Is the Pointe Formal?


Recommended Posts

I've only been to the supper clubs on non-formal nights. Every time I was there, I only seen 1 or 2 couples dressed up. The rest were in casual clothes (slacks & polos or slacks and blouse).

 

I called the supper club and asked what the dress code was and I was told that it is the same as the dining room. Jackets are only required on formal nights.

I e-mailed Carnival the other day about the Supper Club and I just got a response back, here it is:

 

The Supper Club is an intimate restaurant that accepts reservations for when the guest chooses to dine for dinner between the hours of 6:00pm-9:30pm. Reservations are made by telephone from the guest's cabin. This is an alternative to eating in the Dining Room or the Lido Restaurant. The Supper Club features prime steaks.

 

The reservation fee is $30 per guest, per entree. This fee includes the wait staffs' gratuity; additional gratuities are optional and may be extended in cash or to the guest's Sail & Sign Account, at the guest's discretion. The reservation fee does not include any beverage that is normally ordered through the bar service such as wine, liquor, soda and bottled water.

 

There is nightly entertainment during dinner such as a cabaret singer or duet along with a large dance floor. There is also a cooking display area where guests can watch the chefs prepare their culinary masterpieces. The dress code requires that men wear jackets on the formal nights of the cruise.

 

Maybe this will clear up some questions people have about the Supper Club.

Not to be contrary, but we have visited the supper club on every cruise we have been on and almost everyone was dressed as if it was formal night. Even on non fromal nights.

 

Same here:)

 

I have never seen anyone in the supper club in "resort casual" wear, everyone is very nicely dressed up.

Thank you for posting this. I was thinking it would be the same attire on formal night as the rest of the ship and this confirms it. My hubby and I will be going to The Point on our 1st anniversary, June 2, which happens to be formal night :) I'm very excited, as the food in the supper club on the Valor was excellent!

I will for sure be wearing "resort casual". I've been to some very exquisit resteraunts in the houston area. I have never seen anyone wearing formal wear unless they just came from prom night. I have no problem following the rules, I just will not be in the dinning room or the Pointe on formal night. There are plenty of other options that I enjoy. I just don't enjoy dressing up on vacation.
