From al fresco to a la carte, sumptuous buffets to savoury snacks, they offer service as special as the food.

Sit down for a meal aboard a Thomson cruise and you're in for a treat. Just as they've taken care to ensure wines are perfect for the climate and the occasion, so the food is planned to entice and satisfy you. One of the pleasures of cruising, after all, is enjoying fabulous food whenever you feel like it. So whether you'd like to try a Mexican buffet or a roast beef dinner, morning coffee or afternoon tea, a slice of cake or a slice of pizza, you can. And the choice of dining venues is just as varied. There's full waiter or self-service restaurants, al fresco and a la carte dining options and, of course, 24 hour room service. But wherever you choose to dine, you'll find the service is the same: attentive and courteous, helpful and friendly. While the impeccable standards do not differ across the fleet, the exact range of dining options depends on your chosen ship.
