bob&france Posted July 14 #1 Share Posted July 14 Hello, we have an upcoming cruise on the Island and have the Plus Package which comes with 2 complimentary casual dining experiences. Can anyone tell me what they are on the Island….no luck on the deck plans and when we call they say Alfredo’s…but that’s not on the deck plans ….pop up options somewhere ? thanks …..Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallyj Posted July 14 #2 Share Posted July 14 (edited) Yes, Alfredo’s will be a pop up in Sabatini’s on some Sea Days. It will be listed in the Daily Events. There is a passenger current doing a ‘live from the Island Princess’ (this is not the title of the thread) . The thread title is Live from the Land of Princess. Provides pictures of some of the Event listings. Edited July 14 by wallyj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beg3yrs Posted July 14 #3 Share Posted July 14 IIRC, Pub Lunch is also a pop-up and considered a casual dining option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JimmyVWine Posted July 14 #4 Share Posted July 14 Princess needs to look at offering dynamic pricing for its packages based on ship. Plus is worth more on ships that have a dedicated Alfredo’s and O’Malley’s than ships that have “pop ups”. Very different experiences and availability. And Premier is worth more on ships that have Vines than ships that don’t. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no stand alone casual restaurants. At lunch time Bayou Restaurant has pop ups. Salty Dog pub & others. Check your Patter aka newsletter under dining section once onboard . if you wish to know now-Currently there is a Live from the Island (Live from The Land of Princess) 30 pages and counting and there are some patters in those pages. I’ll let you find them. That’ll give you more of an idea. Edited July 14 by arizonaperson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For cocktail drinkers like us the plus is perfect. I have always found some glasses at Vines within or close to $15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to pick nits, but the venue is called VINES. Not WHISKY BARRELS. It is inherent in the comment that ships with Vines offer people on the Premium package a wider variety of $15.01-$20 glasses of wine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorri111 Posted July 15 #11 Share Posted July 15 Does this pop up option for Alfredos also apply to the Diamond? Is it always in Sabatinis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfredo’s is a pop up on Diamond P.- check The Patter onboard or check with one of the dining room managers for location and time. The other casual restaurant is Kai sushi.

Rare vino100 Posted July 16 #18 Share Posted July 16 Are there pop ups on the Emerald for plus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallyj Posted July 16 #19 Share Posted July 16 10 minutes ago, vino100 said: Are there pop ups on the Emerald for plus? I do not believe there are additional pop up dining venues for ‘Plus’ on Emerald since it already has, Planks, Steamers, Vines, and SaltyDogGastroPub venues as casual dining options. I believe Planks and Steamers alternate nights they are offered. Emerald may do pop up Crab Shack, but Crab Shack is a Specialty Dining venue with a cover charge of $39 plus gratuity.
