    The Best Buffet Items to Try on a DFDS Mini Cruise

    ByLaura Dawson

    The Explorer’s Kitchen buffet on DFDS King Seaways & Princess Seaways offers excellent value — all-you-can-eat dinner (~£21 adult) and breakfast (~£8.75) deliver global flavours from fresh salads and soups to American-style burgers, Greek meatballs, Spanish omelettes, Indian daal, Mediterranean paella and hearty Dutch-inspired desserts. Standout dishes include juicy burgers & hot dogs with all the trimmings, rich Greek-style meatballs, flavour-packed paella, and a generous cheese selection perfect for post-dinner grazing — portions are satisfying and quality far exceeds typical ferry expectations when pre-booked. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are clearly marked and plentiful — making it family-friendly and inclusive for different diets. The relaxed, bright restaurant setting with panoramic sea views turns meals into part of the mini-cruise experience — perfect for refuelling between deck walks, live entertainment and arrival in Amsterdam. For something more plated and refined, the North Sea Bistro à la carte (~£26 for 2 courses) offers elevated dining — but the buffet remains the best-value, most fun way to eat onboard.

    ByLaura Dawson

    San Antonio has grown far beyond its party-hard reputation — today the harbour and Sunset Strip offer sunset dining that rivals anywhere on the island, blending laid-back beach-club energy with surprisingly refined food. Leopard Ibiza Rest sits right on the marina — order fresh pesto pasta or grilled meats with a bottle of crisp white wine while watching boats bob and the sky turn pink; it’s affordable, relaxed and one of the best-value spots for lunch or early dinner. Itaca Beach Club (part of the Ocean Beach family) brings laid-back Jamaican jerk chicken, fresh fish tacos and strong mojitos to the strip — perfect for daytime lounging that easily drifts into evening cocktails. Mint Lounge on Sunset Strip delivers elevated plates — standout lobster & prosecco risotto, popcorn chicken sharers and creative cocktails — paired with unbeatable views as the sun melts into the sea. Café Mambo and Café del Mar remain iconic sunset institutions — book ahead for a table, order sharing plates and cocktails, and let world-class DJs soundtrack one of the most famous sunsets on earth. Whether you want casual marina lunches, upscale sunset dinners or pure vibes with great food, San Antonio now offers some of Ibiza’s most memorable meals — all with that perfect sea breeze and golden-hour glow.

    ByLaura Dawson

    Portinatx remains one of Ibiza’s quietest, most family-friendly corners — perfect when you want crystal-clear waters, golden sand and zero party pressure. Las Enamorados offers laid-back breakfasts and lunches with unbeatable sea views — think avocado & poached eggs or fresh muesli bowls while watching boats drift in and out of the cove. The lighthouse walk above the bay delivers panoramic coastline views — one of the most Instagram-worthy (and peaceful) spots on the north coast, especially at golden hour. Caballito del Mar beach bar sits right on the sand — crisp white wine, simple tuna baguettes and friendly ex-pat owners create the ideal lazy lunch spot without pretension. If you’re after calm seas, pretty beaches and slow-paced days, Portinatx delivers pure relaxation far from the Ibiza crowds — ideal for recharging before heading back to livelier areas.

    ByLaura Dawson

    Prague hides incredible experiences beyond Charles Bridge crowds — The Anonymous Bar serves film-inspired cocktails in a secret speakeasy hidden behind a Guy Fawkes mask entrance. The Pub lets you pour your own Pilsner straight from the table tap — stats appear on a giant leaderboard turning every visit into a friendly drinking competition. Café Louvre, over 100 years old, blends French elegance with Czech history — Einstein was once a regular and the art gallery + billiards room add extra charm. Duplex remains Prague’s most exclusive rooftop club — velvet ropes, international DJs and skyline views attract a glamorous crowd. Bio Oko cinema offers cult films in deckchairs, beanbags and vintage cars — complete with craft beer and homemade snacks for the ultimate indie movie night. These hidden gems reveal a cooler, more creative Prague that locals love and most tourists miss.
