Aboard the Atlantic Liners — Vintage Ocean Liner Menus

Transatlantic dining 1882–1928 — Cunard, White Star, Hamburg-Amerika, Norddeutscher Lloyd, French Line, Red Star, and Holland America

The transatlantic ocean liner was the international setting of the late-Victorian through pre-WWII era. Cunard, White Star, Hamburg-Amerika, Norddeutscher Lloyd, the French Line and Red Star competed for first-class passengers between New York and the European capitals. Every meal of every voyage came with a freshly printed menu card.

This is the heart of our archive — three-plus decades of dining at sea, from Victorian elegance to Art Deco grandeur. Includes Aquitania, Berengaria, Olympic, Lusitania, Mauretania, Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, and dozens of other historic ships.
