The Café
Located at the centre of the passenger deck the Café is open to serve meals all day. Breakfast starts early on the first sailing of each day with specialties like The Cat Express (eggs, bacon, cheese on a biscuit). The lunch menu is varied with choices such as sandwiches, chili, pizza or fresh made local seafood chowder. Dinner is served on the last crossing of each day with a full selection of hearty hot and cold meals.
The Bar
Located both forward and aft on the passenger deck you can order a wide choice of specialty drinks, or try something on our list of cocktails. On tap for the draft lover is Nova Scotia brewed Keith's and Labatt's Blue. Wine, liqueurs and nonalcoholic drinks, along with coffee and snacks are also available.

Viewing Decks
While spectacular views can be seen from virtually any location on the ship, special viewing areas truly make the crossing an unforgettable experience on the high seas. Maine and Nova Scotia coastlines can be seen from 4 stories high while departing and entering port. Beautiful sunsets are also regular occurrences on the evening sailings. Floor to ceiling windows on the side of the ship are great for big ocean views. As well, the forward lounge provides vistas from three sides of the ship. From the stern (rear) of the ship you can watch the water jets of the Cat shoot out a tail over 20 feet high and 50 feet long. It's great for taking pictures while you get a true sense of the power and speed of the ship. Sea birds and mammals are common sites, so bring your camera or binoculars.
Handicap Access
Wheelchair access is available on the passenger deck, including washrooms, seating, food service and movie lounge. It is recommended you make your requirements known at time of check in and the crew would be more than pleased to assist you on board the ship. On board ramps are available from the car deck that lead to the passenger area.
Smoking
There is no smoking inside the ship, however an outside deck is available to all passengers.
