Sorrento’s Pizza: A Royal Caribbean Classic
If you’ve sailed with Royal Caribbean, chances are you’ve ended up at Sorrento’s Pizza at least once—probably after a show, or maybe late at night when you weren’t quite ready for bed. For a lot of us, it’s not just a snack stop, it’s a little tradition.
Where It All Began
Back in the early 2000s, Royal Caribbean started experimenting with the idea of a dedicated pizzeria. Pizza had always been floating around onboard (buffets, room service, you name it), but Sorrento’s was different. It was its own spot—bright signage, a fun atmosphere, and most importantly, a place you could count on for a hot slice any time of day.
Growing Into a Favorite
It didn’t take long for Sorrento’s to catch on. By the time the Freedom-class ships launched, Sorrento’s was already a fan favorite. Then came the Oasis-class, with their massive Royal Promenades—and right there, front and center, was Sorrento’s. Suddenly, grabbing a slice wasn’t just convenient, it was part of the whole Royal Caribbean experience.
Why We Love It
Here’s the thing: Sorrento’s isn’t trying to be fancy. The menu has the classics—cheese, pepperoni, maybe a rotating specialty pie if you’re lucky. But that’s exactly why people love it. It’s comfort food at sea. You can wander in wearing your pool clothes or after dancing at the nightclub, and you know you’ll get something hot and satisfying. And the best part? It’s included in your cruise fare.
Sorrento’s Today
Now, it’s hard to imagine a Royal Caribbean ship without Sorrento’s. From the biggest Icon-class ships to the smaller Voyager- and Freedom-class vessels, it’s always there—ready to welcome you with the smell of fresh-baked pizza. It’s one of those places that makes the ship feel a little more like home.
Final Slice
For some, it’s a quick grab-and-go before heading back to the cabin. For others, it’s where late-night laughs and “one more slice” turn into lasting memories. However you enjoy it, Sorrento’s has become a Royal Caribbean classic—and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon.
