Marella Launches New British Gastropub 'Piccadilly’s'
Marella Cruises is unveiling its latest onboard dining experience, a gastropub-style restaurant named Piccadilly’s, now rolling out across the entire fleet as part of its all-inclusive offering starting this June.
A New Culinary Addition Across All Ships
Luke Saunders, food and drink development manager at Marella Cruises, shared: “We are pleased to be launching this latest innovative concept restaurant onboard all of our ships, Piccadilly’s.”
He added, “After a successful trial across a couple of ships, we have seen great appetite for a range of hearty British favorites, from elegant desserts to comforts that taste like home. We can’t wait to see our customers’ reactions to this new restaurant concept.”
The walk-in venue features 250 seats and will welcome guests each evening between 6:00 and 9:00 p.m. It joins existing onboard favorites such as Kora La and Surf and Turf, further expanding the cruise line’s diverse dining portfolio.
