Pepperoni Pizza Pizza on Carnival Cruise Line's ships is popular and often a place where guests will form long lines to get some. Carnival's Pizzeria is open most of the day, but it is not 24 hours anymore. On my November 2023 Carnival Breeze cruise the pizzeria was open from 9am until 4am according to the Carnival Hub App onboard.
The goal of this post is to share tips, information, and the menu related to Carnival's Pizzeria. I have also included a quick reference at the bottom that shows where the pizzeria is located on each Carnival ship.

| What is on the menu?
The menu will vary a bit on some ships, especially Carnival's XL class ships. For example, the Carnival Celebration's Miami Slice serves Margherita, Pepperoni, Quattro Formaggi, La Habana, and Picadillo. Are Caesar Salad and Calzones still available through the Pizzeria? Calzones have not been available on the Pizzeria menu since a change in menus that happened around 8-10 years ago. Caesar Salad is still offered on the Pizzeria menu of some ships, but not on all ships. Even on ships that have the Caesar Salad listed on the menu, it is not always available if supplies are not available at the pizzeria. Can I get a custom pizza? Typically Carnival's crew are not willing to make custom pizzas. I have asked several times and been told no. However, some guests have reported success in getting a custom pizza. It does not hurt to ask if you can have something customized, but the answer is probably no. |  |
Tip #1: Be Prepared For A Line
Carnival's Pizzeria lines onboard can get long. This is due to crew staffing and time required to cook pizza. On my recent cruises I have seen the Pizzeria crew members cooking multiple pizzas at once when means when the pizzas are done the line will move quicker until they have to stop to get more in the oven. The crew members often take orders and then step away from the counter to prepare the pizza & get it in the oven. Additionally, late at night there are less food options available onboard so guests will line up for pizza due to the lack of other options. Please note: pizza is no longer available 24 hours which means it will close at some point in the night/early morning. I highly recommend mentally preparing yourself to have to wait anywhere from 10-30 minutes on average for pizza. The wait may be shorter or longer than that depending on when you go & how many other guests are getting pizza.
Tip #2: Order The Quantity You Want
From my experience, the crew members working the pizzeria will automatically serve two slices to each guest. If you only want one slice feel free to let them know. However, you can also ask for a whole pizza. If you want two slices of one type of pizza and two of another - just ask! Since you likely had to wait in line, make sure you get what you want!
Tip #3: Want pizza, but willing to pay to bypass the line? Order via the Carnival Hub App!
Check your Carnival Hub App onboard to see if you are able to order pizza. If the Carnival Hub App is accepting orders you can select the pizza you want and your Sail & Sign Card's onboard spending account will charged. You can have the pizza delivered to your stateroom or tell the app your location of delivery. As of May 2022, the pizza fee is $6 per pizza.
