Royal Caribbean menus 2024: Main dining room, specialty restaurants & more

Ready to eat on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship but want to know where you can find restaurant menus? You’re not alone, with the decision of which restaurant to eat dependent on what they’ll serve.

Royal Caribbean ships have a variety of included and specialty dining. Each has its own menu, with some menus the same every day and other menus changing daily.  Moreover, sometimes the menu varies from ship to ship.

To prepare you for where to eat, we accumulated as many menus as possible to share with you an idea of what you can expect.

Some menus may change before you get onboard. Some restaurants don’t have a fixed menu, and there’s far more variety. Nonetheless, I’ve tried my best to provide the most complete look at what we have, and hope for the best.

This post is a work in progress, as we try to keep it updated with the most up-to-date menus. If something is out of date, please email matt @ royalcaribbeanblog.com with a new copy you find!

Here’s a look at the 2024 menus at Royal Caribbean restaurants.

Main Dining Room menus

Royal Caribbean revamped its Main Dining Room menus in 2023, and it continues to be offered in 2024.

Each night there is a different dinner theme to the menu, with a mix of cuisines you can choose.

Welcome aboard menu

All sailings will feature the Welcome Aboard menu on the first evening.

French night menu

Sailings six nights and longer will offer the French Night menu on the first formal night.

Caribbean night menu

On Caribbean sailings, the Caribbean Night menu comes out on the first evening at a Caribbean port.

Italian night menu

All sailings will feature the Italian Night menu on at least one night.

Royal Night menu

Sailings six nights and longer will offer The Royal Night menu on the second formal night.

Mexican night menu

What is the order of the Main Dining Room menus?

The exact order will depend on your sailing.

One way to know which night will have which menu is to check the Royal Caribbean app in the days leading up to your cruise.

In the app, the menus will appear and in the correct order for you to reference.

Once on the ship, you can also find the dinner menu posted outside the Main Dining Room, as well as noted in the daily Cruise Compass.

Windjammer menus

There is no posted menu for the Windjammer buffet.  

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served in the Windjammer, but there is no printed menu. Food stations will change daily for lunch and dinner. Breakfast is mostly the same every day.

Dinner will have a theme posted in the Royal Caribbean app and Cruise Compass, but it refers to a highlighted cuisine served that night, and not the entirety of the choices.

Essentially, you’ll show up and see what they have to offer.

The Key lunch menu

If you purchase The Key VIP package for your cruise, a welcome aboard lunch is included with the cost.
