Looking back from the very front corner of the vessel's passenger accommodation we can see the Met Bar itself in the distance. Further seating more appropriate for eating is behind the bench seat towards the rear of this view, while the truckers restaurant is to the left. Although I have no picture of this area, it is largely unchanged from the Norse Merchant days apart from being completely re-trimmed in Stena's style. © NIFerrySite

A view showing part of the onboard shop. The shop sells a selection of items including but not limited to Fragrances (some good deals when I was onboard), sweets, souvenirs and gifts, and travel essentials. The member of crew manning the shop seemed very knowledgable and keen to offer assistance in choosing fragrances. © NIFerrySite

Corridor through the passenger cabin block. This runs straight through this area and can be used as an alternative to the main corridor for walking between the front and rear passenger areas. © NIFerrysiteCorridor through the passenger cabin block.

A closer look at the News Room. Just visible on the left of the picture is one of a number of large mirrors onboard the Stena Mersey. Also to the left and out of shot is where the corridor through the passenger cabin block emerges. © NIFerrySite

Continuing our walk towards the bow (front) of the ship, we next pass through one of the main seating areas, the Barista Coffee Shop. This view is taken from the other side looking towards the news room (the glass panels in the background). © NIFerrySite.

Squeezed in a corner at the rear of Barista is this small Curious George themed children's play area. A larger more permanent play area was fitted in a subsequent refit. © NIFerrySite

The 2 main walkways through Barista merge here in-front of the staircase to the main cabin deck. These double doors lead to the pod lounge, Stena Plus, and then the Met Bar and Grill, as well as the truckers restaurant. © NIFerrySite

Immediately to the left as you go through the double doors is the pod lounge, with the small but adequate Stena Plus area in front of it. The area behind the photographer contains the main toilet facilities of the ship. © NIFerrySite

A few steps forward and past Stena Plus we come to the Met Bar and Grill. This area has received a major overhaul in the past year and is much improved with hotplates holding the more popular meals ensuring much faster service. © NIFerrySite

A shot along the hot plate showing some of the selection of foods ready to be taken away when placing your order. Items such as Steaks and Pizza's are still cooked to order and brought to your table. Food was found to be tasty, well cooked, and good value (for a ferry). © NIFerrySite
