams, Shrimp and Sausage and Broiled Scallops, Shrimp and Crab-stuffed Flounder. 

Top-Deck Dining Venues – Four Princess top-deck outdoor dining offerings will be revitalized, renamed and enhanced, including:

The Salty Dog Grill (formerly Trident Grill) – guests can indulge in “The Ernesto” burger.

Slice (formerly Pizzeria) – featuring west coast and east coast offerings.

Coffee & Cones (formerly Scoops) – offering treats of gourmet ice-cream sandwiches, complimentary ice cream cones and now brewing specialty coffee on the top deck, serving New Grounds Crafted Coffee.

The Mix (formerly Blackbeard’s Bar) – the poolside bar will be updated and redesigned with vibrant colors (full designs will be completed by fall 2017).
