Wondering how much drinks are onboard P&O Cruises from Australia? Here is the latest P&O drinks prices for 2023. This should give you a clearer idea of how expensive your cruise will be and whether or not you should get the drinks package.
P&O Drinks Prices for 2023
P&O has the same drinks menu across its fleet. So whether you’re on the Pacific Explorer, Pacific Adventure or Pacific Encounter the pricing should be the same. I took a trip the Pacific Explorer recently, but drinks prices may change in the future. Let me know in the comments if anything has changed.
P.S – This guide is for P&O Cruises in Australia which is different the British P&O.
P&O Cocktail & Spirits Prices
P&O has a set cocktail menu that is available across the ship. Restaurants and The Bonded Store have their own specialty cocktails as well.
Cocktails on P&O cost between $15-19. There are some more expensive cocktails available at The Bonded Store which has Archie Rose Gin Cocktails.
Here are some of the Cocktails currently available on P&O cruises:
| Cocktail | Description | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Classic Margarita | Tequila and triple sec shaken with sweet & sour and strained | $15 |
| Chocolate Espresso Martini | Vodka, kahlua and espresso shaken with chocolate syrup | $15 |
| Long Island Ice Tea | Vodka, gin, tequila, triple sec and rum with sweet & sour and a splash of cola | $19 |
| Bellini | Peach schnaps, sparkling wine and orange juice | $15 |
| Old Fashioned | Makers mark, bitters and sugar syrup | $17 |
I found that none of these cocktails were particularly strong. The best cocktails I had were the specialty cocktails available at the restaurants like Dragon Lady.
Spirits cost on average $9-12. A Bacardi and Coke will set you back $11.
P&O Beer and Wine Prices
Wine is available by the glass and by the bottle. The average price for a glass of wine was $13-$15 and depends on the variety. A bottle will cost $35+. You can buy more expensive bottles of wine if you’re having a celebration and wanted something a little fancy.
Beer and cider costs around $9-12.
P&O Soft Drink Prices
Soft Drinks are all $3.5 onboard P&O cruises. Juices are available for $4. There are also mocktails available and they are priced at $5.25.
P&O Coffee Prices
While there are automatic coffee machines on board, you can also order a barista made coffee which we found were nicer. These cost $4.
Hi Anthony, thanks for the very informative post, could you please confirm the prices noted are in Australian dollars? I’ve heard some cruises charge in USD
P&O charges Australian Dollars
Do P&O have alcohol free beer and wine available on board
On my last cruise I can’t remember seeing any alcohol free beer and wine. They had mocktails. Hopefully someone else can chime in with an answer.
