Dinner at Rosie O'Grady's and Evening Performance of Spamalot.

Rosie O'Grady's is a wonderful steak and seafood house in the tradition of the great New York saloons. A Broadway Theater District fixture, Rosie O'Grady's is centrally located near Times Square, Rockefeller Center, the Jacob Javits Convention Center, and a short distance from several major museums. The handsome old bar is full of character and attracts regulars and tourists alike, serving superb continental and American fare.


After dinner at Bobby Van's it's off to the Shubert Theater for an evening of laughs with the Broadway hit Spamlot - a musical lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail.


On-Board Activities:

As already mentioned, Cruise Freek groups never force socializations, however, if you are so inclined, many of our group members are already in the planning stages of on-board activities including:

  • Dinner or Lunch at Todd English
  • Cocktail Party
  • Pub or Cabin Crawl

You are invited to join Cruise Freek Forums and contribute your ideas for our on-board activities!
