Forks over knives cruisers can celebrate! Included in Oceania Cruises vegan dining options are the only cold-pressed raw juice and vegan smoothie bars at sea. Currently available aboard the Marina and Riviera, the juice and smoothie bars will soon be added to Oceania’s four other ships. The vegan menus are already available fleet wide. The cruise line already has an extensive selection of vegetarian, gluten-free, and kosher-style meals.
The vegan menus will be featured in the Grand Dining Room at breakfast, lunch and dinner, including a total of more than 250 dishes including appetizers, soups, salads, entrees, and desserts.
“We are delighted to expand our culinary offerings to please an even wider array of palates and offer our guests more diverse choices to suit today’s wellness-focused lifestyles,” stated Bob Binder, President & CEO of Oceania Cruises. “Whether guests are looking for a healthy and invigorating start to their day or a refreshing and rejuvenating mid-day pick-up, the Raw Juice & Smoothie Bar has something to delight every palate.”
