There are a number of options for eating and drinking on board to suit your needs – you can order from the Feast Restaurant, in Magnus Lounge or the Midship Bar.

Vending machines are located on board offering tea, coffee, soft drinks, sandwiches and snacks too.

In the morning as you arrive in Lerwick or Aberdeen, make sure you enjoy a leisurely breakfast to start your day.
