Seven Seas Prestige will introduce a new collection of bar and beverage experiences when the ship arrives in December, led by Galileo’s Bar, Mediterranean-inspired drinks, an exclusive Prestige cocktail, and a wider mix of lounges across the ship. Regent Seven Seas Cruises is linking several of these drinks directly with dining venues, giving the beverage programme a clear role before dinner, during meals, and across the ship’s social spaces.
Galileo’s Bar will focus on premium Italian spirits and distinctive cocktails. Azure and Solmar Terrace at Compass Rose add their own beverage directions, while the wider lounge network gives guests more settings to choose from throughout the voyage.
Galileo’s Bar Creates a Distinct Pre-Dinner Experience
The all-new Galileo’s Bar is designed specifically as a pre-dinner destination. Its focus on Italian spirits and cocktails gives the venue a defined place within Prestige’s wider collection of bars and lounges.

Premium Italian Spirits Set the Direction
Galileo’s Bar will serve premium Italian spirits alongside distinctive cocktails. The regional emphasis gives the venue a specific beverage identity rather than a broad drinks brief. Guests heading to dinner will have a dedicated setting built around those flavours.
The Italian focus also separates Galileo’s from the ship’s other named lounges. Regent has given the venue a clear role within the evening programme. Its drinks list and pre-dinner positioning work together as the defining elements.
The Prestige Cocktail Adds a Ship-Specific Signature
Regent will introduce an exclusive Prestige cocktail as part of the new line-up. The supplied context does not detail its ingredients, so the confirmed distinction is its exclusivity to the ship. This gives Prestige a signature drink within the broader beverage programme.
A named ship-specific cocktail adds another point of identity to the launch. Guests will have a drink linked directly with Prestige rather than only with a restaurant or lounge. The concept sits alongside the Italian influence at Galileo’s without duplicating it.
Pre-Dinner Positioning Gives Galileo’s a Clear Purpose
Galileo’s is designed around the period before dinner, which distinguishes it from lounges described more broadly as spaces for different occasions. This defined purpose places the bar directly within the ship’s evening dining flow. Guests have a dedicated venue for drinks before moving on to dinner.
The concept is simple and specific. Regent is using timing, spirits, and cocktails to give Galileo’s its own identity. This clear positioning helps separate the venue from the wider lounge network.
Azure and Solmar Terrace Tie Drinks to the Dining Concept
Some of the strongest beverage details sit inside the ship’s dining programme. Azure and Solmar Terrace at Compass Rose each receive drinks selected around the character of the venue.
The result is a closer relationship between food and beverage. Regional wines, herbal cocktails, spritzes, and zero-proof creations all form part of the dining story.

Azure Brings Herbal Cocktails and Citrus-Led Spritzes
Azure, Prestige’s new mezze-style speciality restaurant, will serve herbal cocktails and citrus-led spritzes alongside Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. The drinks reflect the regional direction of the menu rather than operating as a generic cocktail selection. This gives the restaurant a more cohesive food-and-drink identity.
The two cocktail styles also offer different flavour directions within the same venue. Herbal drinks and citrus-led spritzes sit alongside the food concept named by Regent. Guests, therefore, have several beverage styles to consider with the meal.
Regional Wines Extend Azure’s Mediterranean Focus
Azure will also offer regional wines to complement its cuisine. This adds a wine-led option beside the restaurant’s herbal cocktails and spritzes. The result is a broader drinks selection while keeping the regional theme intact.
Wine adds another way to approach the menu without changing the restaurant’s identity. Guests who prefer wine with dinner have a regionally framed choice within Azure. The beverage programme remains connected to the food served in the venue.
Solmar Terrace Adds Zero-Proof Choice
Solmar Terrace at Compass Rose will offer wines, cocktails, and zero-proof creations. The inclusion of zero-proof drinks places non-alcoholic choices alongside the venue’s wine and cocktail selection. Guests seeking an alcohol-free drink, therefore, remain within the same beverage programme.
This is an important point of variety within the announced concepts. Solmar Terrace is not limited to one beverage category or drinking preference. Its list spans wine, cocktails, and zero-proof options in one setting.
Prestige Extends the Beverage Programme Across the Ship
The new concepts sit within a larger network of bars and lounges. Regent has named spaces ranging from panoramic and Art Deco-inspired lounges to an al fresco pool bar.
Prestige will also serve cocktails, fine wines, and premium spirits across its restaurants. The beverage programme, therefore, reaches beyond Galileo’s, Azure, and Solmar Terrace.
Three Lounges Add Different Indoor Settings
Prestige Lounge, Meridian Lounge, and the panoramic Observation Lounge form part of the ship’s wider venue line-up. Regent has not provided individual drinks menus for these lounges in the supplied context. Their confirmed distinction lies in the range of named settings available to guests.
Observation Lounge carries a panoramic description, while Prestige Lounge and Meridian Lounge add further indoor spaces. Together, the three venues broaden the places available for drinks across the ship. They sit alongside Galileo’s rather than replacing its more specific pre-dinner role.

Connoisseur Lounge and Pool Bar Shift the Setting
The Art Deco-inspired Connoisseur Lounge and al fresco Pool Bar provide two contrasting environments. One brings an indoor design theme, while the other places the experience outdoors by the pool. Their settings add further variety to the ship’s drinks venues.
Regent is therefore spreading beverage service across spaces with different atmospheres. Guests have indoor and outdoor options within the wider programme. This keeps the venue choice from relying on a single lounge format.
Coffee Connection Rounds Out the Venue Line-Up
Coffee Connection is also included among the named venues aboard the Prestige. The supplied context does not provide a specific drinks list for the space, so its confirmed role here is as part of the wider selection available across the ship. It adds another venue to a line-up already spanning lounges, restaurants, and the Pool Bar.
Across the restaurants, guests will also find cocktails, fine wines, and premium spirits. This extends the beverage programme into dining spaces rather than confining it to dedicated bars. The ship’s drinks offering is therefore distributed across several parts of the onboard experience.
Prestige’s new beverage programme gives travellers another detail to weigh alongside itinerary, suite choice, and dining. Our Cruise Finder helps you review available Regent sailings and compare voyages around your preferred dates and destinations.
If the onboard experience plays a major role in your decision, look at how Galileo’s, Azure, Solmar Terrace, and the wider lounge line-up fit the way you prefer to dine and spend your evenings. Comparing the sailing and ship experience together gives you a clearer basis for choosing.
Plan Your Regent Voyage Around Your Preferred Experience
Prestige is building its beverage programme around several distinct settings rather than one signature venue. Italian spirits, a ship-specific cocktail, Mediterranean-inspired drinks, regional wines, zero-proof options, and a broad lounge network give guests different choices across the day and evening.
