Cruise with good vegetarian/vegan options

Hey there! I'm thinking of doing a Mediterranean cruise to Italy and Greek Islands with my family. Since it's my first time, I was wondering if there are vegetarian/vegan options (not just the typical sad salad) and if you need to say it during the reservation or they are available in the restaurant.

Also, which are your favourite cruise companies? I'm looking to depart from Barcelona, any experience or tips will be much appreciated.

Hello Sam! I did a Mediterranean cruise departing from Barcelona with Cruceros Mediterraneo last year with my sister who's a vegetarian. There are plenty of options on the buffet for you to choose, and there was always a good vegetarian option - not just salads, but properly made vegetarian meals. In terms of the trip itself, it was a great experience both in terms of the quality of the ship, amenities and services.

Hi Samantha! I cruised the Mediterranean with Costa in 2016. I had absolutely no problem finding vegetarian meals. The quality varied. I had some amazing meals and a couple lackluster. The roasted vegetable napoleon was outstanding. I could also always choose pasta with a pomodoro sauce (which was vegan). The main dining room on most lines will have a vegetarian option on the menu that changes nightly. Costa always had a vegetarian appetizer as well. There was a vegan at my table that chose to get the same salad every night but the chef came out the first night and offered to make meals for her. He offered stir fried vegetables and a couple of other things but she preferred a salad. You won;t have any problem finding options on most ships. The restaurants in port are another story, most of the ones we tried considered fish to be the vegetarian option!
