Carnival Breakfast Buffet Menu at Lido Marketplace
Breakfast at the buffet is one of the easiest options for starting the day on Carnival Celebration. At Lido Marketplace, passengers can put together a traditional breakfast with eggs, sausage, bacon, pancakes and other familiar choices, while the buffet may also feature a few rotating specials.
During my Carnival Celebration cruise, I photographed the breakfast menu displayed at Lido Marketplace. Here is a look at the available items and the specials offered when this menu was photographed.

Carnival Celebration Breakfast Buffet Menu
The Lido Marketplace breakfast menu photographed onboard included a straightforward selection of hot breakfast foods:
- Scrambled eggs
- Boiled eggs
- Pork sausage link
- Tater tots
- Bacon
- Grilled turkey ham
- Oatmeal
- Grits
- Pancake
The menu also identifies several dietary considerations. Scrambled eggs and boiled eggs are marked gluten-free, while tater tots are marked both vegetarian and gluten-free. Oatmeal and grits are marked vegetarian.
Pork sausage and bacon are specifically identified as containing pork.
Today’s Breakfast Specials
In addition to the regular breakfast choices, the photographed menu displayed three items under “Today’s Special.”
Salmon Benedict
The Salmon Benedict consisted of salmon and egg. The menu notes that the salmon and egg are served undercooked and includes a public health advisory concerning raw or undercooked seafood and eggs.
Biscuit & Sausage Gravy
Another special was biscuit and sausage gravy. The menu identifies this selection as containing pork.
Cowboy Egg Slider
The Cowboy Egg Slider combined:
- Scrambled egg
- Sausage
- Bacon
- Jack cheese
- BBQ sauce
- Soft roll
This item is also marked as containing pork.
Because these selections were presented specifically as “Today’s Special,” passengers should not assume that the same three specials will necessarily appear every morning or on every Carnival Celebration sailing.
