Entertainment

Spirit of Discovery has her very own theatre at sea. The Playhouse offers plush seating for 444 guests, and showcases colourful performances every evening, along with cinema screenings, live music and even matinee shows on sea days. Raked seating ensures everyone has the perfect view, every time.

 

Spirit of Discovery also houses a eclectic collection of artwork. Saga have been working behind the scenes for several years, commissioning painters, sculptors and graphic artists to create bespoke pieces for the ship, showcased throughout the public areas.

Food and Drink

The Grand Dining Room, Spirit of Discovery’s main restaurant, brings you the very finest in British and International cuisine at breakfast, lunch and dinner. In this restaurant you can expect an ever-changing menu of sumptuous dishes, cooked by our team of expert chefs to the highest standard.
For something a bit more exotic, make a reservation at East to West. This restaurant offers an exclusive, dinner-only service every evening. Impeccably presented, our chefs bring to the table the full diversity and vibrancy of Eastern cuisine, from classic favourites to those with a contemporary twist. There's seafood on offer at Coast to Coast, and a fantastic dining experience at The Club, billed as one of the most relaxing bars onboard.
But if you're fancying something more casual, head to The Grill, which offers the same dinner menu as the Grand Dining Room on formal evenings, it’s a superb alternative venue, giving you even more dining choice. The Grill offers even more culinary options, from an irresistible buffet at breakfast to a bespoke lunchtime menu.
