Oceanview Café - So Far Beyond a Buffet

One of Celebrity Cruises’ signature favourites across the whole fleet, the Oceanview Café is the ever-popular buffet restaurant. This being Celebrity Beyond, of course, you may have difficulty recognising the new elevated version of this much-loved venue, which should perhaps be more accurately described as an upscale international gourmet marketplace.

Filled with light from the two-storey floor to ceiling windows, the Oceanview certainly lives up to its name. This fabulously bright and inviting space is furnished with a range of seating options from long bars with high stools, cosy nooks with banquettes and stylish cafe style tables and chairs. There is also an outside section for Al fresco dining blending seamlessly with the fabulous two-storey Sunset Bar.

The food, naturally, is of the same high standard we’ve come to expect from Celebrity Cruises, with all the popular options such as the carvery, Mexican cantina food and wonderful salad bars. However, unbelievably Celebrity have added even more live-action stations, including a bakery, an Asian stir-fry station, a made-to-order pizza station, a sizzling grill area, a sauté station and even a version of the popular beverage station, il Secondo al Bacio for your caffeine fix. If you have a sweet tooth, and who doesn’t, you won’t want to miss the dessert station with its unbelievable cake creations. The Oceanview Café is truly an Instagram era dream so make sure you have your camera ready.

Each station is so appetising that I usually forget my rule to choose just one option. I’m afraid my plate is often uncompromisingly filled with freshly carved pink prime rib, a spicy taco or two, a spoonful of a delicious curry and rice - and of course a side salad. Don’t even get me started on the desserts.

The bakery section looks like an edible work of art with all the different types of bread and pastries there are plenty of gluten-free options too. In fact, there are options for most dietary requirements including sugar-free desserts. However it is always a good idea to flag up any preferences prior to sailing, and also mention to the food & beverage manager in each restaurant who will ensure you have some delicious options.

Enjoy a hearty breakfast in Oceanview Café on Celebrity Beyond

Breakfast provides a huge array of choices from the great American breakfast with the crispiest bacon, sausage, pancakes and syrup. The full English is also available with an egg station offering boiled, poached and scrambled varieties. The omelette choice is a great option - you can choose your own fillings. There are lots of cereals to choose from, including oats/porridge, plus the freshest of fruit and a whole continental section of cold cuts, smoked salmon and cheese/yoghurts. Finish (or start) with croissants, Danish pastries, donuts or cake. There are also Asian breakfast dishes available too. Tea, coffee and juices are on tap or if you have a drinks package you can order fresh juices and your favourite freshly brewed coffee from il Secondo al Bacio.

Hot selections at lunch feature a variety of global cuisine, some of which will change daily - for example the type of meat on the carvery could be prime rib of beef, roast pork, Turkey or ham. Options will also vary between lunch and dinner. There are usually tacos, burritos and chilli with accompaniments, salads, pizzas, pastas and sandwiches. There is a grill station for cooked-to-order steaks, grilled fish, chicken breasts etc. There is also a homestyle station with family favourites or you may opt for some spicy Indian curry or an Asian stirfry or noodle dish., and of course that ever tempting dessert station plus ice creams. You literally can eat your way around the world.

In the evenings there may be a themed night - for example Italian, Fish , Greek, British often reflecting the ship’s itinerary. The usual buffet stations will also still be available.

Your drinks packages can be used in the Oceanview Café for your choice of beverage - beers, wines, cocktails or soft drinks, or they can be purchased individually and added to your onboard account.

Dress code in the Oceanview Café in informal - even on Evening Chic nights. However you are expected to wear shoes, and tops as a minimum - swimwear is not permitted even during the day unless covered.
