The Raising the Bar with Grüner Bar & Dining

Crafted by the renowned Hecker Guthrie team in Melbourne, Australia, our brand-new luxury ships mark a new era of European River Cruising. These vessels redefine luxury and offer an unrivalled selection of seven dining experiences — the most diverse culinary offering of any European river ship.  

With evolving menus to reflect the seasons, every meal on board is an opportunity to explore something new, from a gourmet dinner and a casual bite with a view to enjoying your favourite drink delivered directly to your suite. Our dining options ensure there’s always a perfect choice to suit your mood.  

New Age of River Cruise Dining 

The Grüner Bar & Dining is a unique wine and cocktail venue, featuring dishes inspired by Grüner Markt, Germany's fresh produce markets, and offering seasonal, locally inspired small plates designed for sharing. Monique Lane of Fellow Hospitality envisioned this venue as a European neighbourhood wine bar, where the staff know your name and have your drink of choice at the ready. 

Designed to set guests at ease, the venue is reminiscent of a neighbourhood wine bar —a place where you can relax, catch up with friends, and sample mouthwatering food and drink, including the signature Grüner Veltliner wine.  

Dining at New Heights 

Unlike your typical neighbourhood wine bar – or any cruise ship dining venue, for that matter – Grüner Bar & Dining takes onboard dining to new heights in every sense. Courtesy of a cutting-edge hydraulic system, the entire venue can be raised from Deck 3 to the Sun Deck, creating a dynamic dining experience with panoramic views. In an incredible feat of engineering, the world expands as the riverside views unfold, to be enjoyed from this unique vantage point.
